Welcome to the:
Training Arena for Lexicographic Creativity (T.A.L.C.)
Alternative typographers are creative people and particularly adept at helping fill all those vocabulary gaps, where words really should exist but don't yet. The T.A.L.C. is here to help that.
All you do is take an existing word and add, subtract or substitute ONE LETTER ONLY to give a new word. And then define it.
For example
Interfarce - The process of getting the presentation you prepared on your Mac last night to run on the office PC.
Foreploy - Any lie or misrepresentation designed to convince someone to come to bed with you.
Hypewriter - A device for creating documents that are all spin and no substance.
Etc....
An Acknowledgement of Lexicographic Endowment (ALE) will be awarded for each worthwhile contribution to this project.
