What's an obsolete or incredibly obscure word you think people should know?

Overmorrow refers to the day after tomorrow and I feel like it comes in quite handy for example.

Übermorgen, the german word for overmorrow, is in abundant use in Germany. It's far from obsolete or obscure over here.
- Same for overmogen in the Netherlands. And eergisteren for the day before yesterday.
  
  In Poland it's "pojutrze" - after tomorrow, and "przedwczoraj" - before yesterday (those are also literal translations just as i wrote). Also in common and constant usage.
- Same for the Romanian "poimâine" (after tomorrow). We also have "alaltăieri" (the other yesterday). They are in use, quite common.
