And also, I learned the word somnambulation form Arty yesterday.

Cheers, artster

[Barbarossa]

I invented a word once:- somnafunambulism.

It means tightrope walking while asleep.

It's pretty specialised, and hasn't gained widespread acceptance yet...

Linguistic quarantine is not negotiable or debateable.

That's very negatable.

It's my quarantine and I decide!!

You know, the practice of slapping a negative prefix onto a word to indicate its antonym is particularly frowned upon in linguistic circles. I recently wanted to know the what the opposite to anthropomorphism was. I immediately thought of, and rejected, ananthropomorphism because of the sheer inelegance and settled for zoomorphism instead.

The point is that deboard is such a lazy and inelegant way of expressing this particular action that there is absolutely no chance whatsoever of it gaining widespread acceptance. I looked at it earlier in the thread and thought; 'ew' - without even being aware that it wasn't some kind of official merkin bastardisation of English.
That's right, it's too shit even for Americans, gut instincts ftw

Also, Dathy lost that argument when he capitalised haha. Proper noun, is it؟

I would have thought I'd enjoy watching you metaphorically butt fucking Darthy and Mary, but as it turns out I just feel embarrassed and disgusted at the spectacle

You know what, I'm going to work "deboard" into my next paper just to spite you. I don't care how much I have to tweak an analogy to warrant the inclusion of a train.

I am inebriated by the locquaciousness of my own vituperation.

It's hardly surprising, you've been against any and all forms of anal escapades since STM&SD made you take that butt-plug like a filthy gypsy.

I don't have the heart to tell him it's loquac......

It's probably best we don't mention it.
After an arduous day extracting aubergines, it's the last thing he needs.

If I wanted it to go mainstream, I'd demit my soul to a record exec and have it featured when the next album drops. Just because you're disappointed in your attempts to to discover the antonymous equivalent of your patois, doesn't mean you should swear it off altogether. Unless you're German, it's a bit deceptive for you to convince us of a scenario where you could elegantly elongate a word that has already matched a 16-letter count.

However, I realize I'm limiting my stereotyping by stopping at the Germans while conveniently deferring the abuses the Welsh. I'd normally include some examples, but am unable to do so without sounding them out in my head, and my brain feels a little too dehydrated to commit to that. What I'm trying to say is don't let your background keep you detained. If you just keep at it, you'll get there.

I count 5 uses.
