	I sometimes make my own words. Are they okay to use, or is that not proper English; to speak my own words? Please tell me, I would appreciate it.

	Well, I'm going to leave. Please Private Message me your answer. ^^

	Well, I don't beleive that is propper grammar. But if it's your "thing" to make up words go ahead. Just make sure you realize to put in apostrophies if needed.

	As long as your recipient can understand said words, yes.

	Technically, I don't think you're suppose to make your own words up, unless it is going to be a proper noun used commonly, but in writing you can mark it so that it is correct or something. I don't know, made up words never really bother me.. I wouldn't go using it in a formal paper or speech though, regardless.
