Sabottus
Made up words…they can be hilarious. ![]()
Our church (not house church) originally created the word “sabottus”, pronounced “suh-BOT-us”.
It can be used for literally ANYTHING. It was originally created to confuse a know-it-all guy there, who thought he knew any word people said. So they made one up when he wasn’t there, and started using it. Well, he started pretending he knew what they were talking about, which caused much merriment. ![]()
So now, it’s become the “Official church youth word”.
Examples of usage:
“Man…that guy is a real sabottus.”
“The test was a sabottus”
“Sabottus!” (like a greeting)
“She made it a sabottus”.

There you have it!

I claim full rights to the inspiration of this blog posting! WAKAMAYA!
Nice! That is cool. You’ve given me another word to use.
I knew you’d get a kick out of wakamaya! That was my 2 am sarcasm.
And now, I shall infect the Westmont community with it in little more than a week. Should I let them know it’s fake, or attach a meaning, or leave them in pure confusion? I wish to know what the mighty Camel’s counsel is.
I should say, leave them in pure confusion.
Use the word in different contexts throughout the day…see what happens.
Lol, thats hilarious.
