First the comic, then the comments.
A neologism is a word you make up. Literally, the term means “new word.”
Here’s the rule about neologisms: If you’re a native speaker, you can make up words all you want. The presumption is that you did it on purpose. But if you’re not a native speaker and you say a word that doesn’t exist, people will snicker at you because you made a mistake!
