This is my father’s favorite word. Because it says so much in such little space. In Danish it translates to three whole words!

The name of this shade-loving perennial reminds me of my oldest daughter’s baby babble as she learned to talk.

Logizomechanophobia

This deliciously long word refers to the irrational fear of computers. It begins with incomplete logic, and continues to an out-of-place “zo.” Then there’s the “mecha.” I happen to love mecha of all sorts.

Reflecting or producing sexual desire or behavior, especially that is considered indecent or obscene (another good word). It even sounds sexy….and a little naughty.

Literally
Filed Under L | Leave a Comment
This was literally one of the first big words my daughters learned to use correctly (and impressively) at a young age. I’ll never forget how proud my oldest daughter was to pepper conversations with this word — or my shock at her usage. Eight years later, it still featured prominently in her vocabulary and also became one of the first big words from her little sister. I love words.

It’s just an amazing word. Especially when complementing someone’s hair. It sounds very alluring and sophisticated. It means “highly pleasing to the taste or smell; luxurious and rich.”

I like this word because that is how we are to treat each other, with God’s lovingkindness. I always smile when I see this word!

So many meanings and inexpressible feelings all just squished into one simple 4 letter word. Also the main part of the greatest phrase in the universe, “I love you!”
