Word of the Day, winner
|
A short reminder:
Today �s word of the day is
podobromhydrosis
You have one more hour to send in your personal suggestions, then the winner will be declared.
Or, since you seem to be in the playing mood, how about another prolongation game loke Anita started last week...?
edit: It goes like this: One person says a word, the next
person repeats it and adds ONLY ONE word of his/her own to prolongue a
sentence. The sentence can be stopped at any time, and a new one can be
started. The key thing is to keep the story going. So if Peter says A, I
would say A man, and Sarah would say A man walked... etc. How about it?
Up for a challenge??? (from the thread I gave below)
I �ll give you a stimulus...

Then you realized you ran out of flour. "How can I make a cake without flour?"" you said to yourself. " I guess I have to go ask some flour as I don �t feel like shopping today." You felt that way because you had some podobrohydrosis - a disease that affects your feet (podo) and can be fixed with . DROSIS is a suffix - it tells us that the previous word is a disease. (also see Hyperhidrosis).

OK, folks, let �s stop this for today, you �ve proved enough wit for today. I have to go, but not without passing on the baton to the next lucky winner!
The answers can be found here:

The real meaning of my word is
SMELLY FEET
And the winner is
STEXSTME!
She showed so much wit in her knock knock game, and her definition made me crack up: So she�s the witty queen today!

Hiya Petra!
Bombilations! This is a nice word!! Latin , again! =
pod = for i-pod
o- bro = shortened for �Oh! Brother �
m = Hmm... = Not sure
hydro = water
-sis = Serious matter!
ie = Podobromhydrosis = " Oh! Brother! I �m not sure, but I think you �ve dropped your i-pod into the water again!"
( my deepest apologies to i-pods or/and brothers I might have offended! )
Sylvie Congratulations and thanks for playing everyone!
