Why “rounceval” is a great word
ROUNCEVAL — [Adjective, Noun] As an adjective, it means gigantic; as a noun, it denotes a giant, any large thing, or specifically a large marrowfat pea. From the place name Roncesvalles (Roncevaux), a mountain pass in the Pyrenees, from the gigantic bones of legendary heroes said to have been displayed there. Unlike "colossal," which suggests an abstract monumentality, or "marrowfat," which merely names a variety of pea, rounceval is bigness freighted with legend and loam. It is the imagined femur of Roland in a mountain shrine, the swollen pod of a pea in a July garden, and the palpable bulk of a folktale giant—a word for outsized things that belong equally to epic and to the vegetable patch, quietly measuring the human need to magnify the mundane into the monumental.
