"Resembling an ogre", used once in Finnegans Wake which looks like a nonsense passage anyway. Ioaxxere (talk) 21:31, 21 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

It's not nonsense, just deliberately obscure like the rest of Finnegans Wake, but I'm surprised this made it to WOTD given that the well-known work CFI criterion was removed two years before. It doesn't look like this one has been used outside of Joyce (and you'd probably write ogrey if you were recoining it now anyway). —Al-Muqanna المقنع (talk) 22:28, 21 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
