Immediately after realizing which term is which, I can't help but try to use them all in a sentence together, like "Those damn kids in Swith'eil Aerveid just sit around all day hooboo skramping and smoking their Karflon B43", which I think makes it even more clear how different the words "feel" from each other.


Sounds like the beginning of a pulp fantasy scifi novel. You could submit that sentence to the Little Lytton contest: http://adamcadre.ac/lyttle.html


> There was me. That is, Alex, and my three droogs. That is, Pete, Georgie and Dim. And we sat in the Korova Milk Bar trying to make up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening. The Korova Milk Bar sold milk plus. Milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom which is what we were drinking. This would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence.
