The sweet, strange, and slightly shady dialect your partner directs at only you.

Origin: Coined by Paired, the app that brings couples closer. Inspired by the quirky, emotional shorthand people develop in relationships—from baby talk to "Did you take the bin out?" side-eye.
Couplish: "You're wearing that? Bold choice."
Translation: "I would've picked literally anything else."

Being another pseudo-dialect like "Ebonics", coplish is police talk and English mixed together. For example, the phrase, "at this particular time" or "at this particular location" is used quite a bit, when they could just say "now" or "here" instead. Things that happen are "incidents." People are "subjects." Cars are "vehicles." Discuss becomes "advise."
"At this particular time we advised the subject that the perpetrator had fled the scene at this particular location and we would have to keep them updated on the incident," said the officer to the victim, speaking fluent coplish.

complishment 

Complishment is a high state of being, combining the finality of completion and the esteem of accomplishment.

Etymology: "Complishment" was first introduced into the English language in a scholarly communication about gravity, which can be found in the ArXiV paper ArXiv:0908.2271
"This paper has been withdrawn by the authors due to the paper is far from complishment." (ibid)

The health care bill is finally close to complishment.

Complishit 

A pandering , totally condescending PC compliment directed at usually a small child but occasionally a woman; common when kids call in NPR talk show, struggle through dumb question and then hosts fawn all over them.
I was listening to NPR when this not very bright 6 year old called in and asked what “cacaluda” meant ; the hosts started wildly kissing up, natch, paying them a total complishit
