Do you ever make up words? I sometimes do on the spot, :D either because I can't think of the actual word or because it's easier to make up my own!
Like just now, I needed to find an adverb for retaliatory. So, I said retaliatorily! Firefox says that's wrong, but w/e. :greenie:
Sometimes I think my girlfriend is making up words but it turns out she just has a larger vocabulary than me.
I like to make up phrases and stuff to describe people and things, a la Urban Dictionary.
I don't make up words, but once I hear an interesting word, I'll latch onto it and keep repeating it all over the place. Like shawarma! Mothersmurfing shawarma!
Mmmm.Quote:

I like to combine words to make new superwords. Like doucheass.
I use prolly alot, instead of probably. I didn't make it up, though. Someone I used to talk to alot used in frequently and I suddenly found myself doing it, as well.
Allie uses words a lot in conversation that I don't know the definition of, but sometimes I'm too embarassed to ask so I just go with it.
I don't make up words, I just stutter and join two words of similar meaning together so I sound even more stupid. :)
I make up words, similar to Yaridovich :p But I acknowledge that it's not a word and look up the real one :D
That's not as short as that word can get! :Eek: People around here say pr'y. :(Quote:

I take existing words to make my own compound words o:
My favorite word that I made up is 'fetulent'. It's a compound of fetid and feculent. :cool:
Or succulent fetus!
