We asked on twitter what is the collective noun for the four judges deliberating over the fate of the four shortlisted artists. In return we will be rewarding the best suggestion with a very highly sought after present...more of that later!
So far we have a:
- deliberation
- contemplation
- bickering
- clout
- conspiracy
- nudge
- clutch
- grudge
- smudge
- privilege
- jilt
- jigger
- jostle
- cabal
- northernry
- artery
- prizery
- anthology
- crew
- imagination
- communication
- expression.
- subjection.
- installation
- blot
- scribble
- vicissitude
- delusion of judges
- confusion . .
- colloquy
Most of these aren't collective nouns! Grammatical pedantry aside, I like jostle.
ReplyDeletePerhaps you could couple an adjective derived from one of the nouns with another noun, like "delusioned conspiracy" or "bickering northernry"...
