Whenever you learn a fun word in a language you speak natively or fluently, share it here! I personally will be posting only English words for now, but other languages are welcome if anybody else wants to contribute!

If you want to share a word, please provide the word, the definition and the context in which you found it. That way we can see the word in use.

As a cat owner I thought I'd add this one.

I teach children this word at my job and it is fun identifying creatures by when they are most active. Many of the creatures we consider nocturnal at first glance are mostly or entirely crepuscular
