Word of the Week
Jan. 25th-Jan 31st
Word: ebullience

[jeeves...]

You should say it, but PAIGE SHOULDN'T ANNOUNCE IF GUESSES ARE RIGHT OR WRONG YET. So nobody will know if their guess is correct or incorrect until the end of the week.

Heyyy... I thought the W.O.W. was gonna be purbiculiosis or something like that (whatever I made up, I can't remember)?

[jeeves...]

i'm guessing... gosh i dunno, something with like, "extravagant decoration", or, like, really fancy, shiny, i dunno...

[♥♫ Bethany, ≡ PURPLE UNICORNS! ≡]

Lol. As usual, I have no clue!

[♫sitting out dances on the wall♫]

High spirits!

I know, but I decided it's not fair to have a word that doesn't actually exist, you know? I'm sorry....

Nope, I won't tell until the end of the week....

[*jasper[♥]alice*]

hey, what does that word even mean? i've heard it before.....

[jeeves...]

yeah, like, the end of the week is pretty much gone now, paige, you can tell us ...

[Emily]

yeah...it's now tuesday, FEBRUARY 3rd lol

[*jasper[♥]alice*]

wootwoowttt!! no, um seriously could u tell us??

[jeeves...]

*waitz*

....

....i s'pose i could just look it up, now that the week's over... nah, that would rob paige of her priveleges... *sighz*

[Emily]

u could alwayz look it up and not tell her :P
but that would be evil and devious and maniacal which i know isn't u right monolith?

[jeeves...]

hmm.... noh, it izzint.... O.O :D

[*jasper[♥]alice*]

hahahahahahaha

[♥♫ Bethany, ≡ PURPLE UNICORNS! ≡]

Well, Paige... The point of a made-up word is that they guess for fun...

Like FRUITABLE!!! Isn't it fun to try to guess what a pretend word is, by breaking the word up into parts?

You could break FRUITABLE up into fruit-able. Then from there you can probably guess it's a fruit-vegetable.

[♥♫ Bethany, ≡ PURPLE UNICORNS! ≡]

With a real word that's just long and confusing, how is anybody supposed to guess? They have nothing to guess by.

Fruitable: fruit-able: fruit-vegetable
(You can kind of tell!)

Ebullience: ebul-lience: ?????!?!?!?!!!
(You can't really tell! I don't know what the base ebul- means! I know poly- mono- bi- tri- stuff like that. But not ebul- !!!)

Nobody would know what it means, unless they had already known the word before....

[jeeves...]

actually, i would guess "able to be fruited", which would only confuzz me more, so... :D

[♥♫ Bethany, ≡ PURPLE UNICORNS! ≡]

Well, something like that! =P But you could break up the word to at least GUESS. Ebullience... There's nothing to help you form a guess.

[jeeves...]

haha, yeah... i dunno :P :D

[♥♫ Bethany, ≡ PURPLE UNICORNS! ≡]

Yeah =P

[*jasper[♥]alice*]

ohohohoh!!! a fruitable i HAVE an example!!

ex number 1: TOMATO is a FRUITABLE

[jeeves...]

wow, there is now so much paige bait on this topic... where is she!? haha, wasn't she the one with the whole article on how the tomato was a... i hope i don't get this wrong.... fruit? haha, that was awesome...

[*jasper[♥]alice*]

oh....welll

[Yui]

wait so are we supposed to just try using the word?

[Paige]

oops, sorry guys and gals *blushes*

Okay, ebullience means:

1. high spirits; exhilaration; exuberance.
2. a boiling over; overflow

And Bethany, I get your point, but if no one knows what a purble is, how would they know what purblicious meant?

AND TOMATOES ARE NOT FRUITABLES!!! THEY ARE FRUITS!!!

[♥♫ Bethany, ≡ PURPLE UNICORNS! ≡]

It doesn't have to be "purbilicious" !!! =P
