To Secrete

"Secrete" is the Yahoo word of the day. I am a scientist, so that probably automatically implies that I am not a master of the English language (you could just read my blog to figure that out as well). Yes, I struggled through those infamous list of words to pass my GRE (and I actually did halfway decently on the verbal section back in 1995). But seriously now, do that many people REALLY not know what "secrete" means?

Maybe now that I am a mother "secrete" has just become so commonplace in my life that I don't realize that a normal person does not deal with "secretions" on a daily basis and therefore it is not part of their vocabulary?
