2020 has been a busy year for me. I’m hoping that things slow down a bit in 2021 and I get to be more creative.

Anyway, I ran across The Word Machine, by Timo Van Neerden. (It’s part of his web tools package, which you can find here.) In no time at all, I came up with about 30 pseudo-English words:

I like these. And I’m pretty sure that English—which has more words than most languages, but still lacks the right word at times—can use some of these. 

Just look at “bacue”. I can’t decide if this means “a cue to add bacon to a dish, or to add more bacon” or if it simply means “a slice of bacon”. It could go either way:

This soup has a couple of bacues. It’s kind of bland.

I don’t know what you’re talking about. I used six bacues when I made it!

For what it’s worth, here’s the complete list of randomly generated words. If I think of a definition of some, I’ll add them in below. If you have some ideas, please leave a comment.
