Apparently this is the longest word for “pretty” or “beautiful.” That‘s a whole lotta syllables 😂🤪 #weirdwordwednesday #weirdwords

Cuilin Oh my, memories!! I learned this word from watching Caillou when my girls were little. 🤦‍♀️ 1mo

Amiable Oh, I‘ve loved this word since I first heard it. This and “mellifluous.” They both sound so lovely. 🥰 1mo
CBee @Cuilin oh goodness - Caillou 😂 I must admit I found that series so annoying 🫣😂 1mo
CBee @Amiable yesss, I love mellifluous too! 1mo
dabbe When you say this one out loud, it does NOT sound beautiful; it's sounds like someone's willed with something putrid! 😂 Fab word. 😍 1mo
Cuilin @CBee oh it‘s shockingly bad. He was so whiny. 1mo
willaful @Cuilin I learned it from Woody Harrelson singing on SNL. “Pretty lady, foxy lady, attractive lady, pulchritudinous lady...“ 1mo
BookmarkTavern What a great word! 1mo
Cuilin @willaful 🤣🤣 1mo
CBee @Cuilin solidarity 😂😂 1mo
CBee @willaful oh man, I might have to look that up - surely there‘s a clip somewhere 👏🏻 1mo

A Locked Tomb read through podcast used this word on the episode I listened to yesterday, and I knew I needed to post it today. Such a good October word.

I took this picture in the Wigan North Western railway station when I was visiting last week! There was a whole alphabet of phrases, and I wish I had had the time to take pictures of all of them!

I decided to keep it light for #weirdwordwednesday. So, instead of trying to explain how socialism and communism are not the same thing (😅), I present the echidna. Because, in this horrible dumpster fire we are currently living in, who doesn‘t want to look at and learn about cute, unique animals? 😁

CBee Look up echidna babies/puggles. You can thank me later 😍 #weirdwords 4mo

I know I‘ve done an interesting color words post before, but I just LOVE unique words for colors. Here are a few, and here‘s an article to read: https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/59328/19-colors-youve-probably-never-heard
Who knew “puke” and “xanadu” were colors? #weirdwords #weirdwordswednesday
