A Word: honeyfuggle – to deceive or swindle, especially flattery.
I subscribe to A Word A Day and receive interesting and often unusual words in my inbox.
This is a funny one and could be useful in a novel.
“Don’t try to honeyfuggle me!”
Just pronouncing it, makes me laugh.(fuggle almost rhymes with cuddle)

Ha! Great word. 🙂 I like confuzzed. While it isn’t a real word, it means confused, but I like to think of it as confused to distraction. ;o)

I like absquatulate. It means to take your leave. Also I like confluzzling, but that’s not a real word. I made it up.

Discombobulated. It’s a whole nother level past confusion. It’s being confused and upset and frustrated, all at the same time.
My Mom used it a lot and I giggle every time I hear it – which is pretty rare. I didn’t know it was a real word for years. Sure enough, it’s right there in the dictionary!

Sherry,
Funny that we’re getting several responses on words linked to confusion. Wonder what that says about the writing life? : )
