Slick Willy's definitions
Convenient one word term for the otherwise clumsy "take out of context". Obviously derived from context and extricate (latter meaning to elaborately and deviously withdraw from a precarious situation). This is new coinage - you heard it on Urban Dictionary first.
The attorney contextricated his client's ex-wife tennis lessons on summer afternoons to give them the appearance of a tawdry romance ostensibly culminating in a tryst.

Get the contextricatemug. The sound of hocking, and then aiming the hock to perfectly hit the rim of the spitoon to make the "-tung!!" sound. It made everyone pay attention, hence its other, more common definition. Alleged to be the first word in the German language, on which all other words are based.
Acccccccccchhhhh-splat!!!! dammit, let me try again ... don't slip on that ...
Acccccccccchhhhh-TUNGGGG!!!! There ya go!
Acccccccccchhhhh-TUNGGGG!!!! There ya go!

Get the Achtungmug. Example of a tautology: Bad people take drugs; therefore, people who take drugs are bad.
The other definition appearing here, "Unnecessary repetition of a word", is a crudification and wrong - such pointless reiterative repetition is a redundancy, and one who makes such a definition is called a "redundunce". Consult Fowler.

Get the tautologymug. To cause a mate to be without orgasms, or restricted in arousal. To keep restricted within a chastity device: for women, to prevent penetration; for men, to prevent erection and fondling. See cbt. See also tease.
Marriage for this unusual couple marked the beginning of his frustration: she chastised him for weeks at a time, while consorting and cavorting herself with his best friends and neighbors.

v.tr. To overrule a "correction"
(From Latin, to et it stand, third person singular present subjunctive of stare; typesetters' / copy editors abbreviation to "uncorrect" a revision made in error. As typesetting becomes obsolete, alas, so probably will this powerful little word.)
