I learned three new exciting words today.

1. Lugubriously:

mournful, dismal, or gloomy,

especially in an affected,exaggerated, or unrelieved manner

2. Expostulate:

Express strong disapproval or disagreement.

3. Animalcule:

Sonia: “a microscopic or minute animal”

4. Cockchafer (The not so exciting yet funny sounding one)

a large European beetle (Melolontha melolontha) destructive to vegetation as an adult and to roots as a larva
