Strange, I looked up this word about 2 minutes before I signed on to Wordie this morning. MW3 says that it was often pronounced cham- rather than sham- in its floruit.

According to WordNet it's 'the solid part of the Earth's surface'. I hope it's extensive.

I lived there for a couple years, and it is indeed quite level.

Is the town level, though? What about extensive... is it extensive too?
