Episode: Rubicund
Description: Rubicund is an adjective that means having a red complexion.
The Latin word rubere (roo BEAR ay) means ‘be red.’ Our word of the day is often used to describe someone’s complexion, as in: Shelly began to blush when we looked at all those high school pictures of her. Seeing all those awful hairstyles is worth it just to watch her face go all rubicund.
