My offering is the word “circumpolute”. A verb. I define it as the act of encircling the world with trash.

I devised the word while illustrating how many half liter plastic bottles are trashed in the U.S. each year. Enough to circumpolute the world about 71 times each year.

Ginormous was officially included by Merriam-Webster this past year.

We love the word ginormous in our family. We first heard on the movie “Madeline.”

Paul’s World of Funky Stuff cites an article today from the Wall Street Journal giving us a new word: infovore. I like it!

I have a word that I’ve said a few times. “geniecal” a better spelling would be different but its genius and maniacal put together. Also, I don’t think this is a word already but “ginormous” gigantic + enourmous.
