    “Gruntled”! The wonderful opposite of disgruntled

    And “gruntling” is an excellent old-timey word for baby pigs

        Nibling. It’s the gender-neutral form of “niece” or “nephew”. Your sister is your sibling, your niece is your nibling.

        Or sonder. That’s the feeling you get when thinking about the fact that everyone in the world lives a life just as vibrant and complex as your own.

            Suss

            verb. To suss something. To solve or figure it out. To come to understand it.

            Short, sweet, one syllable. Two letters, three S's (which, honestly, do the heavy lifting) and U, the goth child of the vowels.

              "Defenestration".

              The fact there's a specific word for throwing someone out of a window is hilarious. Even the word itself sounds funny to say.

                I think "refenestration" which means to throw someone back into a building through the window is inherently funnier.

                      Biblicore.

                      Not just do i love the word, but also what it describes: the smell of old books

                        I don't know that I have one now, but when I was a kid I liked "minimizing" because it was a pleasant pattern to type.

                          I thought you said Biblecore and I thought it was a genre of music that I needed to avoid.

                                1. The English language is a living language. All you need to do for refenestration to be a word is to start using it.
