and not necessarily the gnu

What's all that's new wordwise here on this first day of 2002? New rhymes with two, and that's kind of sweet to consider here this day.

new
inchoate (Lawrence's word that he wears as a jewel in his crown)
unfolding
bud
budding out
born
nativity
outset
opening
fresh
"Make it new" (Wasn't that Pound? It wasn't Cole Porter.)
first
one
fountainhead
inhilation

...there's so much that's new. What's new with you?

Best regards here new in 2002,
DubDub

"Here's to Inchoate friendships!" he said, as he drove away in his old BMW 2002. (Yes, there REALLY was such a BMW - back in the late sixties/early seventies. Here, of course, BMW stands for Brilliant Mind WordWind. And Jaguar stands for Jackie Always Goes Up And Restores (restores peace and good feelings on AWAD!) A couple of high-end friends!

I have looked at all the dictionaries I have access to and cannot find "inhilation"..
I can find many sites that use it, apparently as synonym for "inhalation". Is it just a very common mis-spelling?
