I've been racking my brain for the last few days trying to think up some words that only pop up around Christmastime so that I can build a blog post around them. Caroling and wassailing came to mind, and I wrote a bit about them over at Copyediting.com.
Turns out that, in many cases, the only real difference between caroling and wassailing is how much alcohol the revelers imbibe.
But I still seem to be stuck. What other seasonal words am I forgetting? What Christmas words make you stop and think?
