“UP FOR SOME FUN?”

Consider the following:

One word in the English language that can be a noun, verb, adjective,

adverb and preposition. This two-letter word in English has more meanings

than any other two-letter word, and that word is 'UP.' It's easy to

understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when

we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP? At a meeting, why does

a topic come UP? Why do we speak UP, and why are the officers UP for

election. Why is it UP to the secretary to write UP a report? We

call UP our friends, brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver,

warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen. We lock UP the house

and fix UP the old car. At other times, this little word has real special

meaning. People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an

appetite, and think UP excuses. To be dressed is one thing but to be

dressed UP is special. And this UP is confusing: A drain must be

opened UP because it is stopped UP. We open UP a store in the

morning but we close it UP at night. We seem to be pretty

mixed UP about UP!

To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP, look UP the

word UP in the dictionary. In a desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost

1/4 of the page and can add UP to about thirty definitions. If you

are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is

used. It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give UP, you may

wind UP with a hundred or more. When it threatens to rain, we say it is

clouding UP. When the sun comes out, we say it is clearing UP. When it

rains, the earth soaks it UP. When it does not rain for awhile, things

dry UP. One could go on and on, but I'll wrap it UP, for now . . my space

is UP!

Oh . . . one more thing: What is the first thing you do in the morning and

the last thing you do at night

U

P

Now I'll shut UP!
