I read that word in a Newspaper but forgot about it.
I was told it's called procrastinate / tion by an English teacher but it means different.

Hi WSBlue, I don't think there is a word for it in English, therefore our word is whatever your word is in whatever language.
That's how English works, we borrow heavily from mainly Latin and French, but from any language that has a word we don't.
So you tell us please?
What is "our" word for it?

........can't think of what it may be, I've asked a few people.
