Morish

[Guest]

Isn't that just the funniest non-word?

I don't even know how it should be "correctly" spelt.

My Mum always used to say it, and I've found that I've annoyingly picked it up.

"Hmmm, these Rolos are nice, the trouble is they are very morish."

Anybody else know and/or use any silly, quirky words, which have a strange meaning?

Hi katie,
That is a very goodly thought! I would like to think morish is way out of my vocabulary of properly used terms.

I will have to think harder, but I know I use several non words frequently. Gettering back to this lata!

You want funny words, just look at the variety of Lit. handles. When Colly had her recent problem of someone stealing her story, I looked up the L's listed under members, there is 140 pages of them!

I've always spelt it more-ish, but then, I can't spell.

Thanksyous, Phildo.

I used to be forever correcting my kids, for not talking proper. Once in a while they'd get the past tense of something wrong, like, "I just writted a word, Mummy." Grrrr, bless 'em! I used to think: they will talk proper, if it kills me ( ). And, they do now, on the whole.

I find it amazing, given the number of words in the average person's vocabulary, that we do notice those galringly obvious mistakes in speech. And, it do grate me every single time.

You could be right with that spelling. To be honest, I don't think I've ever thought about the spelling before; I've only ever heard it spoken (or said it myself, ocassionally ), never written it.

As for the Lit handles, yep! There's thousands of 'em, mostly wierd and wonderful.

my favorite "non-word" is demaflitchy .

It's along the lines of "thingamabob" or "doohickey", but a little less used. A friend of mine uses it constantly, and it always makes me smile.

Morish is a very good word. Now what I know of it, I can think of a zillion places where I'd had used it.

Thingumie and spliff (spliffy/spliffish/spliffed) are words that I does seem to want to weave into my english vocabulary, although I have no idea what they actually mean, if anything.

I've never heard that one before. Might have to use it now, though!

Thanks, Cloudy.

I use thingumie now and again, when I can't quite get doobry-wotsit out.

As for "spliff", that's a joint. Never had one (honestly! It is one vice I have never touched), but known a few people who do talk about, "Having a spliff."

[lewdandlicentious]

No, no, no, no, no, you don't want her b.............

Hold on,

Which ones????

 

[Guest]

HA!

Lou

P.S. Don't say another word!!!!

 

[lewdandlicentious]

I think "More-ish" would be as correct as you're gonna get it.

Thingamyjig always comes to my mind, along with doobryfirkin.

Oojymaflips is another one.

My most common one though, has to be:

Wherethefuckshatgone???

You got me thinking - words I actually use and annoyingly picked up? Terms certainly:

"For sure . . . "

"Excellent . . ."

Someone once said I used the word DRUNKER is a sentance, but I doubt it I seriously doubt it, even when drunk.

Hm

Nope - just strangely sensical advice from my Mom:

"Don't put out for anything but lobster."

"No one gets off before you do."

"If he has a Jag and a private plane, just put a paper bag over his head."

My mom was a smart lady.

Reminds me of my mother's favorite saying when I was growing up:

"It's just as easy to marry a rich man as it is a poor man.'

Too bad I didn't listen.

My grandma used to say.....You'll shit when you eat enough. Don't know what it has to do with all of this, but it's true.
