I was wondering if any NT'ers was willing to try to expand their vocabulary, if so i hope this will be a success. We can just post words we recently found out, or words you believe most people don't know.



Perennial- Lasting for a long time (a)

Disdain- To think unworthy of notice (v)

Foment- To instigate or foster;promote growth of (v)
 
Do you guys ever hear a word that gets you thinking, so you look it up to understand it 100%. Then within 24 hours you hear someone use it or in a movie or music, and you're like damn. this

Same here but I hear them on podcasts.

@OP
I keep my dictionary app on deck.
ubiquitous:being everywhere especially at the same time
sequestration:remove
schadenfreude:pleasure felt at someone else's misfortune
sudorific:causing sweat
propinquity:nearness in place or relation

Edit: Why don't we also use the words in a sentence?
I'm assuming that if we can apply them then maybe other people will remember them or their uses.
