Pronunciation: sōlōmēō

Sentence: Once the words **Let me tell you** slipped past Sally*s lips, Edward knew it was going to be a solomeo evening. It didn*t matter if he had seen the Queen of England or if he had been hit by a bus. His job for the duration of the night was to nod reassuringly and interject phrases like **I know what you mean** or **That*s terrible**. Three hours later his mind was numb and his neck sore from nodding, all this because some clerk **looked at her funny**. His story about seeing a **queen** from England getting hit by a bus would just have to wait.

Etymology: solo (a thing done by one person unaccompanied) + (used by a speaker to refer to himself or herself as the object of a verb or preposition) a play on *O Solo Mia - a globally known Neapolitan song written in 1898

Pronunciation: BLEET-sink

Sentence: Generica was a delightful lassie who was driven to expound at length in clipped sentences on the excruciating details of her alpine life. Her wooly logic did not penetrate, but only grazed the skulls of those who inexplicably flocked to bask in her aura. Shorn of all restraint, her radiant soul and genuine sincerity was so endearing that you cud only hope to drive in a word wedge when she stopped ruminating to catch her breath. Most people just became BLEATSINKS for Generica's rambling monologues, sheepishly absorbing the airy earnestness of whatever it was she was talking about. I became a BLEATSINK myself, held fast by her steady gaze while the evening passed with the speed of a glacier. I might have stomped out had I been younger, but it's difficult to resist such charms- especially when you're pasture prime.

Etymology: BLEAT+SINK=BLEATSINK-A takeoff on heatsink (a device that absorbs or dissipates unwanted heat ) BLEAT:to make the natural cry of a sheep or goat, to utter a similar sound,to talk complainingly or with a whine,to utter in a bleating manner, blather; Middle English bleten, from Old English blǣtan;akin to Latin flēre to weep........SINK:penetrate,absorb, to become opressively known or felt; Middle English, from Old English sincan; akin to Old High German sinkan to sink.

Pronunciation: why n sy ded

Sentence: Every day Jill told her troubles to her cat, Sigmeownd Freud. She talked and moaned and complained and he just listened. It was apparent to anyone else that it was a whinesided relationship. Luckily she was unaware of her cat's deafness, otherwise he would have become cat-atonic listening to her.

Etymology: Whine (moan, complain) & One-sided (where only one person does the talking and the other the listening)
