Re: Word Creation

Do we have a conlanging word that means specifically "to create a word and
place it in the lexicon?" I always feel that the word "create" falls short
as in the case of my main conglang opus right now, I have parent language to
work with. Perhaps the definition may have to even be specific to a priori
and a posteriori languages. The pharse "make up" feels to  general as one
"makes up" many different things. If the word does not exist, what
suggestions do you have?

I feel that something akin to "lexicate" may work.

Ideas, suggestions??
