culottic[edit]

...has occasionally been seen as a nonce word, e.g. in Carlyle ("All Sansculottic things are passing away, all things are becoming Culottic" — i.e. respectable rather than revolutionary) and Collier's magazine volume 109 ("Nowadays, more and more American girls are becoming more and more culottic every day" — i.e. wearing trousers).
