I love the letter I because it's so INCONSPICUOUS. It's like the underdog in a basketball tournament (yes, I still have the UK win on my brain:). So many other letters have fantastic words like T and S or R even. But I?
Yes I!
I words sneak up on you and blow you away with their awesomeness. I love coming up with a good I word when I'm writing.
Here are a few of my favorite:
Irrevocable-Not able to be changed, reversed, or recovered; final
Iridescent- adjective 1. displaying a play of lustrous colors like those of the rainbow.
noun 2. an iridescent cloth, material, or other substance: new fall dresses of imported iridescents.
Idol- 1. a. An image used as an object of worship.
b. A false god.
2. One that is adored, often blindly or excessively.
3. Something visible but without substance.
Ignacious-possessing qualities usually attributed to a reptilian creature known as an iguana; often applied to human beings resembling such creatures.
Irrefutable- Impossible to refute or disprove; incontrovertible

ReplyDeleteInspiration and imagination are my favourites!
ReplyDeleteFunny, I always think of ignacious as a name. lol
ReplyDeleteIguana came to my mind. Not because I have one or even like them. It's just a funny word. How about idealism? Or idea?

ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to have to sneak ignacious into my WIP. I love it!
Ignominious...can't say it. My tongue won't cooperate.
ReplyDeleteI love the word imagination but there is something poetic about the word illuminous.
ReplyDeleteIdiom. :)
ReplyDeleteIdiosyncratic, and idiot, lol. Indiscriminate, insatiable, irreverent, indispensable...
ReplyDeleteWow, this A to Z challenge is odd. I think of all these cool words to blog...AFTER I have already blogged the respective letter :-)
Great post. Sometimes just words...a simple list of words is a nice departure.

ReplyDeleteAwesome "i" words and yes, I also like "inconspicuous" but probably because I am anything but that:)
ReplyDeleteCertainly idiot is one. It's just fun to say, for some reason. Idle is a great word. And my niece's name, Isabella.
