What are words you made up when you were young and turns out they were real words? by prashker on 07-07-2006 at 01:46 AM
My word me and my friend made at 7 or 8 years old was "baba ganoush"
We laughed so hard at the word...then a year later we found out it was a real word 
Have you ever had one of those "made up words that were real" ?

You should do a spelling bee with that word (pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis) , it would bee so funny.

It has since been used in a close approximation of its originally intended context, lending at least some degree of validity to its claim.
