| A captivatingly chartaceous texture by Evelyn Flint |
CHARTACEOUS
Adjective. Mid-17th century.
[from late Latin chartaceus, from Latin charta.]
Of the nature of paper; papery.
I rather like the word chartaceous, which makes me think of heavy, old, yellowing paper, the kind that you discover in dusty tomes hidden in your grandparents' attic.
Do please put pen to paper (figuratively speaking) and leave a comment in the box below.
I had never heard of this word before. Thinking of the attic, and old paper, however does may my nose twitch--and I fear I shall begin to sneeze....
ReplyDeleteVery true, Beth - old musty books can be a tad sneezeworthy indeed.
DeleteI like this word too, and I like the paper in the picture.
ReplyDeleteAnd I really, really like old books! You never know what treasures you will find in them.
