plage \PLAHZH\ - 1. the beach of a seaside resort 2. a bright region on the sun caused by the light emitted by clouds of calcium or hydrogen and often associated with a sunspot
Lots of new (to me) WsOTD from the Merriam-Webster site lately. I love it! And a related one as a bonus:
li·do \LEE-doe\ - a fashionable beach resort
And one from the dictionary devil that makes sense but I'd never heard:
lancinating \LAN(T)-si-,nay-ting\ - characterized by piercing or stabbing sensations
