Here lies the Glossary of Obscure Terms, a Glossary for CA terms that have not yet fully established themselves in the minds of CAenthusiasts. This glossary contains words that may become words, and really weird terms.
These words come from the create your own terminology thread and myself.

- Cloud: An explosing pattern that explodes chaotically and not into a certain shape.
- Corderoid: Any spaceship based off of a puffer or unstable moving pattern.
D
E
- Essel(m): A pattern or rule that makes lots of still lives.
- Emu: A spaceship that creates sparks similar to that of other spaceships.
F
G
H
- Hiver: A spaceship that pushes hives. Like a Loafer, but with hives.
I

L
- Licking: An eating reaction that does not destroy either objects as in Unix
