On the 4th grader's spelling list was the word "smokepipe." They are studying compound words. Now I know peacepipe and smokestack, but I have no recall of smokepipe. I'm so certain it's not in any of my dictionaries that I won't even look; maybe it's in the Urban Dictionary, or Wikipedia, but I doubt it. Another word on the list was bigboned: maybe that was hyphenated. A word, but odd for 4th grade. And I don't even want to know how the Urban Dictionary would define that one.
