Dog-Latin. Pretended or mongrel Latin. An excellent example is Stevens' definition of a kitchen:
As the law classically expresses it, a kitchen is "camera necessaria pro usus cookare; cum saucepannis, stewpannis, scullero, dressero, coalholo, stovis, smoak-jacko; pro roastandum, boilandum, fryandum, et plum-pudding-mixandum. . . ."—A Law Report (Daniel v. Dishclout).
