I remember as a child learning new words, that our teacher would have use them in a sentence to convey it's proper use.

For example:

Grimm is a retrosexual.

Does anyone disagree?

It's in his bloodline ;-)))

and yet "chaz" hasn't made the cut on dictionary.com (means lame). I use it alot, and everyone, even those who haven't heard it before, get it. "OMG, what a chaz"....."He's a total chaz"....etc.

That's because it's the "English" dictionary, only dumb words that we make up get into it :P
