I know a couple people who are exactly this brand of weird. One of them owns the domain onepartwords.com.
The other wrote a one-syllable dictionary. It has about 2500 one-syllable words, defined using only other one-syllable words. Here's a few excerpts:
- Bake - To cook meat or cake with heat from all sides
- Flask - a glass jug with a small top and big low part
- Mouse - a small beast that hides in the house and is chased by cats
- Spring - (1) a coil of wire (2) a warm but not hot part of the year
Sadly, I don't think it's online anywhere.
- saghm 1y agoWhy "meat or cake" rather than "food"? I guess if they've defined cake in a much broader way in their entry it might make sense, but it seems kind of strange to limit it in this way when the most obvious generic word for what gets baked is also one syllable.
