Wørd of the week - schizothemia
by Robert on Nov.26, 2006, under Wörd of the week
After a bit of a break, Wørd of the week returns, with a word that could have been crafted just for me:
Schizothemia
from. Gk schizo-, from schizein, to split + thema, theme]
A digression by means of a long reminiscence;
repeated interruptions of a conversation by the speaker
introducing other topics.
(not to be confused with schizothymia)
