Well Taylor Swift has just brought fortnight back into daily vocabulary for awhile. Any other words rarely used that you would enjoy having renewed? One word answers preferable! |

alight |

Isn't "alright" just the informal version of "all right", not a previous, older version? Like anywayS vs anyway. |
the word i posted is alight (no R). It means to land on (in the quickest definition). It can mean a bird landing on a branch, and my favorite and even less common use is to land on an idea. |

You're talking about alright or a'right. PP was referring to alight, which means to get off a form of transportation. Alight is definitely an old school word, which might be why you didn't recognize it. |
I'm the alight poster! This is a fun and informative thread. Let's help each other have fun and learn new words! |
ditty |
People should include the definition |
Crapulous |
Omg I love ditty |
