Morose I was reading some entries here on Italki and I came across this word 'Morose' which is new to me. I searched for its translation and it is translated as 'taciturno' and even when is in spanish I didn't know its meaning , this is not a very common word I've only heard it in a song. This song is called 'Fotografias' and its sang by Juanes and Nelly Furtado. I searched for the meaning of this word and I found out that it means a deep sense of sadness and melancholy and that the same feeling the song I talked about evokes. That's the perfect song to hear on a rainy day like this. Im actually listening to it while I'm writing, the only thing missing here is a cup of hot chocolate and sweet bread.

Morose is a great word, though somewhat rare in modern English (as is the word melancholy). I put corrections in green and anything optional in brackets. Just a few small errors. And discovering words on a rainy day with a cup of hot chocolate sounds lovely :)

mmmmm de acuerdo a la RAE si, pero quiza no es la manera que la que se usa comunmente taciturno, na. (Del lat. taciturnus). 1. adj. Callado, silencioso, que le molesta hablar. 2. adj. Triste, melancólico o apesadumbrado.

I don't think morose means taciturn in English. Morose = lúgubre, triste Taciturn = que no habla mucho
