I have been given a mission. A quest if you will.
My good friend has embarked on a campaign to revive a long lost word.
While some would argue that the word is long, and lost for a good reason. Others would say it is a simply marvelous word, and must be used at all occasions whether appropriate or not.
The word, ladies and gentleman is "Hullabaloo". Yes. Feel how gently it rolls of the tongue.
For those less knowledgeable than myself and my supremely knowledgeable friend, the definition of hullabaloo is a great noise or disturbance.
An example of one of the many wonderful places you can use the word hullabaloo.
. . .At the next rugby game you attend wearing your cargo short pant and "lions" T-shirt. Enter the box and exclaim, "My good man, what is all the hullabaloo".
When you have recovered from the extensive surgery caused by the beating you took, when the drunk dutchman thought you were swearing at him, you will have a good story about the time you caused such a hullabaloo . . .
Enjoy your experience of using new and ever exciting new words and expressions.
