What 1 word have you not heard in ages, 1 you want to bring back and 1 you dont like?

IvaBigWun

I was reading a review of Anchorman 2 and saw it was described as "terrific" Now there's a word I havent heard or seen in writing in a long time, especially from someone under the age of 25.

One word Id bring back: "Diddies" As in "Hasnt she a lovely pair of diddies lads?"

And one word I dont like: Nígger", there's never an excuse for it (Ive just noticed its in the profanity filter on here)

How else am I meant to convey a word I dont like in a thread titled " What 1 word have you not heard in ages, 1 you want to bring back and 1 you dont like?"

Smoke signals?

Word I haven't heard in ages - standard, heard it yesterday and my brain had to figure out what it meant for a minute!!!
word I want to bring back - wholesome....
word I hate with a passion - rape

Thank you.

Ring or Dial for making a phone call.

Societal, a word used when there is the perfectly valid social but social has too many communistic overtones for the Americans so they prefer to use societal.

Affordable, when you really mean cheap but that also has too many negative overtones.

So you hate a word? See that it is in the profanity filter and then make the decision to bypass the profanity filter to use the word? You couldn't have typed Ni@@&r? Surprisingly most if not all would have known what it meant.

Word I'be bring back: Gobdaw - uniquely descriptive in a uniquely Irish way.

Word I haven't heard in ages: Elegance - love the sound of it, see too little of it.

Word I don't like: Yeast - unhappy itchy memory trigger.

Like: 'Blackguard'. Such a satisfying insult. Also comes in handy verb form - 'blackguardin'.

Dislike: 'chill', as an imperative. Always has the opposite effect. As for 'chillax' - let us never speak of it again.

Chillax is a handy filter though. As soon as someone says it you can safely write them off as a total tosser.

Then makes an excuse for it.

A word I haven't heard in ages is paradox.
One I want to bring back is irony.
A word I hate is self-contradictory. Or is that two words?

Word I'd love to see brought back:

Discombobulated, god I love that word, but using it can indeed cause people to become discombobulated

Word I'd love to see extinguished from the English lexicon:

Retarded. Obvious really.

IT'S NOT A WORD! NOOOO! I don't care how many times it is spoken, it is just a spittle-flecked idiot noise.

Your post just reminded me of another word I haven't heard in years that I'd love to see brought back -

Your command of the English language is exemplary

Naaaw, thanks! I was going to write 'retard noise' instead of 'idiot noise', but I didn't want to offend you. Not at Christmas, anyway.

If there's never an excuse for it, how can you excuse using it even in a thread about words you don't like?

I'd love to bring back the word "one".
