ignoto: little used spanish word for "unknown" (in spanish, "desconocido" is more commom). I love the sound of it, and the mystery aura that surrounds this word when it is used in casual conversation

Linux.

Official definition: n : an open-source version of the UNIX operating system

UNofficial (my) definition: The best operating system created by mankind to date, and the operating system that should be on all computers worthy of the name.

Raddling (En)

'Raddling' is the name given to the red ochre dye (traditionally, though not always. Blue is often used, too) that is slathered over the breasts of Rams during the rutting season.

The purpose for such egregious and shameless lanolin-based graffiti is so that shepherds are able to tell, at a glace, which Ewes have a good chance of birthing some lambs for slaughter.

I'll let you figure out how the raddling gets from a Ram's chest to a Ewe's back.
It totally ruined my childhood memories of why sheep had different coloured spots on them, but it did tell me how to discern a sheep that'd run at you and one that'd run away from you.

Raddling is also the term to describe the act of one sheep getting its raddling all over another.
(not just used to describe sheep)

I also cannot make a single word anagram from Raddling.

This explains the phrase 'raddled wh*re' in more detail than i'd ever have thought necessary... XD Also, my word is the hebrew 'emeth', truth. This word was said to power golems. But if you removed the initial e, it became 'meth', which means death, and the golem would cease functioning. Emeth is something solid, something trustworthy, something you can rely upon. Pilate famously said to Jesus, "What is 'truth'?" The Roman word is veritas. In vino, veritas. Clearly Pilate drowned his sorrows in vino, without finding veritas. But then, he was married to Augustus's granddaughter. Poor sod must've been totally out of his depth.
