Increasing your vocabulary

Have a look at this website of lost words: http://phrontistery.info/clw1.html

Its called "The Phrontistery" and features words such as:

crassulentadj1656 -1656
very fat; grossly obese

Some words date back to the 1400's. Its an interesting read and perhaps some words deserve to be reintroduced into poetry and prose. Even everyday speech. Well, not everyday but every otherday?
