Homa

Homa: noun. A homa is the mother of a harlot. The word was created by the merging of a very naughty word and the word "ma," making it one of the shortest and smallest "mergers" in the history of English. The word was to be included as a pun in the musical Oklahoma, with the sudden arrival of a confused Spanish speaking tourist claiming that "la homa" is o.k., but it was deemed too daft and was dropped, thus robbing the English-speaking public of a word that never made an appearance anywhere.
