Re:
Yes, I am very fortunate that my wife and I have this kind of relationship. I can finish her sentences, and she mine, and if either of us flub on a word or two, we always know what the other one meant. There's never an argument, and it's always fun. However, she now claims that she's used the word boughten before I did, but I don't ever remember hearing her saying it! Hmmm . . . I guess we'll just have to take duel credit for that one!

Re: I think I sometimes have done so...unwittingly....but I didn't somehow
Well, you'll just have to wait and see if that particular word comes up again, and then you'll have to jot it down! Eventually, I think we'll all be able to give Mr. Webster a run for his money!

Re: LOL...Just ask Wiley....my vocabulary is loaded with home spun words along
Sure, home-spun words can be great for confusing
some of the people
some of the time. But when they start to completely understand what you were
trying to say is when it's really time to worry!
