faunch

Faunch: verb, meaning to rage and storm, to fight against fate. "Faunching at the bit" implies waiting in nervous agitation and impatience, like a wild horse that is fighting against a harness. Probably derives from Irish "fonn taodach" - to quote Daniel Cassidy's book, "How the Irish Invented Slang" (p.139) "an impulsive frame of mind, jittery excitation, a fierce humor", taodach meaning "excited, fidgety, quick-tempered." (Cassidy's entry was not defining "faunch", but "fantod." I made the leap myself.

I was faunching at the bit to drive my uncle's new Mustang.

Fauncy

A drop in replacement for fancy, with a lot more panache! Use fauncy in your day to day conversations to illustrate your sharp judgment and taste. People will know immediately the kind of discerning and most importantly, fauncy person you are!

It's not fancy, it's fauncy!

Faunus

Faunus - A Species Of Half-Human Half-Animal Hybrids that came from the Anime known as RWBY. All Faunushave 1 Animal Characteristic. Such as Cat Ears, Wings, Chameleon Camouflage, Etc. As for their Half-Human part, well.. They're Human. Faunus-Kind have been Mistreated and despite the "effort" meant to make them equal, Humanity still thought of them as Second-Class Citizens.

"Creatures known as the Faunus bore Fangs and Claws and were locked away in Cages."

"The White fang is hardly a group of Psychopaths. They are a Collection of Misguided Faunus."

fauna fan

Someone who loves animals (in a nice way).
Opposite to Faunacator (who loves animals in the naughty way.)

1. Sally was a fauna fan who worked at a zoo and spent her spare time fundraising for wild animals. Jim was a fauna fan too, but he lived on the moon, so his menagerie consisted of two robotic goldfish and a wall full of animal posters.

2. I'd rather be a fauna fan than a fauna-cator.

"where?"
"That guy there!"
"Wow! that is one incredible faunt."
