Behold, for I have coined a new term!
First we have: Penguinic (adj) - (1) Having to do with penguins.
e.g. - The March of the Penguins is a great way to study penguinic life.
(2) Having to do with Penguin books.
e.g. - If only I had the full Penguinic library collection!
and: Penguinistic (adj) - (1) penguin-like.
e.g. -
insptr_penguin is the most penguinistic person I know.
or - Penguinistic people are best suited for this wretched snowy weather!
(2) - like a Penguin book.
e.g. - This book would be better if it were more Penguinistic.
Hence: Penguinisticity (n) - (1) The quality of being penguin-like.
e.g. - The penguinisticity of Eskimos makes them ideally suited for wretched snowy weather.
(2) - The quality of being like a Penguin book.
e.g. - Modern Library books may have Penguinisticity in their footnotes, but their binding is wretched!
And hence: Penguintic (adj) - (1) Between penguinic and penguinistic, near-penguinic.
e.g. -
insptr_penguin is certainly penguintic, since she is the most penguinistic person I know!
(2) - same but applied to Penguin books.
e.g. - Except for their binding, Modern Library books are quite Penguintic.
And hence: Penguinticity (n) - (1) The quality of being between penguinic and penguinistic, etc.
e.g. - The penguinticity of the Batman villian the Penguin makes him a truly formidable foe!
(2) - same but applied to Penguin books.
e.g. - The Penguinticity of the notes in Modern Library books makes them useful references on any shelf, except that the books fall apart too easily.
::smiles:: Right. And my cruel slave-driver (that would be me) is forcing me to answer another JS question before bed tonight. Eheu! I've already answered two this morning before work! ::pout::
