Sentence: He was attracted, and she knew it. He telegraphed his arousal with every breath. But she played it cool; he might as well not have existed, as far as she was concerned. Of course, that made her all the more desirable. She stood there, in all her gleaming glory, and idled, her vortec V-6 rumbling, her flanks gleaming, her two-speed transfer case and four-wheel-drive tranny lying idle. "A hundred thirty k's quite a few miles," he muttered, trying to disguise the motoroticism reeking from his pores, then offered twelve hundred fifty for the '92 S10 Blazer.

Etymology: moto, middle Norse, "diminuative snapshot structure;" rot, bef. 900; (v.) ME rot(t)en, OE rotian, c. Fris rotsje, D rotten; (n.) ME, perh. < ON rot (perh. partly deriv. of the v.), "aroma of that which eminates from Denmark;" I, the nominative singular pronoun; cism, derivative of 'sizzle,' from early N. V. Peale, that which is sold in lieu of, and is percieved as preferrable to, the steak.

Pronunciation: in-ANN-ah-morr-us

Sentence: The vibration of the unbalanced washer shook the ceiling pot rack, the pans on it sounding a cacophony of distant gongs. Roger sighed, and picked up the evening paper, turning on the dim orange sodium light of the old table lamp next to him. Shortly after the shaking stopped, he heard feet hit the floor. Marjorie emerged from the stairs looking flushed, carrying an empty hamper. "You know," Roger started slowly, not looking up from the paper, "we could get a new machine since that one is so far out of balance?" Her face fell. "Oh, we don't need to spend that kind of money right now. Besides, this one does a fabulous job with my delicates." She paled when she realized her innuendo, and the paper folded down to reveal a stone-faced Roger, locking her in a stare. His steeled eyes revealed his knowledge of her inanimorus affair with the Maytag 7800 front loader. The weight of 34 years of marriage dimmed the light in the already dark wood-paneled room. Scattered cords of light dodged around the edges of the curtains, revealing how dusty the room was. She tracked a small piece of lint suspended in a ray between them as it drifted on thermals and drafts, in and out of the beam of light, to avoid his gaze. Eyes refocused as Roger slowly lifted his paper back to reading level. Marjorie saw the harsh outline of his eyes soften and the glint of a tear just before they were once again replaced with headlines proclaiming the latest tournament Cinderella. She filled and put the kettle on the stove, and left the room.

Etymology: inanimate + amorous

Sentence: "I only have mechaneyes for you," Carson crooned softly, as he stroked the side of his '78 Buick Century. "Those sleek new snazzy cars have nothing on you. They have but a shadow of your beauty and grace." His car was like an old friend to him. When people asked if he was getting a new car anytime soon, he would snap, "Would you trade in a friend of 32 years for someone you had just met?" Behind his back, people would say that if they had a friend of 32 years that smelled as bad as Carson's car did, they probably WOULD get rid of that friend.

Etymology: mechanize + eyes
