cord
cord noun a two-foot cotton cord: string, thread, thong, lace, ribbon, strap, tape, tie, line, rope, cable, wire, ligature; twine, yarn; braid, braiding; elastic, bungee (cord ).
cordial
cordial adjective a cordial welcome: friendly, warm, genial, affable, amiable, pleasant, fond, affectionate, warmhearted, good-natured, gracious, hospitable, welcoming, hearty. ▶noun fruit cordial: liqueur, drink. WORD NOTE cordial Although the primary meaning of cordial is "warm and friendly, " in literary writing it is very often used to mean "strongly felt "—so much so that cordial dislike, which originally must have been a mostly clever play on the tension between cordial as "friendly " and dislike, is in danger of becoming a fossilized phrase. If you find yourself writing cordial dislike or cordial loathing, you may want to consider whether the loathing is really heartfelt, or whether the feeling and the phrase are both halfhearted. — EM Conversational, opinionated, and idiomatic, these Word Notes are an opportunity to see a working writer's perspective on a particular word or usage.
