Wonderful words

Splendid, marvellous, fantastic. All say exactly what they mean imo.
Discombobulated, flummoxed too.
My favourite word for just rolling over the tongue is linoleum. Nothing to do with the floor covering, just the lovely roll of the word.

My OH changes discombobulated to discombombulated because "it's easier to say". 😅

Am loving Tom on IACGMOOH I’m learning some beautiful and new words from him, he is my latest crush ❤️

Drench
Quench

Scunnered - fed up in Scotland

'Happenstance' is another of my favourites.

I too love words and there are some old English words that I think ought to make a comeback. Amongst my favourites are,
Afterblismed meaning pregnant.
Ibobbed meaning insulted, and my favourite, Doomsman a judge or doomsmen, jury.

Snooze, sleepy, relax, gentle.
Waves, breeze.

And flip flops are Jandals in NZ
I like the word we use, when things aren’t straight like a picture on the wall in this part of the country we say it’s ‘on the hur’ I like that one

Babs you've got me silently singing
Roaming in the gloaming on the bonnie banks of Clyde
Roaming in the gloaming with a lassie by my side
When the sun has gone to rest
That's the time that I love best
Oh it's lovely roaming in the gloaming.

Cwtching not catching blasted autochange

Cwtch - In Wales it means cuddle or hug . Catching up on the sofa with someone you love is very soothing

Dimpsey. In Devon it means just getting dark, twilight.

Cuddle.
Cosset.
Puddle.
Loitering and languorous.
I also love the Scottish word gloaming, which refers to the golden sun that occurs at the end of a summer day I believe.

Fantabidosy 😂

Lovely rich words :

I also don't know havening .
Sooth is another good one.
Caress makes me think of warm perfumed skin .
Lick as in lickimg a luscious lolly.
When someone drops a piano on your foot a word ending with ck is definitely the word of choice.

Floozie makes me laugh.
A d thinking of floozies -
I once introduced by a French man as his gonzesse.
It produced smiles and laughter .
I felt a bit embarrassed .
It means bird or chick .
A French friend drew me aside and winked as she said,so you're the bit on the side. "
But I like the word .
It makes me think of Can Can dancers in the Belle Epoch .

We end our yoga class with a practise I had never heard of before - havening.

Now I just have to hear the word to feel soothed.

Caress.

Oh I can feel it now😳

Serendipity. Just take a chance and see what happens.

How could I resist buying a Skoda Yeti?

Tintinnabulation. Excellent word but hard to get into everyday speech.

‘Flounce’ is one I like.

Sounds just what it means.

Flibbertigibbet!
And floozie.
Riff raff, which I read somewhere meant ‘sweepings of rags’ in Anglo-Saxon.
Mellifluous, which I liked even more having learned that ‘meli’ is Greek for honey, so it means ‘honey-flowing’.

I too love words, old and new. I love the word “lush”, it brings to mind all manner of luscious things.

I like other words, because I just like the way they trip off the tongue:-

Lick
Piggy

And lots of words ending with “ck” many of which I cannot put on here!

Not to be too outing, but I chose my teacher training college on the basis that I liked the sound of its name.
