elsewhat

Something else.

Once a respectable English word, deriving from Old English /elles hwat/. Unfortunately it died out.

See also elsewhere, and compare elsewhen (1418), elsewho (1542), elsehow (modern).

It takes time and effort which might usefully be spent doing elsewhat. (The Face, Nick Logan)

But his eyes were saying elsewhat (One shining summer, Quinn Wilder)

like elsewhere but applying to:

What have you been doing the six weeks while I was away, skydiving?

Naah.. I’ve been busy with elsewhat lately...

Or else what?

A reply that comes after Or else.

"Go make me a sandwich. OR ELSE."

"Or else what!?"

"I'll fuse Carrot Top and Pauly Shore and, uh...George W, Bush to your head. Oh, and Hitler's big toe. And maybe Ryan Seacrest's bald scalp."

"I'm goin', I'm goin'."
