Recrementitious. An adjective meaning "of, relating to, consisting of, or of the nature of superfluous matter separated from that which is useful."
Can you use it in a sentence?
"I mean really, don't Depeche Mode seem completely recrementitious at this point?"
Culled from the live network finals of the National Spelling Bee, which is a completely wild thing on its own. The response to pressure of these 14-year olds is heartening. With the country watching on live network television, they just step up to the mike and do the job at hand: spell the most obscure and non-intuitively spelled words. Their voices shake a bit sometimes, but mostly they seem up to the task, even if they miss the word.
