Today's word

The meaning was in my vocabulary, but the pronunciation wasn't; I would've pronounced the "qu" in the English /American manner, though I still think it should have a schwa in the second syllable:

piquant /PEE-kunt/ - 1. agreeably stimulating to the palate; especially : spicy  2. engagingly provocative; also : having a lively arch charm
