Some time ago, I signed up for Dictionary.com's Word of the Day service. The word for today (it's still Thursday to me, since I've not gone to bed yet) had an example drawn from a Realms novel. Not only that, but it's one of the Realms novels I really like.
Cutting and pasting from my e-mail:
quote: ensorcell or ensorcel \en-SOR-suhl\, transitive verb: To enchant; to bewitch.
Had she tried to ensorcell him with a charm spell? --Kate Novak and Jeff Grubb, [1]Finder's Bane
I like seeing the Realms get a nod like that from a non-fantasy source.
It's good to see that even in the high spheres of the language plane their deities are fans of the lower planes events.
"If you are to truly understand, then you will need the contrast, not adherence to a single ideal." - Kreia "I THINK I JUST HAD ANOTHER NEAR-RINCEWIND EXPERIENCE"- Discworld's Death frustrated after Rincewind scapes his grasp... again. "I am death, come for thee" - Nimbul, from Baldur's Gate I just before being badly spanked Sapientia sola libertas est
Recognition for the Realms!
