Words you just made up
"Bugger" is Old English and therefore has been around in one form or another for 500 or so years, if not more.

Skryped is a word you made up. It has been around for mere minutes. A Google search for it reveals that it is only mentioned on MySpace and nowhere else, and then as a typo for Skyped.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. Wikipedia is not for things made up one day and is specifically not a dictionary.

If you'd like to contribute to a wiki-based dictionary, Wiktionary is the site for you. But they will also not be interested in a word you just made up and cannot prove exists.

There's much more you can do at Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, however. See the message below. ➨  ЯEDVERS  18:46, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
