quisquous (KWIZ-kwuhs) - adj., baffling, perplexing.


A self-describing word, as no one who's met this in Peter Bowler's Superior Person's Book of Words seems to have met this, or have any idea where it's from. It LOOKS Latin, possibly something to do with quis, who, but, well, who knows? Killer Scrabble word, though.

* At a guess.
