Word of the Day
cwm—(noun)—a geological term from Wales, another word for a cirque, which may not help many of us flatlanders very much. Still, you gotta love a word with no vowels, especially a noun. That's rock solid.
I always enjoy the czech phrase "Strč prst skrz krk" for both its lack of vowels and its content. Though i guess its cheating if it is another language.
