Interstitial 22: Viridescent

Tree trunks and branches lit up in Christmas green at night.

Did you know language is not so different from math? The adding and subtracting of word elements create formulas for new meaning.

Virid + -escent. Both are from Latin, the former meaning green and the latter a suffix for "becoming." Combined, viridescent means "greenish" or "becoming green."
