A logophile is someone who loves ‘words.’ Someone who is afflicted with logorrhea, on the other hand, loves to hear himself speaking ‘words’ and just won’t shut up! An epi logue, on the other hand, contains those ‘words’ written after a novel or play has ended, giving a little more information as to the future lives of the characters.
Many literature students have read Chaucer’s “General Pro logue,” which are those ‘words’ spoken before the main poem begins. A mono logue, on the other hand, is those ‘words’ spoken by one person alone, usually as part of a play or stand-up comedy routine. A cata log is similar in idea, for it contains a thorough listing of ‘words’ which describe items for sale.Ī dia logue consists of the ‘words’ spoken between two people. The captains on Star Trek, whether Kirk or Picard or Janeway, are constantly entering data or ‘words’ into their captain’s log, telling about their journeys through space. The Greek root word log means ‘word,’ and its variant suffix -logy means ‘study (of).’
