Pronunciation: hu-la-dyüp

Sentence: The first time Kimberly saw Zinnia was on a school bus in 1993. Zinnia was a new student and nobody on the bus would budge an inch to afford her a seat. Nervously, and awkwardly, Zinnia positioned and braced herself as the bus lurched toward school, continually redistributing her body weight and the weight of her backpack in rhythm with the jerky, crowded vehicle. Kimberly tried to articulate the intricate dance Zinnia seemed to be performing, and when the bus braked just hard enough for Zinnia to fall face-first, Kimberly had an epiphany: "Hula-dupe!"

Etymology: hula (a hip-centric dance popular at Hawaiian resorts) + dupe (someone easily fooled)
