Enginerd (noun)
rhymes with heard
Definition: An engineer, usually a smart one.
Example: "Those enginerds are really dorks!"
Attested: I first heard this word uttered by a friend early in the year.
Etymology: This word is formed by combining the words "engineer" and
"nerd." I think it was formed to stereotype many engineers as hard workers
that get good grades, but don't go out much and have fun. Although all
engineers aren't really like this, I have found that there are a few prime
example of enginerds out there.

Attested: I first encountered this word when i went into a Cornell Dining Hall
Example: "I'm sorry, you can only have one entree."
Etymology: This word arose because the food they were serving in the dining halls were technically entrees. However, the way they served the food gave the word a whole new meaning as defined above.
