Everything needs a name and today's post will supply you with some delightfully odd words to increase your word power. The first word really rolls off the tongue then ricochets around the brain, bumfuzzle, originated in the southern US and was probably a hybrid of bamboozle and fuddle, it means a state of confusion. Next up we have bibble which sounds like another pronunciation of bible but alas it actually means to eat or drink noisily...think straw slurping. Last word for the day, coming from Old English is unwonted meaning uncommon or unusual. Your assignment, should you accept it, is to work these three words into a conversation by the end of the week! Good luck.
