Questions

What is the word of the day for Friday, 13 March 2026?

binocular — "relating to both eyes".

How is the AltF Lexicon word of the day chosen?

From a fixed rotation of 366 words, one for every day of a leap year. A date is converted to its position in the year — Friday, 13 March 2026 is day 72 — and that position selects the word. Because the rule is arithmetic on the date and nothing else, the same day always gives the same word, and every past day still has a page.

Can I see previous words of the day?

Yes. Every day back to the start of the archive has its own dated page, listed on the word-of-the-day hub. Most dictionaries publish word of the day at one address that is overwritten every morning, so yesterday's word is gone; here it is a permanent URL.

How do you pronounce binocular?

binocular has 4 syllables: bi-no-cu-lar. The stress falls on "no". Said plainly: buh-NAH-kyuh-lur. In IPA, /bəˈnɑkjəlɚ/.
