Pseudo+Word+in+Word

Pseudo Word in Word All languages permit certain sounds and sound combinations and restrict other possible sounds that might be quite common in another language. These sounds, called phonemes, are a relatively small set of all possible sounds the human mouth, palate, tongue, and lungs can create; for example English uses only 40 phonemes in total. A pseudo word is one that could exist in a language in that all of its sounds and combinations were permitted, but it has no meaning whatsoever.

In a pseudo word, not only are the sounds found in other words in that language, but the pseudo word can be written using only the symbols of that language. Pseudo words can help to teach linguistic and grammatical rules. For example, student could practice conjugating the pseudoverb blurk as :- “I blurk, you blurk, he blurks, we blurk, they blurk,” and the past tense would be “blurked.”

Children love the novelty of a good pseudo word, particularly those that have an oddly delightful cadence or combination of sounds. These can also help teach affixes. One example could begin with the pseudo word, piggle. Regardless of the word's meaning or lack thereof, the prefix **un** would transform the ostensible definition to its opposite. Adding the suffix less to the ending, transforms the pseudo word again to unpiggleless, which according to the rules of logic, would mean the absence of an unpiggle, which would logically mean the presence of a piggle.
