bafflegab (W3)

...
"gobbledygook". Meaningless words, blithering blather, governmental jargon, originally and especially. Invention of the word usually is credited to Representative Maury Maverick (Democrat, Texas), grandson of the MAVERICK, whose duties as chairman of the Smaller War Plants Corp. during the Second World War required him to attend committee meetings at which BUREAUCRATS ran on about "maladjustments co-extensive with problem areas," "alternative but nevertheless meaningful minimae," and so on. This inspired him to produce a formal order on March 30, 1944, banning "gobbledygook language": "Be short and say what you're talking about. . . . No more patterns, effectuating, dynamics. Anyone using the words activation or implementation will be shot. " The word obviously filled a need, since it caught on immediately. "People ask me where I got gobbledygook," the congressman explained. "I do not know. It must have come in a vision. Perhaps I was thinking of the old bearded turkey gobbler back in Texas who was always "gobbledy-gobbling" and strutting with ludicrous pomposity. At the end of this "gobble" there was a sort of gook" {New York Times Magazine, 5/21/44). See also "TURKEY".

Synonyms of "gobbledygook" include "bafflegab", "federalese", "officialese", "Pentagonese", and "Washington Cboctaw". "Officialese" {OED, 1884) is the oldest of these, but "bafflegab" probably has the widest currency. It is a product of the early 1950s: "Milton Smith, the assistant general counsel of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, has coined a new word, "bafflegab", designed solely for Washington bureaucrats, or for UN bureaucrats, for that matter" (San Francisco Call-Bulletin, 3/4/52). See also "BUNK" and "MALARKEY".

Limericks on "bafflegab"

...
"bafflegab", n. "Bafflegab" is unclear, official jargon. The first citation in the OED credits Milton A. Smith of the U. S. Chamber of Commerce with coining the word. Smith defined it as, “Multiloquence characterised by a consummate interfusion of circumlocution [...] and other familiar manifestations of abstruse expatiation commonly utilised for promulgations implementing procrustean determinations by governmental bodies.” (The citation is from the British Daily Telegraph, in case you’re wondering why an American is using British spelling.)
...

"Bafflegab" is incomprehensible or pretentious verbiage. It hit the newspapers and public notice on 19 January 1952, the day after a plaque was presented to its inventor to mark his creation of this invaluable word. He was Milton A Smith, assistant general counsel for the US Chamber of Commerce. It was presented by Michael V DiSalle, the head of the Office of Price Stabilization, who rejoiced in the title of Price Stabilizer. (Where are people like this when you need them?)

Milton Smith coined the word in a piece he wrote for the Chamber’s weekly publication, Washington Report, which criticised the OPS for the bureaucratic language it used in one of its price orders. This was picked up by the Bellingham Herald in Washington State, which wrote an editorial about it, saying “"Gobbledegook" is mouth-filling, but it lacks the punch of "bafflegab". The inventor of that one deserves an award.” The newspaper made sure he got one by paying for the plaque to be made and organising its presentation.

The inventor said he had spent a maddening day trying to explain the OPS order to a colleague and decided a special word was needed to describe its special blend of “incomprehensibility, ambiguity, verbosity and complexity”. He tried "legalfusion", "legalprate", "gabalia", and "burobabble" before settling on "bafflegab". There’s nothing mysterious about the make-up of the word, and that’s part of its appeal. But it’s the stress on those plosive consonants that really makes it fly. It might well have succeeded even without the publicity associated with the award.

At the presentation, Milton Smith was asked to briefly define his word. It was, he said succinctly, “multiloquence characterized by consummate interfusion of circumlocution or periphrasis, inscrutability, and other familiar manifestations of abstruse expatiation commonly utilized for promulgations implementing Procrustean determinations by governmental bodies.” Just so.

...
By its specialist nature, this isn't a book for everyone, but if you want to make sense of the bafflegab coming out of Washington, you'll find what you need here.

...
Historically, "dude" originally meant "old rags" -- a "dudesman" was a "scarecrow" (= "Vogelscheuche"). In the late 1800s, a "dude" was akin to a "dandy," a meticulously (sorgfältig) dressed man, especially out West. It became "cool" in the 1930s and 1940s, according to Kiesling. "Dude" began its rise in the teenage lexicon with the 1981 movie "Fast Times at Ridgemont High."

Hipster-Glossary

Definition of a Hipster
Hipster - One who possesses tastes, social attitudes, and opinions deemed cool by the cool. (Note: it is no longer recommended that one use the term "cool"; a Hipster would instead say "deck.") The Hipster walks among the masses in daily life but is not a part of them and shuns or reduces to kitsch anything held dear by the mainstream. A Hipster ideally possesses no more than 2% body fat.

Who Says Tubular Anymore?

Like most social groups, Hipsters have their own way of communicating. They converse using special terms and lingo to show they are in the know. Being up on the latest slang is essential to being a Hipster.

Though it may be humorous to tell someone that his or her Pumas are "tubular," utilizing a dated term such as this can be a serious faux pas if not used ironically. Retro terms such as "grody," "bofu," "fresh," and "wicked" all work well when with a tongue-in-cheek, but such words should be used sparingly.
We recommend you take a quick peek at our glossary of terms, to educate yourself on the lingo. With a little practice, we will help you turn an awkward sentence like, "I'm gonna look bitchin' in my groovy jacket," into the much hipper "I'll polish in my deck flogger."

