I'm going to insist on pronouncing the third syllable of this great new word as \-tuh-\ instead of \-chuh-\.Although this was the only new word in the busy Triduum and Easter days in which I didn't do more than see what the WOTD was, the etymology of one very familiar word strikes my funny bone. Also, its Name That Synonym answer was new to me, but made perfect sense as soon as I unscrambled it:
moonish \ˈmü-nish\ - influenced by the moon; also : capricious
