To not be very knowledgable about pigs.

I am quite an impignorate myself and was surprised to read that
  • Professor Stanley Curtis of Penn State University has found that pigs can play joystick-controlled video games and are �capable of abstract representation.� Dr. Curtis believes that �there is much more going on in terms of thinking and observing by these pigs than we would ever have guessed.�

    I learned this word when I was a member of the 4H club and Future Farmers of America on my uncle �s farmer in Brooklyn. Impignorate is when a male pig gets a female pig pregnant. ex. The sow was impignorated by the large boar.

    No, no, no! Impignorate has absolutely nothing to do with animals porcine! It is actually a technique for ridding one �s home of evil spirits by pretending not to notice them. It is the opposite of exorcise, which is ridding an area of evil spirits by driving them out.
     
    imp: evil or mischievous spirit
    i-: not
    gnor-: know
    -ate: act on
