Have you ever made up words?

[Stop_the_War]

[Aristus]

1. What the himnoflabbit kind of question is that?

:-)

[Magrittes Pipe]

2. Just "dumbhole."

It is a special word, reserved for special occasions.

[dbt]

3. Mediacracy is mine.

Made it up in 1976 and been watching it come true since 1981.

:argh:

[kedrys]

4. Yes, I've neologized on occasion

I love that the English language is so plastic :)

I wish I'd invented "f*cknozzle". I use it all the time.

[maveric]

5. I do when attempting automotive repair. They are very BAD words too.

Too BAD for Longue.

[Emops]

6. "Longue?"

Is that one of the words?

As for me..."Fudgemonkey" (a mild swear)

[maveric]

9. Allright! You caught me in a brain fart!

I hate it when I do that!

[skygazer]

7. I do it all the time

Usually inadvertantly. My hubby is a master at it. He can speak fluent gibberish with the best of them.

[Speck Tater]

8. When somebody sneezes...

.. I say gesunderbluss. It's my invented cross between gesundheit, bless you, and blunderbuss.

[Left Is Write]

10. Who, me?

The lexicubbie?

[redqueen]

11. Yes, 'kerflapple'.

As in: I can't answer intelligently right now, I'm all kerflappled.

(pronounced like her-waffle)

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

12. I like to think I created "yummilicious"

[nytemare]

13. "Constarrhea" and "Insomnolepsy"

You know, when you eat something bad and get really painful gassy cramps like diarrhea, but you can't go.

That stuff.

And Insomnolepsy is when you can't get to sleep for a long time, then when you finally do, you don't want to wake your ass up.
