Skivolvunge (The stuff on this webpage was mentioned on page 121 in my book.)

In Cheesie Mack Is Not a Genius or Anything, I described our fifth-grade graduation party (which was entirely fun, except for Goon’s massive interference…). One of the things I wrote was:

I took a huge running start, then scoogled (this is my made-up word . . . it is a combination of scoot and wiggle) on the Slip ’N Slide and skivolvunged butt-first into the dirt, which was actually mud.

And then I asked:

Can you guess what “skivolvunged” is a three-way combo of?

Here’s the answer:

SKId + reVOLVe + lUNGED

If you have a different answer, I would love to know it. Please comment below.


Does the small “l” in “lunged” look like a number 1 to you? It does on my computer.

IMO, that is a big mistake in typography (my mom says that’s what the look of letters and numbers on a page or screen is called). I’m going to type them together so you can see how similar they are:

l1

Weird, huh?

    1. I don’t understand. I know that RACECAR is a palindrome, but what does your comment mean?

    1. In case you don’t know them.. One Direction is a British boy band that is really popular right now and it their last names all put together!! Harry STYles, Liam PAYne, Zayn MaLIK, Niall HORan, and Louis TomlinSON…

  1. i really thought it was the combo of skid+volcano+lungeiness=skivolvunged

  2. I think it could be: skid+vulge+lunged.

    P.S. Note that I made up the word vulged and that I only changed the middle word.

    1. Thanks, Sol (which an amazing name because it is the name of the biggest thing in our solar system, the sun!)

    1. try to find the L and I (in paragraphe they are not capatalized. look for it i dare you

    2. It’s weird, but in the font on my computer it is VERY EASY to see the difference.

  4. wow the L and the 1 on your computer look SO alike thats really weird!! here it is on my computer 1l not as cole as yours though

    1. I never thought of plUNGED. I think it’s just as good as lUNGED> I give you an A+ on this one!

  5. I’m always making up words like, rop (combination of running and hopping.)Also on my computer the lower case i looks like a number 1 see 1 i.Goodbyzo(wich is also a word I made up it is NOT a combination.)
    your crazy friend,Ashley

    1. It is a weird looking word, isn’t it.

      It means to slide, typically sideways or at an angle, on slippery ground or from stopping or turning too quickly

    1. That’s weirdly cool. A skink is like a lizard, so that means I’d have to move in a wiggly way.

    1. That’s pretty funny. If that’s true, it would mean to slide, roll or skid, and lunge.
