While chatting with a friend from my days as a newbie in Paris, or maybe was I to be considered as a tourist still at that time. In any case, in the middle of a sentence he would say "Peachy", later on explaining it means "Great"...
Believing this to be an official English expression I asked him what the opposite would be. It turned out he had made it up himself, and since he could think of any fruit that he didn't like, I decided in his place that the opposite for Peachy would be Plummy (referring to dried plums).
I'm very proud of myself, having distributing to enlarge the English language. Of course you can also use derivates from Plummy in various ways; "to Plum" (verb), "to be a Plum", Plummingly...
.. and I should just probably stop conjugate my new word and get started with today's Korean lesson.^^
