Whenever I encounter one, I find out what it means online and memorize it. Now, I can belt out these words whenever I'm writing a story.

I applaud your agile mind, MikleoKrein! I find that I must toil quite a bit to make a new word part of my working vocabulary. But then again, there are some new words that I like, and those are easier to employ. I find that my writing/reading vocabulary is more extensive than my verbal vocabulary.MikleoKrein wrote: ↑03 Jul 2018, 14:01 I love unfamiliar words, it's a guilty pleasure of mine.
