Wednesday Word of the Week on beBee: WWW.beBee

In English: (In Spanish below.)

I have a hive called, “What words mean to me.” 

I would like to add the following feature to this hive; every Wednesday, I will post the word(s) of the week. This will be made up of what I receive in my inbox messages from you by Monday. This invitation is going out on beBee in as many languages as possible and so the word or words will be in the language of origin. I would ask that we all use the same 2-part format: …defined as and What this word means to me. 

For example, I will start us off with the word, affinity.

Affinity is defined as:
1. A spontaneous or natural liking or sympathy for someone or something.
2. A similarity of characteristics suggesting a relationship, especially a resemblance in structure between animals, plants, or languages.
3. The degree to which a substance tends to combine with another.
What this word means to me.
As an active member of beBee, the word affinity has been introduced into my life as I had never had the opportunity to use it before. Now I feel like I experience affinity, I am connecting spontaneously with a number of people and their ideas. I feel that I am relating in a meaningful way with others. And increasingly more now, I have been combining my writing and sharing with learning and meeting.

My Call To Action is my invitation. I invite you to send me a word that holds a meaning for you.

In Spanish:

Tengo una colmena llamada, “What words mean to me”.

Cada Miércoles, publicaré la/s palabra/s de la semana. Será hecho a partir de todos los mensajes privados que reciba antes de cada Lunes. Esta invitación la compartiremos fuera de beBee en tantos idiomas como sea posible, así que la/s palabra/s, serán publicadas en el idioma de origen. Os pediría que todos nosotros usemos el mismo formato de dos partes: la primera parte la palabra, y la segunda parte lo que la palabra significa para mí.

For example, I will start us off with the word, affinity.
La primera parte la palabra: Affinity is defined as:
1. A spontaneous or natural liking or sympathy for someone or something.
2. A similarity of characteristics suggesting a relationship, especially a resemblance in structure between animals, plants, or languages.
3. The degree to which a substance tends to combine with another.
Que la palabra significa para mí. What this word means to me.
