Wacky Word Wednesday: Frentic vs. Frantic

THERE IS A DIFFERENCE! I insist on a difference. But the question is, what is it?

Well. thesaurus.com informs us that the difference is a matter of physical versus mental being.

Frentic: physical state -- crazed, wild, bombastic behavior

Frantic: mental state -- agitation and dementia and whatnot

[note: my definitions, not theirs ... well, theirs, but super paraphrased]
