Mockingful, satiricalish.

I made a little quizzacious attack upon the bishop.
Works a 1832, Jeremy Bentham (1843)

I made the definition more betterful by adding coolish suffixesises. Doesn’t it make me sound much smarterer?

Anyway, quizzacious is a fun substitute for quizzical for you to use. But the sound of the word makes it… I don’t know… fuller? Quizzical sounds intellectualer and logicalish, but quizzacious sound like has more meat on its bones when I say it aloud.

Next time, stay tuned for a Quizzical Quiz for Quirky Quizzacious Quolls.

If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests?
