G4 TV Who’s Who of YouTube

That was an awesome segment :!: I think they did a super job and I bet you get a ton of subscribers tomorrow. Did you really shot a TV pilot? What is the name of the show and when will it air? Keep up the great work and I look forward to seeing you on many more TV programs… And of course in many many more YouTube videos.

That was great! (even though I was hoping they were going to have you on the show live to interview you)

Ditto with JD’s comment… please let us know when and where your TV pilot will be seen, and when you book comes out.

Hmmm, by the way… what ever happened with that vote on the right that’s been going on for months now? I think the calendar has won out pretty handily, don’t you? When can I get my hands on my teacher’s calendar? ( Although, I wouldn’t complain if you make everything on the list either! :)

BTW Marina – Did they come up with “concupiscent” on their own, or did you help them out with that one. In either case, they hit the nail on the head in using it to describe you.

Marina,
Congratulations!
When you started all of this did you dream that it would come to this and more?
Thank you for YOU and your efforts.
Dream on and go for it.
Warren

:lol: That was so cool!!!! Your crazy tongue really got me looking!!! So sexy, I love it! Makes me thirsty!!!!!! :smile:

Amazing Marina, you’ve come a long way! You are a role model, you’re a hard worker! :)

They came up with it! That’s awesome that they did :-)

The pilot was for Current TV. They’re still editing it.. etc.. so I don’t know what’s going to happen with it yet.

Hey Kiddo super Vid, jazzy content .My only real concern Marina {because I truly enjoy all your efforts} is that fame & fortune will force you to retire as our class instructor….I hope you’ll stay come Hell or high water cause you are very enjoyable—–[an I still believe you'd make one fantastic 007 James bond girl]

P.S. I don’t believe that a James Bond flick would steal you away from us forever. This is all said in jest, yet I think it’s possible with your talent ,accent, fine looks and drive your future is going to be extremely pleasent. TC&you’ll go far I,m sure==========

buzzword,

I’m asking this because you’re an anthropologist.
there’s a book by michel foucault, “abnormal”. kinda hard to summarize its content. it’s about what people or societies considered abnormal throughout history, what was considered “monsters”, and how the view or that group changed over time. it’s also about how the legal or judicial point of view, along with the medical, clerical, and psychological one changed, or evolved. how treatments and facilities changed. how the status of certain medical conditions changed.
anyway, from time to time I get the feeling that in today’s societies, cultures or nations of the “first world” mental or stress-related deseases or disorders incredibly increase. depression, bipolar disorders, stress, you name it. I wonder if the number of people suffering from those things really increased — and if so, why –, or if this is just another change of perception. (jaeggi et. al. 1997: “psychiatry, later psychoanalysis and clinical psychology, ‘create’ the psychological disfunctions that they pretend to discover.” [my awkward translation.])

yo, marina, sorry for asking this question here; this is not an incredibly funny comment, and, as far as I can see, it doesn’t have much to do with language. :/

I really like this video because I remember being one of your first few subscribers and now your this big internet star. You deserve all the success because philology and teaching are your passion. What is this book going to be like a biography or dictionary ? :mrgreen:

Dear Teacher

It’s said that any publicity is good publicity, but this was very complimentary which is great. You deserve every good word.

jsmooth.. it will be a fun book with fun word origins! :eek:

This was Great wasn’t it???Im so glad that you are doing so well.
be shore to let us know when your TV show come on ,i dont want to mis that…Bye Bye Marina

Dear Teacher,

I’m sitting back, relaxing, having a beer and enjoying each of your spots! You’re simply amazing and I eagerly wait for your latest episodes every week. Keep up the awesome work!! :grin:

I think this is a wonderful tribute to you. I sincerely enjoy learning from and with you. And yes you do keep this students attention.

Congrats Marina….

I’m glad you’re getting the recognition you deserve, and I hope you stay happy and inspired through it all! :smile:

Hey… I was thinking there might be an easier way to help you keep track of everyone’s word requests. Maybe a form outside of the comments that lists the words, who requested them and how many times each word is requested. If I see a plug in in my travels I’ll post another comment.

Rock on!

I think the U.S. should up the quota for more Russian immigres.

Whens the book coming out? I want to get it as soon as the store opens!

