Hey there, English learners! Welcome to 'Word of the Day.' Today's word is 'Serendipity' - finding something good by chance. It's a six-syllable word, pronounced suh-ren-dip-i-tee. For example, meeting an old friend unexpectedly at the airport is a serendipitous moment. Remember, synonyms include 'luck' and 'chance.' It originates from a fairy tale called 'The Three Princes of Serendip.' Share your serendipitous moments with us! Until next time, happy learning!https://www.italki.com/i/reft/aBEb0a/aBEb0a/english?hl=en&utm_source=copy_link&utm_medium=share_teacher
