Soap Opera

Sorry everyone… lost about 143 comments there… had to delete the WHOLE POST Arghh!

Hopefully we will fine again. I’ll make up for it.. no homework tonight! In fact.. let’s party!

Dear teacher,
I take a little time to write between two hard moments with young and horrible discipuli.
I must confess I’m really happy to write my first comment on this lesson :wink:
The lesson was, as usual, (hope you re not tired to read that) very interesting. Thank you.
Don Felipe

donfelipegonzales, Did you see that you are mentioned in my last video.. the “naked” one?

Dear teacher,
Yes I did, with a great pleasure! It is always pleasant for us (your devoted student to see that you take care!
Oh! by the way, what is your sister’s name?

i think you should descuss lingerie..no perv..

Nice job! And ah, in comes the sister. ;-)

I would like to know the origin of the word ‘blaze.’

Doing homework is like partying. xD

‘Stuff’ happens, deleted or lost is better than dismissed–when it comes to comments. Hope nobody is messing with your site, it was threatened by dude who needs 2 B _________(fill in blank).

Party=YES! this site should always be a celebration of words etc…

A Cliffhanger! (Do I get extra credit for doing the homework anyway?)

As I had posted before :roll: . Word request: Splendiferous, added to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary in 1843

Noah Webster=Tres intelligent

Привет Марина

NOOOOOOO! :shock:

Hey teach: I don’t know if you were able to see my response your response to me, so I will repeat. I agree that it would be tedious to define each word in a phrase, that’s why I suggested a different section for phrases. You probably don’t have time for that, but I think it would be great. Twice as much hot for words. :wink:

yes, i would like to send 2 word requests, the words are: agoraphobia and claustrophobia. thank you very much :grin:

Be comforted that your extant body of work stands as a beacon on a hill for those whose erudition founders in the fetid miasma of cut-rate, one-size-fits-all public miseducation…

That said, let’s party!

hi marina i was wondering were the word paradox cpmes from? if you get the chance please answer, keep up the great work :smile:

Please marina do the word hacker as a video :twisted: :evil: :twisted:

Cliffhanger :shock: Your video is entertaining and sexy, those big blue eyes! I especially enjoy it when you end with bloopers :lol: Way cool :cool:

Dude! Please. Hope she was impressed and all that brain powe didn’t go to waste. :idea:

Ms. Marina

A quick word(s) request. I have been interested in the English words “thee, thy, and thou”. I understand them to be “informal” like “ti’ is to Bbi in Russian. Is that correct? What is each word’s characteristic and how did English lose that Dynamic?

It’s a cliffhanger that is at the end of every soap opera episode. And where did the word cliffhanger derive from anyway?

Marina, I will try again and see if this word is worthy of your time.
I just acquired one of these. It is a Baidarka.What does the word mean?
Also a thought for you. Since you are such a popular teacher now and Van Halen is currently on tour you should get in touch with them and do a redo of their song and video [Hot For Teacher].
Hot For Words! Hot For Teacher!!! All the best, Scotthorn :grin:

So I was wondering where the word ‘hyper’ came from and how it relates to ‘hyperbole’

Thanks for the fun education =p

Hi Marina,
Can you explain where the word “DOG” comes from and when did one started to use this :?: I believe that in old times only the word “hound” was used.
Waiting anxious for another Hot for Words episode.

Love from ,
EYEOPENER

nice post, me like :cool:

the soap opreas used a technique called a “teaser” or “cliffhanger” (where you would tune in the next day to see if the heroine had “fallen off the cliff” or had been rescued.

Hi,you were great as ususal!
I was wondering if you could bring up the ord “Warlock”
Thank you for your attention!
Keep up the good work!

Appalled where does this word come from?!?

:?: ok, i know that the vowels are a, e, i, o, and u. AND SOMETIMES W and Y. At least they used to teach that….schools aren’t so great anymore. And i know that there is at least one word in the dictionary using W as it’s ONLY vowel (crwth). Are there any others?

