Ahhhshoot<\/strong>: \/ah-shoot<\/em>\/ Melody was deep in conversation with Cliff when she saw his expression change. Nose crinkling up. Brows furrowed. Upper lip in a sneer. When Cliff began the rapid intake of breath, Melody braced herself for a killer sneeze, all the while wondering why he didn’t have the decency to bury his shnoz in his elbow. After the most protracted build-up she could remember, Cliff threw his head back and….and…and…nothing. With a big “ahhshoot” Cliff returned to a conversation that Melody had long since checked out of. Etymology:<\/em> Achoo modified to include “shoot” as in expressing frustration.

Gesundhalt<\/strong>: \/geh-zund-halt<\/em>\/ Sue abruptly stopped her performance and stood perfectly still, staring straight ahead with a contorted look on her face. Her breathing became labored and everyone in the audience thought she may be having a seizure. After several anxious seconds she regained her composure and said, “Excuse me, I must have had a sneeze freeze.” Someone in the crowd yelled, “Gesundhalt!” and the whole place erupted with laughter. Etymology:<\/em> gesundheit: an expression to wish someone good health who has just sneezed arising from an ancient belief that your heart stopped while you sneezed and at that moment the devil could come and take over your soul + halt: stop or interrupt progress Created by:<\/em> mrskellyscl.<\/p>\n

Ah, ah, ah nothing… Etymology:<\/em> faux (artificial or imitation; false) + achoo (sound of a sneeze) Created by:<\/em> artr.<\/p>\n

Achooitusinterruptus<\/strong>: \/atch oooo ih tusss int urrr up tusss<\/em>\/ “Is anything as completely incomplete as a bad dose of achooitusinterruptus” thought Mick, as he lounged back stage before the gig, pen in hand, trying to compose a new song for the band. “I just can’t get any satisfaction.” Etymology:<\/em> coitus interruptus, achoo Created by:<\/em> galwaywegian.<\/p>\n
