vertiginous vur-TIJ-uh-nuhs, adjective:
1. Affected with vertigo; giddy; dizzy.
2. Causing or tending to cause dizziness.
3. Turning round; whirling; revolving.
4. Inclined to change quickly or frequently; inconstant.

Vertiginous derives from Latin vertigo, “a turning round, a whirling round; giddiness,” from vertere, “to turn.” Related words include reverse, “to turn back (re-) or around”; subvert, “to undermine” (from sub-, “under” + vertere; at root “to turn from under; to overturn”); and versus, “against” (from versus, “turned towards,” hence “facing, opposed,” from the past participle of vertere).

steganography (ste-GUH-nog-ruh-fee) noun

Secret communication by hiding the existence of message.

A couple of examples of steganography: shrinking the secret text (by repeated use of a photocopy machine) until it’s the size of a dot and then putting it in an unsuspected place, such as on top of a letter i in some innocuous letter. Second, shaving the head of a man, writing the secret message on his pate with unwashable ink, and then letting the hair grow back before dispatching him to the destination. To take an example from modern digital techniques, one could put the text of a message in the blank spaces in an image file.

From Greek stego- (cover) + -graphy (writing).
