Flock-see-what?

Today I learned a new English word. A long one. One of those words that makes you go:

“Who hurt the English language?!”

The actual word is…

floccinaucinihilipilification.

Yes. Try saying that five times fast. Go ahead. I’ll wait.

My first attempt:

Flo-see-nau-blah-blah-blah-blah-tion

The real pronunciation, according to the dictionary:

flock-see-now-sih-NIH-luh-fih-KAY-shun

Meaning? To consider something worthless.

Basically, a fancy way of saying: “I don’t care about this nonsense.”

But let’s be honest… that word is way too long to use in daily life. So I give you my version:

Flock. See. Now.

Translation: “Gather around, good people!”

it’s fun, easy, and now officially my new favorite word.
