Word of the Week: Anachronism

This week’s word is anachronism which is something that is out of place with respect to a time period. Like a car in the background of a movie about Roman gladiators. Something that is conspicuously old-fashioned can also be described as an anachronism.

Anachronism is a great word to use in a story where time travel might be part of the plot.
