Shakespeare's creation of new words pales in comparison with the modern master of language James Joyce, though I do not know for certain of any cases of these words being recognized by those who write dictionaries. Consider these quotes from Joyce's mind boggling novel Finnegans Wake, a novel where Joyce utilizes 17 different languages. The whole "novel," if you can call it that in any traditional sense, is written in this "made up" language:<BR>

End here. Us then. Finn, again! Take. Bussoftlhee, mememormee! Till thousandsthee. Lps. The keys to. Given! A way a lone a last a loved a long the riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from swerve of shore to bend of bay, brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to Howth Castle and Environs.<BR>
(628.13 to 3.3) <BR>

and look at this prepronominal <I>funferal</I>, engraved and retouched and edgewiped and puddenpadded, very like a whale's egg farced with pemmican, as were it sentenced to be nuzzled over a full trillion times for ever and a night till his noddle sink or swim by that ideal reader suffering from an ideal insomnia: all those red raddled obeli cayennepeppercast over the text, calling unnecessary attention to errors, omissions, repetitions and misalignments:<BR>

Yes, if you can make up a new word, and get enough people to use it, it will eventually be added to the dictionary. Go for it!<BR>

"Google," though it is a deliberate misspelling of the word for the number "Googol," is already recognized as a new verb. This happened rather quickly, just since the introduction of the Internet search engine Google in 1998:<BR>
