Baa-daa-wee
There are possible plans underway to apply to the Oxford and Webster to include a new word for their 2009 dictionary:
badawi [baa-daa-wee] (noun): To start something full of promise but end in disappointment, failure and/or disaster.
Eg:
‘I’m trusting you to perform this task well; don’t do a badawi, ok?’
‘Whatever I do, I will always find a way to badawise it.’
France badawied their Euro 2008 campaign. England pre-badawied theirs, while Italy were guilty of over-badawification.
ps: When are they going to include KJ as a new word? Kay-jay.
