The game is to take a word, describe that word and then find out its
true definition to see if your feelings change towards it. We used to
play this in our English Lit. classes - getting to know and love the
English language.
On first sight, crepuscular is an
ugly word, very different to what I'm used to and sounds medical and
scientific. It has multiple syllables, doesn't flow off the tongue and
trips itself up as I say it.
Definition: At the time of twilight
I would like this word to enchant me now that I know its meaning, but it still sounds far too similar to muscular.
