Neologistic Limerick

By Katanga

29 September 2008

A bit 'in-house', this one - apologies!

There's a nod to a few of you friends out there - if you spot your reference, please review. It would brighten my rubbly evening!

And, though I'm no Edward Lear, it's good fun to play with new words . . .

Beers!

Neologistic Limerick

I'm lexiconically quite crapolectic,
Ilklicumbric, I'm bidialectic.
But Luke Batster from Wales,
like uberwelsh males,
is exquisitely daidialectic!

Loved crapolectic - and if I am in there - that's the bit that likely refers to me!

A good swig of Best washes the rubble dust away nicely.

Droll, Tolstoy, very droll.

Many things have I been called, but never Luke Baster (like that, though in my defence I've only ever Luke Basted once!)
Liked this, some lovely neologisms - loved 'uberwelsh', but then I would, boyo bach!
'Diadialectic'? Iesu Grist!

Good fun.
Cheers

'Daidialectic'! Not attempting to say that after a few!

I liked the word "lexiconically" which is something to do with lexicons and something to do with laconic. Nice one.

I might have a go at a Luc Bat sometime. But don't hold your breath.

Thank you . . .

. . . Phil, Brett, Pam and Veronica!

Very warming!

A Luc Bat, V.? Yes, please!

They do look tricky to pull off though!

I think there may be good examples of it and many other exotic forms on 'volecentral' if you know the site?

Cheers!

John
