I get a full on boner whenever someone uses "thusly" in a sentence. Such a great word.

what are your thoughts on β€œwhence”?

[-] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

If you suffix it with "forth" I'm in, you son of a bitch

[-] SpaceScotsman@startrek.website 5 points 1 year ago

I misread that as prefix and, honestly, forthwhence doesn't sound half bad.

[-] affiliate@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

that’s an extremely rare sighting but it’s so satisfying to read

[-] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

It's a big w for hence

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Does it have to be used correctly? If not, i could thusly use it incorrectly, possibly?

I fucking love "thereto" and "therein", alwo "which" and "whence" and things like that, such simple words that make sentences less awkward
