Merriam Webster has a real time display of words being looked up on their site, just as they were entered by the user. I sat and watched for a bit and started noticing consecutive words that could start phrases. It was interesting (for a little while anyway - I do have a life - did you buy that?) rooting for the next word - "flower, flower, flower - ahhhh, sadomasochist". The best phrases I came across were:

full - depravity - skilled - repetiore (advertisement for a den of iniquity?)
heart broken - bunch - concedes - omission (I wonder what those poor folks omitted?)
sumptuous - damned - free - bedroom (a well appointed bedroom where anything goes?)

:lol:

It has a voyeristic quality. I see a lot of simple words being checked; I guess these would be non english speakers using it as their resource.

Hehe, this is strange to watch :)

excellent
guage
volition
junction
small
...um, someone needed to look up the spelling or definition of "small"?

I saw small too. I tried entering a word then waiting to see if it showed up. It didn't so I wonder if that thing is a fake. :lol:
