Out Of The Mouth Of Babes: Add these words to your vocabulary

Want to impress others by adding some edgy and impressive new words to your vocabulary? Try these creative words offered by my own kids and my facebook friends' children... Over the years our family has developed several new words that we have integrated into our everyday use.   My kids are exceptionally good at combining two words into an entirely new word that actually makes sense. Last week I posted some of our family's favorites words on Facebook and asked for some input from other friends and fans. They did not disappoint...as if I need another reason to love Facebook! Consider adding these words to your vocabulary...

Butcept

(but + except) "I want to do my chores butcept I'm not feeling well"

To-later

(tomorrow + later) "Mom, Can we go the store tolater?"

Bed-night

(bedtime + nighttime) "I want a bed-night snack before I go to sleep"

Ignoying

(ignorant + annoying)  "Stop being so ignoying!"

Here are some gems from my Facebook Friends

(Julie de Azevedo-Hanks & Julie de Azevedo Facebook walls)

Newfit

Michele -- My youngest use to call any new outfit that she received a "newfit". Funny thing was just a few years later JCpenney's used that word in one of their advertisements. We had a good giggle over that.

Cheese papers

Carrie -- My sons call pre-sliced cheese "cheese papers". We've all adopted it and I forget that it isn't the correct term until I tell someone I have to run to the store to buy cheese papers and they look at me funny.

Verse (as a verb)

Tracey -- my boys use "verse" as a verb. "do you want to verse me in tennis?" "I versed him in handball". Hilarious...and kinda makes sense.

Buttmom

Amy--"but mom" I usually tell them I am not "butt mom"

Hoosey

Bill--My grandson uses the term "Hoosey" as an adjective. "Lightening mcQueen is a Hoosey fast car!"

Posta

Lisa -- ‎"Posta" I was posta do my chores.

Yabutt

Laurel -- Yabutt (yeah + but)

Whabou

Elizabeth-- My 8 yr old grandson always says "whabou" I always respond, "how do you spell that?". W H A T A B O U T

Imaginating

Elizabeth--Imaginating...And my granddaughter will be sitting quietly and when I ask what she's doing, she responds, "I'm just imaginating, Grammy."

Beginst

Mike-- beginst (beside+against). made sense to me.

Eyedeekay

Emily --My kids say I.D.K like its an actual word...thank you texting. ( I don't know) We also have the yabut at our house. Oh and shup (shut up which I do NOT appreciate either!! LOL)

Notatoy

Becky -- The remote has been called a "notatoy" for 32 years ( our oldest son thought that was what it was as everytime he picked up my husband would say "that is not a toy".

Mote

Darcell-- my daughter say's" mote" for the TV remote.

Lundin

Vickie -- We started calling a late lunch "lundin" when my kids were little because it was in between lunch time

Lasternight

Rebecca-- My 4 year old says "Lasternight we went to Grandpa's house, remember?" It's like yesterday... but... laster-night!

Ginormous

April -- Ginormous. Gigantic + enormous. They all use that one.

Redifficult

April--  "you are being ridifficult" combination of ridiculous and difficult. only when she is mad at me for not getting her way.
