i had to look up the spelling of the fear of shellfish one.

 

i learned turdiform at a trivia quiz in london 10 years ago. it was such a great word, it stuck...

 

i mean, what's thrush-shaped apart from a thrush. any other thrush-like bird i guess. i just thought it was brilliant that there was such a word.

 

if you are interested in the endless wonder of the english language, check this out:

also, the samuel johnson (dictionary) episode of blackadder the third has to be one of the funniest comedies ever written:

 

"Certainly, sir -- anything I can do to facilitate your velocitous extramuralisation."