Cliffhanger of course. :grin:

HI Marina,

The word you’re looking for is “cliffhanger”.
In the southern hemisphere they call the same thing “hingclaffer!”…
or was hangcliffer… nope… hiffclinger… hmmm?!

Cheers!
Harv :mrgreen:

Most likely word is “ignored” to fill in the blank, say no more. I did my homework, honest..ahh I can’t lie, but don’t have to now. Can’t wait to see what music people would argue to be best at the party though. Seems like a few good folks with good taste around so I’d probably enjoy. Anyways in keeping with the quote of the day by Warren Zevon “I’ll sleep when I’m Dead” with a weird twist in the vid.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPlMmwOq7U8
Not really party music though eh, Well I would pay large $$$ to bring Taimane to my party, luau http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVf40uwsTQg if people didn’t enjoy at least they’d be impressed. I wrongly thought a uke’ was a starter instrument. Cheers

Nice word & I agree. It’s not my business, if it were I’d consider a word like ‘checked’ with all of it’s implications; but, I still stand behind the blank ________ for others to fill in.

2nd Agree: there do seem 2 B some ‘good folks…’ here!

MISOGYNIST, Not to You though. Any stories of your own :?:

:twisted: ….. don’t forget the color spectrum request
:lol: ….. I feel so neglected
:idea: this place needs work
:oops: Ahoy Marina

hey marina i was wondering if you could figure out the origin of the number 23 and i do believe the answer is a cliffhanger thanks

TEACH, W AS A VOWEL :grin: ANOTHER ONE IS, CWM ; A STEEP VALLEY.

I hope no bad people show up.

AWWWWW that’s too bad.

My post is gone :cry:

But still, let me replace it

Great lesson.

Two lessons in one day? I am so lucky.

Anyway, please upload and I would like to request

Vice- as in bad things like gambling and alcohol. and also a title prefix like vice-president. And also a clamp.

Why are dumbbells called that? What’s the dumb for?

Dear Teacher,
Can you tell us about the word “Hope”

Thankss :P
xxxxoooxxxx

(since my name is Hope i want to see where it came from)

can you tell us what nigger means?

ok before eveyone shouts at me for being obscene, this is a serious request, albeit kinda rude. I am actually genuinely interested in the history behind the word ‘masturbate’, i mean how did the words ‘mast’ and ‘bate’ come together to make the meaning that we know?

teacher, please investigate! (see what i did there with the rhyming?…)

:idea: marina, can you tell me where the word shoplifting came from and what does it have to do with lifting shops lol :?: :mrgreen: wow must be bad because you lost so mant comments :shock:

Marina do numbers and other words origins relate :?:

Hello Marina,
I wanted to know where the word Yahoo originated(ok I already know),Thought it would be a good lesson .Thanks, bye

Why are words like “funner” and “funnest” not correct?

Answer: “fun” was originally a noun, and later it became used as an adjective. “We had fun” was original, “this is a fun game” is a more recent usage.

Other nouns that are used as adjectives follow the same rule. “Cherry” is a noun, but it can be used as an adjective, like “dude look at that cherry 1967 Mustang, it’s in flawless condition.” But you would not say one 1967 Mustang is “cherrier” than another, or that Jay Leno has the “cherriest” 1967 Mustang of all. Those would be wrong. Instead, say “more cherry” or “most cherry.”

Okay Marina… I’m not trying to be cute here, but some women at the office were talking about this today, and no one seemed to know where it came from, so this is a serious word request.

Where did the expression “G-Spot” come from and what does “G” stand for anyway?

I’ll bet you can do a lot with this one! :twisted:

Something funky is happenning… my first attempt to post this didn’t take…

Anyway… what is the origin of the word G-Spot… and what does “G” stand for anyway?

I’m not trying to be cute… some women were discussing this today, and I think it would make a killer lesson.

Sorry this is redundant. I see now the most recent comments are on top. I must have missed the memo.

:!: can you do the word ‘Morbid’ :!:

Thanks its just a strange word and can mean lots of things

Two Words: Procrastination and the phrase G-spot

:twisted:

Marina: (My favorite teacher)

Since you are Russian, I have a word for you. The word is: Patronymic.
I know what it means but I would like to know the origin and why Russia, which to my knowledge, is the primary country that does this. Are they the only country? If not, what others use this? And, where did it get started?

