Isn't "alright" just the informal version of "all right", not a previous, older version? Like anywayS vs anyway.

I'm the alight poster! This is a fun and informative thread. Let's help each other have fun and learn new words!

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.

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.

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!
