Weird words

whispers • 1 November 2012 at 9:27 PM

What are some of the weirdest words that you've heard and probably will never you on a daily basis? I get lots of 'em from my word study from school

Ex:
sluicy - water falling in large amounts
circumambulate - to walk around


So, what are some weird words YOU'VE heard of? B)

Did you know there are words without vowels? 😸

HMMM...Let me think of some... :/

Gah! SHHHH! Stop being so loud! I'm trying to think! >.<

TSK TSK. Can't you be quiet?

You think you know some? PFFT. Yeah right.




Haha 😃

Floccinaucinihilipilification.
IT'S A REAL WORD. O-O
It estimates how something is valueless or something. xD

Rhythm. One of the few words without a vowel.

@whispers
Um.... You DO realize that y is sometimes a vowel, right? 😋

whispers • 2 November 2012 at 9:34 PM

@cqpkytty
I know, I'm not dumb. But my teachers always say "it's one of the few words without a vowel". I take what they say and repeat, I really trust them x3

daikirai • 2 November 2012 at 9:40 PM

@whispers
Y is considered a vowel sometimes. (:

cqpkytty • 2 November 2012 at 9:59 PM

@whispers
😋
Actually, did you know that both Y and W are neither vowels or consonants, they're somewhere in between 😋 It's something called a 'glide'. Like, even when you're using y as a consonant - take 'you're' for example 😋 - if you actually say the word slowly:

you're
yoooorrrrr
eeeeoooooorrrrrrr

😋

And take 'want'. Said slowly, it sounds like oooooaaaaannnnt.


So y and w are somewhere in between 😋

whispers • 2 November 2012 at 10:01 PM

@cqpkytty
Huh, I didn't know that. Cool.

cqpkytty • 2 November 2012 at 10:02 PM

@whispers
So...I guess 'rhythm' doesn't actually have a vowel. It has a glide 😋

@whispers

Antidisestablishmentarianism. XD

Funny story behind this. I was helping teach English at my Thai school and the teacher was having the students write as many words that start with A as they could think of. When they started writing words like "apple" or "all", he told them to use BIG words like antidisestablishmentarianism. LOL

clayosaurusrex • 27 December 2012 at 12:11 AM

@whispers

Just say that rythym is one of the only words without a LEGITIMATE vowel.

Makes life a whole lot easier.

Also, I have a word. It is a phobia xD

Here it is: Triskaidekaphobia.

It is the fear of the number 13.

glados • 27 December 2012 at 12:12 AM

Discombobulate.

fuzzykins412 • 27 December 2012 at 12:16 AM

@pjbuzzy

o-o There's this one girl in a few of my classes who just loves using that word.
