No the word of the day is "ardor". Enthusiasm or passion.
What do we think of this word? I love the soft, elven like quality.
On the other hand, it reminds me of "larder", which is a terrible word.

The word of the day is facetious - treating serious issues with deliberately inappropriate humor; flippant.
The word of the day is flippant.

I will accentuate the O in ardor in order to differentiate it from larder.
Sounds like stuff people say in Lord of the Rings. Good stuff.

It’s misleading.
Reminds me of arduous, which is not related to this word at all.
I do like the pronunciation, but it sounds like a British slapper telling you how she wants to be fucked.

Because I grew up with an absent, shitty father and an older brother who rejected me, I often tend to attract this kind of behavior from people I want to be friends with who want nothing to do with me. It used to make me sad, but I'm used to it now.
