Vocabularies

[HellOnEarth]

For those who hate the English language, and love to jeer at it constantly--get the f**k out.

Now, those of you who love to read, and want to expand your knowledge of the use of vocabularies--you're in a for a good time

Here are the rules:

I will post a word, I know with a positive inkling, noone has ever heard--an eccentric word--a word that has been shunned from the reading community because of the lack of usage and popularity--and you will try to guess it--without the use of dictionary. Whoever is first to get it right, and come up with the correct definition, will be the one who posts the next word, and creates their own sentence. For example:

What is the definition of ...

Ennui:

You can imagine Dew K. Mosi's ennui after doing the same boring job for twenty years.

What is the meaning of Ennui?--without opening up your dictionary.

 

[JLBats]

Dude, how the **** can you NOT know the meaning of ennui, particularly after that terrible example?

And how will you know whether or not we actually checked the dictionary?

You want an obscure word? Here:

Anisculous.

Look it up.

 

[Ben Urich]

Dude, how the **** can you NOT know the meaning of ennui, particularly after that terrible example?

Seriously.

 

[HellOnEarth]

It is people like you who encourages the illiteracy rate in America. Someone please ban this fellow for not following the rules.

Create your own sentence--did you not read? Create your own sentence for anisculous, and we will guess.

 

[JLBats]

Anisculous

The fellow was quietly anisculous, gently sipping his morning coffee.

 

[Ben Urich]

It is people like you who encourages the illiteracy rate in America. Someone please ban this fellow for not following the rules.

And I thought I was uptight.

Nice conjugation there, too.

 

[HellOnEarth]

Can anyone guess the meaning of the word anisculous, by reading the atrocious sentence created by JLBATs? Write a better sentence, please, without the barrage of adverbs. Man, you would be a horrible writer if you were to write JLBats.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

There was a joke on Family Guy where a pretentious dude named his daughter ennui or something like that.
My friend and I laughed and her husband said, "what?"



btw, ennui is super common, if you're.....hangin' with the right sorts of people.

I'd think "phrontistery" would be more...rarely used.

 

[JLBats]

The fellow was anisculous.

Your use of language is terribly inefficient, by the way

You're taking the mountain path instead of the shortcut through the tiny shrubs

 

[HellOnEarth]

Get the hell out of here JL BAts.

Ok Wilhelm--can you create a good sentence with the word "phrontistery" so the people who guess have a good chance of getting it right? If you can, you are a good sentence structurere, maybe even a writer.

 

[JLBats]

If you can, you are a good sentence structurere, maybe even a writer.

Stop hurting America's children

 

[DOG LIPS]

My IQs aint high enough for this here thread.

 

[HellOnEarth]

You're f**ked up JLBats.

 

[JLBats]

My IQs aint high enough for this here thread.

DOG LIPS is too anisculous for this thread

 

[HellOnEarth]

My IQs aint high enough for this here thread.

You can try...

That's what the sentences are there for.

 

[JLBats]

You're f**ked up JLBats.

That's some terrible punctuation.

It looks like you're incoherently babbling about anal sex

 

[The Last Meatbag]

He dun use teh rite structchurrrz

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

Get the hell out of here JL BAts.

Ok Wilhelm--can you create a good sentence with the word "phrontistery" so the people who guess have a good chance of getting it right? If you can, you are a good sentence structurere, maybe even a writer.

Mmmm....how about?

"Any long-time member of the Hype knows that it's anything but a phrontistery."

 

[HellOnEarth]

Alright; I give up. What the f**k is anisculous? And since you were able to stump us, you may go again.

A better word this time.

With a better sentence.

 

[HellOnEarth]

Mmmm....how about?

"Any long-time member of the Hype knows that it's anything but a phrontistery."

Easy job?

Is that close, or somewhere in the right area?

 

[JLBats]

Alright; I give up. What the f**k is anisculous?

Go look it up.

Pronounced ah-nis-cue-less

 

[HellOnEarth]

You are not following the rules, dude. Just get out.

We're suppose to help encourage the use of vocabularies, not impede it.

 

[JLBats]

Looking it up yourself might even *gasp* cause you to stumble onto other useful and obscure words.

Go with it.

 

[HellOnEarth]

You are now officially on ignored.

Moving right along. Waiting for Wilhelm's response.
