conquistador

This word, according to the lovely WORDCOUNT site (which I discovered, in a roundabout way, via Tony Robinson's site), is currently the 86,800th most popular in the English language. (It's also the final word in wordcount's long list). It also seems worth noting that "love" ranks 384 whereas "hate" ranks 3,107. "Money", however, is the 227th most popular word, and "poetry" fell below even "hate", at 3,235.
