Title: Favourite MES made-up word
Völlig Totall - November 9, 2008 05:04 PM (GMT)
I am learning the english language thanks MES. This forum is the bestest school of english school and you're all the best "teach".
Cappuccino and a slice of quiche for everyone, my treat! :applaud:

I've always liked 'pleasurelicious'.
I think it means 'pleasureable, and also quite delicious'.
It has a nice ring to it.

Voxish. I often think I feel like this, still not sure what it means.

I have always been very partial to think it means feeling like Bono Vox, but i cannot prove it, alas. :(
A crazy feeling, anyway.

My fave is Moderninity -- which I think is Modernity + Inanity. -_-

Didn't he once finish some piece he wrote for a music mag with the line Stymerand...whatever that means? (or something)

Sounds beautiful to my ears.

I never liked that one. Trying too hard. A bit too pleased with itself.
As for "enduction", it's just a spelling mistake, isn't it?

I don't have a favourite made-up word. I prefer the way he puts existing words together.
I should have ignored this thread, shouldn't I?

Well, your opinion is perfectly acceptable to me. I kind of agree with that context thing. I find the opposite happens too, for instance when he goes "she was without malice" in Sing Harpy, I always cringe.
But the way he sings corporate -u- lent all stretched out works for me.

I think so. Nice to have you around Baggy, it's been a while B)
I like "agragarian" a lot, it's a nice portmanteau of "agrarian" and "agregate", I always imagine - ie, a bog-standard average piece of British countryside...possibly in Norfolk :P
"Corporate-ulent" just seems a little smug & sophomoric to me...it's not even that clever, really, both "Corporate" & "Corpulent" come from the same root.
Has anybody, aprt from MES, ever used the word "portaphone"?
