Thank you Mary, for choosing my entry. I am torn between two words. The first one is scuttlebutt. I saw it in the newspaper this morning and had to look it up. Isn�t it a fab word to roll on the tongue? Scuttlebutt. However, I am sticking to my original choice and your new WOD is below. Remember, we don�t want the true definition  , but your own daffynition of this word: TRIVELLIAN |

It�s a tribe of people really hairy everywhere (vello in spanish). So it is a Spanish tribe coming directly from earliest times where they didn�t need except a loin-cloth. This tribe never evolved and live within and adjacent to the woods and caves from all Spain. So be carefull when you come here to visit our caves, you might see one of them!
Look, I�ve seen a trivellian!! |

I agree with Karagozian Sensei although there is another meaning. It is a group of three women that wear triple layered veils at traditional funerals in The Fens. The veils and the women symbolise birth, life and death. Sadly, The Trivellian is becoming an increasingly rare sight at funerals nowadays. |

TRIVELLIAN is a test that you must pass before boarding the SpaceX Dragon capsule to the moon. |

 The trivellian is a rare breed of bees, who are found only in the Three Valley region of New York where the three valleys converge. They produce a medical grade super honey that can cure grongitis and related conditions if the patient stands on one foot in the confluence of the Three Valley Stream at midnight under a full moon on February 29th. |

EDIT: I got a quick response by Maryse. Thanks. Now I see Dale said "Sensei" , what a slip of mine I didn�t realize first he was reading "Japanese characters" as well... |
