['ch]
Usage
This prefix is used by Chapinos, those who live in Chapin or are affiliated with Chapin. It is most often added to nouns, and is much less likely to be attached to a verb or an adjective.
Definition
Added to any word or noun, this prefix denotes a connection with Chapin or Chapin affiliated events.
Example Sentence
Are you going to Chormal? (Chapin Formal Dance)
Did you get your chug? (Chapin Mug)
We need the War Room for the Chexec meeting. (Chapin Executive Board)
Etymology
Like many portmanteau words, the Ch- prefix comes from splicing the first syllable sound of Chapin with the ending syllable sound of whatever the Chapin affiliated word happens to be.
