Writing in your Heart discussion

So this is just a bit of fun - post a word and give it's meaning and see what others think - as well as what other people's words are. Remember to do a different word each time you are on goodreads! My word for today is 'inconsequential' and it means unnecessary.

Here's my word for today it means boring but is in German so 'langwielig'. I have officially put my German to good use now! (I never said it had to be an English word...)

Oh why does German have to be so complicated. That's a mouthful. Love it.

My word is bemused. Most people think it means amused or interchange with that one. It actually means confused. I didn't know that when I learned it.

I totally love the word bemused! Whenever I read a book with it in, before I learnt its proper meaning I always thought it meant amused. Love it Sarah! My word for today is...wonderful. And if you bookworms and writers need a definition for that; then look it up since you should know how wonderful you all are.

I used wonderful all the time. Love it. And I find most things ARE wonderful. That's just how I live. :)

My word is hiraeth (welsh). It means a homesickness for a home to which you cannot return, maybe never was, nostalgia, yearning, grief for the last places on your path.

So my word for today is 'shadows', which I guess can be descirbed as a silhoutte (sorry if I spelt it wrong).

My word is Ghost. What does that word mean to you? For me it's ethereal, otherworldly, not a scary thing at all.

Ghost and shadows. I'm seeing a pattern here. Kind of inspiring putting those two words together.

I love the metaphors related to shadows.

Carole, I don't think of ghost as scary. I agree about your definition and then also I think of "remains behind." Like "the ghost of a smile."

pretty thought- can go in any direction.
