Sentence: She was spiralyzing in the parking lot, a lot. A lot of spiralyzing was going on today in the parking lot. In the end she was totally spiralyzed.

Etymology: paralyzed + spiral = spiralyzing. why ? because in the end you are paralyzed while moving round in circles. maybe you would have been faster by taking the next best parking-place and walk the rest ? no spiralyzing, no fun.

Pronunciation: REH car NOY ter

Sentence: Stacy carefully recarnnoitered the terrain, searching for the one perfect spot that would land her closest to the mall entrance. It didn't do her any good in the end, though, because when she left, after closing, she went out the wrong side of the mall and the door locked behind her. She had to walk halfway around the mall in the dark, through ice and snow, with her big packages, to find her car. "Next time," she thought to herself, "I'm going to do more careful recarnnaissance before I park."

Etymology: car + reconnoiter
