        It's interesting to me that people on the Internet have invented a new word:  ellies, for elephants.

I don't know if the word "ellie" is in the dictionary yet.

But whether it is in the dictionary or not, new words and new forms of words come into use because people say them; language evolves.

        I remember in the 1970s it was in the News that in the new dictionary there was going to be the word (or the expression) 

"Archie Bunker-ism"

If someone made a certain kind of remark, it could be identified as an 

Archie Bunker-ism.
