Pastelland Forum

Welcome to the forum of language, linguistics and speech, where we can contemplate and discuss languages and studying languages!

Perhaps we could start from my personal favourite; favourite words?

I have become enamoured to words with the end -id. These include; tepid, fetid, lurid, putrid, stupid, arid, pellucid, vivid and timid.

Witam uniżenie jaśnie wielmożnego pana, zacznijmy zatem.

My favourite English words are as follows:
nay
thine
art
revelation
British
mate
explicit
quite

That is all.
