Word of the Day - 12/31/2008

Cachinnate

To cachinnate is to laugh loudly or immoderately.

The crowd cachinnated when Jesus informed them that Jairus' daughter was not dead, but merely asleep. (Matthew 9:24; Mark 5:40)

He said, "Leave; for the girl has not died, but is asleep." And they began laughing at Him. (Matthew 9:24, NASB)
