bouquiner

in Learning French, Reading and writing, Word-o-phile

I think it’s funny that just after reading this article, by a book-collecting professor, I read today’s French-Word-A-Day:

bouquiner (boo-kee-nay) verb
1. to hunt after, to collect, old books
2. (informal) to read

I really need to read more after work, and I definitely should start studying French again, but I’m always tired and the TV’s so distracting. Sigh.
