I think Pedant's corner is misnamed

[Oakmaiden]

It is, after all, hardly a corner.

Dammit dammit dammit. raises

It’s Pedants’ Corner not Pedant’s Corner.

Lovely.

You see, in my mind, I am the only pedant who counts. Therefore it is the corner (or otherwise) of a single pedant.

Me.

Pedant's corner.

Anyway, what I really wanted to ask was: if something is adorned with objects that look like, but are not, nipples, what would be your preferred adjective?

I prefer nipplesque, while my husband is in favour of the more pedestrian nipply. I believe it would only be nipply if the things adorning it were indeed nipples, and not merely things that look like nipples.

Also - look - a kitten! (Did that distract you from my disastrous opening post?)

The correct word would be nippled but I would suggest nippular and nipplaceous could be alternatives.

What kitten?

I'm all in favour of renaming it Pedants' Paradise. Or SPAG Central. Or maybe Grammar Clamour.

Quite right - why should pedants be forced to stand in the corner?

Nobody puts pedants in a corner. Whether they carried a watermelon or not.

Another forum I've seen has a "pedants' and nit-pickers' corner", which has hosted discussion about the distinctions between pedantry and nit-picking.

Something covered with nipple-like forms is correctly called 'papillate', while something which is nipple shaped is called 'papilliform'. Both words are derived from the Latin word for nipple, 'papilla'.

What was the nippled, nipply, nipplesque, or papillate object that you wanted to describe?

Benippled - like bejewelled?
