Current Events > CE Word of the day - encourage

(+) Yeah! (+)

I want to post more often, so I plan to scan CE topics to find an interesting word. Selection of the word of the day is sometimes limited, so mention me with @chaoyun2k if you see a word on CE that might make a good word for the word of the day.
If you want to post in this topic, try to use the word of the day in a sentence.

Today's word is encourage.
