    I remember hearing eudaimonia many years ago and thought that I can’t wait for it. I haven’t heard it since then and the state of the world reminds me I may never again.

      I knew flaneur as an adjective in German, for example when you go on a walk through a shopping street, without any intent of shopping you go “flanieren”. Just having a walk, looking at stores and people.

        It’s a french word too, though that usually translates more to loitering

      Yeah désuet and flâneur are as common in French as abandoned and loiterer are in English. I’d say only the first word describes something that there isn’t another common word for.

    I only know eudaimonia because it’s super advanced tech in Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri, essentially inventing utopia

    Languor isn’t usually thought of as pleasant.
