    Verknutterd 14 months ago

    I actually coined a new term in another language. Do I get bonus points?

    Went to visit Knut, the baby polarbear at the Berlin Zoo. But Knut wasn’t a cute cuddly bear anymore, he was big and undistinguishable from the other polarbears. So I ended up photographing 4 bears, hoping one of them was Knut.

    We were so incredibly disappointed at this that we had to think up a word just to be able to express our feelings clearly. This got to be ‘verknutterd’. SO in German you can say ‘Ich bin Verknutterd’, which means ‘I’m incredibly, incredibly disappointed’



    "Expoundify" 3 years ago

    It’s “expound”, and so much more! I’ve used this term for the last two or three years, in phrases such as, “Elucidate and expoundify,” or “That’s very interesting: do expoundify!”

    I do this all the time... 4 years ago

    My tongue gets in the way of my eye teeth and I can’t see what I’m saying.

    I talk so fast, I usually blend two or more words together and end up with a brand new word…



    Feeding my ego 4 years ago

    I want to coin a term, or phrase, which everyone ends up using. I’ll make my own little semi-permanent addition to the English language in this way. It’ll be fun.
