A SLICE

One Word: Effervescence. Say it. Say it again. Isn't it a fun word to say? Effervescence. I recently read it off the label of a wine bottle. As the level of wine became lower in the bottle, it became even more to say.

ef⋅fer⋅vesce

  –verb (used without object), -vesced, -vesc⋅ing.

1.	to give off bubbles of gas, as fermenting liquors.

2.	to issue forth in bubbles.

3.	to show enthusiasm, excitement, liveliness, etc.: The parents effervesced with pride over their new baby.

Effervescence. Just verbalizing the word makes my mouth feel all bubbly and enthusiastic.
