lexicographical - Of or relating to lexicography

lexicography - the applied study of the meaning, evolution, and function of the vocabulary units of a language for the purpose of compilation in book form-in short, the process of dictionary making.

double dactyl - A word with two dactyls, such as counterintelligence or parliamentarian (or lexicographical)

dactyl - it is a stressed syllable followed by two unstressed syllables—the opposite is the anapaest.

anapaest - two unstressed followed by a stressed syllable - the opposite is the dactyl.

Anyway, this woman's love of words is so hot - especially when she says "lexicographical."
