juju \JOO-joo\, noun:

1. An object superstitiously believed to embody magical powers.
2. The power associated with a juju.

WTF is a juju? Isn't that what I'm trying to find out by getting this word of the day?

Discuss this and other words that may be related to your username.

Mine is a direct Latin word meaning time of life, this period of time, season, etc.

My username is a nickname Chris gave me.

And lawl. When I think of juju it reminds me of the name of a game I've heard of... Tak and the Power of Juju or something?

My name is derived from Latin, it means life. It's also the name of a hair care product.

Mine means fox in Japanese.

I asked a friend of mine who happened to be fluent in Japanese to come up with a nice sounding Japanese word that didn't translate to something ridiculous or boring. After a few failed attempts he said Kitsune

....

Interesting. Is this friend on Codex by any chance?
And there are plenty of other cool sounding yet eloquent in meaning Japanese words. Some of them just don't translate well into English

Ali, Ali is a name of a person I respect greatly; that person changed my life in terms of the way I go about things and my overall mindset. It's a good name (And not just because of the aforementioned reason!)

so my friend was talking to one of his friends one day and she asked him "why do they call it 'homicide'?"

"that means murder, or kill someone"

"so what would 'murdercide' mean?"

"ummm... murderkill?"

so he told me, and we ended up writing a song about it called "murderkill"

Yeah, I think there was a cartoon called Tak and the power of Juju...I didn't really think that was a word. Oh, and it was a pretty stupid cartoon. My name is supposedly the man (I've always assumed it was a man) that came to get you before you die. Pleasant stuff...lol.

I was like 12 and thought the word random was cool.
It wasn't.

Mine comes from my profinity to taste things. As well as uh, a longstanding joke relating to my looks among the male friends of mine.




I wonder if there's some latin routes there.
