RP Terms

So, some of you may know that some people tend to use other words in replace of everyday terms. These terms are from my website, and are terms I've used in the past. If you use some terms not on these lists, I'd be happy to add them. Remember that, if you can, define the word you us at the bottom at your post, this makes your roleplay easier to read for all of us.

Sorry if some words are repeated. I'm not always perfect.

Wow hahaha. Someone's a walking dictionary hmm? XD

Maybe so... And my parents say I have a small vocabulary

Opposite with my vocabulary, everyone says that I know more words than them. When we went to register for school, the lady said I sounded and looked smart. xD

Same with me Silver (: All the reading helps a lot

Fun for confusing your friends. xD

I adore it! People are always like...simpler please?

I thought I may point this out, as it is a common mistake. But the "maw" is actually the belly.

I, too, share an enhanced terminology. I find it quite side splitting when others goggle at one for using "larger, more complex" word choices and make one think they've sprouted two more heads. It's prodigiously enjoyable. XD

Meh people don't hear me anyway, I talk so fast, it don't matter how big of words I use

Ehhh but at least you use them

Indeed!

And thats what counts in the long run

This is brilliant Mina!!

Wows, that's impressive Mina! I don't think I'll ever use that many different terms in my life!

I just stick with the simple ones!

Elysia wrote:I just stick with the simple ones!

ditto!

Yeah they all seem to be ... just not right sometimes

We don't, for the most part, as it is member preference... But the majority of the members here do not use this vocabulary, other than perhaps a few words, but nothing as extensive as this. This post is pretty outdated if you look at when it was posted. (:
