blue Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Just because it's too fun not to share, I found this. Graeme's tale of his sons, the "winnest" made me think of this song. -- And "winnest" is a fine word. It's even logical, in a fun sort of way. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Artist: Julie Andrews Song: Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Discs: { Soundtrack: Mary Poppins; } Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Even though the sound of it Is something quite atrocious If you say it loud enough You'll always sound precocious Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay Because I was afraid to speak When I was just a lad My father gave me nose a tweak And told me I was bad But then one day I learned a word That saved me aching nose The biggest word I ever heard And this is how it goes: Oh, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Even though the sound of it Is something quite atrocious If you say it loud enough You'll always sound precocious Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay So when the cat has got your tongue There's no need for dismay Just summon up this word And then you've got a lot to say But better use it carefully Or it may change your life One night I said it to me girl And now me girl's my wife! She's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Link to comment
Graeme Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Just as a partial explanation, Blue questioned whether the word "winnest" was a typo or not. I explained to him that it's the word used commonly by my two sons, and has entered the family vocabulary as a consequence (along with "huggles"). Link to comment
