This blog is for everyone who uses words.

The ordinary-sized words are for everyone, but the big ones are especially for children.

Sunday Rest: dilf.

The origins of words can really matter, especially while they're still new.

Dilf is new.

It used to be capitalised: DILFNow it usually isn't. That helps obscure its origin, but if you want to use it to mean an older attractive man who's got children then it should be borne in mind that dilf is an acronym for Dad I'd Like [To] errmm...something or other affectionate. Fondle, perhaps?

The origins of the word dilf may eventually fade into obscurity. 

Let's hope so, anyway.

It'll still always be rather a horrid way of looking at someone, though.

Sunday Rest: dilf. 

By the way, the word fondle comes from fonnen, to be foolish, from fonne, a fool.
