   "form"?? Must be a typographical error, eh?   
      
   "Dunney"?? The word "Dunny" has no "E" before the "Y".

   A pseudonym is an alternative name and, as such, is not and is never   
   meant to be a "word" as defined in a dictionary. It is a name, any name,   
   even one entirely made up on the spur of the moment.   
      
   You, on the other hand, are not using a pseudonym at all. You are using   
   an incorrectly spelled word, no ifs, no buts, no wherefores!

   If it isn't in the Oxford English Dictionary II, the full and complete   
   version, then it isn't English.   
      
   It isn't even an Americanism.   
      
   BTW, children make up words to compensate for their lack of vocabulary   
   skills. You are a little too old for that caper, don't you think?   
      
   > Anyone can use a new word when ever they want to.   
      
   True, but that doesn't make the word an English word any more than   
   living in Thailand makes you Thai.

   Well, a lot of people DO interject "duh" into a conversation. As well,   
   quite a few interject "duh" into written works. No surprise there!
