bewail and bemoan

I'm going to blog more, really, promise, now that I have two weeks away from school.

(And why not just "wail and moan?" Because, dear reader, English lets you.)*

Go here or here or here or here or here for thought-provocation.



*Both original. It's not so impossible after all.

What about "rewail" and "remoan"? Or I'm just reaching for too many stars?

My wife would probably tell me it's time to de-wail and de-moan. We can keep this going 'til we run out of consonants.

Or prefixes.
Oh!
Prewail and premoan!
