Word of the Day – 27th February

Today our word of the day is “rheumatism”.

Oisín found it in his book “The Amazing Story of Adolphus Tips” byMichael Morpurgo. The sentence was “Mum says it’s because of his rheumatism -it gets worse in damp weather.”

Rhuematism means to have a pain in your joints or muscles or even on the bone. It’s like arthritis and it must be very sore.
