Night, Smiley!

 

And I agree, Ayla.

Great list. A new word to me recently that I love is proboscis, although I rarely get to use it.

Night night :)

Some of my favorites: cerulean, vermilion, hypnogogia, salacious, lascivious, alabaster, vast. I also second recalcitrance

 

*bolded my favorites of the list here

My favourite; Callipygous

 

Also perspicacious. And subtle (cause the sutle B that sneaks in there)

 

I LOVE perspicacious. I learned it thanks to Scott Westerfeld, in his Leviathan trilogy (which is SO GOOD).

I think that lollop is quite good. Onomatopoeia, I think :)

Acquiesce needs to be on here

How about, ‘melancholia’ for the ‘m’ list?

 

And, yeah…most of my favourite words have Greek etymologies Th. Science is full of wonderful language. Here are a few of my favourite cool-sounding words of Greek origin…

 

‘euphonia’

‘dysphoria’

‘heliotropic’

”androgyne’

‘tectonic’

‘photovoltaism’

‘Aesthete’ is another.

Bizarre

Blizzard

Intriguing

Lovely

Melancholy

Midnight

Peculiar

Precarious

Precocious

Snooze

Twilight

It's a 3D paralellogram IIRC...
