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.

Razzia is the product name of hair gel used exclusively by people with spikey mohawks. The gel is designed for those daring few with spikes longer than six inches - each.
Razzia is the collective - and correct - academic term for any type of negaitive audience response at a live performance or event.
Jeers and catcalls were just part of the razzia Ashley Simpson heard Saturday...
Razzia is a new carbonated drink. It's highly caffeinated, even more so than Jolt (and more effective than coffee), that it really keeps you awake and moving. Jarringly so.
Word to the wise: Don't drink this before bed.
Razzia is what chefs call that drizzle of raspberry sauce they use to dress up the dessert plates.
Seriously, a chocolate torte without the razzia is just not worth eating.
A razzia is the pair of wooden boards monks in Greek monasteries beat together to call their fellow monks to prayer.
A Razzia is the correct term for a piece of music in a Jazz jam session that has a beginning, but seems to have no end. The Jazz musicians get into a Jazz trance and the Razzia goes on and on. The longest Razzia on record took place in Alabama on June 2nd 1953 and was still going three days later on June 4th. The only reason the Razzia came to an end is because Blind Billy Evans, the greatest Jazz drummer in all the world, fell asleep.
Razzia. n. an organized crime syndicate comprised entirely of urban rodents.
Ironically, when these rodents are busted by the vermin cops, they have a tendency to say, "you dirty human!"
