I love collecting fun and unusual words, and in the book "The Word Museum," by Jeffrey Karcirk, I found the greatest collection of forgotten words.

Take a look at:

Blutterbunged-- meaning: confounded, overcome by surprise. See gloppened. So, I looked up gloppened in the same book, and found: surprised. Don't you just love it?

Here's another great word:

Glunch-- meaning: to frown.

Or how about:

Maffle-- meaning: to stammer; to stutter.

And then, there's:

Snirp--- meaning: to shrink, to shrivel up.

Why have these words been lost? Wouldn't you love to have them in your repertoire, writers? I know I would!
