One of my favorites has always been defenestrate – to throw someone out a window. Imagine a time when enough people were being thrown out windows that we decided we needed a word for it!
You wallydrag! Lol. It does sound pretty funny.
I don’t mean to be a sneckdraw, but fampling my children today was just enough to make me girn. Oh, and defenestrating is, unfortunately, not practiced enough these days, ya know?
Another definition of wallydrag — my boss! And not only is defenestration not practiced enough these days, neither is flensing. I have several neighbors who would benefit from it.
haha my english teacher called me #8 after over hearing a very profain conversation between me and a friend…then she sent me up to the principal
just thought id share
also the definition for #3 made me laugh so hard i almost peed my pants
Ian, we need a word for that, laughing so hard you pee your pants.
Does anyone know if there is one?
Make one up.
torn: How about
dripulate-laughing so hard you pee your pants
Yeah I made it up
I already knew ‘glossolalia’, because I’ve seen it happen at least once in churches I’ve visited.
Half of these words made me think ‘wow, there’s a word for that? Awesome!’ I especially loved the definition of ‘wample’, though the word itself leaves something to be desired (seriousness).
I checked almost all the words in WordWeb, and most of them didn’t even show up. The few that do (girn, hircine, etc.), I now plan to use in my NaNoWriMo book!
I am not a Sneckdraw but more a Nazzard(NOT). This list caused me to Cachinnate. Labrose as I am I am glad I’m not a Onychotillomaniac! (pity I always wanted to be a maniac of some sort) I will stop Glossolalia and wish you all a good day
FekketCantenel / NZSpringy: I love using these words in pleasant conversation and just getting that deer-in-the-headlights look from my temporarily captivated audience! Funny stuff!
I think all of these words have been used atleast once by the mars volta!
HKB: I would say you are likely correct. I have a few of their albums and for both being from such ethnic backgrounds they sure know the English language inside and out!
great list… im gonna use these words.
hahaha dripulate i love it
i think this list needs a notable ommisions and dripulate should be in it…
jamie make it happen
–Cant say I’ve ever heard of any of these or will remember them…allready have forgotten, or will ever use them(seeing that I cant remember them …((allready forgotten))
Not to say that this isnt an informative list.
I thought the “glabella” was a laser dot from a long range riffle, pointed from long range by a sniper.
awkward smile face icon goes here.
as is indicated by my username thingy, defenestrate is one of my favorite words. ever.
Misodoctakleidist… i’m going to try to use this one tomorrow… heheheheh.
“yerd” is great, too. “mooooom! he yerded me!!!”
another fun word that i just feel like including: boondoggle.
I definately know sesamoid being so familiar with horse anatomy. Do people have them though?
Update: Humans do have sesamoid bones, however perhaps with the exception of the patella, they are not quite as critical in humans as they are in the horse’s soundness. Thanks, wikipedia. =D
I ran a race against this bozo the other day. I thought I had won, but I only yerked.
For #25 that should be “bare” and not “bear” one’s teeth.
Jim: you are right – corrected – thanks.
Well, I am an onychotillomaniac and a onygophagist.
Contrary to popular belief, I am not a wallydrag nor am I hircine (although, I’m not sure I’m using that in the right context, is it more of a ovine, porcine meaning?)
Another great list. This is fast becoming my favourite website.
Twenty questions?
Okay.
Um… is it Sesamoid?
Hircine?
Ah the practicle applications.
Under the sub-heading “Words 10-6″, check out the meaning of the word ‘Shatner’.
I’m cachinnating!!
I’ll try to use all 25 of these words in this paragraph (It may not make any sense and I may use these in the wrong context, but this is still fun):
After receiving a call from the school principal about his son’s coproplalomaniac ways, and his teasing of a dendrofilous classmate who wamfles and wears ribazuba jewelry, Ben girned when his son Bob came home and Ben looked at Bob with piercing eyes. He then yerked Bob to a chair and yerded him, saying, “You sneckdraw! That hircine lip of yours must undergo severe chastisement. You wallydrag!” Bob only cacchinated about this because he thought that what his father Ben is saying is mere glossolalia. Ben continues to beat up Bob on his glabella until…
Something in his conscience tells him to leave his son alone and think of better ways to relieve himself of his anger. In those past years, it was always the sight of his wife that calms him down.
To relieve himself of his utter rage, he left the son home alone and went somewhere to reminisce on his hesternal moments with his wife who passed away years ago. He remembered the old times when he met a labrose, gash-gabbit woman who he was attracted to. Aside from that, he, as a crurophilous man, was actually attracted to her simply because she was wearing a miniskirt. Also, he noticed men in black who were trying to steal the woman’s purse. Ben simply ran towards them and punched one of them on the tummy. Just because of this, all of them ran away crying home to their mommas. Oh…they are such nazzards, don’t ya think?
Anyway, to go on, the woman thanked him for saving her life. So, he did not hesitate anymore even a bit to introduce himself to her. Although he noticed this right away in her, he was not turned off although she is an onychotillomaniac and an onygophagist. The timing was just right, they were both hungry at the time, so Ben did not hesitate to invite her to dinner at a restaurant where the piano is played to set the ambiance.
In this restaurant, his favorite was their specialty: sesamoid rice mixed with all sorts of meats and spices, seasoned further with soy sauce. While they were doing some small talk, they franched on the food, saying too that the food is delicious.
Although this was embarrassing on Ben’s part, what he didn’t know is that after he left home at 18, his father established the same restaurant where he is eating in at this very moment. When Ben was a young boy, his dad was forcing him to play the piano, yet he is such a misodoctakleidist, and often told his dad that playing the piano just isn’t his thing. At that moment, Ben’s dad was walking around the restaurant to see if the customers are happy about their service and food. He stopped at Ben’s place and, forgetting to remove the microphone on his mouth which is supposed to be used for public announcements, he said, “Son! Is that you? Come! Play the piano and give my pianist some rest!” Everyone was looking. “Over the years, now, son, you must be really good at playing the piano…” He looked at the woman. “Now, looks like you’ve got a lady friend. Impress her and show her what you’ve got!”
He pointed to the piano near the mullion and asked Ben to step towards the piano. Since he’s got nothing, everyone laughed at him, but for him as of now, this was fun to remember.
Now that he’s a bit calmer, he was walking in the park and he saw a poor kid who was wearing tattered clothes and was hungry. Moved with pity, he fampled him by giving him something to eat and tried cheering him up, telling him that there is still hope to come. Ben realized that he is now ready to go home and talk to his son in an appropriate, non-physical manner.
Whew! That was hard to do!
Okay, that was a looooong comment I made. Please tell me if I missed any of the words listed above, and, by the way, this list sure made me dripulate. (for the definition of dripulate see comment no. 9)
Latly, the paragraph above is a work of pure fiction and I am not using this as reference to anyone or anything.
WOW!
Lastly, the paragraph above is a work of pure fiction and I am not using this as reference to anyone or anything.

