I had to look these up:
ReplyDeleteAstrobleme: Eroded remains of an ancient collision by a cosmic body into the earth
Engastrimyth: A ventriloquist (however the word is of greek origin rather than the latin word ventriloquist)
Pogonotrophy: Beardedness or the ability to grow a facial hair
There's a word for everything, huh?
ReplyDeleteAstrobleme - An eroded meteor impact crater.
Engastrimyth - A ventriloquist.
Pogonotrophy - Cultivation of a beard; beard-growing.
