Does anybody know any words that used to be in the dictionary that aren't anymore?
We had one here from the early 1900s that had the word "gleet" in it. It meant the clear liquid that forms in a wound before it scabs over.
We still jokingly use the word to mean the liquid that comes out of the mustard or catsup first if you don't shake the squeeze bottle. As in catsup gleet or mustard gleet.
