Pronunciation: /MUG-ner-uhnt/

Sentence: George would stop by the convenience store every day after his morning run to buy Gatorade, and he was sure the young woman who worked there liked him. She would crinkle her nose in the cutest way, and cover her face with her hand when he flirted with her. He figured she was just shy. One day there was a new girl there, even cuter than the regular girl, and she did the same thing when George approached the counter, smiling at her. He decided to ask her out, but when he did, she said "No, you stink! Are you mugnorant or something?"

Etymology: Mug - a human face [informal] (from Norwegian, mugge "pitcher"; usage from cups adorned with grotesque faces) + Ignorant - lacking education or knowledge (from Latin, ignorare "not aware")

Pronunciation: viz ah jen ne ree

Sentence: Let's face it, Claude is a visagenary when it comes to reading people...he can't. He has a lot of cheek, he gives a lot of lip and it's hard for him not to brow beat people. He nose it is wrong, but he runs off at the mouth. Clause does it for attend chin and rather than lose face, he misinterprets peoples' expressions. One of these days, he will get it in the kisser if he's not careful... a homemade facelift. Then no one will be able to read his facial expressions either, cause he'll have to go to a plastic surgeon, not a real one to save face.

Etymology: Visage (the appearance conveyed by a person's face;the human face) & Nary (not a one) & Visionary (a person with unusual powers of foresight;a person given to fanciful speculations and enthusiasms with little regard for what is actually possible)

COMMENTS:

Ha! I read "attend chin" about ten times before I got it, then I laughed like a maniac... I'm so tired. Nice word though! - Tigger, 2008-07-09: 01:35:00

Pronunciation: a dowt fayss

Sentence: Pinky had always thought she was a visagenist, someone who could read faces and know what people were thinking. That was until she met Bruno. It did not help that Pinky had little control over her own facial expressions. What he interpreted as amourous curiosity on her part, was actually a look of constipation. His leer at her was actually gas pains from the chili he had eaten earlier. Her adoubtface would end in them enjoying a bottle of Pepto together later.

Etymology: A Doubt (a lack confidence in or have doubts about;an uncertainty about the truth or factuality of existence of something;the state of being unsure of something)& Face (the front of the human head from the forehead to the chin and ear to ear; the expression on a person's face;status in the eyes of others) & play on word About-face (change one's mind and assume the opposite viewpoint;a reversal in attitude or principle or point of view;act of pivoting 180 degrees, especially in a military formation)
