Word of the Week

liaison (adjective)


Meaning – communication or cooperation between two parties which works well


Example of using it in a sentence: “The teacher works in close liaison with both the parents and the learner.


Spelling Tip – the origin of the word helps us to understand the ‘closeness’ the word hopes to explain as it come 17thcentury cookery French meaning to bind together. However, it does not help us with the spelling. So, we are just going to have to learn it by muscle memory just as the cooks had to bind the ingredients together with our electrical mixers.


li + ai + son


Use the word as many times throughout the week as you can. This can be verbally, in your written work or listen out for other people using it.
