Invent a word, invent a meaning.
« on: May 02, 2012, 02:53:37 am »
A revival from the old forum.

I will post a list of words I have invented. I will define if they are nouns, verbs etc., etc. Decide what they might mean. The bold can even go as far as giving an example of useage.

Feel free to post your own made up words.

Here's a starter list:

1 )  ploggle (v)

2 )  billwhipple (n)

3 )  snart (adj)

4 )  grotfoster (v)

5 )  feegle (adj)

6 )  popply (adv)

7 )  burdle (v)

8 )  borkbork (n)

9 )  swithle (v)

10 )  hoaven (adj)
Part wolf, part pirate.

That reminds me, last week or thereabouts in IRC I coined a new expression. We took a vote on it and decided that from now on when somebody says something that inadvertently says something racist, that is called a Santorumian slip.
