Sylph

Pronounced:(silf)

Noun. A slim, graceful woman or girl.


Eg. I learned this word from my office elevator. I get a lot of news and information from that elevator monitor in the mornings. Anyways, when Sarah and I were at church one day, we were walking down to the children's classrooms with cups of hot tea. We were trying not to spill the tea as we were walking slowly and carefully down the stairs. All of a sudden, this Sylph comes walking down past us with a cup of hot coffee filled to the rim. That sylph was walking in high heels too. We couldn't believe how she could walk so fast without spilling any coffee. It was unreal.
