For Fun: Lets try and get a word or 2 in the dictionary

Phtha · 04-17-2009, 06:05 AM

Have you noticed that as our consciousness shifts more towards the higher planes that certain concepts seem to lack a single word in English that we can apply to it? In some cases, or probably even all cases, other languages will have words for these higher concepts that English is lacking. With the knowledge and creativity of those present at these forums, and the many word wizards, I'm sure we can come up with a word for some of these higher concepts that would make Webster jealous.

One such concept would be something that all of us who post here do to a certain extent, and that is teach and learn at the same time. It's a pretty common thing to see of course, the teach/learn relationship, in all facets of life. I think it deserves its own word because it is an experience in itself created by blending both of the experiences of teaching and learning together, and the feeling that this combination creates becomes heightened when conscious of it. When I try and think of it as teach/learn my mind seems to quickly jump from one experience to the other without being able to stay centered on the combined experience.

So just for fun lets try and get some words in the dictionary. Some words have already been added to dictionaries that we're created on the internet as a matter of fact. And it will be a good test of combined intention, maybe it will make it, maybe not, maybe it will take 5 years or more, or maybe in 5 years there will be no dictionaries

. And if worse comes to worse we can always cheat and hire some famous writer to use the word in one of his books.

So in summery one concept that would be nice to have a single word is the teach/learn experience. Feel free to add any other concepts that lack words in English. I've thought of a few more I'll add at a later time possibly.

Now, off to study the Great Works alphabet charts.

Edit - Oops I meant to place this in the off topics forum.

OK... 'Intudenant;' the striving to become; an angst in effort to teach/learn ones' self through others (even with improper english).

Intudenant, haha great , love it! It works too I've tried it.

'Int' invokes instructor, intelligence, interplay, intake... ect
'tudenant' -invokes student, prudent, rudimentary dear Watson ect..

It's got my vote. I've been brainstorming ways we can get these words out to the mass consciousness, using the mmm..www of course. I'll get my ideas up at a later time.
