poignard - a long, lightweight thrusting knife with a continuously tapering, acutely pointed blade, and a cross-guard, historically worn by the upper class, noblemen or members of the knighthood. A dagger used during the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Also called a spud in English, perhaps.

from Moorcock's Elric of Melniboné. Elric reflects with his servant and trainer Tanglebones before going into battle.

Continuing on in the first Elric book I'm struck by how few words I'm pulling. Unlike the other Appendix N works I've been reading, Moorcock seems less concerned with archaic terms or linguistic play. The straightforward writing style suits the glam cool-as-fuck energy.

breeks - the Scots word for pants or breeches

from Moorcock's Elric of Melniboné. Rack hit the Red Archer wears scarlet pants, as you'd expect.

"Meibomian gland dysfunction"

I'm forever condemned to read this as

"Melnibonian gland dysfunction"

Because as a kid I read the novels about Elric of Melniboné by Michael Moorcock.

70's paperback fantasy and the desired sword of every 15 year old kid playing (in 1981). brought us Elric and Stormbringer and we ran with it as kids. Personally I'm not as interested anymore but these books were such a part of my life that I'm keeping them, might even have them cremated with me when I make that transition!

Latest read, Sword of the Dawn (1968) by Michael Moorcock, from Sword and Runestaff.
Dorian Hawkmoon & Huillam D'Averc assault a pirate citadel in order to acquire the Sword of Dawn--but just as much fun, the swinging West End vibe with Tozer the playwright, and Hawkmoon & D'Averc shopping for new clothes.
The third book of of Hawkmoon.
