algid
[al-jid]
adjective: cold or chilly
|
Algid describes something cold or frosty. You won't hear the word much today, but you were more likely to encounter it in the 1800s. So if you find yourself reaching for a coat — and an old-fashioned way to describe the cold — algid might be just the word. |
Example: She shivered uncontrollably after stepping out into the algid winter wind.
