Texted

[Maha]

A word commonly used everyday.
Its a word that is with us and possibly should be added to the dictionary.

There are hundreds of made up words used everyday...just take a look at KB logins?
We converse with each other and refer to each other by our login names at times, even face to face...'Maha this is Stify'' ''Stirts meet MSTRS'' etc.
I get called Maha (not a real word) even when standing a few feet away from someone. In fact, Myself and Mom get called The Mahas (once again, not a real word)

I come up with a word a while ago....Maungatawopwop.
Now this word describes a place that one intends on going to but doesn't really know where it is.

There must be other made up words out there, but they have to have a meaning.

Degithexyism ...six fingered residents

[Mully]

Unknown Maori place name:

Waikickamoocow.

[MSTRS]

This could get interesting...
BTW - text is the object, texting is what you are doing while still composing it and once sent, texted is what you did with it.

[Trudes]

How about Google.... is there anyone who doesn't understand what to do when you tell them to "Google it!"

Googie = egg. I had googies for breaky.

Yeah thats been around for years, I think it was used for Waipukarau??

Come up with your own word, and give it a meaning.
There should be a KB dictionary.

[Lissa]

Came across this word today Skadoosh!

You use this word when you are pretending to do Kung Fu, although I do like to practice my Kung Fu in slow motion so then it would be pronounced Sskkaaadoooooossssshhhh! :eek:

Na really its a catch phrase from Kung Fu Panda.

[Trudes]

Whosamawhatsit gave me a Thingamjig, but it was really skodie/manky.

Doh! was introduced to the dictionary a few years ago, though you'll have to have recent dictionary to see it. No reason why texted cant be added.
Text....to send (a text message) by mobile phone.

The word 'text' should have always been in the dictionary. It refers to a body of words. In that context (ha!) 'texted' would not be a word.

Yeah (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/wiki/index.php/Kiwibiker_Lexicon#A)..........

[Oakie]

texted is what you did with it.

Not me. I hate that word (but then I am a fully paid up member of BDOTGNZA). I 'sent a text'. Takes longer to say but is much more elegant.

[Maha]

Yeah (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/wiki/index.php/Kiwibiker_Lexicon#A)..........

We may see the abbreviation used more?

KBAS
Kiwi Biker-approved spelling. A standard for allowed misspelled words on the Kiwi Biker site.

[slofox]

Not me. I hate that word (but then I am a fully paid up member of BDOTGNZA). I 'sent a text'. Takes longer to say but is much more elegant.

Maybe we should say " I TM'ed him" (= text messaged)...easier even than
"texted"

[MSTRS]

Maybe we should say " I TM'ed him" (= text messaged)...easier even than
"texted"

I didn't think that people trafficking was allowed...<_<

[Maha]

T-Mes sounds more phone tech, but then, ''I T-Mesd her'' sounds way better than ''I T-Mesd him''.....:shifty:

[rosie631]

Not me. I hate that word (but then I am a fully paid up member of BDOTGNZA). I 'sent a text'. Takes longer to say but is much more elegant.

That sounds better. I hate texted too but never sure what else to say. Will use 'sent a text' also

[ManDownUnder]

Googie = egg. I had googies for breaky.

I thought that was a "Cackle berry".
Moo Juice (milk) is another good one

[Big Dave]

I call myself Big Dave. People call me Big Dave - amongst other things. I haven't got enough media profile to refer to myself in the third person in quotes yet. Unless it's a PT. BD says so.

[Stirts]

I hate texted too .....

I always say "I textified him/her" now that's classy :msn-wink:

Words like Gargre are often a typo and then become common use.
Do you ever type say...'that', but is comes up tgath?

You can get away with calling yorself Big Dave with a deepish voice, if you sounded like Mike Tyson?.... not so much..!

