I was just admiring the word paucity and how fitting a little word it is when put to appropriate use, so I thought I’d leave it here where it could be admired by an appreciative crowd.

I’ve always loved paucity.  However it creates a strange tension in my mind because it seems it must be related to “paunch” and yet the meanings don’t, well, they seem rather opposite.

As I understand things, one of the meanings of “paunch” is “a growing collection of many paucity.”
