Tittle - I'm not sure why, but I knew this.
Frisson - is this one obscure? I thought it was pretty common. And, like Tittle, I'm finding that I don't have to add it to my browser's dictionary for it not to be underlined in red.
Petrichor - it's in a couple of episodes of Doctor Who. And Rhet and Link joke about it being a cologne, but it's actually the name of a perfume line that Amy Pond launches. Who said Doctor Who wasn't educational any more?
Interrobang - again, I didn't think this was particularly obscure.
Philtrum - there was an advert back when the internet was new which consisted of a bunch of people in an amphitheatre answering questions from various people, and one of them was a little girl asking what the groove in your lip was called and a doctor replying "philtrum. We call this your philtrum".
Mondegreen - and, once more, I didn't think this was obscure.
There were a couple I could partially work out - Parestesia was obviously a sensation of some kind, but "pare" threw me and I wondered if it was a prickling sensation with no apparent cause, like the feeling of being watched.
Dysania was obviously a malady of some kind, but I had no idea what.
Phosphene was obviously something to do with light, but I got no more than that from it.
