Lexophilia


Lexophilia - Although not in the dictionary, it is reported that "Lexophile" describes a person who loves sentences such as, "You can tune a piano, but you can't tuna fish," and, "To write with a broken pencil is pointless.”
An annual competition is held by the 'New York Times' to see who can create the best original lexophile.
