Moliminous

Postby Slava » Sat Nov 04, 2006 10:44 am

I stumbled across this word while looking up something else. Seredipity is not only my favorite word, but a great thing to have happen.

Moliminous means very important or of great consequence. Out of date, but still a nice word.

I like the way the word rolls off the tongue. But would you wrtie it out in a sentence?

Moliminous in Use?

"Children know Father Christmas is coming and that this is SCOPPERLOIT (a time for play), though Santa himself may be in danger of suffering from RACHISAGRA (pain in the spine) from carrying too many sacks of gifts down the chimney. And while it could be a MOLIMINOUS (extremely laborious) task not to JARGOGLE (confuse or mix up) the presents, there may well be PEENGING (peevish complaining) if you do!"