I’m going to respond to this in parts. The concept of the monster or abnormal seems to be an emergent characteristic of human society. Human societies have developed some diverse cultural practices to survive. However there are universal characteristics and the recognition of the abnormal is one of them. This indicates that it is imperative to basic human survival in some way. Whether or not those that are recognized as abnormal are actually a threat or not is irrelevant to evolutionary processes. Over the course of human evolution it has been a statistical advantage to survival to assume they are a threat. Recognition of the abnormal is a biological and social instinct and a result of evolutionary processes, ignorant of any ethical principals. It is a trait that is here to stay as it is likely in our genes, functioning within the individual and emergent in culture. I like foucault although some of his methods and data are questionable.

well, will I get the other parts too? :DD

Don’t worry, we are really happy here!

you’re being watched!

This instinct to recognize the abnormal is, I argue, a universal characteristic of human society. However the criteria for abnormal or a modal personality is culturally relative and so to the social response. Each culture develops it’s own institutions and social organizations to efficiently identify and manage abnormal groupings. Mental disorders are apparent in all cultures. Yet characteristics of mental disorders vary from one culture to another. Further a mental disorder may not be considered abnormal if it is within a society’s concept of a modal personality. Psychology and associated fields are authoritative institutions guiding Western society’s conceptions of mental disorder. I would argue that these institutions in fulfilling their social responsibilities are ignoring the relative nature of the abnormal and mental disorders. To admit that human society and behavior is so relative would impair a society’s ability to recognize the abnormal. This limitation or blinding would result in social confusion, anxiety and paranoia. Instead I think that psychology mechanically identifies mental disorders without considering the potential that there is no limit to the varieties of human behavior and the relative nature of modal personalities, mental disorder and the abnormal. This I believe is one reason you recognize an increase in mental disorders. I am not arguing in an absolute sense that mental disorders cannot not have a very real physiological origin.

now I’m confused. where are we discussing this?

to be honest no offence Marina,
the videos are much better =]
unless your book has pictures then thats different haha
its your great smile and legs =]

I’m tempted … I’m soooo tempted …

uuilliam, it’s ONLY going to be pictures… with very few words.. like a kid’s book but not for kids! So don’t worry! :razz:

trgoblin, I was going to do that.. but then I thought the open dialog in the comments was better… people can request a word and others can follow up. I can search the comments instantly in the backend.

If I did a form it would have to output the requests so that everyone could see how many times a word has been requested.. hmm.. maybe it’s a polling type thing… must investigate!

pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff.

why doesn’t my comment show up in the “recent comments” column? :/

no, wait, it doesn’t show up at all. :((

Yes… the dialogue is great. I wanted to answer a couple, but didn’t want to spoil a future lesson for you.

I’m a problem solver and an idea person, and I was thinking it would be hard for me to keep track of all these word requests; I was also thinking ahead to a point where you might have thousands of requests after each lesson.

The polling might help you organize it, but then again, you might get a lot of requests for a word that you have no interest in doing. Seems like staying inspired and creative is what’s most important and this method is working for you. My unsolicited ideas should also come with a grain of salt. :smile:

I disagree, the U.S. has already increased it’s quota for the extraordinary rendition of foreign nationals to secret prisons.

According to U.S. foreign policy if you are happy where you are then you must have something against the U.S. If you have something against the U.S. then you are considered a security threat and likely terrorist. Accordingly the U.S. can kidnap you and hold you in a secret prison. If you do not like where you live and you recognize that the U.S. is the best place to live then you are not a threat. However the U.S. doesn’t want you here anyway because you talk funny. Although if you are abducted you may end up in the secret prison in Vice President Dick Cheney’s basement. The downside is that although you will reside in the U.S. you will not enjoy any rights and you have to eat Mrs. Cheney’s cooking, which is banned under the Geneva Conventions. But the U.S. ignores that anyway.

A philology book with few words and lots of pictures? Then again, if a picture is worth a thousand words…

New to your site and just had to say hello. :wink: Really think your hott and the word stuff is really sexy. Your accent is so hot it makes me consider trip to Russia to meet other lovely smart educated girls with that beautiful accent.
I’ll start making classes and look forward too learning some cool stuff from your site.
BOL and good health to ya.

Buzzward,
I’d love to argue with you, but I don’t think this is a suitable venue.
Do you have a forum or website that we can hash this topic to pieces?

Hitman,
I didn’t mean to imply that the entire population of Russia wasn’t completely satisfied, if not completely happy, living in Russia. My comment was just my way of complimenting Marina for being absolutely fabulous.

:lol: Way to go, Marina! That was really nice. As a long time subscriber, it’s great to see you reach the ‘Big Time’!!!