I am looking forward to our next beautiful lesson.

Bill

Heya

I want to know the meaning of word BODOM and what is means by “children of bodom”

luv
ci

ditto the answer.

Marina can you make out the origins of all those words or are you limited to just a few :?: I love your russian accent. what if you can do an entire show in russian to tease our vocabulary. . keep up the great work

where’s waldo?

:idea: additionally at some point in an episode consider the relationship between word origins & intentions that correllate or relate to other words or numbers ……like 23.

Im kinda curious to know what the origin of the phrase “calling the kettle black” Thanks

-Yost_112

I thought this would be an import request since there so many odd occurances of “23″ cramped by cosmic nature (I guess we could say that this is some type of “slang”?) what’s the origin of slang…

Teacher!
Another great lesson. . . but i had an interesting word I would love for you to help me with.
“Anonymous”
and if u do phrases. . .Where in the world did the phrase
“More than one way to skin a cat.” come from.?

Thank you dear teacher!

-Zach

please explain the words

masturbation
1766, from Mod.L. masturbationem, from L. masturbatus, pp. of masturbari, altered (probably by influence of turbare “to stir up”) from *manstuprare, from manu, abl. of manus “hand” (see manual) + stuprare “defile” (oneself), from stuprum “defilement, dishonor,” related to stupere “to be stunned, stupefied” (see stupid). Earlier Onanism (q.v.). The verb masturbate is first recorded 1857.

online etymology

musically explained by billy idol

Yes it is widely known as a perverted phrase but can’t stop imagining it during the first stages of romance with the opposite sex. Also seems to have made a name for it’s self as being a local hang out.

I guess someone flipped a switch

This posting has been replaced in danielthelawmans request for 23

good evening hot for words, a saying crossed my mind today. and i couldn,t help to think if anyone would know how this came to be. it would be you. well here goes, up the creek without a paddle , what do you think? well hope to hear from you on this one. i have some words, but i,ll send them to you another time. don’t want to put all my eggs in one basket. :grin: theres another one. well hope to hear from you and keep up the good work. later challenger666

:)

Hi Marina, I just found your movies, AND I LOVE IT. I hope my mom doesn’t think this iz p0rn. Anyways, my teacher is making me do a speech on the origin of the word MAYOR, as in the mayor of a town. Think you can help me out?

SHH! dont tell them. This would be a buetifull lesson :twisted:

23? Why 23? :?: :?: Well i guess itz better then 69 :oops:

Sometimes I need to say “my sister is an otorhinolaryngologist”. But no one has got what I said so far, if you would be so bold as to investigate, i have fun watching you try to pronouce this one, hehe, if you do, goodluck, you’ll need it :shock:

Oh my word is otorhinolaryngologist if you diden’t get it, sorry.

Dear Teacher,

Marina, I have a word for you that I would like to know more about. The word is “ARCANE”. If you could educate me on the word I’d appreciate it. Thanks! :wink:

Hi Marina, could you please do a lesson on suffixes, such as “ian”, “ist”, “esque”, “en”, “ify”, “ous”, “ism” ? What is the root of these specific suffixes? (there are so many suffixes, so I only wanted to ask about a few)

Thanks :smile:

pests

What about the prefix, “pro-”? I know it’s like, “the best”, but what about “protect”, or even “prohibit”? So yeah. o:3

What about “great” like… “Great grandmother”

Hi Marina,

I was wondering if you could find the origin of the word “Hobo”.

Thank you so much!

- YeaIAmTheAwesomeness

Can’t think of anything other than cliffhanger. And how about “hunky dory”? I have no idea where those otherwise meaningless words came from.

