Actually, no one knows what language the Huns spoke. They probably spoke more than one, since they were more of a federation than an ethnic group. Anyway, it's a fascinating question. Now and then you find weirdos who insist that this or that place name in Switzerland or whatever is an old Hun name. But no one knows.

I assume all the narcolepsy comments are intended to convey that people know what "hypnagogic" means.

is that numbness coming from the brachial plexus or the distal phalanx of the median part? yanno, i could fix that so you'd be more comfortable.

i'll be amongst the intelligent and good looking; he's already got a backup linguistician.

"Spathic" (as I discovered by looking it up) means "showing or characterized by good cleavage"--except that it's cleavage in a mineralogical sense, so you speak of "spathic" ore, not "spathic" chicks. Clever.

I'm pretty sure "busk" is a slang word. A busker is someone who performs for money in the street.

New word...frisson

Ah, but for a paranomasiac like myself, spathic is a perfect term to use with chicks - fulfilling two needs at once as it were.

a frisson is a sudden thrill, sometimes of fear, other times of excitement

new word - nocuous

I assume that would have to mean "harmful"--opposite of "innocuous."

OK, next word...lues
