Pronunciation: van-eh-tee-pee

Sentence: Vanity, vanity...saith the Preacher...all is vanity. Shane, taking refuge from the city, didn't know if he was shivering with excitement or from the cold, but in this darkness before the dawn, he was sure he had come up with the perfect solution to the housing problem he faced. He had heard of the Tiny House Movement...now how about the Tiny Tee Pee Movement? He stared around the sides of his van. He could see his invention so vividly. He could help others. He would call them Vaniteepees. It would be Spring soon and the snow would be melting. Then he could open up the roof, even take off the sides. There were plenty of small trees to use. Once he got the trees down, he wondered where he would get the material to cover the sides...but, never mind, it was great to dream. It sure would be nice to be able to build a fire right in the middle of your own house. Those Indians had a good idea. He curled up tighter. He would start whittling tomorrow...

Etymology: From VAN, a boxed-shaped vehicle on 4 wheels + TEE PEE, from the Lakota language meaning "to dwell;" also playing on VANITY, the excessive belief in own's own abilities

Pronunciation: otto dwel ler

Sentence: Danny had become an autodweller when his stocks plummeted, the bank foreclosed and he lost his home. He moved his family to the country and parked their family sedan, which became their new home. He was not sure if he were a Dodgelodger, an Autonomad, a Vehiculardomicile, Hyundenizen, or a CarResident...the sedantics did not matter. There were a few advantages to living the gypsy life. They could tour the country, meet new people, try new schools every month and redecoration was an obsolete word to them...at least until the gas ran out!

Etymology: Auto (automobile;4-wheeled motor vehicle; usually propelled by an internal combustion engine) & Dweller (a person who inhabits a particular place)
