I was wondering...
There is no word for the feeling of pain you get in your teeth when somebody scratches their nails on the wall or on a blackboard or something equally irritating.
In Maltese we have a word 'tiddaras' which literally translated means molarize (molars are the teeth which are at the back thus molarize).
I asked my Canadian friends if there was a word for this feeling but they could not find any word.
So people, start using the new word
Molarize
