" Dark ..... My whole world is dark " ...... Yes , that's exactly what this word says !! If you are one of those nocturnal creatures who hates light then today's word is for you. Anyways.... lucifugous comes from the combination of Latin roots 'luci' which means 'light' and 'fugere' which means 'to flee' , as simple as that . And the pronounciation of this word goes like \loo-see-FOO-guhs\
Dictionary meaning (adjective) -- Avoiding light.
Example sentence -- I am not as lucifugous as you are .... so I need to fit a bulb in my bathroom :P
Fun Description -- VAMPIRES !! This creature had to come at first. Undoubtedly they are the most lucifugous species that we can think of (even if it's imaginary). By the way... what's the problem of vampires with light ?? I mean I am not a great vampire buff but many of "such buffs" say that their skin burns when it comes in contact with sunlight . But after I watched Twilight I saw Edward Cullen could easily walk around in daylight ..... made me scratch my head :P. By the way if any girl is reading this post right now then let me clarify I'm not saying anything against Edward anyway :P
Moving from Vampires aka Edward , lets talk about a species called human beings. If we look a bit closer then we will see that this species is far more superior than a vampire because our skin doesn't get hampered remotely by any sun light and we are lucifugous too ( I mean we don't avoid light but we tend to do prefer dark). Night Clubs, Discos , Overnight parties even Overnight studies has made us embrace night more than day. People these days feels way more lively in night and way more mortal in daylight :P Nothing against them .... rather nothing against us.
But from the next time when you come across any vampire in any tabloid form then remember that they are just not alone :)
P.S. -- Put off the light ...... you ##&@#$@!$%^&## !! :P
