Lachrymose is a cool word, meaning tearful or sadness inducing, also “tears” is “lágrimas” in Portuguese and Spanish!

I usually feel lachrymose with the whole passage of time every new year, but 2025 was dogshit for myself and others, and I'm glad it's finally over. Hopefully 2026 will be better.

Does anyone else who does word puzzles get that thing where the brain invents a solution then keeps returning to it, refusing to accept it's not a real word?

Today's specimen is SORROWMOOSE, a lachrymose Canadian animal with vague dreams of joining a commedia dell'arte troupe.
