Made Up Words

[Silkiefan]

my son couldn't say certain sounds when he was a toddler, so to this day kangaroos are : KINGER-LOOS
My mother and I like to rename things, so the bathroom is the "evacuation station" a comb or brush is a "follicle smoothing device"... we learned how to view and label the world differently by watching Coneheads (the movie) so of course, our favorite breakfast item is "fried chicken ovum" - and we pour "bovine mammary product" over our cereal. YUM!

verb-to horkle

usage- "Oh my god! Did you see that bluejay horkle that huge peanut so it could carry another in it's beak?"

Sometimes I use Smurf? instead of Huh? I also sometimes use fanfreakingtastic as "That's just great! (sarcasm)"

My favorite movie word is "sharted". If you have to ask, you should watch Shallow Hal. "kankles" came from that movie too.

I can't believe no one said "thingamjig" or "whatchamacallit".

This comes from my friend's three year old:
hicey. It means hot and spicy. My friend thinks it's a left over from being in Switzerland when he was learning many words. He learned "heiss" for hot. I think I spelled that right. He uses it to describe some foods that he doesn't like.

My two year old likes to say, "Yurk!" for look, but I think that may be a common one.

'very much beautimous' is a common one of mine

Gription

(n.) Having the quality of grippage; an amount of grip.

# Example: Tires have gription instead of traction when they are getting a little bald.
# b. (n.) The amount of traction or gripping force a material has against a surface or object with an adequate coefficient of friction.

My buddy used the word gription once and swore it was a true word. We laughed so hard we cried.

"poo-dah" is a big word in our house-- it means 'silly, semi-naughty, goofy...' in an endearing way

.

So we call each other 'Poo-dah heads' and, when my boys are being goofy I'll ask them if they're being 'Poo-dahs'

Other uses include 'poo-dah monkey' 'poo-dah baby'... you get the picture

It kind of just happened. Not sure where it came from.

We have other words like that, but that is one that has been consistent and is starting to get adopted by extended family
