77 – Peridot Konadu-Ntansah

BIO:
My name has unique French origins so it’s not really surprising that my favorite phrase from Hannu Rajaniemi’s book: “Bezprizorni we call them” Bezprizorni is the word people of the then USSR called orphans. I once touched a crocodile and this reminds me of how brave I can be when I put my mind to it. And if given the chance, the word I will create is “Minacurated” and this is the breakdown – “minate” is the Italian word for undermined, and curated means chosen carefully. Therefore, minacurated means stepped on a couple of times and got back up to become the chosen one. I’ll be waiting on Merriam Webster to add my word to its dictionary but until then, I’ll enjoy reading large books and learning new words for the Bee.
