Words both strange and lovely from around the world.

Discover these and many other words to surprise, delight and enamor. Terms for flirtatious talk that leads nowhere, for the urge to peer into other people's windows, for the sunlight that filters through the leaves of the trees. Terms for dancing awkwardly but with relish, for hating endings, for the look shared by two people who each with the other would speak first. An irresistible gift for lovers of words and those lost for words alike.
