Mellifluous is also a pleasant word to say! I love that the Latin translates almost literally to 'flows like honey' 🍯
Pronounced TUR-Shuh in Irish or TOOR-shuh in Scottish I think many of us are experiencing this in a deep way.
The antidote is to find joy, gratitude, etc.
My daughter sent me this link today and it was the perfect antidote. President Obama telling the story of one woman‘s voice energizing him, a room and a movement. Fire it up! Ready to go!

pickEntertaining and educating. If, like me, you've always wanted to know about the 'secret' language spoken in the emergency department of a hospital, or by cricket players, or among sound engineers, or... This book is for you.

pickFun!
I did this in five word bursts, sometimes multiple a day, rather than one a day to keep up with library loans period, but it was still marvelously diverting rather than overwhelming. I can't say I'll remember every word I learned about but I always enjoy etymological entertainment. 1/?
Try THAT one on today! 👀🫣
I don't remember "I F'd your mom" dating back to Shakespeare coming up in English class. ? Probably why we did Hamlet instead of Titus Andronicus. Sidebar: Serious cognitive dissonance around seeing 'your mum' - UK version seems way more charming than North American 'yo mama'.
