Ichaslang Dictionary Adds an Important Word

[jack_kilcrease.jpg]

To Kilcrease
[v. kill-krees-e; n. kill-krees] verb, -creased, -creas·ing, noun
–verb (used with object)
1. to eliminate; to remove evidence of, confession, opinion, or error; decrease; take away from: to kilcrease the evidence.

Scholars are divided, but some think the word began to be used when a Roman Catholic adjunct instructor started erasing his own blog posts and comments.
