Made up words

They are real words!

"At this moment of time" a phrase, I admit, and one that annoyed my English teacher who said, and I tend still to agree with her, "What you mean is "now"."

However, I happily use "at the present moment" and don't feel that "now" expresses quite the same

I think some new words and phrases fill a void in the language. "Weekend" was new around 1914, you know.

How would we manage without it?

But other innovations are superflous because there already is a word that says the same thing.

Iif we don't need them, they will fall out of use again.

Oh yes, MawB!

That's a smashing word!

Remember George Dubyah Bush?

“Don’t misunderestimate me”

Aren't all words 'made up'?

Not that I'm sticking up for Piers. Can't stand the toad.

Shakespeare was the true master- language evolves.

I love made-up words children invent. Like flutterby, helidoctor, cephalant

I have no time for Piers Morgan but that is another subject.
Are you not a fan of Shakespeare then?

Same here! I'm not a pedant as such but words like 'musicality' also annoy me!

They're probably in the dictionary by now but it seems that ....ivity and ... ality can be added to any word nowadays!
