Yes, Frindle is indeed a word. It originated from the children’s novel Frindle by Andrew Clements. In the book, a young boy named Nick Allen invents the word “frindle” to mean a pen. The story follows how the word gains popularity and eventually becomes a part of the English language.
The novel not only entertains but also explores the power of language and how new words can be created and accepted. While “frindle” started as a fictional term, it has since been used in real-life contexts, demonstrating how literature can influence language.
