The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows

The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows is a project by John Koenig that creates invented words for unspoken complex human emotions. It began as a 2009 blog, expanded into a video series, and released a 2021 New York Times bestselling book. An independent associated website allows users to submit their own original invented emotion words, with user submissions released under a CC Zero license.
