But what the hell is a dentil or a triglyph, Webster? They sound like cheesy made-up terms for equipment or alien species from a cheesy syndicated SF show, not something to do with Roman columns. And I see no mention of how to pronounce this word. I'll bet it rhymes with hockey.


'Tis a pity, but according to the current Merriam-Webster incarnation, this word doesn't exist. I had to seek out ol' Oxford and even that had no definition for it.

Further research indicated that the word appeared once in 2 Corinthians and means 'a sharing, communion, or fellowship'. Which makes a little more sense than what's right below this, wouldn't you think?
