Today’s BONUS word of the day – jolie laide
Posted by in General Things, Writing Style
Ok, I know I already gave a word of the day, but here’s a bonus one! Jolie laide!
foreign term \zhȯ-lē-led\
: good-looking ugly woman : woman who is attractive though not conventionally pretty

And, just because I’m in a giving mood … the next word in the dictionary is jouissance!
foreign term \zhwē-säⁿs\
: pleasure : sexual pleasure : orgasm

Useage: Did you give jouissance to that jolie laide you were with last night?
