The word "'" or to my ear "verkakte" - same pronunciation, Germanic language spelling, never gets old to me, since it is simultaneously (as someone with a little 2nd language Afrikaans)

a) Not a word, not taught to anyone, not listed, not used (in Afrikaans).

b) Obviously a word, with obvious meaning; given the construction "ver-noun-te" parallels what in English would be "en-noun-ed"

3) meaning is similar to from @doctorow
