umpteen

A word that usually prescribes an uncertain number of occurances. This is usually said in the reference of the numbers 13-19 (hence the 'teen'), but it can be in reference to any number within reason.

Hence 'umteenth'

I got umpteen calls from this pranker yesterday.

I dyed my hair for the umpteenth time today.
