Last year, I heard from other English speakers about the katakana verb レリゴる.
It's supposed to be a verb related to the movie
[Frozen](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frozen_%282013_film%29)
([アナと雪の女王](http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%82%A2%E3%83%8A%E3%81%A8%E9%9B%AA%E3%81%AE%E5%A5%B3%E7%8E%8B)).

Is the verb generally understood by Japanese speakers? I tried searching
weblio and jisho.org for レリゴる, レリゴ, or レリゴー, but couldn't get any relevant
matches. Also, I tried doing a google search for レリゴる and the matches I got
didn't seem to include the verb.

Also, what does it mean? Does it mean [to watch
Frozen](https://twitter.com/akokitamura/status/468207904827252736) ([link to

tweet](https://twitter.com/miusakamoto/status/468001394322976768)), or to
[sing "Let It Go"](https://twitter.com/adamliaw/status/539932019057098753)?

question
meaning loanwords
Is レリゴる likely to be understood, and what does it mean?
Jokingly coining such verb using a title/character of a movie/anime/book is
not uncommon among native speakers, but many of them are one-time jokes which
will be forgotten soon. Only a few of them (including
[マミる](http://dic.pixiv.net/a/%E3%83%9E%E3%83%9F%E3%82%8B) = to have one's head
mutilated; to die a tragic death) will be widely recognized and gain specific
definitions.

I don't think the verb レリゴる itself caught on last year. So the actual meaning
would purely depend on the context. I think people _may_ use it at least in
three ways:

>   * （カラオケで）「何歌う？」「レリゴっちゃう？」 = To sing _Let it Go_
>   * （映画館の前で）「何観ようか？」「もう1回、レリゴるとか？」 = To watch _Frozen_
>   * 「まだ気にしてるの？ レリゴっちゃいなよ！」 = To let it go, to forget
>

EDIT: Please note that these are more like possible jokes rather than normal
conversations.
