Mahatma Chani, Ten Diamonds, (other wordophiles on RSN?) Coming Soon! Special Event! DEFINE-A-THON 2007! Thursday, April 19 The Harvard Book Store, The Brattle Film Foundation and Houghton Mifflin present DEFINE-A-THON 2007! Doors at 7:30pm Event begins at 8:00pm Join the DEFINE-A-THON phenomenon! The DEFINE-A-THON is a game of vocabulary strength that "ups the ante" on word-based competition. Developed by the editors of the American Heritage Dictionary, this quick-paced game takes participants beyond the spelling bee. Why? Because the ability to spell a word doesn't necessarily mean that you know how to USE the word. American Heritage Dictionary Senior Editor Steve Kleinedler will host the game. He'll give each contestant a definition, followed by several possible answers. The contestant must choose the correct one. As the competition progresses, the degree of difficulty increases until two contestants are left. These two players will enter the final round with new rules and higher stakes. Pit your knowledge of English against that of your friends and colleagues - the DEFINE-A-THON will separate the vocabulary geniuses from the vocabulary wannabees. Winner will receive an American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition and the two runner ups will receive American Heritage College Dictionaries. Winners will also receive prizes from Harvard Bookstore and the Brattle. $5 to attend / $5 to participate Advance tickets and pre-registration available soon at brattlefilm.org! Harvard Book Store
