I is for Illecebrous


I imagine you'll love the next vocabulary word I have for you!

Today's word is: ILLECEBROUS

Illecebrous is defined as attracive, alluring, or enticing.

Ooo la la!

Reasons to know this word:
-Pickup lines become so easily overused.  Instead of saying that someone looks beautiful or handsome, you can say "You're looking particularly illecebrous this evening."  Sure, they might look at you like you have three heads, but if they're intrigued by your apparent intelligence, this just might work.
-If you need another word that rhymes with "capricious" or "facetious", this one will come in handy!  Poetry!

  3. I love new words, but I don't think I'd try this one as a pick-up line. I'm not sure I could pronounce it even knowing what it rhymes with!

  4. I'd have to say that before drinking anything with alcohol. What a tongue twister!
