Today’s “Word of the Day” is “dichotomy” and it is a noun meaning “a division/separation/partition of something (ideas, things, groups, or etc.) into two parts that are either entirely different from each other or completely opposite to each other; duality, polarity“.
Example Sentence: The traditional dichotomy of rural and urban, and the accordingly mandated governance structure, seems inadequate to understand and act upon poverty, undernourishment, education, health, environmental management or even development. For, between the two extremes lies an intermediate settlement formation where rural and urban functions coexist without distinguishable boundaries.
This word is present in Reimagining the urban-rural dichotomy and click here to read it.
