Word History
The Combo
nonchalant contest Nonchalontest
lend of NONCHALANT (unconcerned, studiedly casual; from French nonchalant, present participle of nonchaloir "to lack warmth, be indifferent") + CONTEST (a competition or trial of skill; from Latin contestari "to call to witness, bring an action"). Coined by Professor Sendy as the designation for a deliberately low-key, follower-milestone competition. The medial -ant of nonchalant is elided so that the word resolves cleanly into -contest.
