Thread for words you've never used but wished you had

[Juan Albion]

I'll start:


Varlet

 

[Horses Arse]

Pudenda

 

[Yorkie]

Serendipity

 

[Theatre of Trees]

verisimilitude

 

[Gwylan]

Blimey, I've used three out of four of those mentioned, in fact, I used verisimilitude today.

How about a phrase. "Welcome to Brighton's new stadium at Falmer"?

 

[Theatre of Trees]

or "Yes FG that was a very sensible point."

 

[Braders]

threesome

 

[Scarface]

Procrastinate

Or "Thanks GG can I buy you a drink out of my winnings!"

 

[Hiney]

threesome

 

[Kev the Ape]

bouncebackability

 

[Schrödinger's Toad]

Undulate ... it's a great word, I may have said it at some point in my life, although I can't recall. It's suprisingly hard to slip into a conversation, although I shall endeavour to try at the pub.

You are right there. 'Undulating' is quite easy to use, but 'undulate' requires a bit more thought.

Sorry

Never had to use that one

I have no idea what most of these words mean!

[Simster]

Fillibustering

 

[Theatre of Trees]
