Yada

and now... YOUR DAILY LIT TRIVIA!
(God... that sounds spastic, i hope God doesn't strike me down or sumthin)
'Ok... i know i'm freezing. I shan't torment my readers'
That was a horrible beginning.
Anw, lemme give my worthless opinion on a few literary terms.

Catharsis
An emotional release in drama or art. The process of freeing repressed emotion by association with the cause.

Oh btw, more trivia.
Did you know that 'Cathay' is an archaic word in medieval language for 'China'. Like wow... Ok. I was never this lame. I suppose bloggin is intrinsically cathartic.

Bathos
An unintentional lapse in mood from the sublime to the absurd or trivial. A ridiculous feature offsetting an otherwise sublime situation; an anticlimax.

Dummies corner:
Sublime refers to something being most exalted, grand or noble (sublime genius) OR arrogantly unruffled; extreme (sublime ignorance). Feels more like i'm explainin these terms to myself...

Hubris
Arrogant pride. Presumptous. OR Excessive pride leading to defiance (against the gods), leading to nemesis.

Apologies,
Apparently, this dictionary of mine, ironically named 'Complete Wordfinder' is unable to locate the whereabouts of 'Hamartia'. Maybe i should build a word bank here... This blog shall thus be dedicated to the appreciation of language. I find myself engrossed in the dictionary glossing over silly words like um... 'halitosis' essentially 'bad breath' as in halitus breath, if you wanna sound 'cheem' or 'stupid' that is.

Pathos
A quality of speech, writing or events that evokes pity or sadness. Suffering and grief.

Time.
Is a precious commodity. Odd, time can't be commodified. Anw, vocabulary bank sounds interesting. Maybe in my next post. I never figured out what 'Sanguine' meant, hearing it time to time, so here.

Sanguine
Optimistic or confident. OR Bright and ruddy complexions. OR An amorous disposition. Literally, it means blood-red colour as in sanguineous.

I confess i am no clearer than i already was.

Invective
Iago uses invective speech. Speech or writing that denounces, abuses and attacks. Can be directed at a person, an idea, a system or thought. Employing excessive use of negative emotive language. Like: I cannot but conclude the bulk of your natives to be the most pernicious race of little odious vermin that nature ever suffered to crawl upon the surface of the earth.

That's mean, interesting to watch the guy's reaction when you say it to him. So, that's all i got for now. Dump me a few interesting words to challenge my wordfinder. Also for building this word bank together.
