BECOOTIES = BEJEEBIES + COOTIES
While watching a sci-fi movie, the main character was running for her life from an onslaught of spider-like aliens which prompted me to say:
Yikes! Those creatures are scaring the becooties out of her!
Scary, creepy crawlers!😬

A Scrabulary word is comprised of two words inadvertently spoken as one in everyday conversation.
TIPPLES = TIPS + TOPPLES
It just so happens that today's word has a dictionary definition; however, it was spoken as a combination of two words thereby being a bona fide Scrabulary word. Here is how it was used as groceries were being loaded in the car.
"The grocery bags need to be side-by-side on the seat. If one is in front and the other behind, the front one tipples over when hitting the brakes."
No sudden stops, please.😉

GROSSOME = GROSS + GRUESOME
My grandson keeps me informed of the newest Scrabulary Word he hears his dad utter. Today's word is "grossome".
I was not given the context in which this word was spoken. It is left to my imagination what that context might have been.😂
I told my grandson to tell his dad that I think he is great at Scrabulary. My son-in-law said: "It comes naturally".🏆👏
