Hi,

I like sporks. As I habitually eat my food with a spork (portmanteau
of 'spoon' and 'fork'), I seriously zo'o need a word for 'spork'.

I tentatively propose:

??mucyjoifro: x1 is a spork/combined spoon and fork for use x2

The obvious disadvantage: That word is terribly long. I like sporks
and talk about them very much, and I'd prefer having a short word,
rather like 'spork' or German 'G=C3=B6ffel' ['g=C5=93fl=CC=A9]. So I furthe=
r propose,
most tentatively:

??ucfo: x1 is a spork/combined spoon and fork for use x2 (etym.: from
'[sm]uc[i joi] fo[rca])

What do you think? Also on whether the additional places of 'smuci'
and 'forca' should better be kept in a word for spork?

-iesk

PS: Did I say I like sporks?
