Interesting or unique words..

Postby Druxcian » Tue Oct 23, 2012 8:05 pm

I feel kind of awkward for having so many threads on the same board, but I just really like listening to people's thoughts and learning things from them.

So, words that have a strange or interesting meaning and aren't really used in everyday language.

tallowy - fatty or greasy in consistency or/and feeling

archipelago - a collection of small islands in a group or chain

inanition - a mental or spiritual emptiness or void

godspeed - to be brought success or good fortune ; "God speed you"
"Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."
