I concocted an excuse for missing the party.

Forty percent of the workforce are white-collar workers, most of whom have some of the most tedious and idiotic jobs ever concocted.

Tom and John concocted a plan to escape from the detention camp.

Tom concocted the whole story.

On Israeli radio, the most bizarre myths concocted by the American and European far right are treated as though they go without saying and serve as a boogyman to scare anyone who might want to push for more moderate policies.

The nature of the Germanic-Mediterranean dichotomy of English vocabulary seems still a novelty for many people, including my neighbours, the Wongs, who are multiracial from Fiji, once a British colony. The more educated an Anglophone is, the more acrolectal Mediterranean is the vocabulary. The less educated an Anglophone is, the more basilectal Germanic is the vocabulary.

He thought that using words only found in the dictionary was like living in a prison.
