i am very tired. anyway here are wierd some words:

nyet (nyet) noun

No.

[From Russian nyet (no).]

"There's another difference between Silicon Valley and the corporate hierarchy In most companies there's only one place to pitch a new idea - up the chain of command--and just one nyet can kill it. In the Valley there's no one person who can say no to a new idea. It's rare to find a successful startup whose initial business plan wasn't rejected by several venture capitalists before finding a sponsor." Gary Hamel, Reinvent Your Company, Fortune (New York), Jun 12, 2000.

THIS exmple does not even make sense.

logorrhea law-guh-REE-uh, noun:

Excessive talkativeness or wordiness.

By his own measure, he is a man of many contradictions, beginning with the fact that he is famous as a listener but suffers from "a touch of logorrhea." He is so [1]voluble that one wonders how his subjects get a word in edgewise. --Mel Gussow, "Listener, Talker, Now Literary Lion: It's Official." [2]New York Times, June 17, 1997

It's also not good if your date has logorrhea. --Monte Williams, "8 Minutes in the Life of a Jewish Single: Not Attracted? Next!" [3]New York Times, March 5, 2000

Mr. King, who possesses an enviable superabundance of imagination, suffers from a less enviable logorrhea. --Michele Slung, "Scare Tactics." [4]New York Times, May 10, 1981

Logorrhea is derived from Greek logos, "word" + rhein, "to flow."

Now these are good examples, however they left our a certain choir director i know who is a prime example of this word.
