Love it. And that silently staring at people who are eating thing, hoping to be invited...we still need that word!
I believe that my favorite is Englishable.I'm convinced that with a bit of help from a good editor, much of today's self published fiction is Englishable.
Eximious is my personal choice for an archaic word. But as for the list? Queerplungers! The entire word is awesome.
