Gigglesnorts: most people who have seen this word seem to use it. That is still not very many people, but I will call this early, unintentional experiment an success.
FLAM: Not really my word, but again, it seems to be spreading around NC and beyond. Updates later.
Mihi: Only Phy and one or two latin geeks use it :(
New additions:
Iste: This disreputable, from latin.
Ipse: An intensifier. I ipse think that's bullshit. I myself think that's bullshit.
And a question. If I added a random dialectal word (meaning an uncommon word not in my dialect) to my internet language every week, how long until I got attacked by wild beasts? Would one a month be better?

changing the english language with intent.......fun!!!
I will definitely be using gigglesnort from now on.
What does mihi mean?
And could ipse be taken also in the context of "I really think that's bullshit"? Or is it specifically reflexive?
And add words as you like and i will contribute to your campaign as I can. :D

Date: 2004-03-25 01:56 pm (UTC)Ipse is NOT a reflexive, it's an intensifier. From Latin. It just sounds like a reflexive. I myself think I'm brilliant! He himself said so. She herself should know better. I can't think of the declining off the top of my head, and I don't wanna scare you.
