Hi. Would you like to be on Identify the Wordie #2? You'll need to email identifythewordie@yours.com with your Wordie nick and the single word that best describes you. Cheers!

IE7

bridgework may be a good word but it's not 10 different letters

I can't say as I've heard dinkum oil more than once or twice in my life. I would take it to mean the lowdown, the inside story, the nitty gritty, something like that. Probably along the lines of oil as in essential oil; dinkum means genuine.

Thanks for catching my mispelling the word opsimath. What could be compelling, when preaching the need to learn, then to mispell the key word. Thankfully, I was not instructing bungee jumping or snake charming

Thanks for catching the error in my tag for cheerlessness, oroboros. I generally don't list words like cheerlessnesses. They're correctly formed, and sometimes listed in dictionaries (in this case MW3), but no one actually uses them. Although I do have a list for words created in dictionaries...

Love with hickbonics. Each one on the list made me smile and smile.

Thanks! You've made several lists I was thinking of making and I'm enjoying prowling through them. I've linked your Phonetic Alphabet to my Letters list.
