Izzat
(IZ ut)

is not a nut,
but lives in your gut,
in your soul's hut -
to insults it says, "What?!
I'm no stray mutt,
nor ghost of King Tut.
I'm me, like you but
with more honor, izzat."

ReplyDeleteI went looking "Izzat" on my own and found my izzat restored and my wallet secure ;)
Hey! Thanks for telling me!! That is lame. I switched the link to a different online Dictionary. :)
DeleteVery interesting...Hadn't heard of that one before!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jadurani! :)
Deletehmm interesting, izzat I will attempt to use this and seee how many people think I am using red-neck terms....lol
ReplyDeleteHmmmm... be careful how you use it. :P Thanks for visiting. :)
DeleteVery funny word--though taken very seriously, one thing for sure you can't fall down and break your izzat, but if someone else breaks it...izzat a sword I see? Really enjoy your wacky words, Rachel :-) Thank you!
ReplyDeleteLOL. I'm not sure I got the meaning across as well this time... either that or everyone just loves the sound of the word too much so they are expanding its uses. :)
DeleteI know this word! Finally!
ReplyDeleteSmart lady!! :)
DeleteWhat an interesting word and a fun one to say, not to mention a good Z word to know for Scrabble (as long as you have a blank tile as well) :)
