Most of those words are still in occasional use this side of the pond – I’ve heard or used most of them at some time or another during the past few years. The only one I've never heard used is Sisyphean. I haven’t heard truckle for fifty years (my mother used to use it, now and again) so that probably counts for Wayne Uni.
Oh, and I have always seen it as "transmogrify", too. (Meaning to be changed into a cat!)
I'm immortal until proven otherwise
