So it turns out you're not the only one forgetting things this week, Hope, and I'm also stealing from my homework, too. I've been studying Realism in American Literature and ran across this handy-dandy word, which I'd heard/read before but hadn't ever taken the time to actually look up the definition.
verisimilitude
1. the appearance or semblance of truth; likelihood; probability: The play lacked verisimilitude.
2. something, as an assertion, having merely the appearance of truth.
(from dictionary.com)
Sorry that's all I have today. I'll try to do better next week.
