Words You Never Heard

I didn't realize how much I would miss  Cwtch, that's a Welsh word meaning "to hug, or a safe welcoming place.”’ People in Sweden often send virtual hugs via text message, signing off with the word  'kram' which means to hug.  Huggle is a cross between a hug and a cuddle, and canoodling is another word for cuddling. As for those people who truly cannot tolerate hugging or touching? They would be known as haphephobic. Someone said when hugging a child, always be the last to let go, you never know how long they need it.  Hugs and thanks so very much for listening!
