Word of the Day

I’m angry too, too. Ok got the pink ballerina image out of your head? I have also neglected this blog as if it were my child that liked the Yankees.  And I apologize holding my ears.  Anyway,  I ran across the word portmanteau today, and intrigued me. Especially because I saw it on a comedy website. I instantly went to my primary source of knowledge when flustered and deficit of attention; Google. The definition according to MDubs (Merriam Webster) is as follows:

a word or morpheme whose form and meaning are derived from a blending of two or more distinct forms (as smog from smoke and fog)

There are many portmanteaus that we throw around regularly. Spork. Claymation. Spanglish, etc. So I thought I’d make some of my own.

Harvin’s Proper Portmanteaus

Storring-Something Stupid and Boring

Minter-Combination of Minty and Bitter, like when you drink orange juice after brushing your teeth

Harvin-Hard and Vindicated

Make your own in the comments for a special prize to be name Slater (sometime later)!!
