My Neologism of the Month

is French : PISCINABLE,

an adjective from piscine meaning a pool,
informs you that, in a garden
attached to a house you might be thinking of buying,
a pool might be constructed.

And from this adjective a noun might be constructed:
PISCINABILITÉ.












It contrasts with an English neologism I saw yesterday:

FUTILITARIANISM.
