Cromulent
Definition: Acceptable, conforming to norms.
Adjective used by a teacher in a Simpsons episode to indicate that an unfamiliar word (embiggen) was a genuine word.
Anyone can make up such a word easily. Pick an ending that indicates the part of speech; in this case, ‘ent’, an adjectival ending, and add some nonsense syllables that sound plausible.
If you come up with any interesting ones, post them along with a definition and any other information you think interesting.
