Earlier today I had the sudden realization of what an odd word "ghost" is. I forget what it's called, but it's a known phenomenon where suddenly a random word seems extremely weird to a person. What words has that happened with for you?
This happens to me fairly regularly. I can’t remember any of them now, of course, but I’ll see (or think of) an innocuous word and it suddenly strikes me as odd - almost alien. I put it down to early-onset Alzheimer’s, so thanks for easing my mind.
