    a good Lallans word is platchin. It means really wet, just soaked through. Very onomatopoeic. See also 'droukit'.

    here's a couple of unusual words I like:

    petrichor - the scent that appears after it rains

    sonder - the realization that random passersby have lives as complex, vivid, and nuanced as your own

    pedipalps is such a cute word. maybe that's just because i love spiders, but it makes me think of gentle patting by tiny feets.

  12. Nobody's Home

    Nobody's Home I'm a Greg Coded Tom Girl

    Samantala/ng meaning something akin to 'even so' 'meanwhile' 'whereas' 'on the other hand'

    It just sounds cool, and my classmate was talking to me the other day and I heard it in his sentence and I remembered that I just enjoy the way the word sounds

    Mimic/mimicry. A lovely sound and mouth feel. When I hear or see the word my mind is flooded with memories of childhood games and silly competitions
