Definition
Fine, acceptable, legitimate (used humorously). Originally a fictional word that has entered informal usage.
Etymology
Coined by The Simpsons writer David X. Cohen in the 1996 episode 'Lisa the Iconoclast.' A teacher says a made-up word is 'a perfectly cromulent word,' satirizing how language absorbs nonsense.
Kelly Says
The Simpsons INVENTED this word as a joke about fake words... and then it became a REAL word that people actually use! A fake word became cromulent! This is the most meta thing language has ever done! 📺🤯
