Today I learned the word Puissant!

adjective: puissant

having great power or influence.

//

The context was “Some of us have more and more puissant sweat glands than others.”

Usually used to refer to somebody like a king, or somebody with great power in a community, I like the use of it here too! The word seems to be pretty archaic but it still seems fun to use!

    Cool! I like when french words sneak their way in to English. Our language is such a hodgepodge of other languages anyways, but the French based ones are frequently more fun to use/say. No clue why.
