I think it means exhibition of tents of Hottentots. Because I pieced several parts of the phrase together......it is a valid word too.
"Hebesphalmology."
LOL @ you-know-who, don't cheat. :P

I know it from some corrections courses I took a while back.
I know the answer, but won't divulge same, in case you were looking for someone else's answer. ;)
How about: Quotidian?
Commonplace. I know this because I'm South Asian and it's used to describe malaria all the time. :)

Liar Liar pants on fire :lol: Quotidian (http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?Quotidian)
Then I would imagine in southeast Asia malaria is indeed a quotidian occurrence. ;)
How about apodictical?

I don't know why they don't get a 4-man tent and throw the other three away... be so much easier.......

Can you show apodictically that apodictical is a proper word?
Please give an apodictic reference.

Boy, that's a tough one.
Let's see....
Smashing one's thumb with a large mallet would apodictically force one to draw the conclusion the ensuing pain was unavoidable, and the sensation suffered therefrom apodictical; the apodictic truth of this brooks no dissent.
Klutzy, I admit, but the best I could do, as I just woke up. :)
Lynx, you are a tester!

And now the pronunciation ! :rolleyes:
Make an MP3, and share it :01:
There's a place with a name longer than that, it's either in the UK, US, Europe, the Americas, or the Eastern hemisphere. :ninja:

I could pronounce the town in Wales for about a full day after I saw a special on it.
Its all gone now... As for the place in Thailand.... Forget it.
There, then.
Another thread has gotten away from us, eh? :D
