ventaToday's word from The Calendar:
vitulation
Which means:
"a rejoicing like a calf"
(from Henry Cockeram's Interpreter of Hard English Words, 1623. It's apparently derived from the Latin, vitulinus, meaning of or belonging to a calf.)
So there you go. Vitulation. Use it three times in conversation today, and once in your LJ.
I'm impressed. As a word, it's so unlikely that even I'm not sure I can think of a conceivable use for it.
