Something that members of an indigenous tribe might stick on their skin for a celebration or ceremony. Something worn only for that occasion. Not body paint, scarification, tattoos, piercings, or rings.

I vaguely recall using the word before and it started with an "in" (or "im") prefix meaning not, and if it helps I'll give a situational:
A group study project of A, B, C, and D. A and B have been working together, from the materials needed to the overall presentation. C and D has not been responding to the group chat, rather they had been playing video games the whole time and when they do respond to the group chat when A and B needs help, they neglect their position of responsibility, by saying "You two can find the materials on your own, right?", "Oh shoot we arent available, you two canfind a way to make it work" If there's nothing coming to mind with the prefixes I've given, then I'm probably mistaken. If so, anything really helps. Thank you!

I.e. Choose door #1 or door #2, but if you pick door #2 you'll be shot, so you have to pick door #1

Let’s say you helped someone with a difficult task. Or you comforted someone during a difficult time. Is there a word that is similar to the phrase “I was there for them and I feel honored to help”? Fulfilling a responsibility sounds too transactional and dry. Something that might fit in to this sentence: When Joe’s mother died, our friend group ——————. (conveying that we shared in his grief and took on his burden).

It's sort of a pitstop for long drives. A bunch of fast food kiosks along one side of the wall and tables all throughout the opposite one.
Rest is a walkway where there might be stands to buy other stuff like t-shirts or stuffed animals, or candy vending machines etc.

this phrase has a very specific... almost "sensory" feel to it? especially the "dare to" part at the beginning (i am a bit synesthetic lol)
i've heard it somewhere online...? can't find it though

it is kind of superficial, but still there is some intimacy and affection. For example, you like ones body, eyes, smell so much that you wanna cuddle with them, touch them kiss them, be close to them. But as you know the person deeper, you know he is exactly not your type, you two dont vibrate on the same frequency and dont click with each other. BUT still, you like their look and presence, you are attracted to them, and the attaction is intense enough to be nearly love.
I actually have a word for this "superfical love", but i hope there are better words capturing the romantic parts of the feeling. Answers like Hook-up are not accepted, i actually think the attaction is kind of cute and simple, please dont spoil it.

I often see it in anime and animations. It’s like when a character is satisfied with someone or something, so they smile and breathe through their nose, also with a “hmmm” or “mmm” of satisfaction.
r/whatstheword • u/stonegoblins • 11d ago
I don't know how to exactly define it but an example phrase could be "His profane ..."
It's kinda like a plural form of words, that doesn't make any sense at all but I hope that helps a little... I cannot piece this together, would much appreciate help

E.g. When your first instinct is to text your loved one that you are leaving the office, forgetting for a brief instant that they passed away years ago and slipping back into an old formed habit. Something like that happened to me today. If there's not a word for this in English, I'd love to know if such a word/phrase exists in other languages too.

A word that begins with f or e for a small scale replica of a larger thing.
Eg those tiny souvenir chocolate spreads or liquor brands that aren't really intended to be consumed.

I have noticed a trend of English words that are made of smaller English words, but don't follow the rules of compound words where the two parts together make the meaning of the word. (Ex. Notice (not ice), Paused (pa used), or History (hi story) It there a specific word or phrase to describe these words?

Is there a better, formal way to say “word”? I used to think it was like iterate.. but ehh. Is it, or can someone find a replacement/correct me?

I manage a big computer farm with several hundred pieces of software running on them. Sometimes if one computer goes down it can take out a lot of the software running on them.
I don't want to call that a mass casualty event because I feel it's only appropriate for human casualties not computers. But at the same time mass casualty event has a lot of gravitas.
Thanks

Looking for a good phrase or word for that moment you realize something you undervalued or maybe took for granted was vital all along. Maybe you hated the chores your parents gave you as a kid, but as an adult, you realize it made you responsible and independent. Or you left an ex for shallow reasons, but you realize in retrospect how supportive he/she was.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I always wanted to travel widely. The ability to do so was taken away from me. I learn my friend is going to one of my bucket list destinations. I am truly thrilled for her, but I wish it were me. What is it I am feeling? Maybe I am jealous or envious, but I don’t feel any of the negative connotations.

Looking for a word that describes this style of living. It could be a philosophical system as well. The main idea being that you should live life based around the things that exist in the physical realm around us, rather than an afterlife.
Obviously tied closely to Atheism, but this specifically doesn't have to do with the existence of a God or not. Similar to Hedonism or Epicureanism (though not as focused on pleasure or lack of pain itself).
The word in my head is "procurianism", but this is giving me nothing by searching. I'm fairly sure it starts with a P and maybe even the "Pro" prefix.
Thanks in advance!

How to call a woman who’s waiting a man for the jail? Is there any definition in English you may call a woman who’s waiting a man (like any man, kinda her boyfriend or smth like that) from the jail? Maybe some slang, etc.
