There's actually a word to describe/define the fusion of two words that forms a new one. The word is "portmanteau".

I have a tendency to use totally made-up words to describe conditions/things that aren't in a dictionary...but should i.e. "sniglets". My favorite...."snoozle"....the dried schnozola residue that your dog leaves on sliding glass doors and car windows. "Cheedle", the orange residue left on your fingers after eating Cheetos. Now, what would be a good word to describe glass door canine "art" if an interesting pattern were to be discovered?

Pet peeve phrases.....over-use of "you know".....over-use as in every dang sentance by some folks. Is dang a word? Over use of hyphenated words. Huh....did just use some hyphens? Well, all be monkey's uncle......and where did that phrase come from anyway. Andy why are we beginning to sound like Andy Rooney?
