Estonian phenomenon
Estonia is a small country in northern Europe that feels and would like to be nordic, but actually belongs to the baltic countries south of the baltic sea. Due to its size and since just about 1.4 million people live there (for reference: New York has 8.4 million inhabitants) , somthing that has been dubbed the "estonian phenomenon" can be witnessed here. The term describes that everyone practically knows everyone or at least someone who knows them. This makes gossip equally more interesting and more dangerous, since the person you are gossiping about will almost certainly hear about it. Sometimes Estonia feels like a big family gathering of a country where even someone who seems to be a random stranger has most likely some kind of relation to you.
"Oh hey, I know the girl who just delivered our food... that was an awkward interaction"
"How do you know her?"
"Its just a case of estonian phenomenon, my classmate used to work at her families store and she used to play soccer with my second cousin. Did you know that she broke up with her Boyfriend?"

phenamjulate
The action of squeaking by pressing your curled lips together tightly and forcing air out. This causes one's lips to bulge amusingly. People who practice this are able to control pitch (much like letting air very slowly out of a balloon), volume (quieter requires greater effort to achieve the same pitch) and may even be able to produce two or more distinct and independantly controlled pitches simultaneously (one from each side of the mouth usually).
The ability to phenamjulate successfully requires lips. These lips should not be too wet or dry and should be in reasonable condition. Results are NOT dependant on the size or shape of the lips in question, but rather the exercised control over them. Loose, soggy lips will produce a low raspberry, but good phenamjulation should sound similar to that of a squeaky door.
Only the very silly can master this as an artform and can sometimes be heard phenamjulating the intonation of entire conversations. The longest possible phenamjulation is indeffinate, as it uses a similar technique to playing the digeridoo and is thus unconstrained by breathing. One may also hum along or add lip-flicking/wobbling techniques to add effect. Extended periods of phenamjulation are not recommended however, due to the immense strain caused by inflating the skin around the mouth and the vibration involved.
