Lost Words

Inspired by a thread on drawer rather than draw in the Pedant's section.

A poster mentioned the word Overmorrow for the day after tomorrow which reminded me of the book Dictionary of Lost Words.

I'd love to hear of lost words that you remember.

Waiting for the words...

Those words are so lost nobody can find them!

I really hoped to hear some good ones. I mentioned the book because it focused particularly on some words linked to women in the past, such as bondmaid.

Susie Dent on twitter is always good for the odd lost word.
