OP I collect words in a disorganized fashion. Notebooks filled with quotes. Slips of papers collected over the years. Book jackets. All kinds of places on which I scribble down words that caught my interest, sometimes even with definitions jotted down, too.
Anyway, I had written the word epularian down on one of those slips of paper and had written next to it 'of a feast.' I really liked the sound of the word. So, recently I used the word epularian in a bit of writing.
However, this morning, I cannot find the word anywhere in any reference--and I've gone through everything I can find on the Web.
Have I confused this word with one that is similar? Have I misread my own writing?
If anyone can look at the word epularian, maybe replace a letter or two and come up with a word that means something to do with feasts, thanks a lot.
I better go check Mrs. Bryne. If epularian is in Bryne, then that explains it. She has words nobody else has, not that I should use them in formal writing...
