ameliorate. Only heard it used twice in normal conversation - once by my father and once by the managing partner of the company I ran. IIRC, both times it was in reference to something I needed to do.

Hang around lawyers. Some of us say it a lot.
 
Stoichiometry is a good one

Chiral (kai-rhal) is a very cool word as well.

I like saying you're welcome in Japanese. "Doo-itashimashite." どういたしまして.



I'm fascinated with new ways to describe vulgarity. I really like when a word or phrase that was otherwise perfectly innocuous is twisted into an accessible mental image. "Balloon knot."
