fidgetspin.livejournal.comI'm glad I chose this word which showed up in a book I'm reading because it turns out that it doesn't mean what I assumed it did from the context AND I was pronouncing it wrong.
Puissant [pyoo-uh-suh
nt, pyoo-is-uhnt, pwis-uhnt] Powerful; mighty; potent.
Origin:
1400–50; late ME < MF < VL *possent- (s. of *possēns), for L potent- (s. of potēns), prp. of posse to be able, have power
An aura of puissance seemed to envelope me as a pwned Allies during Arathi Basin weekend. It's amazing the difference my new Puissant Cape makes!
