I think skoonspruit (forgot the spelling) is the main one that still stuck in casual use decades later for my family.

It's the rare fountain thing a saliva gland makes eg when yawning.

There was another one for a group of cars all doing exactly the speed limit because one of them is a police car. I was better at remembering the definitions than the actual words.

You forgot the last one because of how improbable it is for a police car to drive at the speed limit..

When I was growing up everyone called that a "gleek". Though usually it only came up when people did it intentionally.
