That's cool. :grin: So you have something in common with Shakespeare. (He invented a lot of words too, which found their way into English.)
I make up new words all the time, but none have caught on.
I taught a kid once in Japan, who made up the word "Tako-pus", which is Octopus (Japanese for Octopus is "Tako")
Foop = a substitute swear word. Doesn't make my mouth any cleaner -- I still use the regular ones on a regular basis. :twisted:
Im not sure it is made up or not but 1 of my friends from High School always used "Gauker" (pronounced gaw-ka) which means look as in "Give me a Gauker" = "Give me a look" & I use it all the time now lol. People that weren't in my group (which is alot there was only 5 of us) never know what it means & i always have to say its another word for look.
actually now that I think about it more Gauker is pronounced more like "gour-ka"
I speak like a *** too. Most sentences are "did ya see the **** thing that ****** on to the *** yesterfucking day.
But, I'm Irish, so it's not too uncommon.
I made up a word unintentionally, it's "Bothe". Everytime I try and write both and the together I right Bothe automatically, I used to have to go back over essays and stuff and edit these types of errors, but now I leave them in, people seem to like the word.
vomitrocious (vomit + atrocious)
Crapulous (full of crappiness)
Craptacular (Crap + Spectacular)
