Words!!!!!!!!!!!

15 Years Ago


We are writers and thus we work in the field of words.  Unfortunately it seems that a lot of people now days have a very small vocabulary.  So this is what this thread is all about.  Whenever you discover a new word(s) please post them here with the definition!

One of my favorite words:

facetiously:  not seriously as in  "I meant that facetiously"

This word also has the distinction of being the only word in the English language that contains all the vowels (and "sometimes y") in their proper order.
