Pronunciation: prox - lim - eter

Sentence: We dubbed the two families down the block the Spatfields and Annoys. They were friends for years until they moved next door to each other. Since then, all they do is fight and argue and have became a source of both amusement and annoyance to everyone around them. Last weekend, in an attempt to "get away from each other" they erected a proxlimiter between the houses. It is an eight foot concrete fence with no "see throughs" and no gates. It goes clear from the alley to the street.

Etymology: Proximity + Limiter >>> Proximity (closeness; the state of being near as in distance, time, or relationship) Limiter (that which limits or restricts access)

Pronunciation: ruk-us-teer-ing

Sentence: The Smiths and the Joneses were next door neighbors and were skilled at ruckusteering. Young Pauly Smith dreamt of an NBA career and spent many hours bouncing his basketball on the cement driveway. He also practised his clarinet rather poorly, late into the evenings. Old Graham Jones liked to start up the leaf blower early on a Sunday morning, and he often used his vast array of power tools until well past midnight. It was hard to focus on anything with such a constant din.

Etymology: 1.ruckus - a violent disagreement. 2. racketeering - engaging in a racket.

Pronunciation: fen sen em ees

Sentence: The neighbours often saw the Browns & The Smiths next door to them fighting over petty things, like in whose yard whose cat toiletted and whose tree was overhanging whose yard. The walkway between their yards was like the Demilitarized Zone...neutral but dangerous with the possibility of being caught in the crossfire. Their parents always said they fought tooth and nail growing up and now they were fencenemies. Just what possessed this brother and sister to buy homes next door to each other is still a mystery.

Etymology: Fence (a boundary line created by a fence) & Enemies (not friends;any group of hostile people)
