That word always makes me think of "scirocco"

Kugai:
Pizza

Zingoleb:
Ethereal. It's pretty blue. Effluvia has a dash of pink in it that's really lovely. Ephemeral takes on a bit of orange.


I don't like the meaning of effluvia, though. It's an ugly meaning for such a pretty word. The definition of effluvia should switch with that of, say, fecund. Fecund fits that definition better.

If we're not sticking to English words, then another of my favourite words is megszentségteleníthetetlenségeskedéseitekért. It's just fun to say.

Zingoleb:
My favourite German word, at that, is 'Larifari'.

Also, whatever happened to the thorn? The thorn was a good letter, guys. We should bring it back.