Looking for a few good words

• Neologisms are invented words. We are particularly interested in invented words which represent concepts or objects that didn't previously exist.
• This is a chance for artists to alter the future history of culture by "breaking the code" & making a parallel history.
• Also: What is the longest invented word? The most difficult pronunciation? The word with the most definitions? Etcetra...
• The widest range of subject matter, spellings, meaning & pronunciation is sought. We especially welcome prolific word inventors to submit whole vocabularies. Obscure & archaic words are accepted as long as they aren't currently common.
• Include correct spelling, phonetic pronunciation, definition, origin, creator, date & even circumstances of the creation, if applicable.
• Non-English word-makers should provide English translation of material, where possible.

Word of the Week: "Pre-cation"

"Pre-cation": An employer-mandated vacation taken before the start of a new job. Sometimes spelled "precation".

The coinage of "pre-cation" has been attributed to Tom Freedman, co-founder and CEO of 42floors, a San Francisco-based commercial real-estate search engine. In a September 30, 2014, article in Slate, Will Oremus quoted Freedman, who recalled courting a new hire:
...
"Pre-cation" follows a "-cation" portmanteau trend that began picking up steam about seven years ago. See "staycation", "selfcation", "daycation" and "naycation".

In "pre-cation", there’s a slight emphasis on "pre". A different "precation", dating from the mid-16th century, has a shorter vowel in the first syllable and places the stress on the second syllable. The word means "prayer" (from Latin "precari"; compare "imprecation", a curse; and "deprecation", an expression of disapproval).

To Google, and Other Internet Neologisms

Google’s lawyers don’t like it, but the search engine’s name has become a generonym, a brand name that people use as a generic word for searching. The word "Google" itself is a neologism, a variation on the huge number, a "googol".

Neologisms are newly invented words, or existing words that are combined to create a word with a new meaning. The rise of the Internet has spawned lots of neologisms that have made their way into common usage.

Word Fugitives by Barbara Wallraff

...
A "word fugitive" ("Wort Flüchtling") is a wanted word or expression that someone has been unable to call to mind. Quite probably no exactly apt term exists - but maybe one should. Those familiar with The Meaning of "Liff" (1983), by Douglas Adams and John Lloyd, or "Sniglets" (1984), by Rich Hall and Friends, may find it helpful to think of word fugitives as empty mental spaces waiting to be filled by neologisms like the ones that appeared in those books. Readers familiar with Atlantic Unbound may already be acquainted with the word-fugitives idea, which made its debut online. Now readers are invited to submit for this page both word fugitives they seek and neologisms they coin to meet the needs of their word-wanting fellows.

The Word Lover's Guide to Modern Culture

This book is a series of cultural snapshots, with the lens focused on new words and phrases that tell us something about our world. These snapshots cover various slices of modern life, including relationships, business, technology, war, aging, multiculturalism, and even fast food. I define each word, tell you when it first appeared in print, provide a citation from the media that shows how the word is used, and give you some cultural background - stats, stories, trends, and tidbits - that put the word into context. Taken together, I hope these snapshots form a larger picture of our modern culture. Have you ever seen one of those images that, when examined closely, turns out to be made up of thousands of smaller pictures? It's called a mosaic, and that's the metaphor that underlies this book. It's a mosaic of new words.

It covers over 1,000 words and phrases, from accelerated-care nursing to zoomers.
Hundreds of those words and phrases are NOT on the WordSpy.com Web site, so there's plenty of new material.
It's 420 pages long, with 22 chapters and an appendix (see the Table of Contents), all for a mere U.S.$15.95 or CDN$23.95.

Garner, Bryan
Garner's Modern American Usage

Third Edition: Now in a completely revised Third Edition — The indispensable guide to using the most influential language in the world

Since first appearing in 1998, "Garners Modern American Usage" has established itself as the preeminent guide to the effective use of the English language. Brimming with witty, erudite essays on troublesome words and phrases, "GMAU" authoritatively shows how to avoid the countless pitfalls that await unwary writers and speakers whether the issues relate to grammar, punctuation, word choice, or pronunciation.

An exciting new feature of this third edition is Garners Language-Change Index, which registers where each disputed usage in modern English falls on a five-stage continuum from nonacceptability (to the language community as a whole) to acceptability, giving the book a consistent standard throughout. "GMAU" is the first usage guide ever to incorporate such a language-change index. The judgments are based both on Garners own original research in linguistic corpora and on his analysis of hundreds of earlier studies. Another first in this edition is the panel of critical readers: 120-plus commentators who have helped Garner reassess and update the text, so that every page has been improved.

Bryan A. Garner is a writer, grammarian, lexicographer, teacher, and lawyer. He has written professionally about English usage for more than 28 years, and his work has achieved widespread renown. David Foster Wallace proclaimed that Bryan Garner is a genius and William Safire called the book excellent. In fact, due to the strength of his work on GMAU, Garner was the grammarian asked to write the grammar-and-usage chapter for the venerable Chicago Manual of Style. His advice on language matters is second to none.

Bryan A. Garner wears many hats: he is a lawyer, a prolific lecturer, and an equally prolific author. Since 1995, he has been editor-in-chief of Black's Law Dictionary. He is also the author of "Garner's Modern American Usage", a widely respected guide to contemporary usage that has just been published in its third edition.
...

Garner's Modern American Usage, edited by Bryan Garner, is a usage guide for contemporary American English first published in 2009. It covers issues of usage, pronunciation, and style, from distinctions among commonly confused words and phrases and notes on how to prevent verbosity and obscurity. In addition, it contains essays about the English language.