ok um . . . not to be a party crasher but, are these even real words?! I MEAN WHO THE HECK JUST TALKS LIKE THIS?! but anyway, i guess this did help me get my homework done so . . . erm . . . thanx . . .

I for one would know all the words because i am the head professor at the University of Harvard. If anyone would like to see me or contact me call Harvard University and ask for the head of Literature, my name is Willy Dribble.

I’ll try to use all 25 of these words in this paragraph (It may not make any sense and I may use these in the wrong context, but this is still fun):
After receiving a call from the school principal about his son’s coproplalomaniac ways, and his teasing of a dendrofilous classmate who wamfles and wears ribazuba jewelry, Ben girned when his son Bob came home and Ben looked at Bob with piercing eyes. He then yerked Bob to a chair and yerded him, saying, “You sneckdraw! That hircine lip of yours must undergo severe chastisement. You wallydrag!” Bob only cacchinated about this because he thought that what his father Ben is saying is mere glossolalia. Ben continues to beat up Bob on his glabella until…
Something in his conscience tells him to leave his son alone and think of better ways to relieve himself of his anger. In those past years, it was always the sight of his wife that calms him down.
To relieve himself of his utter rage, he left the son home alone and went somewhere to reminisce on his hesternal moments with his wife who passed away years ago.

Aside from that, he, as a crurophilous man, was actually attracted to her simply because she was wearing a miniskirt. Also, he noticed men in black who were trying to steal the woman’s purse.

