I'm addicted to Arrested Development. - jadenguy, 2007-06-08: 09:25:00

perhaps i should change my sentence since i've gotten no attention for a clearly awesome word... - jadenguy, 2007-06-08: 11:26:00

Awww, don't pout! Here's some attention... ATENTION PEOPLE! PLEASE CHECK OUT JADENGUY'S WORD. IT'S QUITE LOVELY. Better? - purpleartichokes, 2007-06-08: 11:38:00

actually, i'm smiling a bunch now. that was amusing! thanks. - jadenguy, 2007-06-08: 12:12:00

sorry jadenguy - there are just so many good words today and yours is definitely a great one - Jabberwocky, 2007-06-08: 12:37:00

i was just joking because my sentence is terribly esoteric, nominally tangentially related to the word, and the product of a lot of allusionary jokes. purpleartichoke did get me to chuckle, so all's well that ends with laughter. - jadenguy, 2007-06-08: 15:03:00

hehe to that sentiment - Jabberwocky, 2007-06-08: 15:05:00

hehe to that sentiment - Jabberwocky, 2007-06-08: 15:05:00

Pronehoundsiation

Created by: Nosila

Pronunciation: prone hownd see ashun

Sentence: Maggie used pronehoundsiation when speaking to her pet dogs. She was sure they had a simpler grasp of our language and therefore litterally spoke to all of them as though they were stupid, hard of hearing and/or impervious to the teasing of other pets. Her schmoogie-woogie Schnauzer; her oodly-noodly Poodle; her chewzie-woozie Chihuahua; her orky-dorky Yorky and her musky-wusky Husky were all equally embarrassed by her linguistic torture. So they made a pact, every time Maggie used her verbal offensives on them, they would respond in cat-talk. When she used her endearments on them, they would reply with various impersonations of "Meow" "Mew" "Yowww" "SSSSSSSSSSS" and "NoooWWWWW". Maggie was so impressed that she bragged to her friends that her dogs had become bilingual. Isn't that itty, bitty, kitty nifty??? Who's feline better?

Etymology: Pronunciation (the manner in which someone utters a word)& Hound ( any of several breeds of dog)
