New Words

Over the past few weeks I have heard a few new words that I have now added to my vocabulary. But not only that I have also heard words that I have heard almost everyday of my life so I figured that since I know them, everyone would know them. But I have heard people much older then I in the past few days stumble over little words. Some long words, but nothing that cant be sounded out. Anyway, where this is all leading me to is...I am going to post some of my favorite words and some new words that I have heard over the past few weeks. Also some old words that I think people should either PRACTICE on or just know. Ok here it goes:

  1. Serendipity - The faculty of making fortunate discoveries by accident.
  2. Epiphany - A sudden manifestation of the essence or meaning of something.
  3. Pretentious - Making or marked by an extravagant outward show; ostentatious
  4. Conceited - Holding or characterized by an unduly high opinion of oneself; vain.
  5. Infatuated - To inspire with unreasoning love or attachment.
  6. Precarious - Dangerously lacking in security or stability.
  7. Adoration - Profound love or regard.
  8. Imperial - Having supreme authority
  9. Ruminating - To reflect on something over and over.
  10. Quid Pro Quo - To give or do something for someone in exchange for something.

There are many more words that I enjoy saying but I can see where this would get quite boring to read. Hope you enjoy those. Have a grrrrrrrrreat day. Adios.
