    Odyssey no longer feels like a word. Damn you, semantic saturation!

      Wow, I really hate to be this pedantic, but it’s semantic satiation. I only remember because I had a similar experience thinking it was “saturation” because it just makes more sense, but apparently we’re wrong.

        No need to apologise, this is the kind of thing I hate getting wrong. Satiation. Satiation.
        Hopefully it will stick in the future.
