from Word of the Day · host Word of the Day
Jouissance is a noun that refers to physical or intellectual pleasure. The French word juir (ghweere) means ‘to enjoy.’ From this our word of the day has come to enter English. Here’s an example of it in use: I could see the joy on my daughter’s face when I took her to the circus. She clearly took delight in seeing all that joyous activity.
