For anyone who hasn’t heard it, to ‘hurkle-durkle’, from 19th-century Scots, is to linger under the covers of a warm bed long after it’s time to get up.

[Susie Dent @susie_dent]

Word of the Day (because it’s about time) is ‘respair’, from the 16th century. It means fresh hope, and a recovery from despair. One of too many lost positives we could do with bringing back.

Wishing everyone a gruntled, gormful, ruthful and feckful New Year, full of respair.

[Susie Dent @susie_dent]

Word of the day is ‘phrontistery’ (17th century): a place to withdraw to for thinking or contemplation.

If no phrontistery is available, then to ‘latibulate’ is to find a corner and hide in it.

Dad Music Video of the Year and it's not close.

This one spoke to me.

Wishing the Rails community a wonderful end to 2023. Thank you for keeping the ecosystem positive and thriving. Here's a quick look back at what the Rails Foundation accomplished in 2023, and a hint of what's to come next year. See you in 2024! https://t.co/3GnoIgHeL3

Word of Christmas Day, as always, is
‘confelicity’: joy in the happiness of others.

The fellow emotion to ‘compassion’, literally ‘a suffering with’.

Wishing you confelicity aplenty this Christmas.

Word of the day is ‘ruthful’ (13th century): full of compassion and empathy for others. The original, before ‘ruthless’ came along.

[Susie Dent @susie_dent]

Word of the day is ‘komorebi’ (Japanese): sunlight streaming through a canopy of trees.

[Susie Dent @susie_dent]

A gentle reminder of the word ‘matutolypea’: grumpiness or downheartedness first thing in the morning.

Based on Latin and Greek, literally ‘morning grief’, or ‘sorrow of the dawn’.
