Thorpedo

Nickname of Australian superstar swimmer Ian Thorpe, the most decorated Australian athlete at the Olympics with 5 gold medals. Spelling derived from last name and definition from both his incredible speed in the pool and his trademark black bodysuit which he wears to all his competitions.

Even with the help of the Thorpedo, the Austrailian relay swim team could not defeat the US team.

Get the Thorpedo mug.

Thore

Thore means Think More. We all have been through situations when you needed more time to think about an answer. Or when you were expected to give an answer and you were in a big rush and couldn't talk at that exact moment. Or when someone is waiting for a conclusion/answer and you are not sure what your answer is but, at the same time, you feel that by saying that you need more time to think about that, the person is going to get confused, unsure or offended. By using Thore, it is going to get a lot more smooth, elegant, rapid, fancy and friendly to ask for more time or to advice someone to get his/her facts right.

I have to thore about the possible outcomes that might appear as a result of my actions.

You should thore before speaking.

Thoring is one way of training our minds.

I will have to thore about which jacket do I want to buy.

I thored/did thore about what you said and I got to a conclusion.
