Favorite Words?
Tersa:
I need to post the most overused word in my writing on here... sigh. So many types of sighs, used for so many different purposes, and all of them seem to show up in my writing. ;D
prime_spirit:
Some of my fav english words are actually pretty simple: prime, pulse, pattern, pearl. These are how I categorize a person's magic level. Same thing with Rhythm, Rapture, Release and Resonance, as long as they keep the capital R.
Fav name: I like the name Mirabelle. It means 'of uncommon beauty'. I used it for my protagonist's mother.
Fav random words: Ambidextrous, paragon, zygote, translucent, catalyst and virility.
My favorite non-English words are my native Malay and a Japanese I've found.
Malay: 'pancaindera'. It means the five senses.
Japanese: 'yukikaze'. It means snowy wind.
I'm also putting words of my made-up language like areaqain (flowering), aqera (something that is real), iqeas (something that is pure), suayunu (faith), aqnit (dragon) and anesia (mature). Yeah, please forgive my bragginess :P & ;D
