Today’s word is voluntary

Today’s word is “voluntary,” which came into Middle English from Latin, and refers to doing something out of choice and free will. I must be willing — I’m guessing that’s the multiverse’s reminder to me today.

I would prefer today’s word to be “wallydraigle,” Scottish for “a feeble, imperfectly developed, or slovenly creature.” Thus sayeth Webster’s, and I believe them.
