arbell9 21 Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Surely for mensa they would have to be real words but if you want any word then from defecate you get refecate which is where just having finished a crap a minute later you have to back and crap again an intelligent version might be defecaste, the Italian for second-person plural past historic of defecare, or their verb to poop Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rogerch 63 Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 As per the Mensa rules - add, subtract or change one letter in a word and supply a new meaning. I'll kick it off with: Deafecation - the act of not listening to someone who constantly spouts crap I'm with Alex, I think you guys have this wrong. The idea is to start with a real word right out of the Oxford Dictionary, add or subtract a letter to change into another word also to be found in the Oxford Dictionary, but with a different meaning.