My dear teacher, I’m sorry to have to point this out, but your research didn’t go back far enough. First of all, the origin of “Soap Operas” did NOT start with television, as daytime Soaps were not around for many years after Television came on the scene. Most programming was only in the evenings. Daytime Soaps showed up much later, and long after all thought of a Horse Opera was a common occurance. However, RADIO soaps were extremely common through the late 30′s and aftewards. (Guiding Light being one of the first, and started in January, 1937 on radio, and transfering to Television when that was feasible.) Radio was around at the time silent westerns, or horse operas were, and that is where the phrase transfered from, stage to radio, to small screen.
Oh, and most serials, as they are also known, ended in a cliffhanger, to induce one to tune in for the next episode.

im with the dude below me, i wanna know where soccer comes from.

Hi Marina,
Could you please tell me the origin of the word euphemism as it is not in your list. Thank you. :grin:

:arrow:

I would appreciate it if you could tell me where the phrase catch 22 comes from?

I think this legitimate financial term might generate more views than “naked” and it is very topical, considering the price of gas.

What is the origin of the phrase “crack spread”? :mrgreen:

I dig it! I dug it! I want some mo’ uvvit!

Why do they not call a “w” a “double ‘v’”?

The term G-spot comes from the name of the doctor that discovered it. I can remember his exact name but it started with a G.

G-spot comes from “Graffenberg spot” named after the Dr. that actually “discovered” it. I won’t get into detail here but, he found it and named it after himself. It must have been fun research.

Bill

Graffenberg

While it isn’t a request for a particular word, per se, my question is what is your favorite english word with an origin in the russian language, and how did we come to adopt it? (i don’t think vodka counts, but god bless you for it)

In the oil industry and futures trading, the crack spread is the differential between the price of crude oil and petroleum products extracted from it; in other words, it is the profit margin that an oil refinery can expect to make by extracting other products from oil. In chemistry, to “crack” means to separate the component parts of a substance; in this case, the “cracking” of hydrocarbon chains. A refinery “cracks” the long-chain hydrocarbons found in crude oil into shorter-chain hydrocarbons that make up the useful petroleum products.

In the futures markets, the “crack spread” is a specific spread trade involving simultaneously buying and selling contracts in crude oil and one or more derivative products, typically gasoline and heating oil. Oil refineries may trade a crack spread to hedge the price risk of their operations, while speculators attempt to profit from a change in the oil/gasoline price differential.

From the 1961 Joseph Heller Novel. The “catch” is that a bomber pilot is insane if he flies combat missions without asking to be relieved from duty, and is thus eligible to be relieved from duty. But if he asks to be relieved from duty, that means he’s sane and has to keep flying.

Dude, shut up about it. Back in the old days before it was ‘soccer’ they had football associations to differentiate themselves from rugby football. They used the abbreviated ‘assoc’ which became just ‘soc’ for association, thus people who played were called ‘soccers’

LOSE SOCCER!

HOW ABOUT COMMUNISM? People here in the US think this would be a good thing, Here. Any of Your own thoughts.

In theory , It looks good

In Practice , Deadly.

Hey, Marina I’ve been wondering what the origin for fornicate is. It’s sexy the way so say HOT for words

She said television since most of her listeners are either not old enough to remember radio operas, or not asinine enough to dredge it up. Regardless, her etymological explanation holds up. Your counter is simply a well researched ploy for attention. Thumbs up.

to hop, as in leap in expectation

I think the technique in a soap opera is called a tag, or its suspence, I’m not sure.

So I did some quick searching for the origin of the word “rendezvous” and didn’t find a very interesting background. Think you know something that would spice up the story of the word?

Hi Marina,

I’m wondering if anyone has ever asked you to find the origin of the word – “Word” ?? ;)

The other thing I wanted to mention was have you ever thought of researching the reason why the sounds of words are what they are? i.e. “Word” is the sound for the word – “Word”, “One” is the sound for the number “1″, why is it “one” and not “woo” or “wa”?

The ending to a Soap Opera episode is a “Cliff Hanger.”

