Word of the Week

Word: Oeuvre


Source: New York Times


How it was used: " As an admirer, mostly, of Mr. Apatow's Oeuvre, I was inclined to believe that 'Drillbit Taylor' was a cheap knockoff, that producer credit Mr. Apatow Receives at the beginning was akin to Rolex insignia on the watch I bought for $20 on Canal Street a while back."


Dictionary Definition:the works of a writer, painter, or the like, taken as a whole.2.any one of the works of a writer, painter, or the like.


My sentence: the oeuvre of the artist Dali is a bit strange and completely amazing.
