The KKK edition. Tonight's words will all start with the letter K, because those are actually quite rare and unappreciated. That's not to say that each of the words will be themed around the KKK or white supremacy, but I did go out of my way to choose words that are about taboo subjects. As such, these words will most likely be of use to absolutely nobody in casual conversation.
Oh, and no audio pronunciations tonight. My dogs are being bad, and it's raining out, so I can't seem to find a good spot to record my voice. From now on, I suppose I'll just write up a big backlog of words (because I normally just use whatever pops into my head) and record their pronunciations in advance. But for now, we're going to have to forgo hearing my beautiful, oneiric voice. My apologies.
Karezza - /
kah - REHT - sah/
Noun derived from the Italian word carezza, meaning "caress".Fucking without cumming.
That's what it is. It's having intercourse for as long as possible without climaxing, as a means to maximize/prolong the pleasure. The term was coined by some sexologist (okay, she was actually a gynecologist, but what's the difference?), but unfortunately for her, we already had a term for that floating around--
coitus reservatus. As a result, her term never saw extensive use. In other words, it
came too late.Please keep in mind that the word is indeed a noun, not a verb, despite being etymologically derived from the Italian verb. So, while you cannot
karezza with your girlfriend, you can still
engage in the act of
karezza.
Kindergraph - /
KIN - der - graf/
[kindergraphs] [kindergraphy]
Derived from the German kinder, meaning "child".A photograph of a child.
There is absolutely nothing offensive about this.
She showed me her mother's photo album, which contained many of her cherished
kindergraphs from her childhood.
Of course, the noun form, kindergraphy, is indeed the art or practice of taking photographs of children.
...Okay, that one might be a little bit contentious.
Let's say only Das is permitted to use that word.
Kyriolexy - /
KEE - ree - oh - LEK - see/
[kyriolexical] [kyriolexically]
Derived from the Greek kyrios, meaning "lord" or "master".The use of literal expressions, as opposed to figurative ones (a habit commonly associated with autism).
This term isn't as offensive as its potential, of course. Each word in this thread was prefaced with a
kyriolexical definition. That is to say, a blunt and honest one. No beating around the bush. To assume someone is thinking
kyriolexically is to suggest that they are incapable of understanding sarcasm, or the general facetious tone of your statements (online or offline). This is as much of an insult as being called "autistic" is, which will depend on your predispositions, I suppose.
Though, in general, if you try to use this word to insult anybody, you're probably just going to get bemused looks.

I hope I didn't just give pedophiles a covert way of looking up CP...
