Pronunciation: /ˈtʃædəˌlɪst/

Sentence: While the chatalyst did its job by starting conversations, they usually didn't consist of much more than "Why are you wearing a plunger?" followed by "To start conversation!" It just goes to show both that there's an art to choosing a good conversation crutch and that one cannot compensate for a complete lack of personality.

Etymology: From chat + (cat)alyst

Pronunciation: ASS sess or ize

Sentence: Yup, Darryl certainly put the word "ass" in assessoreyes. In fact if he bent over fast, most of his would spill out for all to see (and he'd get a little behind in his housework). Good thing St.Pat's was only a month or so away, so he'd be able to put on his green pair! Butt, I digress...

Etymology: Ass (we all know one or two) & accessories & eyes (seeing those shorts hurts mine)

Pronunciation: man-ee-kin-ate

Sentence: Not all humans are born equal, but when it came to Bob, some thought born was a misnomer. And despite being garbed always in latest fashion and accessories, his gaucherie suggested that a more suitable word was needed to describe his strange and anti-social behaviour. Someone suggested "mannequinate"; others wanted more time to think. However friends were encouraged that an inner change was about to take place when they saw Bob reading the book, "Personality for Dummies."

Etymology: MANNEQUINATE: blend of mannequin - model of a person, used to display clothes; a dummy (lit & fig). & -ATE: as an ending of a verb, to cause, to become.

COMMENTS:

Excellent ending in your sentence! Artful verbot! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-14: 07:49:00

I never thought of the Dummies books that way - very funny and a little scary - Jabberwocky, 2008-02-14: 11:43:00
