dream_word
epitome of incomprehensibility "Biread" means a reading - book, article - that connects to another reading.

Except I'm making a crossword puzzle clue for it, so I recruit cheesy_ideas for defining it, such as "A book that likes both boy books and girl books."

Except my dream mind didn't consider the non-binary books. In German, books are always non-binary: das Buch, not der Buch or die Buch.

e_o_i In a long-ago dream, an elderly woman who was sitting in bed and recalling her homeland. This was supposed to be Russia. Maybe. But I was her and the bed looked an awful lot like mine.

There had been some kind of war in the 1960s or 70s, and she/I thought about it with a couple of "Russian" words: "kashvas" were bad memories and "otchkes" were objects that recalled memories, mostly good ones.

I don't have any explanation for the first, but the second sounded like the word for glasses in A_Clockwork_Orange (so, Russian-derived) and also something like tchotchkes (doodads in Yiddish).

e_o_i And, from ten years ago, a_word_that_isn't_a_word
and
la_tarte_est_niee.

Either by chance, or through the weirdness of memory, my dream mind gave me a French word that my waking mind didn't know (nier, to deny).
