50 of your favorite words

I just found this 'article' on the BBC News Website about peoples' favorite (obscure) words. When you are bored, click on this link, 50 favorite words, and spend a few minutes broadening your vocabulary. Your challenge then, is to use at least four of them in everyday conversation... as if you didn't already...

... just a quick comment on the music quiz in the previous entry: Having (mostly) completed the quiz I now keep thinking of music I should have included so, I am now working on an alternative list, you have been warned. That's the disadvantage of having lived so long, and experienced so many different music genres... and also, ways of playing the music .... I mean, as a child I remember playing records on a wind up record player, known as a gramophone (which mother gave to a rummage sale, - tragic). Now I have an ipod which is already out of date.

Boy, I'm really behind the times- I haven't even gotten around to getting an ipod. Maybe I'll just skip that and wait for the next thing, or maybe the thing after that.
