Today in the wonderful world of words we have:
Stanchless, an adjective defined as incessant or, so helpful here, not to be stanched.
With storm as part of the word, seems to me, the definition should be more like:
A stanchless assigning of blame.
It can be used as a verb as in:
Sorry. NO. Antigodlin – obvs the word needs a g at the end and what it RILLY means is this:
Someone who is opposed to small time, local gods e.g.: The Black Hats – gods of conspiracy theories or Ēostre – goddess of dawn.
Nacreous is an adjective defined as resembling nacre or mother-of-peal; lustrous; pearly.
Lovely but NO. Sounds far more devilish and, possibly, cadaverous. Like:
appearing to travel faster than the speed of light
OK but there needs to be a secondary definition. Like so:
Superluminal
The past tense is defenestrated. It awesomely means:
to throw (someone) out of a window.
How cool is it that there's a word for this?
to remove or dismiss (someone) from a position of power or authority.
Concupiscent, an adjective defined as lustful or sensual.
The word just does NOT convey this beautiful meaning. No, it does not. Concupiscent sounds way more like something you have to do at the doctor’s office. Ya know, like the nurse at your doc's office who tells you to go into the bathroom to provide a midstream sample in this here Dixie cup. It's a verb – you've got to go concupisce.
Honest!
Excogitate is a verb which means to think out; devise; invent.
Considering that cogitate means to think deeply about something. EXcogitate should be defined as
1) to cease thinking or never even bother to start.
2) to ponder frivolously.
Brontide is a noun. a rumbling noise heard occasionally in some parts of the world, probably caused by seismic activity.
Wrong! It’s missing an umlaut and is clearly a literary reference.
adjective or adverb
happening or done in secret. confidentially; secretly; privately.
Specifically, it refers to being below or beneath the roses. Clearly this is a euphemism for death.
pertaining to or resembling alchemy; alchemic.or noun:
A spagyric is an herbal medicine produced by alchemical procedures. These procedures involve fermentation, distillation, and extraction of mineral components from the ash of the plant.
Dunno but this word puts spirochetes in mind and you’d need WAY more than a spagyric to get rid of those.
Adultescent
noun
a middle-aged person whose clothes, interests, and activities are typically associated with youth culture.
Yeah. I got nothing to add to this beyond that it sounds a little tumorous. Probably benign but, still, I’d get it removed posthaste!
Omnifarious is an adjective meaning of all forms, varieties, or kinds.
Sure but it sounds a little evil. Clearly someone who’s omnifarious is abominably egregious in all ways. See Trump and his Republican lackeys.
Emmm, you're welcome.
Stanchless, an adjective defined as incessant or, so helpful here, not to be stanched.
Kathy’s stanchless, dull speech caused fits of dire somnolence from which, I was certain, I’d never recover.My new favorite word is Blamestorming. It's a noun meaning the process of assigning blame for an outcome or situation.
With storm as part of the word, seems to me, the definition should be more like:
A stanchless assigning of blame.
It can be used as a verb as in:
I could blamestorm for the next 10 years straight and still not cover all the ills which Twitler and his Republican/Fascist have brought about.Antigodlin is an adjective. The formal, assigned definition is askew – at an angle.
Sorry. NO. Antigodlin – obvs the word needs a g at the end and what it RILLY means is this:
Someone who is opposed to small time, local gods e.g.: The Black Hats – gods of conspiracy theories or Ēostre – goddess of dawn.
Nacreous is an adjective defined as resembling nacre or mother-of-peal; lustrous; pearly.
Lovely but NO. Sounds far more devilish and, possibly, cadaverous. Like:
His pallor was nacreous – I didn’t suppose he’d survive for much longer.Superluminal– MORE adjectives!
appearing to travel faster than the speed of light
OK but there needs to be a secondary definition. Like so:
Baldr, Norse god of light, joy, purity and summer sun |
A, possibly, fictional superhero known for his/her ability to control light. See also Baldr, Artemis, Ao, Sól and BelisamaDefenestrate is a wonderful verb and has fuck all, rilly, to do with outdoor, yard enclosing walls.
The past tense is defenestrated. It awesomely means:
to throw (someone) out of a window.
How cool is it that there's a word for this?
”she had made up her mind that the woman had been defenestrated, although the official verdict had been suicide”From John Scalsi:
“A lawyer is here.”OK, it also means:
“Toss him out a window.”
“Her, actually, I think.”
“So toss her out, then. Equally defenestratable.”
to remove or dismiss (someone) from a position of power or authority.
The Orange Chaos Demon, his cabinet, V.P. Dense and their myriad enablers need to be defenestrated before the next election.Ya know, either definition works for that sentence.
Concupiscent, an adjective defined as lustful or sensual.
The word just does NOT convey this beautiful meaning. No, it does not. Concupiscent sounds way more like something you have to do at the doctor’s office. Ya know, like the nurse at your doc's office who tells you to go into the bathroom to provide a midstream sample in this here Dixie cup. It's a verb – you've got to go concupisce.

Heh. Thank you for your contributions to improving the language.
ReplyDeleteBaldr? Baldr than who? Years ago I told a neighbor that the lock on his apartment window should be called an "indefenestrability enhancement mechanism". He was mildly amused.

We're going to need a lot of new words to express the variegated and abominably egregious evil of the Trumplings.

DeleteI think you and I are up to lexeme struggle ahead :-)
Spagyric is what we do with kombucha, We don't ferment it, nor brew it or even culture it, as I learned way back in the hippie dayz, we spagyric kombucha. OK, not Infidel's spagyric, but, it's not that far off!
ReplyDeleteI saw that, slipped it right in there, ya' did 😎
As long as there are tacos and NO criminal VPs involved, I guess I'm cool with this particular word :-)
