Orotund
(OR eh tund)

Sounds that are orotund,
Are most certainly not moribund,
Nor will they leave you stunned,
They're full and rich - orotund.

Every week I rhyme and define a new wacky word.
Come on over to indulge your inner nerd.
And, please let me know of any weird words you've heard.

  2. This is a great word - and any poem that uses the word "moribund" is ok in my book. - Thanks!

  3. Orotund, is fun, to say! Kinda has the sound of the meaning--onomatopoeia? Another fun word! Thank you Rachel :-)

    1. I totally agree it is fun to say in a onomatopeia kind of way! :)
