Tres Palabras Numero Dos

Tres Palabras Numero Dos

Tres Palabras is a word feature where someone looks up 3 intense, difficult or foreign words that Jess the English professor does not know. Jess will get only the word and what part of speech it is. From there, Jess must define the word and use it in a sentence.

What Jess believes these words mean:

Jocund (adjective): A word that describes the smell of jock strap. It combines the two words jock and underwear. Sentence: After 30 minutes on the treadmill after not showering for four days, Fat Roy’s jocund crotch made his dog cringe.

Velocipede (noun): These are the type of shoes that velociraptors wear when they get old.  Sentence: One velociraptor from the first Jurassic Park movie made a cameo in Jurassic World and demanded he get some sweet velocipedes as to not aggravate his 500 million year old bunion.

Fartlek (noun): This is the act of trying to give yourself a blow job, but you accidentally fart in your own face. Sentence: Trying to pull off a fartlek after a night of Mexican food and egg salad is lethal to your back and nose cilia.

What these words mean in real life:

Jocund (adjective): Cheerful and lighthearted. Have you ever had a shitty day and then met someone with such a jocund disposition that you just want to punch them in the clavicle?

Velocipede (noun): An early form of bicycle propelled by working pedals on cranks fitted to the front axle.  Sentence: It’s the law that a bicyclist can only ride a velocipede if the bicyclist drinks craft beer, sports a man bun and plays ukulele. 

Fartlek (noun): A system of training for distance runners in which the terrain and pace are continually varied to eliminate boredom and enhance psychological aspects of conditioning. Sentence: While training for the annual Fatty Fat Fat 5K, Fat Roy tried to prepare with a fartlek, but decided to give up after he realized that running will be boring for forever and until the end of time. Running sucks.
