Amendum

n. a combination of the word amend meaning to add or subtract and the word addendum meaning an addition, usually at the end.
Clearly the word amendum can be used to describe the subtraction of an addition--the cumulative effect being nothing. Therefore amendum does not have any meaning at all.

Unless, of course, you speak Abiese.

Note: If Amanda subtracted an addition, it could be rightfully called an Amandum, but this would always require proper capitalization.

could you use that in a sentence, if you are going to act as your own dictionary, you need a pronunciation key and also an example of how to use it in a sentence. I love you!

See Abi's blog for use of the word amendum in a sentence. Clearly, it is a noun. Thanks for caring.
