I think the phrase "congratuwelldone" should be added to this list. Made famous by David Walliams on "The big fat quiz of the year" 2006, it's fairly self explanitory - a cross between congratulations and well done You were great - congratuwelldone! Lets celebrate. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=congratuwelldone

There's one more blend for letter F: "freakonomics" Citation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freakonomics

"Blends" edit
Why is it called "blends"? "Portmanteaus" sounds more scholarly. "Category:English blends" makes it sounds like a list of tea or coffee drinks.
- Normal users may find everyday English easier than "scholarly" words. Equinox ◑ 10:07, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
