Why “exnihilation” is a great word
EXNIHILATION — [Noun] The act of bringing something into existence from nothing. From Latin ex ("from, out of") + nihil ("nothing"), on the model of annihilation. Unlike creation, which implies shaping a substrate, or annihilation, its conceptual inverse, exnihilation specifies an origin in absolute void. It is the theologian's divine fiat, the physicist's singularity flaring into being, and the artist's first mark on a blank canvas—the profound disturbance of a universe by the mere fact of a thing.
