Why this word is great
EXORNATE — [Verb] To embellish, adorn, or decorate with artistry and completeness. From Latin exōrnātus, past participle of exōrnāre ("to furnish, adorn"), from ex- ("out") + ōrnāre ("to equip, adorn"). Unlike "decorate" (which is utilitarian) or "garnish" (which is fleeting and often culinary), "exornate" implies a deliberate, almost ceremonial act of beautification. It is the gold leaf painstakingly applied to a medieval manuscript, the intricate embroidery on a royal robe, or the way ivy climbs and softens the harsh edges of a stone wall—not merely covering, but transforming, as if the act of adornment were itself a quiet argument against the plainness of the world.
