| Latin, late 19th century |

| "Bombinate" is a verb meaning "buzz or hum," but it's mostly used in its adjective form, "bombinating," as in, "The wasp's nest gave off a bombinating alarm." From medieval Latin, the word "bombinare" means "buzzing," but the root can be traced back to the Latin "bombus," meaning "humming."... | |
