Pronunciation: G oh d lie n

Sentence: Trixie was good at the goadline, to prod her husband to praise her. Example one: Trixie says "Does this dress make me look fat?" Her husband thinks, but does not say 'yes.' To avoid an unpleasant situation and an argument, he says "Of course not! It shows you have curves in all the right places. You have a great figure." Example 2: Do you like my new ash blond hair color?" The husband, who has turned as ugly a shade of gray, as the new color on her hair, is again provoked to lie to keep life pleasant, and says "Silver is such a pretty color." Her husband often hummed 'Then peace will guide the planets And love will steer the stars."

Etymology: GOAD,LINE, play on GOAL LINE. Goad - prod and provoke into an action. Line - to exaggerate abilities or attributes in order to impress somebody. Goal line - the place where you win, make the score, get what you wanted.

Pronunciation: joi-DI-rahyd.

Sentence: The strange sounds that echoed in my head, obviously were even funnier on my lips, for my French speaking classmates laughed till they cried. And every day my pronunciation sounded worse, and there was nothing I could do to improve it. Then one day I said to myself, Bob you’re on a winner here; milk it, be the butt of their jokes, slip in a few Malay words and they will love you even more. It was fantastic I was more popular than ever before; the hurt had gone; the “joie de jeers” were now sweet music to my ears; my emotional tank was full again, and it was seat-belts on for the joyderide of my life.

Etymology: Blend of joy, joyride, & deride. Perhaps in line with the french flavour of my sentence, the verbotomy should be, "joie de ride".
