synecdokie

contentious (quarrelsome)
serendipitous // serendipity (happening on fortunate discoveries when not in search of them)
resonate // resonance (sympathetic vibration)
lexicon (dictionary, or ones vocabulary)

Enjoy ... may your venture redound in a serendipitous manner, resonating with your inquiring being, fortifying your personal lexicon and thereby providing you with fifty cent words to invoke with your friends when your find yourself in a contentious mood and wanting for a way to stealthily yet imaginatively evoke your superfluous powers of verbiage to stump, argue and just have fun! A well worded tirade or diatribe makes the masses squirm!

or, synecdoche (a figure of speech in which a part is put for a whole or vice versa) ... which, in the first answer is also an AMAZING play on words and your question ... GREAT JOB! (I'm jealous!!) a made up word (which you asked for) (well, the spelling is made up), based on a real word, so for real, a synedoche IS exactly what the answerer wrote ... too too cool!!!

schwa is a cool word to me.

A schwa is the symbol (ə) used to represent an "uh" sound. You can find the symbol in a dictionary's pronunciation key. I looks like an upside-down 'e'.

Like the word "about" ---in a dictionary it would show that it's pronounced ə-bowt. Because the a in about is pronounced like an "uh".

I like the forgotten words - gruntled, dain, kempt.

If you think of what their opposite would be you should be able to understand them.
