Why this word is great
STRAVAIGER — [Noun] One who stravaigs; a person who wanders or strolls aimlessly. From Scots stravaig ("to wander aimlessly"), itself from earlier extravage ("to ramble in talk"), influenced by Latin extravagari ("to wander outside"), from extra ("outside") + vagari ("to wander"). Unlike "wanderer" (a neutral term for one without fixed course) or "saunterer" (suggesting leisurely pleasure), a stravaiger moves without intent, neither seeking nor finding. They are the figure disappearing down a country lane at dusk, the shadow tracing the perimeter of an empty park, the footsteps that pause at every shop window but never enter—a life measured not in destinations, but in the unspooling of idle hours.
