A word derived from the region of Greece named Laconia, the capital city of which is Sparta. It means to speak in a concise way, as the Spartans often did.
Philip II of Macedon: "You are advised to submit without further delay, for if I bring my army into your land, I will destroy your farms, slay your people, and raze your city."

Sparta: "If."

the Lacanian Real 

a nonexistent entity believed in by some psychoanalysts as an excuse for flagellating themselves, and/or by cultural critics as an explanation for anything they can't explain.
Because of the Lacanian Real, we're all a pile of shit.
