Okay, how about this? That we either provide a definition or a sentence that clearly defines the word.
I love words.
Here's another one we don't hear often enough.
scrofulous - morally degraded.

Oh, that reminds me of the word 'murmur'. One of my favourites because it sounds exactly like its meaning.

Would it be possible to combine this on one huge, surprisingly singular sentence? As an example, please consider this ineffable dithyrambic:
The scrofulous cantankerous dipsomaniac was a scrofulous cretinous cockalorum who floccinaucinihilipilificated the crepuscular linebackers, and then, in frolicksomeness, defenestrated the plethora of preponing rapscallions, which, after a brief woggle, shattered with the noise of an unonomatapaeic petard, in a manner of lugubrious drollery, and had to vivify a mellifluous gelatinous indeterminate slobberchops which suffered only from a obfuscated superfluous phantasm of pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis, being as there was a syzygy.

Er, how about:
The scrofulous cantankerous dipsomaniac was a scrofulous cretinous cockalorum who floccinaucinihilipilificated the crepuscular linebackers, and then, in frolicksomeness, defenestrated the vasty plethora of preponing rapscallions, which, after a brief woggle, shattered with the noise of an unonomatapaeic petard, in a manner of lugubrious drollery, and had to vivify a mellifluous gelatinous indeterminate slobberchops which suffered only from a obfuscated superfluous phantasm of pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis, being as there was a syzygy.
And it _still_ makes sense!
