Pronunciation: gloss-o-mam-mail-i-a

Sentence: Emma, Dr. Doolittle's faithful assistant received the gift of glossomammalia one night at an ASPCA rally. She was an especially talented duck whisperer and soon was given her own show on Animal Planet where she would drive to the homes of people who had pets with issues and grievances against their owners. Eventually she went into animalaw, and succesfully argued in front of the Supreme Court to change the law to allow pets to sue their owners for cruelty.

Etymology: Glossolalia: "The gift of tongues" an estatic speech uttered in the worship services of several sects stressing emotion and religious ferver + mammalia: mammal, the highest class of vertebra.

Animammerotic mammocentrism of the highest order! (but not the 'highest class' since none is 'higher' than another) - dochanne, 2009-05-18: 03:14:00

Pronunciation: mal lard kee

Sentence: Joan owned a pet duck which she named Sir Francis Drake. She was able to communicate with him very well. He became a therapist for her, as she told him all her problems and dreams. He listened and gave her very clear advice. Some people thought it was all mallardkey, really... getting advice from a duck! One day, she asked Sir Drake how much she should pay him for his valuable service. "Don't worry", he said "I'll send you my bill!"

Etymology: Mallard (wild dabbling duck from which domestic ducks are descended) & Mallarkey (insincere or foolish talk; misinformation)

Pronunciation: Ver-beh-trait

Sentence: As a self-absorbed bipedal anthropoid vertebrate Jenny found herself often unable to communicate effectively with others of her kind, largely due to her grandiose verbosity, vective and vacillation. She was thus a verbetrate and spent most of her time quakkety-yakking (but ducks were not such good listeners), gibbon-gabbing, and slither-blathering.

Etymology: Verb: doing word, such as 'speaking'; Vertebrate: animals with backbones, such as mammals, birds, reptiles, fish, amphibians, but not politicians. This group is obviously so big that the few members who are actually human are neglible. I note this word is often misspelled as 'verbetrate' by an interposition of the "b" and the "t", hence found as such in google. Betray: turn to the 'other' side, ie. talk to the animals rather than humans.. Also Verberage and of course Verbotomy.

Pronunciation: doc/ter/doo/lit'/ler

Sentence: Dr. John, the local veterinarian, had an uncanny ability to communicate with all animals, except goldfish. Hopefully, what with having purchased "The Idiot's Guide to Goldfish", he'd soon be fluent. Dr. John didn't know quite as many animal languages as that guy in Puddleby-on-the-Marsh, or even as many farm dialects as that Dr. Herriot in Yorkshire, but he felt he had a pretty good grip overall. Perhaps he too would one day be known as a regular DrDoolittler.

Etymology: Dr. Doolittle: in children's stories, a doctor who shuns human patients in favor of animals + -er: suffix meaning "one who..."

Pronunciation: kəmyoōnəkat

Sentence: After seeing Cats 37 times Alley felt that she could communicat. She felt that she could speak to her feline friends in their native tongue. She was dissappointed when the guy at the piercing shop politely told her that he was fresh out of implantable whiskers. When she tried to communicat with her human friends they collectively decided that their eccentric chum had gone over the edge. Even though Tom was a bit turned on when Alley started licking herself and purring, he joined in on the planning for an intervention.

Etymology: commune (feel in close spiritual contact with) + communicate (share or exchange information) + cat (a small domesticated carnivorous mammal with soft fur, a short snout, and retractile claws)
