*(JAP)MY LATEST LEXICAL TREASURE
*(JAP)MY LATEST LEXICAL TREASURE
Dictionary.com has introduced me to a wonderful new word which I’m about to share with you. I love it! Both for its comical aspect, and for its meaning. But I’m going to preface my discovery with a few general remarks on the topic of the right to free speech. Theoretically, we have this right in South Africa. But oh! the tsunami of outraged howls when a prominent person dares to voice a personal opinion. It would seem that free speech is fine, so long as it doesn’t contradict political correctness. Anyway, I will prudently say no more, and I will leave you to join the dots regarding my latest lexical treasure:

— Carl Solberg, Hubert Humphrey: A Biography, 1984
