New to me, anyway.
I love dictionary dot com.
They send me a new word each day in my email.
They also help me find the word stuck in my brain
when my dysnomia acts up.
Ironically, dysnomia is not a word in their database.
Their Thesaurus is quite handy, too.
1. strigiform - adj. - of or pertaining to owls
2. welkin - noun - the sky
3. smaragdine - adj - emerald-green in color
4. pandiculation - noun - the act of stretching upon waking
5. mansuetude - noun - gentleness
Bonus Word - retcon - verb - to later revise an established element
of a fictional story
(like when Star Trek has an alternate timeline?)
A syllabic abbreviation for retroactivity continuity,
like fro-yo, sitcom, and hazmat.
