Here are two words that I had heard but didn't know the meaning of, till I looked 'em up on
dictionary.com. Love new words. I previously thought the second one meant kind of cranky and disaffected*. But then I also used to think Pakistan was to the north east of India.
Priapic:
- Of, relating to, or resembling a phallus; phallic.
- Relating to or overly concerned with masculinity.
Peripatetic:
- Walking about or from place to place; traveling on foot, itinerant
- Of or relating to the philosophy or teaching methods of Aristotle, who conducted discussions while walking about in the Lyceum of ancient Athens.
*as in..what is my peripatetic boyfriend up to today? Works with the real meaning as well though. (Hi baby, keep up the good work..)

Well, truth be told, Bangladesh, which is to the north-east of India was originally called East Pakistan after it got independence from the evil® British Empire, so you were kinda right.
But there's still no excuse for not knowing where Belgium was...
