Inspired by Gene's usage of 'opprobrium' in the random picture thread.
I'd never come across that word before & very good it is to.
So what words that aren't used very often are you particularly fond of? Or maybe seldom used words that you don't like at all?
I've always liked discombobulated, both because it sounds brilliant & also because you can actually use it conversation occasionally, I find it the perfect word to describe how I feel when halfway recovered from a bad hangover.
