Opposite Of Souvenir?

[ToraToraTora]

The official antonym says "forfiet/loss/penalty" but that does not describe what I mean. if you climbed Everest and left picture of a family member up there for example, what would the word for that be? like a sort of reverse souvenir.

litter?

[BlackadderV]

It would be a souvenir of your achievement in reaching the summit.

[ToraToraTora]

go and troll elsewhere janbee.

jan that made me chuckle :)

Wouldn't it still be called a souvenir? Souvenirs can be given not just kept.

[TWR]

It's mine & I've achieved and succeeded where others have failed.

[ethandron]

Memorial? It doesn't have to refer to a dead person.

[Booldawg]

mememto?

[bednobs]

i would say memento too

[sandyRoe]

A marker?

[dannyk13]

Agree with memento

[DTCwordfan]

a gift? from you to the mountain but why the heck you'd want to do that, unless it was the Daily Wail, who knows?

[Old_Geezer]

Fly tipping ? Littering ?

[BlackadderV]

Memento and souvenir are synonyms. They both mean a token of remembrance; the former is Latin, the latter French.

[ToraToraTora]

ok, I always think of a momento as something I take away rather than leave behind. Thanks for having a go though.

[DTCwordfan]

a present? an offering perhaps?

[Retrochic]

A vestige

[ToraToraTora]

yeah go and troll with janbee OG. Have you jokers considered this may be something I have to do for personal reasons?

[ToraToraTora]

...and thanks to all those that had an attempt at the question in the spirit it is intended.

[Old_Geezer]

You asked a question, you got a genuine answer.

[Tilly2]

a memoriam.
