Redux. I've always just used it as a fancier 're-do'. Still going to keep using it as such. I like the word too much.
Who knows, maybe your continued use of it may, uhh, revive it.
I will become a modern day frindle.
"Alternately" when I meant "alternatively".
"just" was meant to indicate a recent position in time. As in "just now."
Apparently muted? I was using it like a muted yellow, so yellow but it's been faded in some way. They thought I meant like a muted sound on the computer which meant turned off entirely.

Noisome means smelly, not noisy.
enormity means serious or grave, not very large.
terrific isnβt always great or amazing; it can be synonymous with terrifying.
I have cryptolalia; so probably all of them.
I think you're using the word "cryptolalia" wrong
