| Will you take it as an answer: "To quone" is a neologism first coined in "The Stakeout" episode of the television series "Seinfeld", "quone" was a word used by Mrs. Seinfeld in a Scrabble game. It was found by Jerry to not be a real word, but Kramer insists that it means "to sedate". |

Hi,
here is the script of the scene:
Jerry: "Quone"? Helen: ...30...31... Jerry: "Quone"? No, I'm afraid that I'm going to have to challenge that. Helen: ...32... Kramer: No, you don't have to challenge that. That's a word. That's a definite word. Jerry: I am challenging... Kramer: Quone: to quone something. Jerry: Uh-huh... Helen: I'm not playing with you anymore... Morty: Quone's not a word... Jerry: No good. Sorry. There it is. Get it off... Helen: Why did you make me put that down? Kramer: Nah, we need a medical dictionary! If a patient gets difficult, you quone him...
Seinfeld is famous for its neologisms such as "yada, yada, yada", "Sperminator", "idiot-mobile" and "anti-dentite".
Btw, Elaine was quoned when she asked her doctor questions he didn't want to answer. Her doctor wrote in her medical record "Difficult".
