<h1>Ethnocology</h1>
<p>So I was playing a word puzzle game on the <a href="ircs://chat.freenode.net/##chat">##chat</a> <a href="https://freenode.net">freenode</a> IRC channel. One of the hard words' hint was this:</p>
<blockquote>study of origins of races or ethnic groups</blockquote>
<p>So I answered ethnocology. Obviously it's wrong, the right answer was <em><a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ethnogeny">ethnogeny</a></em>. But I wondered why <em>ethnocology</em> isn't a real word. So as a joke, a player named sappheiros invented the following definition:</p>
<blockquote>the study of how into-their-race people present themselves as</blockquote>
<p>It was funny. But hey, it could work!</p>
