Blog Challenge "P"

Earlier in the A to Z blog challenge, I brought up the word echopraxia.  It's not much of a stretch to relate today's word to it:

P is for: Pandiculation


Pandiculation is a word for stretching, often associated with yawning.  Just think.  If you were sitting in the front of a meeting or classroom, you could give a fake yawn and stretch and start an echopraxia and pandiculation wave.  Ha!  Have fun with that one.  :)

Quick note about pandiculation.  It does not have a verb form.  In other words, you can't say "pandiculate" in place of stretch.  Sorry, doesn't work.  But yay you, for thinking it if you did!
