These came out of typos on Caferati ages ago. Spot of wickedness we had, where we "defined" words that were spelled wrong.
Transrelate = To put into perspective for those who just don't get it.
Polygoat = Someone who can butt into conversations in several different languages.
Diaspuri = allegedly desi food available abroad that is not quite the real thing.
If we remember right, someone else came up with "polygloat." Don't remember the definition but here's ours:
Polygloat = someone who is very snooty and superior about being able to speak several languages.
Add more?
p.s. Check out the worthy Word Mint, where a team of dedicated neologists (if that's not a word, now it is) churn 'em out on a daily basis. Our Mousetrap review here or here.

Bothers in arms = News items about brothers, ex business partners, who have split, which are a bother to read (Well a leading newspaper had a typo where Anil-Mukesh were described as bothers in arms!)
