Made up word for amazing

How’s your vocabulary? While it might already be robust, breaking out the big words will only take you so far these days. It seems that now more than ever, we’re hearing new words and hybrid terms people have created — especially from our kids. And since, as parents, our perpetual mission is figuring out how to communicate with our offspring, having a few made-up words in your back pocket may prove pretty darn useful. Yep, we’ve reached the season of life where we have to ask, “Isn’t that what the kids are saying these days?” But even if you don’t have a tween or teen obsessed with TikTok terminology, made-up words can be a super fun topic to discuss around the dinner table with younger kids.

So, with that in mind, keep reading for a whole bunch of made-up words you can use to strike up a conversation with your family. Some of these terms people use in everyday life, but many of them might be entirely new to you. Go ahead and try them out! After, if you want to pad your ever-expanding vocabulary even more — and, by proxy, your kids’ — carve out a few minutes to learn some cool travel words, descriptive nature words, or, for the foodie families out there, interesting words to describe food.

Common and Famous Made-Up Words

You’ve probably heard these words before and might not realize that they are totally made up. And some of them were so popular when they came out that they will probably never leave our minds again.

1. Dinglehopper

The dinglehopper was a fork from a sunken ship that Disney’s Ariel and Flounder explored in The Little Mermaid. She didn’t know the term fork, so her prized possession was called a dinglehopper. You can use it today for anything you don’t know the name of.

Example: “Suzie, can you come by and give me a hand. I don’t have a clue how to get this motor going. I fiddled with the dinglehopper and everything!”

2. Californication

After writing the hit song and album with the same name, LA-based band Red Hot Chili Peppers made the word Californication trendy. But a fun fact is they didn’t actually invent that word. A combination of California and fornication, the word appeared on a 1966 cover of Time magazine describing “the haphazard, mindless development that has already gobbled up most of Southern California.”

Example: “I’m watching so much TMZ lately. I’m getting sucked in by Californication.”

3. Irregardless

Those who use this word often mean to say “regardless.” Regardless is already a negative, and adding “ir” makes it a meaningless double negative. Also, there’s a general preconception that people who use the word irregardless are trying to sound more intelligent.

Example: “Irregardless of your opinion, the fact is that you’re wrong.”

4. Misunderestimate

George W. Bush accidentally termed this word. It essentially means to underestimate by mistake. While you can underestimate and misestimate, misunderestimate is not a “real” word, despite its usage.

Example: “Don’t misunderestimate me!”

5. Nom

A word made famous by the legendary Cookie Monster, noms as a noun means “food.” It’s derived from nomnom, which references pleasurable eating noises we make while eating something tasty (like cookies!). Nom can also be used as a verb.

Example: “Candy! Nom nom nom!” or, in verb form, “I nommed the whole pizza!”

6. Snozzwangers

This word comes from the creative mind of Roald Dahl. They are predatory animals that live in Oompah Loompa Land. They have three feet and are known to eat Oompah Loompas.

Example: “When the Snozzwangers became hungry, they hunted for Oompah Loompas.”

7. Snark

To criticize indirectly and sarcastically.

Example: After the boy lost the game, he said snarky remarks to the other children.

Phony Phrases That Sound Cool

These made-up words sound so cool you’ll want to start using them right away.

1. A Crapella

No matter how good you think you sound when you’re rocking out with your headphones on, let’s be real — it isn’t always pretty. A crapella describes that headphone-listening-type-of-singing.

Example: “What’d you say? I couldn’t hear you over my own a crapella.”

2. Air Stair

Have you ever walked down a flight of stairs and suddenly stepped down heavily on a step that isn’t there? You just found an air stair.

Example: “I hit the air stair so hard I thought I broke my foot.”

3. Blamestorming

You know when you catch your kids in a foiled attempt to do so, and the litany of finger-pointing explanations begin? Like, “This wouldn’t have happened if [insert sibling’s name] had just done what they were supposed to do!” That’s blamestorming.

Example: “They were too busy blamestorming to come up with a decent solution.”

4. Carcolepsy

As a parent, you might not know this term — but you’ve likely taken advantage of the phenomenon. It describes someone’s propensity to pass out as soon as the car starts moving. (Remember all those rides around the neighborhood when your kid was little because they’d only sleep in their car seat?)

