My bookish meme for 2026: the Golden Age of Detection (GAD) Mystery Word of the Day. Whenever I find a word that I'm unfamiliar with--or shall we say not absolutely confident I know the exact meaning of, I'm going to actually take time to look it up and share it with mystery-lovers everywhere. 😊
Today's GAD Mystery Word of the Day is Khoregos (noun): wealthy Athenian citizen who financed and organized the training, costumes, and maintenance of the chorus for theatrical productions.
He had recently distinguished himself by offering to be the khoregos for the next Celebration of Dionysos. (Artistotle Detective by Margaret Doody)
