infamous Posted September 24, 2006 Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 The subject for this thread is the invention of new words not common to currently acceptable English. Communication, IMHO, is the single most important factor in the evolution of the human mind. Without it, advancement in all forms of human study would have never progressed. New words are being constructed everyday for public consumption, and this evolution of our language is necessary for not only common understanding but also for technological developement. With this in mind, let's push the envelope and invent a few new words of our own. My first offering: Restudable.......The acceptable character of a subject to be restudied. When entering a new offering, please submit a definition with it. If this instruction is not followed, your post will be edited...............Infy InfiniteNow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
