APHAERESIS
1) leaving off the beginning of a word, used often by poets and hillbillies
- example: 'coon for racoon, 'nuf for enough, 'gain for again, 'mongst for amongst
2) extracting part of the blood from a sample and using it for something and putting the rest back in. Not sure what that's used for, but probably good to know.
FYI!
Lol!!! :)) How the do you PRONOUNCE that?! Hm .. Could it be that you leave off the beginning of the word??? ;)
