Your Definition
To remove a portion from a word or sequence of words, leaving the before and after, to make a word. You can remove any portion as long as a beginning and end remains, but generally the beginning part is just the first consonant cluster and a good portion of the last word is used for the end. All words besides the first and last in a sequence of words creating a caplication are discarded. The word is autological—it comes from the caplication of "cap applicator" to "caplicator", which was originally used at 1:39 in the YouTube video "Wow! I'm hungry!" by DaThings. It differs from portmanteau because not all [portmanteaus] are caplications ([portmanteaus] can blend the words however they like), and not all caplications are [portmanteaus] (caplications often do not attempt to create any new meaning, whereas a portmanteau has to have a meaning blended from the words that made it). That said, most portmanteaus are caplications.
