@@mccarthy5825 this is mostly a misconception. Shakespeare is the first attestation of a large number of English words, but that's simply a reflection of the fact that he is such a well-preserved writer with a large body of work. The words he is often mistakenly said to have "invented" in newspaper articles etc. are usually simply words that the OED has (or at one point had) their first example as coming from a Shakespeare text. But those are most all pre-existing words for which no earlier written example's survive (or, as it turns out, which simply hadn't been found or noticed, being from much more obscure sources than the most famous English playwright to ever live).

These words are not made up: Contrafibularity = false congratulation Anaspeptic = having sex on a beach (out of context of what blackadder was saying) Phrasmotic = cool, self controlled and confident Compunctuous = feeling uneasy due to guilt Pericombobulation = to be disturbed or confused Interfrastic = to return at a time which suits the person returning, (is a polite insult, 'I'll come back when I damn well please'). Pendigestory interludicule = a light late afternoon tea (observed by upper classes) Velocitous = taking pleasure in speed Extramurallisation = to function outside, or more a euphemism for doing something outside set boundaries, (probably in context here as an alternative word for going outside)
Are you sure about all of those? Contrafibularity is a combination of contra, meaning "against" and fibula, one of the bones in the lower leg. The joke here is that Blackadder is using a word which effectively means 'pulling your leg", English vernacular for joking.
My favourite ever scene in Blackadder. I even got one of those words in my sermon on Sunday as a tribute to this comedy genius. My contrafibulariries to the script writers and actors for the felicitousness this scene has given me over the years
Brilliant absolute genius. If there was a word to express this scene I’ve yet to hear it sheer unadulterated brilliance. ❤️❤️❤️🏴🏴👌👌👌🏴
I do believe we've heard all the words that can express about this scene and I wrote them down in this _complete and exhaustive_ dictionary over words to describe such a scene as this.
RIP Robbie, this performance was so funny yet surprisingly accurate portrayal of Dr Johnson had him returning to the Role a second time in 1993 the serious Historical film production "Dr Johnson & Boswell's Tour of The Western Isles" . The real Dr Johnson was a man before his time, progressive for his time & was quick to point out the hypocrisy of others such as certain American Founder Fathers for preaching Freedom whilst keeping Slaves & allying with the Absolute Monarchies of France & Spain. He did have a manservant Francis Barber who happened to be Black but he was Free, was a genuine friend of his and was left a fortune in his will, & his descendants are still involved with the Dr John museum.
When Dr. Samuel Johnson had completed the first real dictionary of the English language, he was visited by a delegation of respectable ladies of English society who wished to congratulate him for not including any indecent words. He then offered his most sincere contrafibularties to the ladies for taking the time to look them up. Christopher Hitchens
I missed the news until rewatching this. Robbie Coltrane was a cornerstone. Everything that is good and noble in this world must pass. The vile and nasty is all that lives forever. How are Piers Morgan and Jeremy Clarkson still alive while someone like Robbie Coltrane must leave us? It's difficult to deal with. This is not good news. Bring me some other news. 🙁
Farewell Robbie, an absolute staple of my upbringing,first loved him in Danny Champion of the world, my Dad worked with him on Cracker and confirmed my suspicion that he was a wonderful human being, a huge loss, this one will leave a scar just as Rick Mayall did and many other's will no doubt.

I think Blackadder is the first time i saw Robbie on the telly. I've been laughing at him ever since!
This scene never fails to have me in stitches. Fantastic stuff! RIP Robbie.
He was a great talent.
Greatest comedy sketch ever imo
Here! Here! Pure genius
Rest in peace, Robbie Coltrane. My most enthusiastic contrafibularities for the joy you brought us.

He will always be the best Dr Johnson
"Certainly, Sir. Anything I can do to facilitate your velocitous extramuralisation." Utter genius!

I still have to figure out what made the british think it was a practical idea to come up with such a word, all to say “go outside somewhere”.

Brilliant sketch. Dr Samuel Johnson's house still stands in Gough Square London where he did indeed take over eight years to write his dictionary.
These words are not made up:
Contrafibularity = false congratulation
Anaspeptic = having sex on a beach (out of context of what blackadder was saying)
Phrasmotic = cool, self controlled and confident
Compunctuous = feeling uneasy due to guilt
Pericombobulation = to be disturbed or confused
Interfrastic = to return at a time which suits the person returning, (is a polite insult, 'I'll come back when I damn well please').
Pendigestory interludicule = a light late afternoon tea (observed by upper classes)
Velocitous = taking pleasure in speed
Extramurallisation = to function outside, or more a euphemism for doing something outside set boundaries, (probably in context here as an alternative word for going outside)
Not a native speaker of English, I see. Perhaps you'd better leave these things to those of us who are.
@@DieFlabbergast Ihr unnötig sarkastischer Kommentar sagt mehr über denbetrunkenen Zustand Ihres Charakters aus als über mich.
Are you sure about all of those?
Contrafibularity is a combination of contra, meaning "against" and fibula, one of the bones in the lower leg.
The joke here is that Blackadder is using a word which effectively means 'pulling your leg", English vernacular for joking.
