    i cant believe there's a word in greek for a person who speaks 666 languages. amazing.

    WORDS: how about onamatopoeia - words that sounds like what they describe, or better yet, etymologist - a person who studies words.

    hey here's an idea: how about all the flatulent people who write here have to use the word of the day or a form of it in every post.
    After all, what good's a word of the day if you're not going to use it?

    Has automagically been here yet?.... it isn't in my dictionary(Oxford Concise 1999) I'm sure it's a potential candidate. I just read it for the first time today, well maybe the second or third time but it was the first time that it reminded me of this thread......how far back does this word originate from anyone?
