To leave quickly or in a hurry; to take oneself off; to decamp; to depart.
Blended jocular mock-Latin word. Arose in America in the 19th century (about 1837). Probably made up of the following parts: The Latin adverb and prefix ab, "away (from)", (maybe taken from abscond), the suffix -ate (maybe taken from perambulate or undulate), and the middle portion, "squatul", which might be a derivation of to squat.

1. To move off in a rush; to hurry away.
2. To die.
Created from the idea, "go off and squat somewhere," from Latin ab-, "away from" + excoactus, "to sit down" + -ulus, a diminitive suffix + -atus, implying "to do."

pretentious abscond
A large, stupid word used primarily by liberal arts majors looking to flaunt the size of their dictionary. In the evolutionary tree that is the English language, absquatulates is at the dead-end of a parasite infested branch alongside grandeloquent, inveigle. and socialism.

The liberal arts major chose absquatulates as her email address because it was hard to type and vaguely reminiscent of the sound a duck makes as it's being beaten to death by a rubber chicken.

" … Now I see you again—I’m satisfied. I’m satisfied completely. See? I’m going to absquatulate, see? Hey Presto right away.”

When something disappears under not-so-mysterious circumstances, it was "absquatulated." If a friend takes out the best looking donut you have ever seen and then devours it without sharing, then you just watched your friend "absquatulate" it. 19th century slang word
