Expanding your vocabulary is something I always try to do, but I have a tendency to forget some of the really cool, unique words I learn through out the days.
So, here's a thread where if you find a cool word or interesting expression, just post it (preferably with a link to its definition and maybe a story that goes along with it) and see how much we all learn
I'll go first:
Anathema: a detested and cursed person or thing. (Found it browsing the Marvel Comics wiki site )
Mudita: A sympathetic joy, one received from seeing others succeed or be happy. Antonym of schadenfreude. (Found it browsing Reddit, oddly enough!)
