Sentences for "cockamamie "
] Pace Webster's Third [XV,3], but including the word cockamamie in a Yiddish lexicon is questionable, as is the definition given.
As we grew older we came to realize that cockamamie was merely a child's distortion of decalcomania .
This craze became known as décalcomanie, from décalc- (from décalquer `transfer a tracing' + - o - + manie `mania,' whence we get decalcomania ( decal for short for the transfers), and the adjective cockamamie some say echoes the sense of florid but superficial embellishment.
