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

Gnathic
Gnathic means "of jaws". Hope that helps. Your invented meanings were great - and a lot more interesting than "of jaws". I liked them all. The favourite with the voters was the invented definition of Auntibeck. Well, done!

If a person is gnathic they have the belief that there is only one god, and he has one large eye that sees everything. The newer gnathics in the world believe that the one large eye is in the middle of god's belly whereas the older gnathics tend †o believe that the eye is in the middle of the forehead. All gnathics believe the eye to be blue.
A gnathic is a person who denies the existence of gnats. This way, one is not irritated when attacked by swarms of gnats while playing battmitton in the yeard in the summer. If a gnathic focuses just right, the swarm of gnats actually resembles a moist cloud.
Gnathic is the term used to describe Goth Gnomes. These Gnomes aren't dressed in bright clothes with ruddy, chubby faces...oh no....they are thin, deathly pale and wear black lipstick.
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.

Simple. Gnathics are people who grind (or gnawing) their teeth while they are sleeping.
Aackk. Take the -ing out of gnawing. It's gnaw. Sorry.
