Pronunciation: matt-trih-mohn-o-log

Sentence: When Jenna's husband would begin a droning matrimonologue about the good old days in the frat house in college, she would escape through the back door in her mind. Today she found herself in the middle of the Caribbean aboard a pirate ship, with Captain Fabio, who proceeded to use his "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Spray" in the most debaucherous of manners. Oddly enough, her husband was having a very similar fantasy, but with substantially more Greek-letter-inscribed paddling.

Etymology: matrimony + monologue

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: yoōnə-blathər-əl

Sentence: Joan and Jane are best of friends. Theirs is a perfect uniblatheral relationship. Joan has BMW disorder (bitch, moan, whine) if there is a topic to be discussed, she has an issue with some part of it. Jane is a one-person support group. Through numerous years of vigorous training she has developed the ability to listen without really hearing and nod at appropriate moments. That way her expression never gives it away when one of Joan's tirades is a repeat, as so many of them are.

Etymology: unilateral (performed by or affecting only one person) + blather (talk long-windedly without making very much sense)
