Homeric - a podcast by Word of the Day

Homeric is an adjective that means epic or large scale.

According to historians, Homer was a storyteller of Ancient Greece. His poems featured large scale stories of heroic behavior. Homeric is an adjective to describe tales of a similar nature.

My dad’s stories about his adventures walking home from school and encountering stray dogs had an almost Homeric quality to them. He even claimed to have been chased home by a German Sheppard that he swore had the ability to fly.
