This thread is inspired by my Favorite Words thread. So here is the gist of this thread. Find weird and obscure words in the English language and post them with definitions. That way we all learn something! And learning is half the battle

Edit: I forgot to post my word!

Absquatulate- meaning to make off, decamp, or abscond

Perineum is a pretty cool word. It means your taint.

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
