extra ordinary

I'm thinking (thin king) that taking apart compound words shouldn't count for this thread.

So manslaughter from the OP isn't a compound word? Besides extraordinary isn't even a compound word. That wouldn't make any sense now, would it?

Man+Slaughter is the compound word, Mans+laughter isn't.

Extra: beyond or more than what is usual, expected, or necessary
Ordinary: customary; usual; normal

Thus, extraordinary is beyond normal. I think you are interpreting extra in the word as making the word mean "more ordinary" which is possible, but the word extra has multiple meanings.

Anyway man, lighten up. You act like he called you are moron or something.
