Since 1996, I have compiled word lists on various topics in order to spread the joy of the English language. If you're looking for an online dictionary, a word list on a given topic, or the definitions to rare and unusual words, the Phrontistery is for you. Here, you will find my 14000-word dictionary of obscure and rare words, the International House of Logorrhea, as well as many topical word lists and other English language resources. I'm not affiliated with any dictionary company, nor do I have any professional training in lexicology or etymology. I'm just a man with an endless love of unusual words - the rarer, the better.
