Hello, and welcome to the 'Increase Your Vocabulary' thread. And really you can thank
petulantgod for my next couple of discussions. Not only is he a brilliant writer, but *le gasp*, he's very entertaining.
I know that certain words in fics click with me -- just like some words leave me cold. Some just sound sexy. Some convey their meanings better. Others just look cool.
Now then -- what's the objective of this thread, you ask? Simple. Post a word you may have used in a fic of yours with the definition. This should be a word you don't see or hear in every day conversation -- hence the increasing your vocabulary bit :P
My word for this thread is sibilant -- having, containing, or producing the sound of or a sound resembling that of the s or the sh in sash [a sibilant snake]
Go to it. *G*
