I made up the word 'confuzzled' from confused and the fizzle spell from Dragon Quest. I often feel like Shakespeare when I make up new words. I have a smart and quirky sense of humor, but sometimes I have to explain my jokes to other people.

I like alliteration, making up sentences with words all starting with the same letter.

Schizautis, schiauti, schaut - blends of "schizo" and "autism".

Oschun - shortening of Polish phrase "osoba chora umysłowo" ("mentally ill person" (shortening "meilpe"), mentally ill individual (shortening "meilin").

Nonkanformism - wordplay from non-kanneric (not like Kanner's syndrome) and nonconformist which I use for condition which I can name "pathological nonconformism syndrome" (I use this term to name my sort of Aspieness, which significantly differ from "typical" autism spectrum disorders and I think that my sister may have "lite" version of it).

^^^ I like that

I call Aspies either Aspergians or ASP-people [a play on the term ESP].

^^^ I like that too I like to tell people who ask me if I'm psychic, "yes, I have ASP."

Most of the words of my made up language Mythavean come from word playing and my witty sense of humor.
