Hello, my name is Jennifer. And I am a logophile.

Is there a 12-step program that can help me? I was looking for a word today. I couldn’t remember the exact word, but I remembered that it started with logo and it meant something about being focussed on words.

I thought I’d blogged about it. So I looked on my blog, but I was scanning. I couldn’t find it.

I looked through m-w.com for all words starting with logo…but I didn’t find it.

I googled “lover of words”. I found a logophile’s lament. I only read the first two paragraphs before I realized that I HAVE THIS affliction. I HAVE EXACTLY this affliction.

Hello. My name is Jennifer. I am a logophile.

PS: I found my word: Logomachist. It was buried in the entry about fornicating frogs.

    *Gasp* So that’s what it’s called! And here I was thinking this affliction was nameless and that I was the only one who suffers from it.

    […] told them about my blog and how much I freak over words, vocabulary, and new expressions (aka: logophile). They told me one of their friends was a character. He invents words. Really. He invents words […]

YukonJen’s foodie & activity newsletter

Every so often, I’ll send an email newsletter. Not every day. Not every week. Just once a month or so. If you are interested in the events or tours, you might want to sign up. I’ll be announcing them first with an email.
