for the record, the "Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows" (in which anemoia appears) was an art project by John Koenig. every word defined in this dictionary was constructed/invented specifically for the book. afaik, none of them have entered "mainstream" dictionaries yet (although dictionary aggregators do tend to include them) but i think it's only a matter of time. there are a lot of great words in there -- i think 'sonder' in particular is an incredibly useful word.

- dugmartin 2y agoGood to know, but it does seem to me that anemoia is perfectly cromulent.
