I rather enjoyed my time in silverlight, and was annoyed to see it fall out of support.

I won't disagree with that. I just have to question the sanity of anyone who makes that sort of effort to keep using dead/unsupported technology.
Well, using is one thing...but developing new stuff using it is another altogether (we were talking about something to facilitate that, weren't we?)

Never thought such a word existed except in a South African context.

One could consider the medical context as well.
I think the South African context evolved from the medical context of a famous individual.

|

Yes. It is from his autobiography that I first heard this word some decades ago.

It is actually Portuguese and does not relate to Latin or English origin. Original name was a bit different and later on it was changed to adapt to local residents. Interestingly, the words you are referring belong to different languages which kind of represents SA's culture. Too many languages and cultures living together. I will get down my philosophy horse now and climb make some tea horse.

It's a word that is in everyday use, here in the UK. I would guess the same is true for across the pond.

|

|

Well, not everyday, and normally with a prefix! 
It's a fairly well known word though.

I got it by my wife's help who got it from a store name near our home. And yes, with a prefix.

In use mostly by women. I almost had it but I tried a military word with all but one of the same letters.

Apparently a much used word in the UK, but not a word I know.
In the end, I had three letters in place, a fourth to put in one of the other two spots, and this was the only word that sounded like it wouldn't summon some Aztec deity.
