According to the 1500 Poetry Society, ‘Diaphanous’ is the most beautiful word in the English language and it took me back to my elementary and secondary schools.I was reading a column and reached ‘Diaphanous’.

I remembered one of the girls who won a scholarship in a big-time convent asked, ‘Where did you go to high school?’ I jumped up quickly and shouted, ‘A ladder! A ladder!’ The teacher was coming with a stick to drop on me and I ran outside to hide. But I got so interested in words that I forgot to go home and my father came with his car and my belt. I never thought that, as one group said, it was ‘Smelly!’ At least not what children had as fun and learning at the same time.

These are some that I loved, including Colossal: (Extremely large or huge); Dazzling: (Extremely bright or impressive): Gargantuan (Enormous or giant-sized); Gleeful: (Full of joy and happiness); Mischievous: (Playfully naughty, often in a fun way); Radian: (Sending out light or shining brightly); Scrupulous: (Extremely delicious to eat); Serene: (Calym, peaceful, and undisturbed); and Tipto: (To walk quietly on our toes). Given those, the ‘Diaphanous’ was just an adjective for something so light, delicate, and fine in texture that it is almost completely transparent or translucent. It generally refers to fabrics (like silk, chiffon, or gauze) that allow us to see through them. Also, it can be applied to mist, wings, or ethereal forms.
