Word to the Wise: Canorous

"Canorous" (Kuh-NOR-us) - from the Latin for "to sing" - means "musical."

Example (as used by Donna R. LaPlante in the Kansas City Star): "I felt a deep contentment listening to the meadowlark's complex melody as he sat on his bragging post calling for a mate, and the soft canorous whistle of the bobwhite as he whistled his name with intermittent lulls."
