enschizophreniation and other coined words

Tokyo, 2008.07.23

Today I coined the word enschizophreniation in an email advisory 'round the office. I meant it as in "to divide a single system into parts that behave differently and do not know of each other". I realize that split-personality disorder is not the same thing as schizophrenia, but couldn't think of a better word to enverbinate so.

I know, not as good as George W Bush's "misunderstanding" or "Hispanically", but you know a lot of good words are already taken and it's getting harder to coin words.

Though in my novel I use two words that I think I made up. One is dinwais, the other fartwander. The former is an acronym for "does not work as it should" while the latter is a short walk you take (e.g. away from the presence of other people) for the purpose of passing gas.

In one of history's more absurd acts of totalitarianism, China has banned Buddhist monks in Tibet from reincarnation without government permission.
