Calicornithologicalisation

Calicornithologicalisation: noun. The simple way of saying "when a bird is caught by a cat." Granted, the word has more letters, but when the spaces between the words of the above definition are counted, Calicornithologicalisation comes out as the clear winner of word-simplicity. The term itself was coined one night by an unknown person in an unknown place watching an unknown TV station, most probably after the consumption of an unknown brand of liquor. Modern sortologists (you know, people who sort stuff) further split the term Calicornithologicalisation into two categories: Victoriacalicornithologicalisation and Defectocalicornithologicalisation, the former being the name for a successful Calicornithologicalisation and the latter for the opposite.
