Writing Wednesday #5

Some of my ramblings may be gobbeldygook and hokum, but I finagle you not. Flummoxed? All cattywampus? Then check this out:

"The English language can be maddening to native speakers and learners alike, but is also delightfully rich, especially for those who seek to convey a lighthearted tone in their writing. Here are 100 words it’s difficult to employ without smiling. Though their meanings may be obscure, they each present a challenge — I mean an opportunity — for you to paint a vivid word picture. Imbue your musings with mirth by incorporating these terms."
