Pronunciation: hi/per/sha

Sentence: While travelling on their honeymoon, newlyweds Guy and Gail O'Leo had unfortunate encounters with Newton's lesser-known "Scofflaws" of Motion: Scofflaw #1(Rule of Hypertia) - An object in motion tends to remain in motion, and an object at rest is usually at the wrong departure point (thus rapidly substituting the state of "hyper" for the state of "inertia"). Scofflaw #2 - The velocity (V) of any person in motion is directly proportional to the traveller's distance (D) from his or her departure point; but inversely proportional to the amount of luggage (L) he or she is toting, and the amount of time (T) he or she has before departing.

Etymology: hyper + inertia

Excellent word! - ErWenn, 2008-04-22: 09:49:00

You could probably sell tee-shirts at the airport with these 'laws' on them, although the people most apt to buy them would be running to their gates and ticket counters. Very amusing. - Tigger, 2008-04-22: 23:20:00

Pronunciation: slōmentəm

Sentence: Jerry loved to see the impatient motorist who just couldn't seem to break traffic-light slomentum. This jerk came rushing up behind Jerry, flashing his high beams, honking his horn, ducking into the next lane over and zooming past as if he was the only one who had somewhere to go. That's when he was stalled by the first of a series of red lights. The smirk on Jerry's face grew with each successive stop. Just to rub it in, as he came up behind "Mr. Impatient" at about the 4th light, he flashed his high beams.

Etymology: slow (moving or operating only at a low speed) + momentum (the quantity of motion of a moving body, measured as a product of its mass and velocity)

Sentence: Travelling with Howie was not fun. He would go to the airport hours before the minimum check-in times just to "get a good seat" on the plane (even though seat selection had been assigned at booking time). He drove his wife, Wanda, crazy, as the rushing and waiting drove her mad. Howie was definitely a travelurgent and his haste in getting to the airport, frequently meant he forgot his tickets, passport and or money on the hallway table.

Etymology: Travel Agent (someone who sells or arranges trips or tours for customers) & Urgent (compelling immediate action)

He wasn't going to let that happen again. He was going to anticiwait as long as it took to be first in line.

Pronunciation: ek-spi-dawd-l

Sentence: Nothing, but nothing, can cause more expedawling than the procedures at an airport. Get there early. Wait in line. Rush to the security checkpoint. Wait in line. Wait longer while the people who just arrived for the next outgoing flight are pushed to the front of the line. Get to your gate. Wait for boarding. Your flight is called. Wait while every person of every possible description other than you is called to board. Get called. Form another line. Get on the plane. Wait while the guy with the 200-pound carry-on wrestles it into the overhead compartment. Get in your seat. The plane taxis to the runway and you wait. It's a good thing that things will be so much easier and faster when you arrive at your destination.

Etymology: expedite (to speed up the progress) + dawdle (to move slowly; to waste time)
