What word/phrase have you stumbled across recently and subsequently put to good use? The more profane the better admittedly. | This reminded me of the thread on here "Describe yourself in one word", Ryan goes 'Overly verbose' and someone quoted him and went " That's TWO words".

There are probably a few words for little/small or the like in Romanian but my name is the prefix to calling something small in Romanian according to Bogdan and Eugene.

| Re: What is your most recently learned word?
I have the opposite problem just now - I use words that no one else seems to understand and get asked what to explain what it means constantly. One guy at work particularly who makes me feel like an utter weirdo because he questions what I say constantly.
Off the top of my head, one of them was ennui. Not that odd.
