Appetizer
What is a word that you use that would not be considered common?
Skookum - I didn't realize it was a British Columbia Specific Word until I moved to the East Coast. It's a Chinook Jargon Word that means big and mighty. Chinook Jargon is the trading language based on the language of the Chinook Indians with words mixed in from French, English, Salish, nootka and toher local tongues. In daily language it's used to describe something sturdy. Ie: I bought a soft shell guitar case that has a really skookum chunk of foam in it for support.
