Juxtapose drives me nuts. Can't get through a class without hearing it a couple dozen times.

And that reminded me of a word my one prof was using every other sentence one class: conculcating.

I looked it up, and it means to trample underfoot according to this dictionary. I don't think he was asking us what Dickens was trampling under the Victorians. Am I maybe remembering the word wrong? Is there something else that sounds like that? Or is he just getting his word of the day wrong?
