Being posh

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

we realised a love of the word 'bequeath' this morning. Love getting a posh word into general conversation. What's your favourite posh word? I'd love to add more to the old vocabulary.

Having an extensive vocabulary is a wonderful thing & I wouldn't like to think I use words to "show off". Like you, I generally think that a "fancy" word is often just the right word to use.

Ornery is good, though possibly missing an 'h'.

I love words with q in them too.

Yes, scrabble need here!
