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

what are your thoughts on β€œwhence”?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

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

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

It's a big w for hence

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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
