Word of the Day

Diaphanous

Hmmm. What does that mean, exactly?
  • characterized by such fineness of texture as to permit seeing through
  • characterized by extreme delicacy of form
Oh. What is its origin??
  • Medieval Latin diaphanus, from Greek diaphanēs, from diaphainein to show through, from dia- + phainein to show
INTENSE. Sentence!
  • Only she would use the most diaphanous fabrics, creating the most perfect and thinnest quilts.
I have some strange want for some girl to make a quilt for me, or maybe just make anything for me. Or maybe I just want a girl like this to exist.
