New Words for the Lexicon - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 10-08-2009

So far I haven't been having much success bringing "twee" into the American English Lexicon, mostly because there hasn't been great cause to use it while I wander the house and fight with the dogs. But a new word has come across my radar, "Fangasm". As in Batman:The Dark Knight was so stupendous I had a fangasm.

Try and use it today. Maybe the kids are already using it and I'm just and oldy trying to catch up?

Dictionary.com emails me a fresh word every day. I save the ones I think I might use someday.
