“Word Nerd Wednesday” is a weekly series that uses language to help us think differently and solve old problems in new ways.
A memory from the Milwaukee Airport, ca. 2012. A sign read – Recombobulation Area. Best sign ever, in my opinion.
It prompted a long discussion with my geek friends about whether “combobulate” and “recombobulate” were words on their own (or should be). According to Merriam-Webster, they are not. Only “discombobulate” is in the dictionary. Now you know.
