"Insouciance", I like the way it sounds.
I used to want a tattoo of "IGNOBLE" - those were younger and dumber days. I still like the word though.
Have you heard of Charles Harrington Elster? He's probably best known for his 'Verbal Advantage' stuff. I like him for, "the Big Book of Beastly Mispronunciations".
I like words too.
ah, we have a wake up call to this quiet blog.
I haven't heard of Charles Harrington Elster. I checked out this website today. his books sound pretty interesting. Thanks for the recommandation. I wish his website would provide features such as a word a day or daily quotes by him. or Ill just have to look up the book Verbal Advantage . I don't know about "the Big Book of Beastly Mispronunciations" words are for communications. if everyone pronouces a certain word wrong every day. Then the wrong way will become the right way. isn't it?
