![]() ![]() That is why I have chosen to see my accident not as an unfortunate mishap or evidence of spectacular klutzery, but rather the Universe hearing my wishes and creating for me the time and space to write.įour years before that, Mike Achim used it in his article published on Fevered Mutterings in November 2010. In an article published on Wanderlust Lust in November 2014, Kristin Brumm also used it in an affectionate way in this sentence. On the contrary, Rickert sees klutzery as “something to be cultivated for itself,” arguing that it is “the very ground of style, of composition, and development.” (English) published in April 2016 on the Augmented Writing website, the writer included the word in this passage. The word is being found more and more often in daily conversations and in books and magazines, and some even go as far as to use the word in a mildly affectionate way. A person who is described as a klutz is either very clumsy or stupid and socially inept. The word klutz is from the German word klotz which means boor or a clod, and that word comes from Middle High German and literally means a block or ball. Just as one who is an archer practices archery, someone who is clumsy is involved in klutzery. ![]()