I’ll try to use all 25 of these words in this paragraph (It may not make any sense and I may use these in the wrong context, but this is still fun):
After receiving a call from the school principal about his son’s coproplalomaniac ways, and his teasing of a dendrofilous classmate who wamfles and wears ribazuba jewelry, Ben girned when his son Bob came home and Ben looked at Bob with piercing eyes. He then yerked Bob to a chair and yerded him, saying, “You sneckdraw! That hircine lip of yours must undergo severe chastisement. You wallydrag!” Bob only cacchinated about this because he thought that what his father Ben is saying is mere glossolalia. Ben continues to beat up Bob on his glabella until…
Something in his conscience tells him to leave his son alone and think of better ways to relieve himself of his anger. In those past years, it was always the sight of his wife that calms him down.
To relieve himself of his utter rage, he left the son home alone and went somewhere to reminisce on his hesternal moments with his wife who passed away years ago. He remembered the old times when he met a labrose, gash-gabbit woman who he was attracted to. Aside from that, he, as a crurophilous man, was actually attracted to her simply because she was wearing a miniskirt. Also, he noticed men in black who were trying to steal the woman’s purse. Ben simply ran towards them and punched one of them on the tummy. Just because of this, all of them ran away crying home to their mommas. Oh…they are such nazzards, don’t ya think?
Anyway, to go on, the woman thanked him for saving her life. So, he did not hesitate anymore even a bit to introduce himself to her. Although he noticed this right away in her, he was not turned off although she is an onychotillomaniac and an onygophagist. The timing was just right, they were both hungry at the time, so Ben did not hesitate to invite her to dinner at a restaurant where the piano is played to set the ambiance.
In this restaurant, his favorite was their specialty: sesamoid rice mixed with all sorts of meats and spices, seasoned further with soy sauce. While they were doing some small talk, they franched on the food, saying too that the food is delicious.
Although this was embarrassing on Ben’s part, what he didn’t know is that after he left home at 18, his father established the same restaurant where he is eating in at this very moment. When Ben was a young boy, his dad was forcing him to play the piano, yet he is such a misodoctakleidist, and often told his dad that playing the piano just isn’t his thing. At that moment, Ben’s dad was walking around the restaurant to see if the customers are happy about their service and food. He stopped at Ben’s place and, forgetting to remove the microphone on his mouth which is supposed to be used for public announcements, he said, “Son! Is that you? Come! Play the piano and give my pianist some rest!” Everyone was looking. “Over the years, now, son, you must be really good at playing the piano…” He looked at the woman. “Now, looks like you’ve got a lady friend. Impress her and show her what you’ve got!”
He pointed to the piano near the mullion and asked Ben to step towards the piano. Since he’s got nothing, everyone laughed at him, but for him as of now, this was fun to remember.
Now that he’s a bit calmer, he was walking in the park and he saw a poor kid who was wearing tattered clothes and was hungry. Moved with pity, he fampled him by giving him something to eat and tried cheering him up, telling him that there is still hope to come. Ben realized that he is now ready to go home and talk to his son in an appropriate, non-physical manner.
Whew! That was hard to do!
That’s odd, the word girn is frequently used in the city I live in to describe the jaw/ teeth display which occurs when someone is deranged on pills (ecstasy). A girning person is generally never sad or angry here though, just wasted.
floccopaucinihilipilification =
the action of estimating something to be completely worthless. Also the longest word containing no E.
Just open a dictionary and you’ll see tons of words like these. A good-sized dictionary has over 270,000 entries. How many of these do you know?
These actually aren’t words. Not sure if anyone really checked…
Dear mooster,
what you have just said might be the funniest thing ive heard in a while.
thank you sir.
I yerd the crap out of people, and im pleased to finally know a more arcane- and hilarious- way of explaining myself.
Another fantabulous word: fuddy-duddy. Loove it.
where did you get all these?? i love it but looking them up ive only found a few and id love to have the right dictionary to prove im right for the next time i play scrabble. hahah
this is complete CRAP!
half the definitions are WRONG and half of the words arent even spelled correctly.
you idiot.
i had mullion as a vocab word in one of my english classes.
What a great list of words I will NEVER need.
i have been miss using defenestrate all this time.
i always mean de-window i.e. remove windows
fenestrate an elevation – add windows to it
defestrate an elevation remove the windows
wonderful
i looked some of these words and they dont exist for example dindrofilous
ive never heard of any of those words
those words are important so quit being MEAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok wth is embroidered
“Autodefenestrate” is a nice word too–”to throw oneself out of a window.”
If you squint and use your imagination a little, you can see the relationships among “fenester” (Latin), “fenetre” (French), “pfinster” (German), and maybe even “ventana” (Spanish).
If you can’t find any of the above in your dictionary, it’s probably because you bought your dictionary at the dollar store.
FWIW, “Autodefenestrate” means ‘being thrown out of a car window’
And in German it’s ‘Fenster’ btw.
A fen is a type of wetland fed by surface and/or groundwater. Fens are characterised by their water chemistry, which is neutral or alkaline.
Esters are chemical compounds derived by reacting an oxoacid (one containing an oxo group, X=O) with a hydroxyl compound such as an alcohol or phenol.[1] Esters are usually derived from an inorganic acid or organic acid in which at least one -OH (hydroxyl) group is replaced by an -O-alkyl (alkoxy) group, and most commonly from carboxylic acids and alcohols.
Thus fen-esters have nothing to do with Polyesters which are derived from dead parrots (see Monty Python, q.v)
Wasn’t “Hircine” the Big Bad from Morrowind’s Bloodmoon expansion?
