Peekunease

Created by: Tigger

Pronunciation: /PEEK-uh-neez/ (like the common pronunciation of "Pekingese")

Sentence: When Joyce returned from the store, she tried on her new swimsuit once again, but this time felt a sudden sense of 'peekunease'. She turned to see little Fluffly staring up at her, regarding her with, what felt to her like, disapproval and morbid curiousity at the same time.

Etymology: peek - to peer furtively (c.1374, piken "look quickly and slyly," of unknown origin) + unease - state of discomfort or awkwardness (un- "not" ease - from Old French, aise "comfort, pleasure") & Pekingese - breed of small dog originally from Peking, China
