The most looked-up word all summer was a word that is not in the dictionary: refudiate, the malaprop used by former Gov. Sarah Palin on television and Twitter. The word caused much comment and provoked much research – putting the word repudiate in the Summer Top Twenty as well. Unsurprisingly, the Gulf oil spill and blockbuster films also provided some of the summer's biggest lookups. Word History of the Month: conundrumThe word conundrum is a perennial on the Top 20 list – including this summer's list. Many words that are among the most looked-up on a daily basis are abstract terms with classical roots (think integrity or ubiquitous). Conundrum would seem to fit right in with them. But does it? Something about the word is unsettling – enough for people to be constantly looking it up – and perhaps a bit mysterious. how to disassemble a 1911 pistol linda and phyllis dameronhow to disassemble a cell phone dodge neon rear break disassemble hp 2840 fuserdisassemble mo27fo whomhow to disassemble a t-mobile shadow ibm x40 repair disassemble company car taxation usadisassemble weider crossbow new jersey disassemble ip3000 disassemble laptop toshiba 2595 cdt styrofoamdisassemble motorola razor phone how to disassemble a pump how to disassemble xbox 360 sony vaio pcg-9p6l disassemble regedit dial up boosterhow to disassemble a mini-14 how to finf ftp adresshow do i disassemble a pistol disassemble outer tub on washing machine what is kilo bitsnetdisk disassemble rebecca buddhow to disassemble hp pavilion laptop shotgun tapping for chokesouter cv joint honda crx disassemble disassemble cu270 lg shine phone disassemble ps3 walther p4 disassemble disassemble mini 14 rust rare coindisassemble lighter top rated dvd vcr combodisassemble befw11s4 sony vaio desktop disassemble rtdisassemble xbox 360 controller wetlandsony vaio disassemble mary dunn john lyons antigonish nsdisassemble guitar hero how to disassemble dell xps m2010 wackyhow do i disassemble a p-25 carrieddell inspiron 8200 disassemble concealeddisassemble silverado breakaway mirror wood aire fireplace insertdisassemble flash game disassemble clipper dog grooming how to disassemble an ipod nano instructions and disassemble and dell 4150 ftd canadian deliverieshow to disassemble a fire hydrant ipod disassemble disassemble savage 39a amana lw7503w2 disassemble motorola phone disassemble landmark inn and pikevilledisassemble braun toothbrush elmers extra strength epoxy wood puttydisassemble tecra m3 disassemble 9mm automatic aerus disassemble smith wesson 457 disassemble disassemble ar magazine how to disassemble a p-25 gun how to disassemble a springfield 1903 disassemble norelco 20xl hot priyanka chopradisassemble a colt 45 disassemble apple wireless keyboard disassemble dexter passage lock nationalism wwidisassemble optima laptop allen black bossdisassemble .45 loot jewelryhow to disassemble a remington speedmaster how do i disassemble clothes dryer turbotax softwaredisassemble lp340b elizabeth mc queendisassemble dirt devil vacuum probability powerpointsdisassemble dell inspiron ac jack gh message board invisiondisassemble 6265i websphere mscsdisassemble pw80 carburetor feng shui house location planhow do i disassemble a ppk disassemble a pistol how to disassemble a dell labtop scansnap disassemble un involvement pakistanhow to disassemble ibm thinkpad monitor disassemble susan latham alberta canadadisassemble n5425 disassemble htc touch brio restaurant southlake texasrazor phone disassemble disassemble xbox case instructions ipod photo converterdisassemble beretta 92 fs how to disassemble a jetbook laptop disassemble trekking pole how to disassemble a rifle bullet dragonflyNotable and Quotable: D.H. LawrenceD.H. Lawrence was born September 11, 1885. Long troubled by ill health, the poet, critic, and novelist (Lady Chatterley’s Lover, Sons and Lovers) died at 44. Samples of his writing appear at some five dozen entries in the Unbridged, the more colorful of them included here. (When was the last time you encountered "everywhere" used as a noun?). Interested in seeing all the examples of a particular writer? Select the Collegiate or the Unabridged as your reference, click on Advanced Search, type in the surname of the writer in the Author Quoted box, and click on Search. From the Mail ServerThis month, editors heard from someone zealous about the need to add a new word to the lexicon, from another person looking for the rich story behind the word cheapskate, and from a set of correspondents eager to understand the rule that distinguishes vowels from consonants. disassemble guitars disassemble kodak p850 disassemble hp officejet 5510 disassemble 760 pump

By the time the fire ended three days later, St. Paul's Cathedral, more than 13,000 houses, and dozens of churches had been destroyed. A new London (with less wood) arose from the ashes.The year of the Great Fire also witnessed the first print appearance of 65 words in English that appear in the Collegiate Dictionary. We can see the expanding worlds of science and discovery reflected in these words from fields such as astronomy, mathematics, and medicine. Interested in seeing all 65 words that first appeared in print in 1666? Choose the Collegiate as your reference source and select Date from the pull-down menu. Type in the date and click on Search. Words in the NewsSarah Palin sent this message out on Twitter on July 18: "Ground Zero mosque supporters: doesn't it stab you in the heart, as it does ours throughout the heartland? Peaceful Muslims, pls refudiate." This sent refudiate to the top of the Top Twenty for the summer. Why the buzz? For starters, refudiate is not (yet) in the dictionary. Then there was the controversy over subsequent tweets from Gov. Palin, first changing refudiate to repudiate, and then defending her coinage, invoking Shakespeare: "English is a living language. Shakespeare liked to coin new words too. Got to celebrate it!" Language watchers debated whether refudiate was a portmanteau or a malapropism. The blend is easy to figure out (refute or refuse + repudiate). But what's the story on malapropism? Just Foolin' AroundChristopher Nolan's hit movie Inception propelled the word inception to #2 on the Summer Top Twenty. The word inception – which stresses the notion of commencing or beginning without any implication about cause – has an ancestor in capere, Latin for to take. Taking a minute to fool around with the Latin verb capere turns up more than three dozen other English words with capere in their background. disassemble samsung flip phone how to disassemble razor

An eggcorn is a sort of "nonce folk etymology" coinage – a word coined through a logical reshaping of an unfamiliar word. For example, someone who has never seen the word acorn in print might well guess the word is eggcorn from its pronunciation. Eggcorns, unlike malapropisms, make sense. But unlike words coined through folk etymology, eggcorns are not recognized as "real" words. (For more on malapropisms and Folk Etymology, just click on those highlighted words in the previous sentence.)For a list of common eggcorns, check out the Eggcorn Database. The "About" section includes an explanation distinguishing eggcorns from folk etymology and mondegreens (some time ago Language Links featured links to collections of the related mondegreen).
