Lacking matter; empty.  Void of interest; barren; meager; dry; as, a jejune narrative.

Lordandmaster -> RE: Word Fight (4/5/2006 9:43:10 PM)

Do you mean "loquacious"?




Thanatosian -> RE: Word Fight (4/6/2006 7:46:04 AM)

if so, then it means wordy, talkative - one might even say garrulous


new word - xerophthalmia




candystripper -> RE: Word Fight (4/6/2006 10:16:11 AM)

Wait; "ailurophobia" was wrong.

"Ailurophobia" is fear of cats.  "Ailurolagnia" is a nice word too, but we're not allowed to define it...

"Xerophthalmia"--a guess: "dry eyes"?  "Xeros" means dry.
