Today's Word "lubricious"
lubricious \loo-BRISH-us\ (adjective) - 1 : Lustful; lewd. 2 : Stimulating or appealing to sexual desire or imagination. 3 : Having a slippery or smooth quality.
"His imagination wanders between a wild sensuality,--so lubricious in its suggestions, now and then, as to occasion gossip to the effect that he had become a libertine..." -- Thomas Calvin, The Life and Works of Friedrich Schiller
Lubricious derives from Latin lubricus, "slippery, smooth." _________________ Roland Camilleri
