Your home of the oddest words the world has to offer

Partiality

As valentines is upon us, why not a few little love themed words?

  • Affection, or to hold in high regard.

  • Apprize - To care about deeply
  • Cosset - Care for lovingly

Whether you do or don’t celebrate this day, enjoy!

A little bonus factoid for you?

The Japanese celebrate St. Valentine’s day in a rather unique fashion. Women give the men gifts of chocolate as well as other gifts.

There are three types of traditional chocolate. Giri choco (obligatory chocolate), honmei choco (chocolate for the man the woman is serious about) and tomo choco (chocolate for the woman’s female friends).

But alas, don’t panic! There is also ‘White day’ , exactly a month after valentines. If the males received chocolates, they now have the chance to give back (a more expensive) box of chocolates to that lady. These are sold in white boxes.
