Ever heard of weird words? There are many. I need to know as many as I can, so I'm asking for some weird words from other people.

I'll start.

Here's a weird word: ZENZIZENZIZENZIC. It's a real word, I'm not kidding! It means, roughly, "something to the eighth power".

Here is a reference to weird words: http://www.quinion.com/words/weirdwords/

at Discombobulate. I didn't know it was actually considered a word, and I always thought it was just made up to sound like random technobabble (aka "I had to replace the discombobulator circuit, that'll be $800, enjoy your new fan belt.")

Math terms always tend to sound pretty odd. A fun example is a Dodecahedron, a 20-sided figure. I also always found colonel a bit odd, given that it's pronounced totally different than it's spelled. Computers also introduce some wacky words like Defragmentation or Undelete.

I just made a quiz today for my lj (jokingly) that involved discombobulate, without seeing this thread.

Kind of funny.

Do you know about the word "skedaddle? It means "run away" or "fast retreat"...

What about "skulk" then? That means "keep away, hide or "sneak"...

Maybe I

I thought it was just slang.

"Let'S'Get Out of Here"

That, with a strong New Yawk accent sounds like "S'getta", which sounds kinda like skedaddle =S

Are you making that up? That is a weird word..some weird words just look like someone threw a bunch of letters together and made up some meaning. I should do that..
