Surcease
from Word of the Day · host Word of the Day
Surcease is a noun that refers to relief or consolation. The Latin word cessare (say SAR ay) means ‘stop.’ From this word came the word ‘cease’ and others like it, including our word of the day. Here’s an example: On the car ride, from New Orleans, Phil annoyed us without surcease. By the time we got home, it was great to finally get some relief.
