Four letter words should be banned from the English language

[littleblackdress50]

OH YE with dirty minds... I din't mean the F word or any other word with a sexual connotation.

I meant words like "work" and "snow". There must be many other four letter words that should go on the banned list.

Detects a recurring theme!!!

Why all this discrimination against those words of lesser stature. Next thing you know everyone will want to ban those 16 letter words.

 

[littleblackdress50]

trying and failing to think of a truly bad 16 letter word worthy of banning.... fails....

 

[Zeb_Carter]

superciliousness come to mind as one.

Seems like a good word to ban... since I have never used it in a sentense before!

Except that "first person" doesn't fit into four letters.

No don't I'm looking for a good 28 letter word for a new story about words that fight and fuck all at the same time and I need a 28 letter word with a lot of x's and y's and z's.

My dad used to have one bumper sticker on his Mercedes, and only one. It said:

"Eschew Obfuscation."



(look it up, Zeb. I promise, they're real words)

Antidisestablishmentarianism

It lacks a lot of X's, y's and z's but I'll keep looking. It does deal with lack of fucking and fighting back...in a sense.....

Half the population of the country wouldn't know what to say if this is banned.

If you're looking for a 30 letter word about not fucking and then fighting about why someone is not fucking, try...

pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism

And now for the pièce de résistance, the finale grande, the longest word in the English language (according to Oxford), good for a story about...damned if I know, use...

pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

I tried counting the letters but got lost.....

Which means it's time to ban garrulousness.

Nope, an aeronautical engineer - he worked on the early space program with Werner Von Braun.

If I were a postal carrier, I might want this name banned. An envelope would need to be several feet wide just to have it fit across the front.

"Snow" can have a sexual connotation. Have you ever seen a "snow angel" that seemed oddly shaped?

Just shorten it to lanfair.

No, it needs the x's and z's at least. Y's are good...
