Etymology of the Month is a series where we delve into the forgotten corners of language, where words have been hiding in plain sight, waiting to be uncovered.
This month, our word of the month is... "Grogglegook" (pronounced "groh-gleg-gook") - A term used by the infamous "Bureaucrats" of old to describe a particularly convoluted form of jargon.
Etymology of the Month is brought to you by the Bureaucratic Institute of Obscurity (BIoO) - a think tank dedicated to exploring the uncharted territories of obscure words and phrases.
