The limits of my language are the limits of my worldSo, if we want to expand our worlds perhaps we should expand our language. One way of doing this might be to invent new words. Initially, this may sound rather unlikely, after all, doesn't one need a special license to invent words? Well, apparently not. In fact, Shakespeare is credited with inventing thousands of words which are still in use today. So, let's see if we can expand our worlds, and express ourselves more effectively, by expanding our language. Feel free to add your new words as comments on this post.

If something can be debunked, does that imply that when one proves a point it should be considered 'bunked'?
I think I will adopt this for a while and see if I can get away with it ;-)
