  • Season 2 is when Moira started to discover her arcane lexicon, and it really took off in season 3! I scoured every scene featuring Moira and picked out the words I thought we'd all enjoy hearing her say some of these wacky words again, and a brief definition in case the context clues weren't enough. Most, if not all, of the definitions have been shortened for time and readability.

    Moira's oral fluency and articulatory finesse is truly an enviable accomplishment of the highest order! Kudos to her imaginative engine of verbal finery!

      Well, perhaps focus less on putting strings of fancy-sounding words together. Moira's use of words is not prolix but terse and accurate.

      I agree. I think part of the appeal of it is the context in which she uses the words and to whom she's speaking. Her daughter is quite clearly a bit hollow headed so when she uses words with more than two syllables it confuses her daughter.
