Today’s “Word of the Day” is shroud and it is a verb meaning “cover or hide something; conceal, envelop, veil, screen, cloak, curtain, obscure”.
Example Sentence: Periods are normal, but continue to be shrouded by shame, stigma and discrimination. Consequently, people face barriers in getting accurate information about periods and related products, using toilets, and seeking help when needed.

However, the lived experiences of many urban dwellers show otherwise.
