It's a good step into adulthood right? Ok ok, it's not. But I adopted one anyway. The word I adopted is traboccant. This word means superabundant. The site's usage of the word in context is: "Kim had a traboccant love for shoes and secretly wished she was born with an extra pair of legs." I've never heard of this word before, but I like the idea. I'll try to use it, if I pronounce it correctly. However, upon googling the word I discovered I am not the only parent of this word. It's OK, I'll share it. Being tasked with saving one word from extinction in the English language is a bit of a daunting task, anyways.Oh, and thanks to @dontgetcaught, someone I look up to, for tweeting about this site and leading me to it!
Happy verbiage!

Congrats, but if you are going to start dropping it in your everyday chatter please don't go too out of your way to say it.
Like Children you need to have it grow up on it's own- don't live vicariously through it.
Ok, I have not used this word once. I am a bad momma.
Patrick- this word is no longer my child. want it? ;)
