Dimply

An ancient Cornish word, that has recently come back into use. It is used to describe an attractive woman, and it's roots can be traced back to various meanings, amongst them - "beautiful", "fun-loving" and "ever-young". Perhaps its most suitable modern equivalent is "Lovely", although some Cornish scholars maintain this to be an understatement.

"Look at that lass Francina, she is dimply"

Distractatron

A distractatron is a person (usually female) who is incredibly distracting through excessive attractiveness and/or a high sex drive. Being around one means you are unlikely to get anything else done.

This is not always a bad thing.

"Man, that girl is so dimply, she is a total distractatron, I can't concentrate on my work"

Hai

A secondary greeting, to be used after the first round of hellos, typically on a phone conversation. It is often used as a filler while the caller/callee are remembering who called who and why. Pronounced similarly to "Hi" but the 'i' sound short, over-pronounced and with rising intonation, almost sounding surprised. Perhaps the best comparison is with a martial arts "hai-ya", but with the 'i' sound shortened abruptly. In writing, it is always followed with an exclamation mark.

"Hello"
"Hello"
"Hai!"
