I hope he didn't carry it around in his jockqua strap - Jabberwocky, 2008-02-21: 09:38:00

Oh you really jocked it to me! Sentence + verbot = uproarious laughter! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 13:15:00

This word is a whole lot of fun to say! I want to go to a city park with lots of joggers and go 'jockqua' spotting. Really fun word, purpleartichokes! - Tigger, 2008-02-21: 23:08:00

Sentence: Lisa carried that stupid water bottle with her everywhere — even when they went out for lunch. Carl told her, "I'm sure they have Coke or tea here, Lisa. You don't need to bring your own drink." Lisa replied, "My body needs water to stay hydrated. I am an Aquarius, you know." Rolling his eyes, Carl thought to himself, 'You mean an Aquariass, don't you?'

Etymology: Aquarius - eleventh sign of the zodiac; the Water Bearer (Latin literature, "water carrier") + ass - a stupid, foolish, or stubborn person (from Old English, assa "donkey")

Wish you had finished and given us a sentence and etymology. Your verboticism is good, but it would be better if you polished it off with the rest! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 21:04:00

Sentence: The dead victim had been sucking a water bottle when the investigators arrived on the scene. They also couldn't quite miss the numerous water bottles on the kitchen sink and the boxes of mineral water stacked on one side of the kitchen wall. They believe the man was a suckee. However, two sets of fingerprints were lifted off from the bottles. One belonged to the victim and the other to an unknown person.

Pronunciation: sip-BOT-l

Sentence: There they were: a motley mob of drinkwaters, sipsops, aquaholics, potable-notables, hydroeclectics and sipbottles with their prete-a-pote designer bottiglia. I said to Bluey. "Crikey, what's this country coming to when a bloke can't get a beer". Blue nodded, "Dunno, but I got more respect for a koala than this lot. But ya know, Bobbie boy, what "Evian" spells backwards, don't ya? Naive!"

Etymology: SIPBOTTLE:Sip & bottle. PRETE-A-POTE:ready to drink, based on prete-a-porte. KOALA: marsupial whose name means in native languages: one who doesn't drink water. EVIAN: the most popular brand of bottled water in Australia, probably sold worldwide.

COMMENTS:

I really like hydroeclectics - Jabberwocky, 2008-02-21: 13:38:00

My favorite was potable-notables. Bountiful verbots! Bountiful humor! Nice twists! Great sentence! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 13:49:00

How about 'sipsops'? So many to choose from, Bob. Interesting bit about the word 'Koala' too! - Tigger, 2008-02-21: 23:34:00

Mis-spelt the word. Should be hydroplonk. Hydro - water powered. plonk - to be a plonker. Worried that he would dry out completely the hydroplonker persistently pursed for hydro power. - trueblue147, 2008-02-21: 19:43:00

Is hydroplonk related to hydroplonic? Good one! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 20:39:00

You might like to know there's an 'edit' button at the bottom before 'comments and points' ... and early on there's a 'change spelling' button too. Hope this helps you. - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 20:42:00
