Word: overegg Part of Speech: verb Etymology: From over- (prefix meaning ‘excessive; excessively’) + egg, from the phrase over-egg the pudding, a reference to adding too many eggs to a pudding and thereby ruining it. Pronunciation: /ˌəʊvəɹˈɛɡ/, /ˌoʊvəɹˈɛɡ/ 1. Chiefly in over-egg the pudding: to spoil (something) by exaggerating it, or an aspect of it; to overdo.
