'll be posting ZALOPs here later :-). There are variations on ZALOP in the discussions - for example ZALOPA - The verb of ZALOP which involves waving your arms around, a no that people think is a yes, ZALOPY which is the positive gender of ZALOP - - that word even has a fragrance, When it causes people to sneeze its part of the performance score :-)) - we're hoping someone will get one of these alleged sneezes on camera/video to add to the video's - have an EXCELLENT Friday everyone :-) XX

Yes I must say I am seriously inclined to use it as a swear word and so I shall!

ZALOP also works well when someone else has left a mess at the sink! And nobody complains about 'inappropriate language'.

MailArt Martha, you can use ZALOP to say "no". Others will use it in other ways. It has "no meaning: nix, nada, nothing...τίποτε!) It is a Fluxus Word that Ruud painted on an envelope to Cheryl and now it has advanced to cult level! For me, it has become sandpo...cut from red sandpaper ;-)
