Isn't that what they put in some allergy medications?
No, the key clue, as the others said, is the prefix "anti". A halian is someone who loves to celebrate. Therefore, an antihalian is someone who is opposed to festivities.

(ding) Those all look like fine definitions, but only one of them is correct? George, which is the definition of antihalian?

He says it's Kevin once again, is he right? (ding ding ding) Yes he is! (applause) And what will add to that $50... $100, plus the 50 totaling $150, bringing your grand total to... (ding) $200! (applause) Nels you have three potential connections! Would you like to choose one of those or an unconnected word?

NOVERCAL! It's a medical cream you apply directly to your crotch!
Actually, it means:
of, relating to, or characteristic of a stepmother

I'm gonna need some of that, but not where Shederick thinks it's going!
*laughger*
No. It's a spousal term, so to speak. It's what keeps marriages afloat. Novercal is excessive fondness of a wife for her husband.

I can't help but wonder why I was given this third possible answer to Novercal.
It does NOT mean additional calories in November due to a Thanksgiving feast...no no...
However the prefix "Nov" which is used in November represents the latter part of the year, and it's for this reason that NOVercal means...
"Old Age".

Post by koopakid17 on Jan 23, 2024 19:32:15 GMT -5
I guess you can say I'm "ultra" at this game!
If you're an ultracrepidarian, you engage in cut-and-thrust fighting with knives

Post by billmcdee on Jan 23, 2024 20:13:02 GMT -5
It's something we have all been guilty of at one time or another I suppose...
Going through the supermarket's express checkout with more than 10 items!
No, but it IS something many of us, myself included, HAVE been guilty of...
It means:
Giving opinions on matters beyond one's knowledge

Ultracrepidarian is what happens when you reboot transformers for the 20th time!
*laughter*
Actually, ultracrepidarian is:
One who finds valuable or agreeable things not sought for

NIDORSITY is the name of the home town of the inhabitants of Nidor....
No, that's Nidor CITY, not SITY.
Actually when you get an aftertaste when you belch, that is Nidorsity, and it is specific to eructation (belching) with the taste of undigested roast-meat.
No doubt the NBC Commissary inspired this word for today's show.
