Episode eight (for days 36 to 40) of my 100 day challenge to find words I don’t know. I’m scraping words from https://randomword.com/ and each day picking one that I find interesting and which is also in the OED.
| Day | Date | Word | Meaning |
| 36 | Friday 6 December | lissotrichous | smooth-haired |
| 37 | Saturday 7 December | plenicorn ** | of a ruminant: having horns that are solid rather than hollow |
| 38 | Sunday 8 December | pultaceous | macerated and softened; like porridge; pulpy |
| 39 | Monday 9 December | boopic | ox-eyed |
| 40 | Tuesday 10 December | megachiropteran | of, like, or pertaining to fruit bats |
** My favourite of the words presented.
