cromulent - acceptable or satisfactory
originally invented in the show simpsons i 1996 as a joke
“A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man.”
One teacher leans over to another and says that she’d never heard the word embiggen before . “I don't know why,” the other teacher replies. “It's a perfectly cromulent word.”
the joke being that both embiggen and cromulent were not actual words
ironically both of these are now accepted into general use, with them having a page at merriam webster
there are alternate spelling of the word being: chromulent, cromulant which aren't the official spellings and are wrong but refer to the same thing
