Desquamatory

Desquamatory actually means coming off in scales. I'm glad I know that now, as I'm sure it will come in useful some day. Your invented meanings were all even more wonderfully crafted than usual. Thanks for working so hard to come up with originality and creativity galore. After a very long wait, I'm happy to announce Lydia as the winner on this occasion. Well done, Lydia.

Sternutative

Sternutative describes something which causes you to sneeze. Useful, I'm sure you'll agree. Thanks for your excellent invented meanings. I enjoyed them very much. Congratulations to Thinks! who has come up trumps again with the voters.

Noetic

I can be described as noetic, even though I wasn't aware of it until now. A noetic person is given to intellectual pursuits. It refers to anything related to the intellect. And if anything relates to the intellect, it's this blog. So we're all noetic. Thanks for your noetic invented meanings. The winner on the poll was Yaamyn. Well done, Yaamyn.

Phillumenist

A phillumenist, for those who haven't already cheated by looking it up in the dictionary, is a collector of match box labels. Probably an old school hobby since I'm not sure there are that many match boxes produced these days. Feel free to prove me wrong, though. I'm hoping that little gem will be of use some time when one of us is on 'who wants to be a millionaire?' Anyway, I digress. Your invented meanings were exceptional, as usual. The votes were well spread, but Thinks! came away with a good win. Well done!

Clumber

Oddly enough, a clumber is a type of spaniel. I was thoroughly impressed with your invented meanings, as usual. The pollsters chose the meaning contributed by Sandy Feet as today's winner. Great work, SF.
