This week's theme: There is a word for it.

paraph (PAR-uhf, puh-RAF) noun

   A flourish at the end of a signature, originally as a precaution
   against forgery.

[Via French and Latin from Greek paragraphos (a line showing a break
in sense or a change of speakers), from para- (beside) + graphein (write).
Ultimately from the Indo-European root gerbh- (to scratch), which also
gave us crab, crayfish, carve, crawl, grammar, anagram, program, and
graphite.]

  "This was a considerable feat in that he had recognised not only the
   initial upon the bedcloth, but its unique paraph in one corner."

Ever wonder why we don't just talk, we chew the fat? Derivation, a hilarious
game about word and phrase origins. A great gift! http://entspire.com

what they had seen. -Louis L'Amour, novelist (1908-1988)
