Confuzzled is the most cliched "made up word" ever. Its getting pretty old.

funner

No... really, don't you think that's a useful word?

ain't

It should be added to the dictionary... honest.

Snargle

Something like eating and gurgling at the same time. Sounds rather vicious, actually...

Sweetness-like when someone says "Sweet!" I say "Sweetness!"...yeah random

I love the word confuzzled. ^_^

And fuuner and funnest are words! ^_~

Awesomely awesome-my unique phrase for something that was really cool.

Coolie-yeah...*grins sheepishly*

Bloggity blog blog-a word that actually means "blog" but you say it when you're really hyper.

Stretchified-stretched out.

More to come! This is awesomely awesome! lol

In my opinion, you should be able to add "ish" to the end of any word. Examples: I'll meet you around one-ish. Her hair was blonde-ish red. (It's different than reddish blonde, trust me).

Also, since when did consumption have a P? HOW COME NOBODY TELLS ME THESE THINGS? :(

heh... I use 'ish' as a word itself. Instead of saying, 'Oh, I'm okay,' I just say, "Eh... ish. You know." The confused looks are only a bonus. ^_^

Oh, and squicky. Sort of a combination of squeamish and icky (like Harry/Snape slash pairings in fanfiction... really, really, really squicky. Textbook definition squicky, in fact).

Tempestual--from the word tempest.

I was actually pretty sure it's a word, but then the other day I checked it out and it wasn't.

But I still think it should be added to the dictionary.

Tempestous is a word...in Shakespeare at least.

Whissow -- adjective describing breath or sound; willowy whisper.

Vorón -- noun; moronic or foolish scavenger - Russian derived.

Juding by most words. You take a normal verb or noun and just stick on endings.

-ed
-er
-est
-ization

You know whats a weird word? Sodomy.
Am I allowed to say that?
You shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, instead, you should read every single book to see what every book is about before you even come close to judging its viability.

Sodomy. Ha - and that's a word that comes from a place. I suppose then one could use the word "Toledone/y" as something that had to do with bullfighters or with good steel; or "Washingtony" for a certain sort of political corruption? ^_~

Oh darn. Is this thread dead? We have quite a lot of made-up words in my place. Here are a few of them:

proness = professional + -ness

bits = when this is pronounced as beets, it signifies the word "b*tch" in my school

chuva / choo-choo / eklat / ek-ek = this is from the Filipino language and can be loosely translated as et cetera. :) "Why don't you finish all your English-chuva?"
