Borborygmy

As a lover of language, I carry around in my crowded skull a list of words that make me laugh or just strike me as strange. For example, I learned the word eelymosynary from the great senator from North Carolina, Sam Ervin, the man who helped save America (so we could have Bush?) by chairing the Senate Watergate Committee and beginning the end of the personality disordered Nixon (whom I look back upon with a certain amount of nostalgia now that America is being systematically destroyed).

And who can forget borborygmy, a delightfully descriptive word?

Can any of the one of you who read this thing step forward and tell us what these words mean (without resorting to the dictionary!)?

Here, lady and gentleman, is the strangest word in the English language. A word that I find myself saying over and over, rolling it about on the tongue of my mind.

The strangest word in the English language:

Borborygmy? That's the sound your stomach makes when it's hungry.
