I was geeking out over my other favorite words, tertiary and sylvan, to a friend and asked what his was. He told me circadian, and I lost it. Not only does it just roll of the tongue like some secret catnip for beauty, but I didn’t know the meaning at the time which is a rare thing for me today. It means something about 24 hour cycles in
12 hour periods, I think. It’s a good word nonetheless. Enjoy.

It means “Relating to or exhibiting approximately 24-hour periodicity.” Your “circadian rhythm” is the ups and downs of your body though the course of a single day.