Keep up the great videos and I promise to keep watching and pass your notes on to my friends so that they will watch too.

BTW – Are you married or ‘Taken’? :roll: You are SO CUTE!!!! I wish you success in a TV show, if you get the chance! :wink:

just being sarcastic, no interest in arguing.

I love the show and am glad I found it through Attack of the Show.

Thanks for the post on your site master1228 :-)

:cool:

Hey Marina :)

This sounds a bit goofy or intimidating what i am going say but I wondered for a very very Long long time what the Hell means FUCK actually where does this created so called dirty, nasty, word as a society we implemented come from and why became it a very rude word?

Can you give me a serious answer of for this I couldn’t get my hands on it :( :???:

Ernest

Pretty cool web site!!

it’s legal Mumbo Jumbo. and Mumbo Jumbo would be another great word for Marina

Edit: I just looked this up and it;’s actually incorrect. So I sit corrected by myself.

I think I got an email about this a while ago, it had stuff like the origin for OK and things like that but I can’t remember exactly, I think it was something like Fornicate Under C?? of the King, it was some sort of permission by the king to have intercourse :?: :shock: By the way if memory serves me right Ok meant zero killed in one of the wars (don’t remember which one, sorry but I’m older than most of you guys I bet 41 :oops: ).

:smile:

Ok it sounds like the answer :)

Thanks mate

Woow!! I love you :oops:

hey maria love your lessons

love you xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Fantastic Marina , your stardom is on the horizon and I think you will be a household name (meaning known by just about everyone :) ).
Best wished for you , you most lovable woman.
You are so fun to know….

oxoxxox Luv, E…

I LOVE YOU MARINA….. !!!!! :shock:

LOVE YOU SO MUCHH !!!!! MI DEAR PROFESORA

WHAT’S YOUR PARENTS NAMES ???? DO YOU HAVE CHILDRENS ??? WHO IS YOUR HUSBAND :)…ARE YOU MARRIED ??? :D

Hola Marina, todos amamos tus lecciones

Hi!
It looks prety cool – the website, your channel and… other)) As genius sad: “Ð’ России рождаются самые прекрасные девушки”))
I study Russian language for a very long time, so I have few interesting questions for you. It would be great if you find some words that came to american english from russian language??

Sorry for my bad english – it is hard for japanese to study english and russian at the same time )))

Somehow I had missed the bit about Marina being concupiscent. I always thought she said, “your TRUSTY Hotforwords” but now I learn that it’s LUSTY as well as BUSTY.
I think they were probably using the word incorrectly, meaning to imply that Marina makes her students lusty and not that she is a wanton woman.
Shouln’t they have said Marina is concupiscible?

Buzzword,
Is there any universal concept of normality and abnormality?
Within a particular society, normality (or maybe mediocrity or averageness) would be defined by the highest point of a Gaussian curve of population distribution.
On each side of the graph would be varying degrees of abnormality increasing as you get further from the normal line, with genius on the one side and sub-normality (for want of a more politically “correct” term) on the other side.
Without abnormality, surely we would all still be living in caves; there would have been no inventions, no Art, no science, no America even. :shock: Is anyone posting on Marinas web site normal?
People with dreams or unusual talents have always been ridiculed at best or burned at the stake at worst.
I’m not sure where my ramblings are taking me here unless it’s just my way of summarizing what you have written above.
Any comments?

Dear Teacher,
You’re sexy enough to drive a man bizerk. Or is it berzirk? I don’t know but the word is sort of strange is it not? I was given an explanation once of its orgins having something to do with butt-naked norsemen running wild, high on mushrooms. I thought of your word mystery solving prowess and would like you to investigate. Where does bizerk (crazy) come from and did a bunch of norsemen do some magic mushroom and tear up the town in assless chaps? Please enlighten all of us.

Marina you are truly too Hot For Words please keep the lessions coming. I enjoy all you lessions.

Thanks

Marina, you are delightfully borderline brazen, and very well-equipped for it.

As a gift, here’s a little memory tool for those of your students at a loss to handle “it”:

“He’s, she’s, it’s;
His, hers, its”

6 words to rid the Web and World of one of their most irritating grammar goofs!

None of the above, lowbrow! It’s “berserk”.

BTW, there’s a long series of excellent sci-fi novels and stories by Fred Saberhagen about “Berserkers”, which are war robots invented far away and long ago and now running wild trying to eliminate all “badlife” in the Universe (that’s us), in part by relying on suck-up gutless collaborators called “goodlife” (that’s Democrats).

