Should Be Studying

I should be studying, but I'm taking a brief break to exclaim in amazement/humor/pleasure at some of the words I've encountered/acquired this semester:
-paytanic
-amphibolous
-proleptically
-prolegomon
-actu
-intertext
and the list continues- those are just the ones on my mind right now. Isn't academia wonderful?

Edit: More words as I run across them in notes and the like:
apotropaic
angelomorphism
ext_27060: Sumer is icomen in; llude sing cucu! (Default)

It ought to be, I think.

Also, even though I don't know the word, I have the vague sense that it ought to be "prolegomenon" instead of "prolegomon".

Yeah, that was a typo on my part. Apparently a repeated one. Sorry.
