portmanteau
- 1584, from M.Fr. portemanteau "traveling bag," originally "court official who carried a prince's mantle," from porte, imperative of porter "to carry" + manteau "cloak." Portmanteau word "word blending the sound of two different words," is 1882, coined by Lewis Carroll for the sort of words he invented for "Jabberwocky."
