Summary: | dreadful We, in turn, were amused by the way the people from Mussel Harbour (later, Kingwell after Parson Kingwell) on Long Island used the word "dreadful." Everything with them seemed to be dreadful. "I'm DREAD-ful fond of them polar bars," or " 'Tis a DREAD-ful nice day" or "The weather is a DREAD-ful kind of poor." Things could also be a DREAD-ful kind of good. Even three miles across the harbour at Bordeaux the inhabitants used certain phrases which could cause much merriment at Arnold's Cove.
