This word popped into my head—I don‘t know why. However, I‘ve always found it a word whose sound is expressive of its action! #WeirdWords #WeirdWordWednesday

CBee As a former dancer, I love this 💚 15h

Another example of a word that doesn‘t look or sound like what you think it should mean. If someone said this to me and I didn‘t know the word, I might respond with “bless you” or “gesundheit” 😂😂 #weirdwords #weirdwordwednesday

Born.A.Reader I do that too!! Say bless you or something after a weird/long word 😂 1d
dabbe It would be fun to say something like “I fescued in the fescue!“ 🤣💚🤣 1d

CatLass007 Great word! I didn‘t know what it meant but I don‘t think it sounds like anything in particular. I usually am able to get the gist of a word from the context in which it is used, and if I‘m interested in learning more, I‘ll look it up. But gesundheit does seem like a great response to some words. 1d
CatLass007 Thank you so much for hosting this and #TBRTarot! 1d
CBee @dabbe now, if anyone ever says there isn‘t a word that rhymes with rescue, we can prove them wrong 😂 “A dramatic rescue in the fescue” 😁🤓 1d
CBee @CatLass007 💚💚💚 1d
CBee @Born.A.Reader 😂😂😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 1d
dabbe @CBee ... and we didn't even have a clue or cue! 😍 1d
Daisey Growing up on a farm raising livestock and cutting our own hay, this is an incredibly common word. Always interesting to see words from another perspective. 1d
CBee @dabbe 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💚💚💚 24h
CBee @Daisey definitely! 24h

Housewife & mother, Kathleen, opts for a day at the apartment pool on a Sunday the beginning of November. While rebuffing her family's pleas to leave & resume her socially assigned gender roles, she is listening to news updates of the launch of the Soviet spacecraft Sputnik 2. The live passenger of Sputnik? The dog, Laika
About halfway through this one and really liking it.

Has my day been absolutely full of things that need doing, and have I enjoyed being around and helping the people I love? Yes.

Am I looking forward to tomorrow when nothing is expected or needed of me, and I can bury myself in blankets and books? Also yes.

Aims42 Oooo, I love this word!! 😌 3w
TimEW I want to use this word. Could I say “I am practicing fjaka today” or “I love fjaka”? I am saying it over and over again, as my new word of the day. 😊🙏 3w
BookmarkTavern @TimEW From what I read, the most common usage seems to be along the lines of “I am on fjaka” or “someone is in fjaka”. (edited) 3w
dabbe 🩶🩵🤍 3w
TimEW @BookmarkTavern Would it be like saying “I‘m on a retreat or vacation” taking in nature or meditating. 3w
BookmarkTavern @TimEW That sounds right to me! 😁 3w

Apparently today is an S word day 🤷‍♀️ Can I add “shitstorm?” Asking for a friend….. 😂😂🤪🤪 #weirdwordwednesday #weirdwords

CatLass007 Shitstorm needs no definition! Soporific and sacrosanct are wonderful words! (edited) 3w
BookmarkTavern I love soporific so much! 💤💤💤 3w

dabbe Not to be confused with sophomoric! I loved teasing my sophomores with that one--especially when they're behavior warranted it! 💚🩶♥️ 3w
peanutnine Oh I love the word soporific! It's one that I feel conveys its meaning through its sound 3w

I like this image because it provides a veritable cascade of ghoulish words! And there is NEVER a wrong time for the macabre—NEVER! Actually, it is quite de rigueur to celebrate our more ethereal friends at Christmas—quite a number of classical authors produced Christmas ghost stories! It was a Victorian tradition. 🎄🎅🎁👻

This would have been more appropriate for October, but my mind is not linear and I mean wasn‘t October like a day or two ago? 🤪🤪😂😂 We‘ve had a handful of interesting things happen around our house recently and my husband really wants it to be a poltergeist 😂 As long as it‘s a nice ghost, I‘m cool. #weirdwords #weirdwordwednesday
