Oddly enough…
I prefer the word “praeternatural” to the word “supernatural.” Super is such an overused prefix in modern English, especially given the pop culture associated with the superman TV show and movie series. Why would anyone use a particular word when there’s a delightful uncommon synonym to be found? It baffles the mind.
