sporalogia
Finnish
Etymology
spora (“tram”) + -logia (“-logy”)
Noun
sporalogia
- A parody of astrology, consisting of predictions based on the positions of Helsinki trams at the moment a person is born. (The gravitational pull of a tram on a person is indeed stronger than that of the largest planets because it is so much closer.)
Usage notes
- When necessary, sporalogia can be translated as "tramology" in English, but this isn't so far attestable as an English word.
