Words You've Never Used In Your Life
i've never said or written the word 'tarnation' as in 'What in tarnation is going on here?'
oh.... and 'whilst', a word British bum boys like to throw around a lot. |

one word I use a lot in emails is "unfortunately" but rarely ever say it. mainly due to the silly requests we get and I have to respond with "unfortunately that is not possible to do." my wife would say I never use the words "sorry," "you're right" or "what would you like to do?" :1orglaugh:1orglaugh |
Please.....
|
Indubitably
Useless if you ask me. |
I cant say because then I would have used them
|
Words I have never said: "Baddog is way sexier than I am" and "do these make my ass look big?"

n. The act of damning or the condition of being damned. interj. Used to express anger or annoyance. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [tarn(al) + (damn)ation.] Regional Note: The noun and interjection tarnation illustrate suffixation, the addition of a suffix to a word. Tarnation and darnation (the latter probably having come first) are both euphemistic forms of damnation. Tarnation seems to have been influenced by tarnal, another mild oath derived from (e)ternal! The Oxford English Dictionary cites late-18th-century examples of tarnation from New England, indicating that it has been part of American speech since colonial days. another word is 'vexed' but I do use 'confabulation' for fun sometimes :thumbsup |
"Whilst" is just "while". I'd say you'd have a good case for arguing that they're basically the same word. Not entirely sure if that counts, sorry! I use whilst in conversation, but try to avoid it in writing.
I just did a quick search of my entire professional writing archive. I'm up to 8 million words, and I've never used "ensconced", so there's that. |

What about "indeed" people like cybermike always says it in chat.
Yet nobody, NOBODY uses that retarded word in real life. In this kinda format: A: "sales suck lately" B: "indeed" |

I don't want to even write this word here, so I'll just link to it
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postmodernism When I was doing my postgrad I lived around many students who wanted to show that they knew that word |
From those near Pittsburgh you will know this one well...
