@@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).

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.

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)
