'Nutmegged'

Post by Leo on Sun 01 Jun 2008, 03:00

Saw this word on Cricinfo, and was somewhat confused. You learn something new every day.

Now I'm trying figure out a way to drop it into a conversation with one of my various friends called 'Meg'... Smile

Yeah, there's a second Wikipedia article focussed exclusively on the football aspect.

In the US Spelling Championships televised on ESPN over the weekend (amazing what you find when channel surfing) One kid was asked to spell 'numnah'. The audience, and the kid cracked up because it really sounded like he'd been asked to spell 'numbnuts'.
