Just think that in the next edition of the Oxford English Dictionary that word and definition may well appear. I do like how it is used and can see quite a lot of usage for it.
Ya never know 😉
so funny, i love new, made- up words
😀 Thanks!
What FUN! Love it. We can all start using immediately. Thinking about our government makes all of us feel lunicidal.
Feel free to use it at will and often

All the best writers do 😉
Melanie, I LOVE this word!! Now I know what to call “how I get”!! And occasionally I’ve made up a word–here’s my fave: “Lazulitopian”, citizen of a perfect world all in blue…(Lazulitopia) 🙂 I think I may have a poem somewhere about it…for certain, I had blog with that title…
😀 Glad you like it and already have a way to use it 😀
Lazulitopian… how cool! Do you have a link for the poem??
It’s from an old blog–so I’ll have to find the poem and repost here 🙂
Ya!! I coined and use “Yonkers”!

Reblogged this on A Better Man and commented:
New words anyone?
Thanks for sharing 😉
Hi Melanie! Yes, I do all the time. I learned it from a brilliant poet who never feared to make up words if they fit! 🙂
