The lovely Literate Kitten has tagged me with the letter meme…and I get "P"! So, what better chance to do a massive Word-hoard? Yes, yes, I know I'm supposed to come up with 10 words that start with P and say something interesting or clever about each of them, but I think these words speak for themselves...
pysmatic: pertaining to questioning; always asking questions
persiflage: a jeering ridicule; idle talk, nonsense, jeering
pitchkettled: puzzled
pygophilous: buttock-loving
pudendous: fit or proper to be ashamed of; disgraceful; shameful
palinoia: compulsive repetition of an act until it's perfect
paralian: someone who lives by the sea
periapt: an amulet worn as protection from disease or harm
philtrum: the vertical groove dividing the upper lip
poniard: a thin dagger
If you want to play, comment here and I'll give you a letter!
I'd never heard the word "pitchkettled" before. Love it!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it fantastic? It reminds me of another great word for puzzled - "blutterbunged"!
