Word of the Day

chimerical [ki-mer-uh-kuhl/ kahy-meer-uh-kuhl l
adjective
1. unreal; imaginary; visionary
2. wildly fanciful; highly unrealistic

EX. I admire Rummy the Rhino's dreams of reaching unicorn-like perfection but, alas, was fully aware of how chimerical his dream was. A rhino can no more become a unicorn than I could become a wizard.
