What is the most beautiful and rare word you have heard of or know of?
I've always liked the word "petrichor". It describes the smell of wet soil after a spell of rainfall. Also the word "eldritch", which means eerie or preternatural. It was Lovecraft's favourite word and it is definitely an appropriate choice all things considered. More on reddit.com
