I used the word THENCE today

[SummitKarl]

don't think I have ever used that word before
I've used "Thus", Thusly and Hence but never "Thence" it seems like such a unused, archaic and rarely used word, but it is used in every legal document describing a property and it's boundaries.
actual example:
"Thence west 9d 10’ 22” for a distance of 80.85’ to a non tangent curve having a radius of 625’ thence east along that curve(front property line) for a distance 87.53’ to the TRUE POINT OF THE BEGINNING"

so what do you all got for other odd and rarely used words?

and No @Ziggy , "tittailias" is not a actual word LOL

Doesn’t seem unapt for that?

Been called a schmuck and once a yahoo. I had to look up what a yahoo was/meant

[LargeOrangeFont]

But do people impignorate those properties they receive details on?

I work with a guy who can’t conjugate a sentence, but says plethora at least twice a day.

Yes

The meaning of these posts are obfuscated by the complexity of their diction.

 

[SKIDMARC]

Parched. I said it once in front of my BIL and the look he gave me was hilarious! He learned a new word that day.

Don’t forget Fucktard. That’s an important one.

Double Ratamacue. Yes, it does exist along with a flamadiddle diddle, paradiddle etc etc. Drum rudiments.

How about "Flemish" a line? "Latitude by Meridian Altitude".

I think the politically correct term Asianated. They don't like to be called Oriental.

The boat went vroom. That's an example of onomatopoeia.

For years I thought irregardless was not a word. But it is. Similar to inflammable and flammable. Irregardless and regardless mean the same thing.

 

[FreeBird236]

I never thought of it as being an obscure word, but when we named our first Eliminator 220 " Justa Fledgling" it was like, what the hell is a fledgling.

It is a double negative. It is more vernacular than a "real" word.