Example: “Baby needs a nap, so I’m gonna drive around the block a few times and let carcolepsy do the heavy lifting.”

5. Nerdjacking

Sometimes a person takes over a conversation by introducing an obscure topic (or bringing up a common one) in excessive and often unnecessary detail. This is nerdjacking.

Example: “When we talked about the cast of the new Spider-Man movie, Sean started nerdjacking the conversation with facts from the comic book.”

6. Stallmate

Picture this. You and another person are in two toilet stalls next to each other. You’re both waiting for the other to make the first move/splash. You’re stuck in a stalemate.

Example: “We sat in complete silence for several minutes before my neighbor got so frustrated, she decided to end the stallmate by leaving the bathroom.”

7. Suckrifice

This noun means to do what you know is necessary, even though you really, truly don’t want to do it. So, you know, half of parenting. Welcome to the suck!

Example: “I’ve got to bake three dozen cupcakes for my daughter’s swim meet fundraiser. What a suckrifice.”

8. Caroma

This word is a combination of two words: car and aroma. It’s used to describe the smell of a car.

Example: “When I got into my sister’s car, it had a Caroma of goldfish crackers, baby wipes, and diaper powder.”

9. Cellfish

This is used to describe someone who pays more attention to their phone than the world around them.

Example: “My teenage daughter had turned into a complete cellfish. Her phone was practically glued to her hand.”

10. Chairdrobe

This is a chair that you put all your clothes on. It’s usually that pile of clothes in the corner of your room.

Example: “When I woke up in the middle of the night, I thought my chairdrobe was a person, which is definitely a sign to hang up my clothes.”

Phony Phrases That Sound Smart

Despite being totally made-up words, these sound like they could come out of the mouth of the smartest person in the room.

1. Destinesia

You suffer from destinesia when you forget where you’re going or the purpose of the journey once you get there.

Example: “Damn, I got destinesia. I completely forgot why I went down to the basement.”

2. Epiphinot

Sometimes we have an epiphany that changes the entire course of our lives for the better. And sometimes, we have one that turns out to be pointless, dumb, or incorrect. This is an epiphinot.

Example: “On Friday, I had an amazing idea to make big money that turned out to be an epiphinot when I crunched the numbers on Monday.”

3. Internest

You know when your teen curls up on the couch or in their bed, cocooning in a pile of blankets while they scroll TikTok for hours on end? That blanket cocoon is their internest. Get it? Internet + nest.

Example: “Willow, crawl out of your internest — it’s time for dinner!”

4. Preteentious

This one hits differently once your kid enters the double-digit era. What’s it mean? Well, it’s the level of histrionics only achievable by tweens.

Example: “My preteentious 12-year-old just rolled their eyes and said I ruined their life because I bought cinnamon Life cereal instead of regular.”

5. Ringxiety

Have you ever answered your phone only to realize it was a bird chirping outside or sound from the TV? Ringxiety is when we confuse the sound of a cell phone ringing with a sound similar to it. The term can also be used when you hear no sound at all but still imagine the sensation of your phone vibrating even when it doesn’t.

Example: “I keep hearing my phone vibrate in my purse even though my phone is off. Total ringxiety.”

6. Textpectation

Whereas ringxiety describes the feeling of imagining your phone is ringing or vibrating when it isn’t, textpectation describes another form of digital nervousness: the anticipation you feel waiting for a response to a text you’ve sent.

Example: “I texted Maria to ask if she wanted to switch carpool days, and she hasn’t responded. The textpectation is killing me!”

Gen Z Words

Wondering what the kids are talking about on TikTok? Here are some of the most common terms.

1. Cheugy

Cheugy is an adjective that describes millennials who try too hard to be in Style or trendy.

Example: “My mom tried doing a TikTok dance yesterday. She’s so cheugy.”

2. Ded/💀

As a surprise to many, ded means “lol” as if something was so funny it killed you.

Example: “That girl’s joke had me ded!”

3. Drip

For those of us still holding onto swag, this is essentially the same idea — it’s when someone has a cool, sexy sense of style.

Example: “Donald Glover has some serious drip.”

