Enlighten me on the meanings of your family words.
My family uses words like-
1. Larapen
2. Corker

4. Besso
5. Noggin
6. Snotlocker
7. Eyewinker
8. Fixin' to go
9. 'preciate it
10.Sally Frances
9.
I've heard #10 mispronounced so long that when I read it I couldn't figure out what was wrong with it!
You must be dilusive if you think after all that dieting you still have flabbage. You need to stop looking out the vin-door and run your bonga - your floors a mess. Oh, next time Mac borrows my car, if his friends are all oogidy, they can ride in the backity back.
I'll leave #7, 8,9,for someone else to put into a sentence!

definitions: hoobeedoobee = anything we forget what to call or don't know what to call.
pooty = all things relating to Nathan's behind
hoochie = all things relating to my youngest daughter.
fixin = getting ready
JPN = just plain nuts
Pat = I have become the queen of jibberish language having Nathan around ;)
Huckle Buckle = when you find something that has been lost for a very long time. One may "call a huckle buckle" if one is desperate to find an object, but it must be very, very serious. Often, a price is put on a particular huckle buckle to encourage others to find it. When this happens, the finder usually screams "huckle buckle!" to ensure that they will be the sole recipiant of the reward. Derived from the children's game Huckle Buckle Bean Stalk, but now far removed.
Bareman's = refers to any grocery store in closest proximity to your current location. Ex: "I'm going to Bareman's to pick up some milk. Need anything?" This person may be headed to Farmer Jack, Kroger, Meijer, or the like, depending on where they speaker currently resides. Derived from the fact that an actual Bareman's dairy store was located at the end of our block in Redford in the 1960's, and it is way, way too much trouble to call a store its actual name.
