Sentence: Trying to gently turn him down, Maria told Kermit that there was a language barrier between them. Kermit cared not at all. She told him that she did not know if she was ready for tadpoles. Again he gazed at her with bulging eyes. Finally, she told him bluntly that his ardor for her was unrequiteable. He looked despondent and afraid that he might go off and croak, she watched him hop up to a pretty girl on the road. The pretty girl bent down and kissed Kermit and poof! didn't he turn into a tall handsome Prince? He turned to Maria and said, "When I said "ribbit" it does not mean "I love you"...it means "Kiss me and become my Princess!" Maria toadally got it wrong!

Pronunciation: prik lee pare

Sentence: Peter said "Cabbages are red, they can be green, too. By the natural slaws of selection, Bunny, I love you." Sweet as the poem was , Bunny wanted to curse ... for like, not love, filled her ... I must tell him, but not in a dieverse. Now, how can I put a spin-nachurely, and preserve our green peace, Oh, help me a-spare-agus from a rude-a-bega, please. "Dear Peter, my friend, two-mate-toes, we can never be ... for in me, all that sprouts ... is a rosyred comradish for thee." Even though Bunny said it affectionately, I must report to you very sadly: They remained awkward over their differences to care, ... living everafter, not happily ... but as a pricklypair.

Etymology: PRICKLY, PAIR being a word play on 'prickly pear' cactus ... both can be thorny and uncomfortable.

Pronunciation: deck-lair-ay-shun

Sentence: The scene was set--cozy table in the back of a nice restaurant, a nice bottle of wine, me looking good in my favorite red shift from Ann Taylor Loft (Ok, it was the outlet, but it looked full-price). Just after our dinner plates were cleared, my date looked into my eyes with that moo-ey look that signifies trouble when it comes from the wrong person. I became intensely interested in the dessert menu. He placed his hand on mine and said, "Kate, I have to tell you. I love--" "Creme brulee?" I said a little too loud and too fast. "Me too! Should we split one or get two? Let's get two. I am not ready to share dessert with you yet." Then I focused all my attention on flagging down the waiter to avoid the declarashun that was headed my way. Dang. I should have worn the Old Navy jean skirt instead.

Etymology: Declaration: a statement that is emphatic and explicit changed to include Shun: avoid and stay away from deliberately; stay clear of
