It seems to fill a niche.”īBC Culture has picked out 26 of the most delightful terms from The Cabinet of Linguistic Curiosities: our alphabet of obscure words is below.Īll definitions below taken from The Cabinet of Linguistic Curiosities, published by Elliott & ThompsonĪgerasia (pronounced ‘adge-uh-ray-zee-ah’)Ī more youthful appearance than one’s true age (derived from a Greek word for ‘eternal youth’).īased on the same template as ‘light-year’, one ‘beard-second’ is the approximate length a man’s beard hair grows in one second: five nanometres. “On the one hand, I’m pulling these words out of obscurity and rescuing them from the murkier corners of the dictionary – then through Twitter, which is one of the most modern things going, at the opposite end of the dictionary from the 19th-Century scholars, people are using them. His word posts offer a kind of antidote to social media. And he includes imagined science, with a word introduced in 1890 to foretell a futuristic world where messages could be sent by radio – an ‘aerogram’. Jones also collects made-up terms, such as ‘beaglepuss’ – the name for those novelty glasses with a fake nose, eyebrows and moustache attached (a nonsense word invented by the company selling them). ‘Mamamouchi’ is a delight to say out loud, and has an equally delectable meaning: ‘someone who believes themselves more important than they really are’. “I love finding words that are just beautiful as well as strange,” says Jones. ![]() There are words that have an onomatopoeic appeal, like ‘jingle-boy’- ‘a rich man’, or someone who has enough coins in their pocket to jingle as they walk. It’s that idea of something being itchy.” “A lot of them are dialect – I found one, ‘shivviness’, in an English dialect dictionary it means ‘the uncomfortable feeling of wearing new underwear’ and comes from ‘shiv’, which is an old Yorkshire dialect word for a splinter or a loose thread. The fact that anyone thought to come up with that word is great – it’s something that everybody needs,” says Jones. “I like finding words that fill in a gap – there’s one called ‘frowst’ – it’s an old 19th-Century schoolboy slang word for ‘extra time spent in bed on a Sunday’. “I’m taking words from obscure English dictionaries, but also slang dictionaries and dialect dictionaries – there are all these goldmines of language that never really get tapped into, so anything that puts that out to a wider audience has got to be good.” “I spend my days piling through books like The Language of American Popular Entertainment and pulling out words I find interesting,” he says. Since then, Jones has made it his mission to rescue unused expressions from extinction. “I got a big illustrated kids’ dictionary when I was eight or nine – I got it for Christmas off my grandparents – I just sat and read it cover to cover, like you would a normal book. “I’ve been obsessed with language ever since I was a kid,” he tells BBC Culture. For Jones, who blogs and tweets under the name Haggard Hawks, it has been a lifetime of word geekery. In September, academics in Britain uncovered 30 words ‘lost’ from the English language: researchers spent three months looking through old dictionaries to find them, in the hope they could bring the words back into modern conversations. While it offers titillation for the curious mind, it also serves a more noble purpose – retrieving words from languishing unread and unspoken. It has a different phrase for every day of the year (including 29 February) – with entries ranging from ‘ambilaevous’, or ‘equally clumsy in both hands’, to ‘stirrup-cup’, ‘one last drink before a departure’. Now, Paul Anthony Jones has compiled 366 ‘forgotten words’ in his new book The Cabinet of Linguistic Curiosities. ![]()

You even get variants of some of the bosses to keep things interesting, and again, this often feeds back into the evolving story. The enemies and bosses themselves are kind of a joy to fight. It’s all just very clever, and you can even build your relationship with each of the characters you meet to learn more about both them and yourself. You get special rewards for using each of these weapons and beating the bosses as you make your way up to the surface, and each of those rewards unlocks some other kind of permanent progression. My personal favourite is Malphon, a pair of gloves that lets you punch and Flash Kick your way through everything. If that sounds a little vanilla to you though, you could always go for the Exagryph, which is basically a machine gun. It helps that each of the weapons also feels completely different too. Ares, the one true god of war, gets two effects, one called Doom which does heavy damage a short while after you’ve hit something, and the other called a Blade Rift, which basically summons spinning swords in set places.īecause of this, your build is going to be absurdly fluid and will be vastly different from run to run. Zeus, for example, is all about lightning. While each of the gods offers basic improvements to your stats, they also specialise in some kind of status effect or alteration. You see, outside of the permanent upgrades you can unlock, the vast majority of your power-ups come in the form of boons offered to you by the gods of Olympus.

Since IDrive does offer optional end-to-end encryption, we decided to investigate further.

Why is this such a common theme with Varvatos fragrances, that I’ve tried? My skin is pretty good at keeping fragrances on it, for a max time, but this brand’s colognes just evaporate it seems. Then, it’s essentially gone from the skin. A short time later and the ability to project is non-existent. The sillage at the start, is light to moderate, but at least you know it’s there. This cologne doesn’t last long at all…which is insanely disappointing because I like it. Secondly, it loses whatever strength it may have had really quickly. First, while it is light and airy, it’s also pretty weak and people have to be pretty close to you in order to detect it (or you have to spray a ton of it). While this scent smells great, it has two distinct problems. After an hour or two, it’s pretty much an orange and neroli blend, which I have to press my nose against the skin to really pick up on. I want to write more about the dry down and the other notes that came out of the fragrance as it wore on but I honestly didn’t get the chance. The initial citrus blast is gradually taken down a notch by the underlying floral notes, and the light spiciness. ![]() I get orange blossom, neroli, and ginger, mostly. These top notes are joined by herbal ingredients and floral notes. However, this one is much more of a citrus fragrance than a citrus aquatic.

This is the type of fragrance that will have women wanting to draw closer to get a whiff. It is warm and inviting and definitely one that has a bit of sexiness to it. The first thing that I note about this cologne is how light and airy of a fragrance it is.
