A new dimension has been added to the weekly ‘prompt’ word challenge –
to produce a
Drabble –
an exactly 100 word ‘flasher’ using the word as intelligently as possible.
(**NB: Title not included in word count)
This proves quite a task for some of us… but many truly enjoy this trumpet-call invitation to search our imaginations and lift our pens… AGAIN!
But why the strange title of my collection, you well may ask?
The dictionary meaning of ‘centuplicate’ as a noun, is – a number or quantity increased a hundredfold. And I thought… hmm—sounds about right for this particular process of bringing meaning to a single word – but absolutely only totalling the magical exact 100 words.
Here’s the exact wording from the dictionary—
centuplicate
[ verb sen-too-pli-keyt, -tyoo-; adjective, noun sen-too-pli-kit, -keyt, -tyoo- ]
verb (used with object), cen·tu·pli·cat·ed, cen·tu·pli·cat·ing.
to increase 100 times; centuple
adjective:- a hundredfold.
noun:- a number or quantity increased a hundredfold.
SO HERE WE GO…
