Many of us have had a laugh at our President with some of the words that he has come up with. David Letterman, Saturday night Live and Jay Leno have all had a great time with it. In his press conference the other day, President Bush was even laughing at himself for a word that he had made up.

I still get flack from saying the word Scochy. I used it in reference to people scooting together in a service to make room for other people. I have been told it is not a real word. Last night I was switching the word, anonymous with the word unanimous. Sometimes words are very confusing for me. But my question is, how do real words come into being? Is there a process? Or can I just continue saying it and it stick? If you are really cool, is that a way for you to get made up words to become real words?

Do any of you use words that you have made up and if so, what are they?
