Words Invented by Shakespeare by joel laumans

piksels � Words Invented by Shakespeare by joel laumans: "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:
Accused
Addiction
Advertising
Amazement
Arouse
Assassination
Bandit
Bedroom"
