Confabulate- to chat
Isn't that cracklin' with excitement. I propose people try to find cool and interesting words, simply to expand our limited brain's constraints. Ha, pardon the pleonasm. -mink- ; )

There's a Canadian Comedy troop called "The Vestibules," http://www.thevestibules.com, and they had a skit where they said lots of words that are fun to say. The skit is called "Bulbous Bouffant," and it had such words like "Foible" and "Gaberdine" and "Mukluks" and "Blubber." |

The skit is called "Bulbous Bouffant," and it had such words like "Foible" and "Gaberdine" and "Mukluks" and "Blubber." I've heard that, its hysterical. I've been using most of the words from that for random week. I'm so unoriginal. :oops: quagmire - A difficult or precarious situation; a predicament. I don't know why, but I'm always shocked when I hear/see it used in context. |

Sesquipedalian- using long words
Maukin sounds like a Russian smut magazine. Keep up the good work!

Actually, I thought it meant slut, but apparently it's nothing so practical.

Deipnosophist- one who excels at conversations at the dinner table
For some reason my cheeks spasm when I eat and talk at the same time, like a blender, watch out!
