Some great ideas there  , so it makes it very difficult to choose a winner...
maybe we should get everyone to janken to fing the winner? No? Ok...
In the spirit of Christmas I declare miss K. the winner!
Her daffynition:
"ding is a sound made by the bells. doul comes from greek doulos meaning servant. er is an english suffix indicating that the word is a noun. So dingdouler is a person who provides whatever service you need if your bells are not working properly. He does jingle bells check up on Santa īs sleigh every year before and after Christmas."
The word is apparently old Canadian & English with the meaning īfine dress/attire �... but according to another source it can also mean ībad dressing style � in some parts of Canada & the UK too 
Now if you can catch up with me in Tokyo I īll see if I can find that ticket for your trip... maybe Ed could carry your suitcase for you too?
 Ho, ho, ho! Merry Christmas everyone  |

It was a pleasent surprise to become winner. Thanks!
It turns out that to come up with a word is more difficult than to give a definition.
As this year comes to an end the next WOD begins with y too! It īs YAKKA.
Keep this thread please and come up with definitions of your own.
