Words Invented by Shakespeare

Today while browsing the ever so beautiful interwebs, I came across something interesting about Shakespeare. Turns out that our second favourite William (after the one and only William Gates of course) invented over 1700 of the words we use commonly use, by simply turning nouns into verbs, adjectives into verbs, and so forth..

Here is a very small list of words he invented:

1. Accused
2. Addiction
3. Advertising
4. Amazement
5. Arouse
6. Assassination
7. Bandit
8. Bedroom
9. Beached
10. Blanket
11. Bump
12. Cater
13. Champion
14. Countless
15. Epileptic
16. Fixture
17. Flawed
18. Generous
19. Hint
20. Lonely
21. Mimic
22. Negotiate
23. Obscene
24. Premeditated
25. Rant
26. Summit
27. Torture
