Have fun with a new word each day. I'll choose a word. You make up a meaning.

Naker
A naker is a kettledrum. I hope that isn't too disappointing for you all! And very well done for keeping the invented meanings within the realm of family entertainment as usual. The winner on the poll was suggested by Calie. Congrats again, Calie.

Naker is the term college frat boys use to describe drinking beer in their birthday suits.
Naker:(s) Noun - A toddler who won't keep his clothes on for any length of time. A small child who has a compulsion to run around in his birthday suit.
You can always tell a naker when you see a mom running desperately with a new diaper whilst picking up a shoe here, and a sock there and a shirt over there.
"When Penny began her new babysitting job, it didn't take her long to figure out that little Freddy was a naker."
Desperate housewives who live on Wisteria Lane often employ the services of a Naker. A Naker is a fine specimen of young man who rakes leaves in your yard, wearing nothing but a smile.
Well, you can tell where this group's thoughts run....most definitions centered around naked. But a naker, pronounced "nack-er", is really a person who collects knick-knacks. It used to be "nickernacker", but that seemed too wordy, so it got shortened to just plain "naker".
Shari That's fine. I didn't mind your comment at all. It was a bit deep for my children to grasp. And, they do sometimes enter with their own invented meanings but seldom read it for themselves. However, I do want it to be family friendly so we'll keep that in mind. Thanks for your concerns.
Naker. Pronouced "Nack-er." A person with expertise for a particular activity. "John has a "nack" for hitting rabbits in a shooting gallery. His friends call him a "nacker" for short." Hey Nacker, bet you can't beat me in the duck blind!"
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.
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.

Sharing the gutters with most of you.
A naker is the person who sees a naked person, the nakee. (Don't ask me what I think of Hardee's, a fast-food joint.)
Sorry for the x-rated comment. I just remembered that your kids read this blog. You can delete it if you want.
Just wanted to say that the voting poll disappeared.
The little known fourth man in the tub. He fell out before you could say "rub a dub dub."
