Wondrous Words Wednesday is a weekly meme from Bermuda Onion where we share new (to us) words that we’ve encountered in our reading. If you want to play along, grab the button, and write a post.
My word this week is from The Journeys of John and Julia in Chapter One by aurelia.
ersatz: adj. made or used as a substitute, typically an inferior one, for something else.
“However, spatial proximity was only the obvious reason for his close relationship with this ersatz grandfather.”

What words did you encounter this week?
