Verboticisms

Created by: ErWenn

Pronunciation: /ˈnʊdʒˌwɪŋk/ The first vowel is the short "oo" sound (ʊ) as in "book" or "put", not the long "oo" sound (u) in "boot" or "boob" and not the short "u" sound (ʌ) in "butt" or "buck".

Sentence: He was such a nudgwink that he couldn't pass any coupling of two even vaguely round objects without making boobie jokes. Melons, hills, buildings, even the Os in the Google logo were fair game to him. When he finally told us that he was gay, nobody was surprised.

Etymology: nudg(e) + wink, from the "Candid Photography" sketch in the episode "How to Recognize Different Types of Trees From Quite a Long Way Away" of the television show "Monty Python's Flying Circus". Reminiscent of Yiddish "nudnik" - a persistently dull pest.

Oh, wicked. Wicked. You're wicked. Eh? Know what I mean. Know what I mean? Nudge nudge. Know what I mean? Nudge nudge. Nudge nudge. Say no more! Say no more squire! (Good word!) - Banky, 2008-02-12: 12:17:00

Pronunciation: speek- a - boo

Sentence: The Smith Family was kind enough to include their daughter's long misunderstood boyfriend on a trip to a family wedding in Beaver, PA.

Now that's a place I'd like to visit on a Saturday night, right Mr. Smith!?"

Etymology: Speak + Taboo

Awe! Shucks! Do we just have to grin and bare him? Did the implied undertaker in the cartoon inspire undercoverer? Very unique! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-12: 11:52:00

SEXILEXIA: blend of sexy & Lex (lexia): word of a language, speech, & IA: state or (medical) condiition. HO (as in skanky ho) - OZZIEBOB, 2008-02-12: 05:26:00

does this follow the dyslexia angle with Bob substituting sex for six e.g. sex shooter, sex degrees of separation or the sex fingered man from the Princess Bride - Jabberwocky, 2008-02-12: 11:16:00

Clever use of rudimentary! Sexlexia is fun to say. I tried to say it three times real fas. It was a tongue twister that came out sexlessia! Ouch! Does this mean I am sexlexic in the worst possible way? - silveryaspen, 2008-02-12: 11:31:00

Oh! For me to say this 3 times fast is tongue torture ... when you miss that last 's' !!!!! Or say it displaced after the t instead of in front of that last t !!! Original and so funny to try to say! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-12: 11:38:00

I love it... I know way too many people that overuse that phrase. My only comments: It's really long. It's hard to wrap my tongue around. It goes on and on. I feel like I'm drooling when it comes out of my mouth. ... - Magnetic, 2008-02-12: 13:52:00

Good points. I removed the h from "shist". I think that will make it easier to pronounce! - playdohheart, 2008-02-12: 13:59:00

Very interesting & creative! - OZZIEBOB, 2008-02-12: 16:10:00
