a word that fuses two or more other words together to give a new meaning.
i.e.:
- wiktionary, my new discovery today, along with this word
- the loathable ginormous (which I would argue needs a hyphen)
- SeaTac
- Alsask (a city on the border of Alberta and Saskatchewan)
- and spork
coined by Lewis Carroll in Through the Looking Glass.

oh, yes, anon. of course.
