phra·s·a·lo·gis·tics


The way in which words and phrases are combined to have a new meaning.

A legion of blood…

Another fresh steaming pile of new words for you folks:

cake·fast, com·i·con, di·no·mite, ro·bo·gasm, twelp·force

I am on the lookout for a video of the Twelpforce ad I see running, so if anyone spots it, send it in. Smile I will also add pictures to more entries soon.

  • Your newest pile of words:

    hor·gy, scrip·tac·u·lous, win·ter·een·mas

    I am trying a new stats tracking plugin, hopefully with less upkeep needed on my end. I would like to make it easier to create the pronunciations for the words, and I will likely look into scripting it somehow, because it’s way too time consuming.

  • Are you not entertained?!

    I added a few new words, no submissions lately, so I have just been collecting words I find.


    sext·ing, stay·ca·tion, mon·ste·ra·ti

    I think mon·ste·ra·ti is my current favorite word. The car isn’t 12,000hp and doesn’t shoot flames, but it’s a testament to what one person can create with determination, an engineering degree, and some free time.

    Although outside the current norm, here is a link to this piece of engineering:

    1957 Monsterati

    Check it out. Smile

    My stats tracker shit the bed, so I am going to fix it now.

  • Post name goes here.

    Here’s another helping of words:

    car·bo·ta·ni·um, di·va·ti·ni, ter·ri·bad

    I wasn’t able to find anything much on carbotanium, however it was reference in Top Gear last night, so I expect something on it soon.

    Anyway, enjoy Grin

  • A nice bottle of portmanteau.

    First of all I added a few words: chil·lax, shit·na·do, sk·un·gle

    Secondly, I thought we’d discuss nelogism, and portmanteau. Now some of my more linguistically-endowed colleagues likely have noticed the site is filled with nothing but words created through portmanteau and it’s all *technically* legit to use English as a living language, however in my defense, phrasalogistics sounds 100% more badass.

    I’d also like to point out that there is nothing preventing me from creating new words through the use of sudo (punny lololol) laws that exist with nelogism and portmanteau. I am merely playing to the cynical and dark humor that comes from listening to people make up these new words for EVERYTHING rather than using words already in place.

    Does this make me a grammar Nazi?

    It probably does, but frankly I pay for the hosting, and I still have a few freedoms left, so I can do what the fuck I want with my free time.

    What gives me the right?

    I understand that phrases like “make it do” do NOT belong in the dictionary, and I get off on looking up words used in Neal Stephenson books.

    Update — I added more info to the about page, so when someone else instant messages me saying the site is a certain way I can show them that.

  • Ima grip and sip.

    Dug up a few more words off the internet for your enjoyment:

    clone·zilla, meat·a·tar·i·an, wire·shark

    I have been perusing ways to enhance the site further, and I think I may tweak the theme a bit visually. You probably won’t notice many changes, but I just want to make it a little more user friendly here and there.

    Smile

    I appear to have forgotten to include baconator. I shall correct that mistake shortly.

    Update — Okay, ba·con·a·tor is added. I also noticed an alternate spelling for meatatarian, but frankly Google says it should be spelled with an ‘A’ and not an ‘E’ and I am pretty sure they have scientists working there.

  • A call for word submissions.

    I’ve added can·ten·na to the database, however I should note that I am out of submissions, and my personal well is currently dry. I am sure there are obvious words I am missing, and it is up to you guys to submit some.

    I will keep on the lookout for more, but if you find something, feel free to send it in!

    Grin

    Since the submissions have slowed, I am going to begin hammering away at the core parts of the site again, and add more features for everyone.

  • I can type whatever I want here.

    Okay, more words added to the dictionary. I got a few yesterday, but held off due to time constraints on my end. Anyway, enjoy!

    beer·ca·tion, blame·storm, cock·oph·o·ny, les·bi·on·ics

    I’ll see about adding more pictures in the next few days or so. Smile

  • Somebody owes me ten bucks.

    Okay, let me start off by saying I added a few new words:

    break·ca·tion and Fri·tal·ian.

    I have also added YouTube videos for those two words. I am still hammering it out to perfection, but I will begin including YouTube videos for words when I have something relevant. Smile

    We’re web 2.0 now, or some shit.
