Unusual Words You Might've Noticed On My Social Media

On ko-fi:

-Χαίρετε

This verb in the 2nd person plural imperative comes from the ancient Greek word χαίρω. In a basic sense it's used to express the action of rejoicing or taking pleasure in something.

This form in particular is used as a greeting: Hello everyone and goodbye everyone!

-Χαριδωτης

This noun in the nominative case literally means joy-giver. The χαρά - joy and delight, half is actually related to the verb χαίρω.

On Twitter:

-ἀστέρων πάντων ὀ κάλλιστος

It's a fragment from Sappho 104B that means: the loveliest of all the stars.

ἀστήρ - star

πᾶς - all

καλός - beautiful

-ἀστράρχη

This translates to queen of stars.

I'm quite fond of astronomy, if you can't already tell <3

-Lychnobite

This unique word is used to describe someone who works at night and sleeps during the day.

I've struggled with my day-night cycles since the day I was born. I personally prefer the quiet of night, so I thought this was a fitting word to describe myself.

This word is crafted from:

λύχνος - lamp

βίος - life

Bonus from a private account:

-εὐάστερος - rich in stars

Scatterbrained

My thoughts are scattered stars, dotting the night sky.

Not ready to be constellations. Not yet.
