Excellent word! I had a high school English teacher who went to Yale. He was so pissed off being relegated to a public school that he used to pull words out of his ass to flunk on us every pop quiz. Some examples:

- Gotterdammerung
- Zeitgeist
- Leitmotif

Of course, the first word became the football team's code for scoring with chicks. We used to ask each other "Gotterdammerung last night?" God love him now though. What a character.
