NEW WORDS. RAB’s posts about new words formed by students under pressure show the English language renewing itself. “Crisping away” is new. Here are some of the other new words:
from the August 12 post:
“Even though he broke the law, he did not have mal intentions.â€
“She had a long carriage period and a difficult labor.â€
From the August 18 post:
“frivolocity”
“government mumble-jumble”
“flustrated” (Since RAB has encountered this neologism 3 or 4 times, this word may be on the way to passing the usage test).
