Pronunciation: mel-lan-col-lie

Sentence: Jake, a border collie, hated being left behind and felt melancollie and dejected. So the highly intelligent and talented dog who could control a flock of sheep or geese with just a look, would also use his stare to control his owner, making her feel very guilty for leaving him.

Etymology: melancholy: tending to promote sadness and gloom + collie: herding dog originating from the British Isles - Border Collies in particular have a distinct "gaze" that they use to control sheep, geese, children or anything that moves (except for cats, who stare back at them and refuse to be herded)

Pronunciation: doen-lee-mee-alone

Sentence: She watched him walk slowly down the sidewalk as they parted ways for the night. They both hated this part. Saying good-night was almost the equivalent to good-bye for them. He turned for one last glance and noticed she had that donleamealone look on her face. His eyes filled with tears. He hated that look & it filled his heart with such an unfathomable pain to see. He quickly turned back around and rounded the corner and got in his car. Once inside, he let out a huge sigh and wiped his eyes. "One day", he thought as the engine roared to life, "I won't ever have to see that look again."

Etymology: Don't (contraction of do not) + Leave (to depart from) + Me (the objective case of I, used as a direct or indirect object) + Alone (separate, apart, or isolated from others)
