Pronunciation: geh-zund-halt

Sentence: Sue abruptly stopped her performance and stood perfectly still, staring straight ahead with a contorted look on her face. Her breathing became labored and everyone in the audience thought she may be having a seizure. After several anxious seconds she regained her composure and said, "Excuse me, I must have had a sneeze freeze." Someone in the crowd yelled, "Gesundhalt!" and the whole place erupted with laughter.

Etymology: gesundheit: an expression to wish someone good health who has just sneezed arising from an ancient belief that your heart stopped while you sneezed and at that moment the devil could come and take over your soul + halt: stop or interrupt progress

Pronunciation: ah-shoot

Sentence: Melody was deep in conversation with Cliff when she saw his expression change. Nose crinkling up. Brows furrowed. Upper lip in a sneer. When Cliff began the rapid intake of breath, Melody braced herself for a killer sneeze, all the while wondering why he didn't have the decency to bury his shnoz in his elbow. After the most protracted build-up she could remember, Cliff threw his head back and....and...and...nothing. With a big "ahhshoot" Cliff returned to a conversation that Melody had long since checked out of.

Etymology: Achoo modified to include "shoot" as in expressing frustration.

Pronunciation: Noss trill ree call

Sentence: This was what they had trained for. The germs in her nose had been mustered into the naval cavity ready for ejection into the outer world, to spread their special kind of magic to all around her. The program sequence had been set: make the nose itchy; make subject go aaahh, aaahh several times and move her finger to her face. The itchiness persisted, yes, the order had come from above...fire at will. But wait, counter-orders had arrived...abort mission, return to base and await further instructions. Yes, it was nostrilrecall. But not to worry. As disappointing as this had been, it gave them more time to multiply and increase the invasionary force and when that happened, sometime soon...it would be a doozie!

Etymology: Nostril (either one of the two external openings to the nasal cavity in the nose) & Recall (cause to be returned;make unavailable; bar from sale or distribution;cancel)
