Communicat: /kÉ™myoÅnÉ™kat/ After seeing Cats 37 times Alley felt that she could communicat. She felt that she could speak to her feline friends in their native tongue. She was dissapointed when the guy at the piercing shop politely told her that he was fresh out of implantable whiskers. When she tried to communicat with her human friends they collectively decided that their eccentric chum had gone over the edge. Even though Tom was a bit turned on when Alley started licking herself and purring, he joined in on the planning for an intervention. Etymology: commune (feel in close spiritual contact with) + communicate (share or exchange information) + cat (a small domesticated carnivorous mammal with soft fur, a short snout, and retractile claws) Created by: artr.

smart word, twisted sentence…love it
Petofeelya: /PET-OPHELIA/ The old neighborhood
Just ain’t the same
Nobody knows just
What became of
Ophelia?
Where have you gone?
…..Ashes of laughter
The coast is clear
Why do the best things always disappear?
Like Ophelia…
Please darken my door.
…..lyrics by The Band Etymology: PET+OH!+FEELYA=PETOFEELYA…..PET: a domesticated animal kept for pleasure rather than utility
perhaps back-formation from Middle English pety small…..OH!: used to express acknowledgment or understanding of a statement [interjection]…..FEEL YA: late 20th centuy slang, possibly rooted in ebonics, derived from the phrase” I FEEL YA”-implying a deep, unspoken empathy bordering on mystical understanding….. FEEL to be aware of by instinct or inference. Middle English felen, from Old English fÄ“lan; akin to Old High German fuolen to feel, Latin palpare to caress…..OPHELIA: A pivotal character in Hamlet, Ophelia is the most one-dimensional. She has the potential to become a tragic heroine but she instead crumbles into insanity, becoming merely tragic and ducklike. Ophelia sings songs and waddles around the stage,handing out flowers while citing their symbolic meanings and consuming millet. Although interpretations of the meanings differ, her telepathic contact with deceased waterfowl is generally accepted as a manifestation of madness- at least in the stage version that recently made it’s North American tour of shabby playhouses and art-nouveaux beer gardens……

Verteprate: /virt ta prayt/ Helen could communicate with all animals. Her ability to verteprate came at an early age and served her well to interrogate the pets of crime victims, perepetrators and witnesses, as a special service to the police. It was amazing what we do and say in front of our pets because we think they won’t talk. But Helen could get pets to verify alibis, deny stories and defeat many a criminal in his illegal ways. Pets told no lies nor harboured any ulterior motives for their statements. Helen only wished her gift worked on her 13 year old son, but alas that is not the way life goes! Etymology: Vertebrate (animal having a having a bony or cartilaginous skeleton with a segmented spinal column and a large brain enclosed in a skull or cranium) & Prate ( idle or foolish and irrelevant talk; speak (about unimportant matters) rapidly and incessantly)
