Tonight I came across something fun:
a fake word generator. I'm always curious about word etymology, and even fake words like these can be sussed out in semi-logical fashion and given reasonable meanings based on their structure, since they're made up of real prefixes and suffixes.
Here's a few of my favorites, in no particular order:
- Novanoid
- Luezoid
- Feandra
- Claster
- Frorealm
- Moderock
- Felsither
- Yodacloud (hmm, tut tut, rain it looks like, yes!)
- Pentwist
So if you had to assign meanings to these words, what meanings would you choose? Which word would you want to catch on the most? (I like "Claster," a portmanteau word of "clash" and "plastered" and meaning "one who frequently engages in drunken brawls," especially if it later becomes a surname.)
