OK, in the space of five minutes, I already got two people who knew that
an antimacassar is a cover used to protect the back and arms of furniture.
In fact, they even knew what macassar was (a kind of hair oil men used to
use, which I hadn't known, and hadn't been in the dictionary.
So, let's go straight on to number two: hebdomadal. Anyone?
