Inferiturition

(noun) /ɪnˌfɛrɪtjʊˈrɪʃən/

The active, unfinished process through which a possibility takes form as something real. More than potential, less than completion: the becoming already underway.

Inferiturition begins when something is no longer merely possible but is taking shape. It does not guarantee a finished outcome; the unfolding may falter, change direction, or become something unforeseen.

A philosophical coinage inspired by Latin in fieri (“in the process of becoming”) and futurition (“the state of being future”).

Its companion word, infierith, names the intimate tension of that becoming experienced or imagined from within.

Coined by Dehago Hope, 2026—because English had a hole in it precisely the shape of tomorrow.
“The project was no longer hypothetical; it had entered inferiturition, taking shape through every decision they made.” or “The philosopher described identity as a continuous inferiturition: a self taking form without ever becoming final.”

Inferiturition

(noun) /ɪnˌfɛrɪtjʊˈrɪʃən/

The state of actively becoming: when something has begun to take form but is not yet fully realized. Especially, the tension of that unfolding imagined or experienced from within—no longer merely possible, not yet complete.

Potential is what could happen. Inferiturition is the becoming already underway. It names the inner tension of arrival, without promising that arrival will be completed. A seedling splitting its shell; a thought taking shape in words; a love still unspoken but already changing the people inside it.

Etymology: A coinage inspired by the Latin in fieri (“in the process of becoming”) and futurition (“the state of being future”). Coined by Dehago Hope, 2026—because English had a hole in it precisely the shape of tomorrow.
“Their love was still in inferiturition—unspoken, but already rewriting the architecture of two futures.”

“I’m not waiting for my life to begin. This messy, unfinished part is inferiturition.”

“In the story, the digital mind’s first uncertain stirrings marked a period of inferiturition: something was becoming someone, though neither its makers nor the mind could yet say who.”

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
