I would like to submit two words for Wordnik if you decide to accept new portmanteaus and contractions. These two are food and beverage related.
Word: "chocsimile"
Definition: chocolates created or molded in the shape of identifiable objects (boats, planes, trains, tools, cigars), people, animals, places or other recognizable things (famous plaques, memorials, caricatures, etc.)
Source: a combination of the words "chocolate" and "facsimile"
Usage/history: This is a term I have used regularly for the past 9 years on my website (ChocolateBanquet.com) to economize, avoid long phrases when a shorter term would do
Word: "filk"
Definition: any of the many "fake" or non-dairy milks that are currently on the market, including soy milk, rice milk, almond and other nut milks, hemp milk, coconut milk, etc.
Source: a combination of the words "fake" and "milk"
Usage/history: This is a term I have used regularly in conversations with others, and on my website (ChocolateBanquet.com) to avoid longer descriptive phrases of these relatively new non-dairy "milk" beverage offerings
Best to you,
Corinne
