Idiosyncrasy

From Tarisms

Note to editors: Please don't include the corrections if they contain mature content.

Idiosyncratic words are words of characteristics peculiar to an individual or group. Idiosyncratic words mean one thing for a particular person, as a blade could mean war, but to someone else, it could symbolize a knighting. By the same principle, linguists state that words are not only arbitrary, but also largely idiosyncratic signs.

  • "We jumped on each other and started screwing each other." - Ch 12
