Today’s word of the day is: Equilibrist meaning
Equilibrist
Equilibrist means a performer who is skilled at balancing in unusual positions and hazardous movements, as a tightrope walker in a circus.
Pronunciation: [ih-kwil-uh-brist]
Equilibrist comes by way of French from Latin aequilībrium, “equilibrium,” which is formed from aequus, “equal,” and lībra, “balance.” Though aequus is of unknown origin, lībra may be distantly related to English liter. Equilibrist was first recorded in English in the 1750s.
Example: The equilibrists performed cartwheels on the narrow beam suspended in the air.
