In reply to:I just learned a new word to describe people in a recent game of Balderdash (is that considered sacrilege on this website?):
fefnicute~ A two faced sneaky person.it's a sacrilege only to the extent that Balderdash is a [shudder] crass commercialization of the old dictionary game wherein all you needed was some scraps of paper and any old dictionary.
incidentally, the only place I've been able to find 'fefnicute' is in Mrs. Byrne's Dictionary of Unusual, Obscure, and Preposterous Words, which itself claims that all the words therein can be found in at least one *real dictionary. I hope somebody can tell me where that is....
Mrs. B. defines it as: 'hypocrite; sneak'
