Luciferous Logolepsy

[Dave Monroe]

Welcome to Luciferous Logolepsy, a collection of over
9,000 obscure english words. Though the definition of
an "english" word might seem to be straightforward, it
is not. There exist so many adopted, derivative,
archaic or abandoned words in what we loosely define
as the "English Language", that a clear-cut definition
seems impossible. For the purposes of this project
though, words are included that may stretch any basic
definitions. Particular attention has been paid to
archaic words, as they tend to be more evocative - as
if their very age lends additional meaning or
overtones. Current personal favorites include "skirr",
"epicaricacy" and "schizothemia".

The name of this project is also its description:
Luciferous [adj. - illuminating, literally and
figuratively] Logolepsy [n. - an obsession with
words], in other words: 'an illuminating obsession
with words'....
