Words that feel good to use, but you never get to use

[LOVEthroughINTELLECT]

A variation of [thread=2549064]this thread[/thread].

Are there any words that feel good to you to use but you never really get to use them?

I have thought of one: pugnacious.

Phonetically I like the way that it feels to think or utter that word--the way that it resonates with my brain. But I could probably count on one hand the number of times that I will ever use it.

Once, I was talking about that word with a friend. He had never heard it. I tried to define it and use it in a sentence. It means "eager to compete", I said. "Pete Rose was pugnacious", I said.
