- maemilius 7y agoIf a word accurately conveys meaning to another person, does it matter that it's made up? If you hadn't mentioned it (and I hadn't looked it up as a result), I would have had no idea it wasn't a "real" word.
- foobarbecue 7y agoWell, every word was, at some point, made up. Maybe we should herald the birth of this new word with great rejoicing.
- juped 7y agoNo one made up any words, they just misspelled "unsubstantive" (understandably!).
- foobarbecue 7y agoMade up or misspelled, I just think it's interesting that the error was contagious.
