- Mervyn,
-
- I am familiar with bith the smidgen and the smidge, as well as the tad on the
- small side [--should be "both" up there], and can easily visualize the "whole
- bunch," the mountain, the passle (passel?), pile, and heap. But for several
- months now I have been increasingly curious about the size of a wodge. Can
- you enlighten me?
-
- Thanks, and happy holidays to all!
