This Week's Topic: TWO WEEK CHALLENGE BREAK No new topic until February 13, 2025 {please don’t submit entries}
We're going back to single word wordplay topics. Blended words: We're all familiar with these words, but did you know they had a name? They are called Portmanteau. They are a word or part of a word made by combining the spellings and meanings of two or more other words or word parts (such as smog from smoke and fog).
Entries for this topic close at 11 AM Thursday, New York time as displayed on this clock. A few minutes grace is often allowed, so submit your entry even if you are late. If approved, it will be moved to the correct topic if the one you missed is already closed.
