Hi, Tweeters,

The easiest way to remember the supercilium means eyebrow is to merely look
at the word. "Supercilious" means to act superior to everyone else. One way to
do that is to raise an eyebrow in that condescending, patronizing way, with
the feeling of mild amusement at the peasants far below you doing doltish
things.

It's that look one's teenager gives you when you tell him (or her) that at one
time, you wore bell bottoms and stacked shoes because they were
"cool".............
(please excuse me while I go change into something sensible, like sweat pants
and bunny slippers....)
