Awesome

The origin of "awesome" was "something that inspires awe". Today the word has evolved to common slang. The original meaning has become somewhat forgotten; the idea of something being awe-inspiring is now shortened to it just being "awesome".

ie: He had the awesome idea of getting the family together for a much needed road trip.

ie: The Grand Canyon is an awesome sight!

ie: This song is awesome, I am buying it today.
