Talk:Boanthropy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I cannot find any reference to "Boanthropy" in any reputable sources online. I'm beginning to think it's just one of these 'facts' that gets passed along without checking. Has anyone seen it written in an actual reference book?

I came across the word "Boanthropy" when it was given in The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. I was unsure if this was a real word or not; some of the words given in the show are fictitious. The internet is now somewhat glutted by excerpts from this Wikipedia page, but I think I've found an independent citation. --DavidK93 13:10, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
