There are certain words that I love to say. Some words just sound good rolling off your tongue. Sometimes I like to feel smart incorporating them into a sentence because people will give you a quizzical look like, "Huh?" when you use it. This is one of those words:

 |

–noun
1. the act or process of amalgamating.
2. the state or result of being amalgamated.
3. a consolidation of two or more corporations.
4. the extraction of precious metals from their ores by treatment with mercury.
