I usually think I have a pretty good vocabulary, but more than half of the words in that final game were beyond me...
I seem to remember phone numbers easily and hate Scrabble. |
Same with me, usually good at vocabulary (passive anyway), but didn't know half of them.

Whattaya mean, "no no no?" I'd take "suqs" -- middle eastern bazaars, more than one of them. But then I do have a vocabulary.
All one needs is an exposure to a large enough dictionary. Oh, and "cwm." Englished sometimes into "coombe." One of English's few borrowings from Welsh. Borrowings from Scots Gaelic are more numerous -- slogan, claymore, galore. |
