Xenocturnalia
Created by: XMbIPb
Pronunciation: /ze-noc-tur-na-li-a/
Sentence: Sleeping on the same bed with Clarisse Starling is one thing, but this was above and beyond the XENOCTURNALIA that Daizy the Sheep signed up for when it joined agent Starling to be a true and faithful sidekick. As Hannibal Lecter smiled and whispered his customary: “Good evening Clarisse,” the poor lamb went silent and quietly left the bedroom.
Etymology: XENO - prefix that usually refers to an across-species process or act (e.g. XENOtransplantation; XENOgraft); NOCTURNAL - night-related, usually sleep related; -ALIA - a suffix reserved for a ritual of a sexually suggestive nature (e.g. SaturnALIA)

Goatobed
Created by: petaj
Pronunciation: go - to - bed
Sentence: No sooner had the infomercial finished, than Jerry had dialled the number to order his goatobed, for just $49.95.

No longer would he be dogtired after his catnaps.
Etymology: "go to bed" + goat
