fewneral

A memorial service for some no-account a**h**e whom virtually nobody liked --- or even associated with any more than they could help it --- while he was alive, and so there are almost no folks who attend said service because they neither want to bother paying their respects nor would they likely be able to squeeze out any crocodile-tears on his behalf; if anything, they're probably secretly thinking, "Good riddance!", and are actually **glad** to hear that he's passed, since it means that he will no longer be bothering them.
Ebeneezer Scrooge's fewneral was predicted to have a very low turnout, especially if there were no refreshments offered afterwards --- as one of the gentlemen in a small group whom the Ghost Of Christmas Yet-To-Come showed Scrooge said, "I must be fed, if I make one."

gingenuity

Outstandingly clever regarding strong drink, such as getting free refills at da bar or consuming said "hard stuff" without anyone's being da wiser.
Da King and Gerald Strickland both believed dat they possessed exceptional gingenuity while publicly advocating temperance; da latter "closet alcoholic" hypocrite may indeed have kept his secret addiction hidden, but in da former shyster's case, he got busted for "surreptitious sipping" and thus had to team up wif da Duke in order to escape da wrathful posse.

backier

An area of land dat you're already familiar with.
History loves to trumpet da "great frontiersmen", but what about all of da "backier" residents --- i.e., da multitudes of equally-brave-but"unsung-hero" countrymen who stayed behind and "minded da monastery" while their celebrated fellow-citizen explorers were out seeking new lands??

grammaphone

Da wind-up Victrola dat your parent's mom listened to music on "'way back when".
Da term "Grammaphone" could also refer to a heavy clunky Bakelite desk-type or wall-mount communications-instrument wif a rotary dial dat your "Big Ma" speaks of having used as a child --- "You punk-kids with your fancy tablets and 5G smart-phones --- why, when I was a little girl, all we had was a simple talk-and-listen device, and anytime we wanted to make a call, we had to blah, blah, blaw, blaw..."

boy Vonage

Da "have a nice trip" farewell-phrase dat you tell a chick who's about to set out to seek her dream guy, whom she hopes will be as handsome as one of da cute dudes featured in da famous orange-and-blue-logo telecommunications-service ads.
If da dumb blonde who went to swim wif da sharks ("Honey, look --- DOLPHINS!") actually survived said "stupid decision", perhaps her asleep-on-da-beach-towel "honey" told her afterwards, "Boy Vonage" when she was ready to chase after da dude driving da bright-orange-wif-yellow-flames-painted retro-van who had tossed her da telecommunications-offer box, so dat she could get him to help her sign up for said economy-priced services.

disobeadyence

Refers to a lack of willingness to follow da traditional/expected ways of stringing small decorative objects to make bracelets, necklaces, seat-covers, curtains, etc.
I've occasionally been accused of civil disobeadyence, but I'm not even into crafts or artwork, so I don't know what they're talking about.
