The list can be checked for other forms of a word: for Windows use Ctrl+F or Edit/Find in This Page and begin typing the word you'd like to submit to the list.  For example, "zing" will highlight amazing, zingers, zing and zingaras.

Oops! Sorry about that, Midnite! How about this one? 

Z is for zappy - lively; entertaining. Pansy Faye's performance of "I Wanna Dance For You" could certainly be considered zappy.

A is for apparition - there were many apparitions on Dark Shadows. The one that comes to mind now is from some episodes I watched recently, when Barnabas' hand appeared to Trask in the 1795 storyline. Of course, many ghosts appeared on DS, as well. 

I'm surprised this word hasn't been used yet! Maybe it's because it's a hard word to spell. It took a while for me to find it, because I was misspelling it!
