Linguafreakout
Created by: readerwriter
Pronunciation: lihng-gwa-freek-owt
Sentence: Her parents thought it might have begun with that cute little sock monkey she was given on her first birthday. But, as her world expanded to include a pet dog, generations of hamsters, three cats, birds of many colors and sizes, endless trips to many zoos across the country, horses and a private stable at twelve, the llamas and alpacas, that safari in her twenties followed by an attempt at veterinary school, the cycles between her linguafreakouts were becoming closer and closer.
Etymology: From LINGUA FRANCA, meaning language used by persons who speak different languages + FREAK OUT, slang, meaning to make or become highly agitated

Zoommunicate
Created by: Tigger
Pronunciation: /zoo-MYOO-ni-keyt/
Sentence: Trudy always knew she wanted to work with animals, since they were the only ones who seemed to understand her. She would visit the zoo several times a week because she liked to think that she could zoommunicate with the animals there. When there were no other visitors around, she would speak out loud to them, explaining how insensitive and heartless other humans were. Trudy would make her rounds, spending time with different creatures and trying to avoid the crowds. At first the animals at the zoo seemed to show interest in her monologues, but most of them were used to her presence by now and she was beginning to sense their boredom with her. Trudy was going to have to look for another zoo soon — she might even have to move to another city — in order to find a group of animals who were ready for a long-term committment.
Etymology: Zoo - a park or facility where animals are kept (from Greek, zoion "an animal") + Communicate - to express thoughts, feelings, or information easily or effectively (from Latin, commūnicāre "to impart, make common")

Looking at the word alone, I like it, so far. - stache, 2008-03-28: 01:23:00
I am sorry if I have unintentionally "stolen" or plagiarize your word. I have included an alternative verbotomy for today: "Assissiate" - OZZIEBOB, 2008-03-28: 04:17:00
Oh no, did we post the same word at the same time, Bob? No worries. - Tigger, 2008-03-28: 11:54:00
I could just go with my 2nd choice, "Varminteract" (varmint + interact) as an alternate. - Tigger, 2008-03-28: 12:03:00
Nice sentence. I considered, 'animonologue,' but thought it too one-way. - stache, 2008-03-28: 12:48:00
Impossible for me not to vote for this one. "Great" minds, and all that stuff! - OZZIEBOB, 2008-03-28: 23:41:00
