Saudade.
I had that a couple of months ago I think. And shall steal it now as it could not be more appropriate today.
Or if I must have a new word then I'll go for longing.
Saudade.
Good word. Spookily one which I almost used in this thread before having second thoughts, as it'd undoubtedly come off as pretentious if it were from me. Not the hammed-up kind of pretentious either.

Hate to break it to ya but you actually did post it (saudade) in the previous incarnation of this thread. I know you did cos I had to look it up and hence complimented you on a fine choice. I tactfully skipped over any accusations of pretension due to being prone to extreme pretension myself at times
Although am now wondering if it were yourself or Summer who originally posted it. Am fairly sure it was yourself originally cos I'd've probably put it down to emoness rather than pure, unadulterated pretension if it were Ms Serenade. If only cos you can get away with it under other monnikers at that age - when you get to geezerdom status it's either pretension or actual intelligence. Hard to be sure. I had to look it up is all I'm saying![]()

You're kind of right: I posted 'Weltschmerz', which is along similar lines and quite possibly more pretentious. Also far more German, which stands to reason, obv.

Tehehe, alright, I'll let you off then. :DActually intelligent, oh tactfully quoting one![]()
