I make up words, most of the time by accident, but sometimes it fits so perfectly to the situation, I think I should adopt it so it doesn't just disappear forever.
Once in a while I have made one up on purpose. Only one comes to mind at this moment and that is thingadore. It's for when I LOVE something that is a thing. I do love some things, but it's not the same kind of love I have for people. I know love has many applications and people general know how you mean it by whatever context that's been said, but I wanted a different word for the "things" I love.
Weird..... but it counts.
