No one has suggested a NEXT WORD in previous post so m picking up a left-over word that was posted in real hurry by TAC007 (whr he kept on posting consecutive new words without break )

MORON :
a person who is notably stupid or lacking in good judgment.



a person of borderline intelligence in a former classification of mental retardation, having an intelligence quotient of 50 to 69.

Usage : Very likely, in the future you'll have a moron for a boss, and if you've figured out how to work with morons during your school days, you will have an education that benefits you in your dealings with your moron boss. At most companies, there's at least 1 or 2 morons it seems are falling upward, and if you're in close with them, your career can advance as theirs does, without a potential fall when their higher ups eventually realize they are morons.


Next : Compunction

Continuing earlier post..

Ululate : to howl, as a dog or a wolf; hoot, as an owl.

An interesting reference :

"Ululation is found in some singing techniques and ritual situations. In Arab countries ululation is commonly used by women to express celebration or grief, especially at wedding and funerals. It may also be used to encourage belly dancing"

Does it sounds like Himesh ?
