Word of the Day - A

To expand my own vocabulary, I thought it might be fun to highlight a word of the day. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to use each word in a sentence. The challenge is to do so without looking up the meaning of the word. Have fun with it... I'll share the meaning of word soon enough.

Today, in honor of the letter A, the word of the day is...

Autochthonous

Can't wait to see what you come up with.
