"pulchritudinous"

Did you know that this word actually means "beautiful" or "full of beauty"? I would never have guessed that.

The english language is so weird.

To my everlasting shame, I learned this word from a celebrity gossip mag, in an article referring to Jude Law and Sierra Leone/Madre/whatserface before the nanny scandal.

that word definitely looks like something that would be more on the level of vomit and less on beauty. i think we can blame this one on the greeks.
