verisimilar
seeming to be true or real; plausible; likely
from Dict., above verisimillitude
The roots mean "very + similar". I give up, this is the laziest word ever.

A project started recently. I am keeping a hard-copy log of dictionary use: every time I look up a word, whether it is completely new, or I desire a more precise understanding of it, I write the date, time, definition, and source of the word.
I decided to create an online version of this as well, to share with other book- and word-lovers. My dictionary is a heavily-used book; I recommend cultivating an interest in yours.

You are right. It is the laziest word ever. Kind of German in how it was made (stick them together). Having said that, I like it.
