miasma
This is a continuation of my series of posts on new words that I learn from my reading.
miasma
noun: a highly unpleasant or unhealthy smell or vapor
Jeremy’s usage: “The miasma of spoiled milk that hit me when I cleaned out my son’s milk cup (which had gone missing for a day), was thick enough you could taste it.â€
I read it in this book: Never Eat Alone by Keith Ferrazzi
