Pronunciation - "Dee-John-ix"

The term coined for a made up word that is effectively created by the apparent lack of knowledge by the speaker (specifically a radio DJ). This disheartening phenomenon has a high rate of occurrence during the World's Largest Trivia Contest hosted by 90FM in Stevens Point Wisconsin.
SadDJ: "...while floating in milk, 'devarro' another square.."
TriviaPlayer1: "wait, what? Did that dude just say 'devarro' instead of devour?"
TriviaPlayer2: "yeah buddy, horrible case of djonics, I hope he does better"
-----------------------------------------------
Bad DJ: "The answer to question 1 in hour 43 is A-B-B-A"
TriviaPlayer1: "Aw hell no, does this guy NOT know who ABBA is and spelled their name instead?"
TriviaPlayer2: "Yes, this is an example of inexperienced djonics, he has no idea who ABBA is.
-----------------------------------------------
ConfusedDJ: "In the anals of punkadalia..."
TriviaPlayer1: "Nooope, Nope, I swear to God he meant to say 'annals' and just doesn't know how to read"
TriviaPlayer2: "Best example of djonics EVER"

doorwall 

A door wall is a sliding-glass door or patio door. The term is yet another example of banal Michigan vernacular, where in the residents latch on to company names, trademark names, marketing terms and product names from local companies. The terms become embedded in the local vocabulary and eventually become accepted as actual valid words and phrases. In this case the term comes from Wallside Windows in Taylor, MI (a large window manufacturer), where 'door wall' is their created word for sliding-glass door.
"Bob! John's gonna bring over them doorwalls from Wallsides on Tuesdee afternoon 'round two-thirty. Get 'er done!"

pod person 

A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.
