Wordlover Wednesday: Sabrage


It's time for another segment of "Wait, There's a Word for That!" Where I'll share crazy words for things you never would of dreamed existed. 
So this weeks word is...


Sabrage- the act of opening a bottle with a sabre

I still can't believe there is a word for this. Do that many people really open bottles with sabres to warrant its own word?!?

  1. Gosh, there are really people who open a bottle with a sabre? It sounds really... medieval. :P There's supposed to be a word for a person who opens a bottle with their hands alone! Wait, I think I know... hulk. :P

    Thank you for the jaw-dropping word, Amanda! ;)

    1. My thought exactly! Like who does that?!? Definitely medieval. "Hulk- a person who opens a bottle with their hands." HAHA. Love it ;)

  2. I've seen this done--fancy party, fancy party trick. Had no idea there was an actual word to go along with it. I thought it was just dude-opening-bottle-with-sword.

    1. I think I would be afraid to see this done in person, or more so afraid by the fact that someone's carrying around a sword, LoL. But if it happened at a fancy party then I guess I could understand... a little.

      I'm finding out there are some crazy words out there! =) Thanks for stopping by!