Hey, Marina u have any help by other people or u make all this by yr self sry for my English my teacher :wink:
Μου αρέσεις = я люблю вы :oops:

Very good website. Are you asked any questions about yourself and how you came to start this type of website up?
Who is the brains behind it?

А сиськи у тебя настоящие? :?: :grin:

You should really make an appearance on Attack of The Show Marina. I’m pretty sure they would let you if they let other women they introduce on their segments on. Plus, their studio is in L.A! (Along with everything else in this world)

Go For It!

Teacher! Why has my first name been used for implications other than just a name? “Rogering” in the UK means one thing… “Roger That” spoken from person to person or just “Roger” spoken over communications airways in the US and abroad means something else! Please, oh beutiful for spacious brain above your mountains majesty… can you help clear this up for me. I’m 52 and have never known for sure. Thank you, Roger

Marina is perfect! *_* :grin:

Privyet maya padruga Marina,
Wishing you would go on world tour.
“Hot for Words World Tour”

……I have seen Marina previously but had not visited her website til’ recently. I love her lessons and all the special effects/editing in the videos. Really what attracts me to watching her or listening to her is her beautiful accent, it’s just so darn HOT! Not to mention her naturally and healthy looking body. I think I’m in love with her….ahhh

Concubescent eh?

Hey marina just wanna let you know that you bring
Excitement into reading laters…sexy!

marina your so hot i love you so much

Awesome! Congrats! Intelligence is sexy!

That was an excellent introduction of Marina and her work. They were obviously smitten by someone who can make philology so enjoyable, and who so obviously enjoys herself doing it. The fact that Marina is operating in a foreign language makes her all the more amazing. The special effects that Marina inserts throughout her sessions are amazing, and add much to the presentations. You Tube has found a treasure here! – Cassowary

That’s clever – thank you! Cassowary

First lesson: it’s not “lessions”. There are such things as “lesions”, though, which are damaged tissue, especially brain tissue. Have yours checked out immediately!

http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=concupiscent

My life would be complete if you were mine. You can be as sexy as you want to be.

Kevin

lolop: nice looking cat. Have a good day :lol:

Blinded by boobs

Why don’t you go outside naked, then we can read you your rights and throw your sorry ass in jail.

Marina, you’re so busy, you need a hug…
and i’ve been too far away to give you one.
All that can change :)

Please, stalking is illegal… i submit already!!!… and will come to (you), wherever you are, a little glass of wine, a little candle and a little music. You can tell me how to act… and i’ll wear the Kermit mask again, ok?.. the last time, after you kissed me, i turned into a Prince.

Hi Marina. Love your videos. You should get the nobel prize for awesome!
Could you tell us about: [Jaywalking] because I can’t see how crossing the street illegally has anyting to do with the letter J.

Hi Marina,
You have this natural charm you act playfully with your nice accent when you say ” my dear students”. I am charmed each time.
Btw, you shoewd a few weeks ago a puppy, a “Bernese Bouvier” , i believe.
Is that your new pet? where is Gorby? Gorby is doing well?
Cheers!

Hello Mauina. Im still out here on a boat for my thirty day work trip. Ive always have wondered about the words pon pon. The coast guard use it on the radio to annouce an emergency.

Marina the coast guard use the words (pon pon) when they annouce an emergency on the radio. (where did this come from?)

Proud of you :)

I saw INTENATIONAL SEXY LADIES on G4 a few times but my mom strongly objects. I actually watched WEB SOUP the other day on G4. I did not know there was anything interesting on ATTACK OF THE SHOW until this video aobut you. got a real charge about the enraged old man in Texas who was renting handguns by the hour! I guess to shoot someone you really hate.

You are a goddess Marina keep at it : )

MARINAAAAA!! Remember …L’atome doesn’t mean Atomic bomb, it is not the Atomic Bomb, but the atom, wich is one one the smalest particles known to men. Hence the name for the small swimming suit…I think.
Come to Lisbon for a visit…Russia is to cold, and california is too out of this world. I don’t expect you to stay at mine but I would be delighted to be your guide…Loool.
Come on Krasiva Marina, Lets party like its 1999.

Nuno Xx

Not that your not welcome in my house in Lisbon, he he!
But sucsessfull as you became, you’ll probably do an Hotel.
We await you in Lisbon to teach us a bit more about words. Great beaches, great food, great nightlife, great people.
