Vocab Builder

I just rediscovered my book of weird words and thought a couple I found would fit nicely into V-sentences.

Paizogony: love play; petting
Sapid: having a pleasant flavour; having intellectual interest.

"While engaged in paizogony with Vincent D'Onofrio, I discovered how sapid he is - in both senses of the word."

    I love weird words. I get my words for each day's post from "The Superior Person's Second Book of Weird and Wondrous Words" by Peter Bowler. I know I bought the first one, but I can't find it.

    There are so many good insult words in there.

    I love it Val, but with him I make up my own weird words, but they fit the mood. Jean

    It's like having a secret code..I could drop a sentence like that into conversation and be pretty certain no-one would know what I was talking about..unless they work for OED anyway :-)