4. IYKYK

This acronym stands for “If you know, you know.” Use IYKYK to describe an inside joke or something that wouldn’t make sense to most people.

Example: “Last night was insane! #iykyk”

5. No Cap/Capping

In this context, cap means “lie.” When someone says “no cap,” it means they aren’t lying.

Example: “Coach said I’m starting in the game tomorrow, no cap.”

6. Basic

This isn’t a nice word to call your friends, but you can use it to describe someone or something unoriginal or mainstream.

Example: “I didn’t know what to wear to the party, so I got something vintage to avoid being basic.”

7. Bet

This is a short and super cool way of saying you agree.

Example: “Can you meet me at the house tomorrow?” “Bet.”

Amazing is the present participle of the verb “to amaze.” It can function as an adjective to describe something you find fascinating. Yet, it gets used too often in English grammar. You might find our guide on reticent vs. reluctant helpful.

As you work on making your writing more engaging and your Scrabble word list a bit longer, consider these synonyms for amazing.

1. Awe-inspiring

Something that inspires awe is certainly amazing. This word applies well for situations and items that make you stop in your tracks and take another look. Here’s an example sentence:

• The Grand Canyon is an awe-inspiring sight.

2. Confounding

Amazing can have a more negative connotation, and thus the thesaurus lists confounding as one of its related words. Something that is confounding is baffling or frustrating, and this can amaze the viewer because of just how frustrating it is. Here is an example sentence:

• Lauren found her brother’s inability to see reason to be confounding. 

3. Dazing

Dazing can mean stupefying or dazzling, so it has both a positive and negative connotation. Some example sentences include:

• The dazing bright light made it hard to see the road.

4. Dumbfounding

If something is so amazing that you find yourself speechless, you could call it dumbfounding. The dictionary definition of dumbfounding is “confounding briefly and with astonishment.” Here’s an example:

• The dumbfounding announcement meant several employees would lose their jobs.

5. Enthralling

Amazing things can capture all of your attention, and in these instances, the word enthralling is a more meaningful substitution. When something enthralls you, it is so mesmerizing that you can’t pay attention to anything else like this sentence implies:

• The enthralling story kept my attention so much that I read the entire book in two days.

6. Eye-opening

This synonym for amazing implies that the event or item is so exciting, it opens the person’s eyes to a new idea or thought. Eye-popping is a related word with similar meaning. Here’s an example:

• The eye-opening speech by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. changed the Civil Rights Movement’s momentum for the better.

7. Flabbergasting

Flabbergasting experiences overwhelm a person with surprise, shock, or wonder. This word often gets used when something unexpected takes place, like this example:

• The surprise party was flabbergasting to the guest of honor.

8. Incredible

Incredible refers to something so amazing it is hard to understand or believe. This example sentence uses the word well:

• The incredible claims about the new drug made people skeptical about trying it. 

9. Jaw-dropping

Something that is so impressive you have to stand with your mouth wide-open is called jaw-dropping. This replacement for amazing gives more emphasis and meaning to the sentence, as this example shows:

• The wedding’s reception was a jaw-dropping experience.

10. Mind-blowing

A mind-blowing or mind-boggling experience is one that is literally impossible to wrap one’s mind around. However, this word has more power than amazing because of its intensity, as this example shows:

• The new scientific discovery had a mind-blowing effect on the way cancer treatment worked.

11. Riveting

Riveting is similar to enthralling. When something is riveting, it’s impossible to ignore. This example shows it used in a sentence: 

• The basketball game was riveting as the underdogs came from behind to win at the last second.

12. Stupefying

When something is stupefying, it is astonishing or astounding. This synonym for amazing indicates something hard to believe, as in this example:

• The ease at which he scaled the wall during the tournament was stupefying.

13. Stupendous

Something that is stupendous causes astonishment or wonder. This word can also mean of a large size or greatness, like this example:

• He made a stupendous mistake when he called the wrong girl to ask for a date.

14. Mind-bending

This synonym for amazing word will appeal to Matrix and science fiction fans. When a character comes across a concept that changes their view of the world, it can also change how they think!

• Neo took the red pill and awoke into the real world. What happened next was a mind-bending experience.