Someone on KB lives at "Ekatawopwop", now that's a place that no one knows where it's at and they usually dont want to go there either! :shifty:

Funnily enough I have a soft spot for Ekatawopwop. (Ekatahuna) :niceone:

[MisterD]

My favourite neologism of recent times is:

SLOPS - Severe Loss Of Perspective Syndrome

Overdone panic characterising particularly western democracies and the media therein, when confronted by "major" events such as Y2K, Bird/Swine Flu, SARS, Globule Warming etc etc

Ah yes, the Big Kiwi standing proud there.

As a kid, I remember watching that same Kiwi being hoisted onto the top of the then P.D.C (Palmerstons Dirty Corner) Building in Palmmy Norf.

Could there be a ....SLOPS SOAP? A nuerotic auckland dweller?

That kind of person would be known as a.....Degithexyism

[Toot Toot]

Texted is the wrong terminology.

The word is singular, as in text.. or "I text him the message" not Texted him the message.

It like saying there a lots of sheeps instead of lots of sheep.

[avgas]

shabang - to automatically place something in an instant (also refered to as shabam!)
dialed-in - adjusted according to set specifiactions
FOB -
jizzed -
kumara-pit - local drinking tavern

I heard 'Giza' on TV the other day...means 'please can I buy a vowel'....:confused:

[Stirts]

Only if there is a money shot ;)

:shifty: I plead the fifth on that :whistle:

[batwing]

texting would also be the wrong terminology in that case,

i am sending a text
i have sent a text... tis a noun.

we could always say text/taxt as in sit/sat...

[Maha]

Is 'Shat' a word, or did you just do a Shit full stop?

[batwing]

I shitted so hard i shattered the toilet bowl...

[MSTRS]

Then what is texting?

Your thumb...I expect.

Plead is a funny word, for an afternoon endorphin workout say it over and over at least 15 times, out loud, no cheating. Bet ya cant make it to ten!

You've given me a farken lisp now!!

[marioc]

Apparently the word "noob" is on the shortlist to become the one millionith [SP?] word in the english dictionary

[Oakie]

Maybe we should say " I TM'ed him" (= text messaged)...easier even than "texted"

That has possibilities.

I got to 15 easy enough but finished up with a mouth full of spit.

I sent a text to him. I text her yesterday. I will send a text message. I have received so may texts today?

I agree, texted is a crap word, and there is no plural of text.


kumara-pit - local drinking tavern

Ah - we have the snake-pit up this way.

For made up words that are/have been in regular use in this household try;

deeups - blankets

fuffel bin - rubbish bin

ebow - pillow

[Ixion]

Scribere , scriptsit. Therefore , text, textsit (texsit ? ) . Where is MikeL when he is needed I have often maintained that texting , and the ability to text, should be regarded as a fundamental human right and made available free of charge to everyone by the government. Nowadays I cannot envisge not being able to text.

[FJRider]

There should be a KB dictionary.

There is ... "Hitcherasourus" ... :sunny: if you're not sure of the spilling, or make a mistoke, he will advise of your airer.... :innocent:

[FJRider]

"Whatchamacallit" ... translation ... I know what it is, just cant remember the name (real name) of the damm thing...

[Maha]

I sent a message to Jim (the sports reader on the Paul Henry show)

''Jim! it's the Hurricanes NOT the Hurrikins. please be a point of difference (unlike those on another TV Station) where this is concerned''.

He replied... ''I agree, but the TV3 style guide doesn't. I just follow the rules.''

Then I asked.. ''Thank you for your reply, so it reads 'the Hurrikins' on the auto cue? all sports reporters switch from 'the Hurrikins' to the shortened version 'the canes' you're not alone. Rules can be changed Jim''.

He left it at that.
Pleased to hear the coach at least say the Hurricanes when being interviewed a few nights ago.

I also heard the ''word'' texes on TV the other night when someone was referring to send a text. ie: I sent texes.

[Maha]

Being semi retired, I spend less time on here than those in ''full employment''. My hobby is doing shit when I want to, oh and NOT mowing the lawns.

I will never send a texes to the Hurrinkins.
