Sep 2, 2011 at 8:04 comment added Joubarc @Andrew you mean, a word that applies to itself? That would be worth a question by itself, but for the fact the answer is easily found. Such a word is autologique. A word that does not apply to itself is hétérologique. « Hétérologique » est-il hétérologique ? is a common paradox.
