BULLY PULPIT

We occasionally still use the old positive meaning of the word "bully"
when congratulating somebody (sincerely or sarcastically) by saying
"Bully for you!" A century ago "bully" meant "good," "great."

That's why Theodore Roosevelt called the American presidency a "bully
pulpit," meaning that it provided him an outstanding platform from which
to preach his ideas. The expression is often misused by writers who
mistakenly think it has something to do with preaching at people in a
bullying way.

Epitaph: Written on death bed (Grave)
Epigram: Short witty poem

Precarious : Not secure & not stable, insecure, unsafe
Precocious : Gained early maturity, Like advanced mental keenness in a child which is surprising for his/her age

AIN'T

"Ain't" has a long and vital history as a substitute for "isn't,"
"aren't" and so on. It was originally formed from a contraction of "am
not" and is still commonly used in that sense. Even though it has been
universally condemned as the classic "mistake" in English, everyone uses
it occasionally as part of a joking phrase or to convey a down-to-earth
quality. But if you always use it instead of the more "proper"
contractions you're sure to be branded as uneducated.

AISLE/ISLE

An aisle is a narrow passageway, especially in a church or store; an
isle is an island. Propose to the person you're stranded on a desert
isle with and maybe you'll march down the aisle together after you're
rescued.
