5 World Wide Words to add in Your Dictionary! Initially I also thought these are risqué words

I received an email with the word "cockamamie" from the boss today. And I actually had to Google to get the exact meaning of the word. (And if or once you know the meaning, please keep wondering the context of the email. :p )

Well having a boss with excellent vocabulary has its own privileges. Words get delivered in your inbox even when you haven't subscribed for "word of the day" email.
Though I initially feared it's a risqué word but it isn't.

Then I researched a bit more on words history and added 5 urbanish words which sound a bit indecent but they are not.
And these words are actually used by the novelists, magazine editors etc. at some point of time.

You can also add these words in your regular vocabulary to make more global and intense. 

Cockamamie

Cock a Snook

Poppycock

Cockaigne

Coxcomb

My mantra for learning every day is simple.
Observe. Google. Learn!
This is what I learnt today.
