This is a fun word to say – gallimaufry, which means a jumbled medley (can also refer to an edible dish). Why you need such a long word for that, I do not know…
But here are some sentences showing how you can use it:
Tina made her famous bean gallimaufry with chickpeas, kidney beans, and black beans.
Or…
The students had to made a gallimaufry of pictures from their field trip for their final project.
Twirlblast is such a fun old word. How old? Well according to certain sources twirlblast dates back to the 1700s. Twirlblast simply put is an old name for tornado. I don’t know why they ever decided to change it to tornado since the older name for it sounds so much betters.
Examples of using Twirlblast in a sentence:
The town was devastated by a class 5 twirlblast.
Or…
The child’s room looked like a twirlblast tore through.
Since this is a special weekend for everyone in some way, shape, or form – I wanted to share with you a link I found today in regards to forgotten Christmas words. As I only have the weekend to share these amazing words, and I only do this once a week I thought I’d share the link instead of sharing the words. The reason… there was too many good words to choose from and I wanted to share them all with you.
My favourite word from the list is tied between Yule-skrep and bummock. Which word is your favourite?

Guttle is best describe as gobble greedily or to stuff one’s gut with food.
For example:
