Inspelligence

Created by: splendiction

Pronunciation: in SPELL i gence

Sentence: Brian’s last question from the audience stupefied him. “Well, the truthh izz....” He lost his train of thought mid-sentence, hesitated, then launched into a full inspelligence of senseless blubbering. “Andi oeej f iaoe uck sjdi...” This got worse! Was he speaking meaningless drivellence or an obscure language? Moments later, he snapped to alertness to ask: who he was, where he was and why him? It was a stroke of ingenious speculation.

Etymology: From intelligent and spell: to fall into a trance-like state while exercising one's intelligence.
