Have fun with a new word each day. I'll choose a word. You make up a meaning.
Visit my Writing Bug website
How to Play:
1. I choose an obscure dictionary word.
2. You invent a wacky meaning and add it as a comment.
3. After a certain time I list the true meaning and choose a winner for the invented meaning.
There are no prizes, just lots of fun!
Remember, children use this site too.

About Me
- Word Imp
- I am a children's author who has had a handful of books published by trade publishers. They're in book shops and libraries. I've also had a sackful of books published by educational publishers. These are mainly found in schools. I love words and that's why I invented this blog site.

Snow squall on steroids!
Squaloid is the shape little children draw in the developmental stage before they can produce something that resembles a square.
Squaloid is the name for that feeling you get when you've had just a bit too much to drink and you lie down and the room starts spinning. I have however found a cure for this, lie in bed, but keep one foot anchored to the floor. Works a treat!
A squaloid is a person who evidently enjoys living in squalor.
We have a lot of TV shows here, like Clean Sweep, that help hapless people clean up their wretched abodes. Until I watched the show, I had no idea how many Americans were total squaloids.
Similar to "Denzoid," a squaloid is a particularly unimaginative and lacking in intelligence squatting duck or chicken. "The squaloid duck displayed both poor nesting and poor squatting instincts and the eggs did not hatch."
