in reply to a message by Jaime
I don't know about the name, but the verruca is definitely a type of wart!

Well, knowing the character, that certainly sounds correct. Guess that one's out. :)

In the book, Willy Wonka makes a rude comment about the name "veruca" sounding like the name of a wart, and I was one of those weird children who went straight to a dictionary and looked it up :-D. I'm amazed though that some people who read the book missed the comment and named their daughters that anyway! I'm so glad you asked someone.

Aren't you the intellectual one? Places a "Dictionary Queen" party hat on Chrisell's head. I never look things up, I just yell for whoever is nearby and ask them what it means. Usually they don't know either though, so your method is much more effective(correct use?), I'm sure. I'm pathetic.
