#word appreciation

[ilena-hani-alaria]

Feral is my new favourite word. There's no synonym that really describes unhinged no-holds-barred foaming-at-the-mouth need quite so clearly. I've used it approximately fourteen times in ten different places today and I meant it every time

god, Symposium is such a good word, i wish i could use it more.

[kedamono-dreams]

avulsion is such a good word. sounds similar to revulsion, but means to tear flesh viciously and pop joints from sockets. easy winner, i put this one up by "tomography" on my list of good words

What are your favorite 3 words in the English language that you think are under appreciated?

Hey anon!

My first thought was supercalafragalisticexpialadocious. Buuuuuut I'll stay real. 😁

Just being a brat. Lol

You're gonna make me choose 3??? So many fantastic words. In this moment, I'll go with:

Fuck- I don't even use it that much myself, but it can mean so many things if said in so many ways.

Fantastical- Idk why, I love to say it.

Love- people throw it around so mindlessly. Also, it can mean so many things. There are so many kinds of love, and so many ways to show it. Everyday people use it and don't really mean it, as their actions don't back it up.

Such a fantastic question! Thank you! 💜

i love words !!!

[mildswearingat4am]

Quixotic is a nice word and I like it very much

I love how exhausted has a sigh in the middle of the word. It’s so satisfying to lean your head against something and close your eyes like you’re falling asleep and mumble aloud to no one in particular, “I’m exhausted”
