Glunk and bitey
Gold star to pinkletterlaw for her guess on "glunk", my family's made-up word.
"Glunk" is primarily a verb, but is also an onomatopoeia. It means to hit someone with a pillow, as in "MOM! He just glunked me in the face!" Wham, pillow smacks head.
It's also the sound of the impact of a pillow on something, usually a sibling. ::glunk:: Pillow meets head.
A very heavily used word in the She Says childhood household. Very useful.
"Bitey", my friend's family's word, refers generally to the not-quite-yet-ripe flavor of fruit... ya' know, when it leaves a bit of an aftertaste in your mouth. Like it has a bit of a bite. Bitey. This one hasn't made it into my vernacular.