Awww man! You lost my post? But I was the second poster and the first to say, “cliffhanger.” Oh well. :)

Hi Marina,
Was just enjoying several of your lessons. I know you did “mischief” awhile back. I am curious about the frequent mispronunciation of the word “mischievous”, where the speaker says, “misscheeveeous”. It seems that people usually shorten a word when they pronounce it wrong, but in this case, a syllable is added that doesn’t seem to be there.
Hope you grab this one!
Thanks, TJ

tigerking,

Yeah, thank you & you’re welcome I’m sure. Did you think I had to pick those words out of a dictionary or something? Hope you didn’t rupture a cortex trying to read my comment.

One man’s cup is another man’s thimble, apparently.

What went to waste was all the stuff we wrote here yesterday, or weren’t you paying attention? Dude.

Cwm (from the Gaelic).

Hiya! I was wondering if I could make a request for the origin of the word “Phenylalanine”. It was something that me and my best friend were making fun off because it was funny to say it. Haha, and also, great videos as always! Keep it up :mrgreen:

word request: Vicarious

Depends on who with.

toysjoe,

I believe the clamp your thinking of is actually a vise (pronounced like vize).

Always enjoy hearing from your sister. I’m surprised she didn’t point out that soap operas began on radio and were carried over to TV. I think “The Guiding Light” is the last surviving carryover.

Thank you Kwirl. Though you characterize it as a ploy for attention, I appreciate your comments nonetheless. The fact is, however, Marina is a serious etymologist, and as such, does not stop her research at a point that most connects with her audience. She find the true root and then brings it to us. In this case, I think she fell a little short, is all. And if you are at all interested, I found an interesting history of soap opera on the web, it does not explain the “opera” part very well, but it goes into the history of radio serials, starting in 1930, and onward to television. I don’t know if you can place links here, so I’ll not do that now, but I googled “First radio soap opera” and it was the first link there (with museum in the address)

Thanks :wink: , a nice lesson ,is the technic called ‘foreshadowing’ :?: .

What other countries use patronymics?

Scotland and Ireland – McXXX and MacXXX
Denmark, Norway and Sweden – XXXson and XXXsen
Iceland goes even further using XXXson for males and XXXdottir for females

to name but a few

Hi Marina;
I really love your videos! If all my teachers had been as beautiful and interesting as you are, then I likely would’ve been a much better student.

Can you find out for me how the term ‘sucks’ came to be used to describe something negative or unpleasant? e.g.; “it really sucks that I broke my leg before the dance tonight.” When did that term enter general usage, and what expression was used before it?

I recall when the word in that context was considered obscene (I still think it’s a bit vulgar), but it became so mainstream that sometimes even I catch myself using it. I would be grateful for any help you can give at all toward ending my perplexity.

Sincerely, your ever attentive student,
Huntan Peck

Congratulations BillyB,
I’m envious; :mrgreen: with envy.

Marina,

First off, I wanted to tell you that you’re absolutely stunning……..

The word I’m curious about is invalid, and by invalid, I mean a sick person. Where did that come from?

That was an easy lesson, but mostly because we use the same words in swedish….. “cliffhanger”. Not that it´s in any way swedish words, but we tend to loan words from different language and use at home.
I´ll get back to you with the word yuletide sometime in december!

I’d like to request the word “Pub Crawl”

Oh and if you’d say hi to the “Thirsty Swagman” (from thirstyswagman.com) while you’re giving the lesson, I would be honored!

I thought of others that need to be unearthed: CURVE,

..the native color spectrum.. & by the way the hot for words site is one of the best. seems though it turns into a battle royale.

the soap in soap opera comes from the sponsors of soap opera programs – with many commercials about laundtry detergents, dish soap, etc……

Dear fellow student,
I’m really sorry: you certainly waited for our teacher to answer but if you really want to know…. and as she cannot answer to each of us….
Thou, thy… are old forms of pronouns that do not exist anymore in english. These old pronouns were way to adress someone with familiarity. These kinds of pronouns still exist in other langages like german( du) , spanish (tu), french (tu) (and perhaps russian as you propose). Each form is a grammar case : subject, accusative or dative form (well, it is about the fonction of the word in the sentence). These old english forms were used during the middle ages and until the time of Shakespear and then they faded in the pages of history. Nowadays, as you surely know, they can only be found in the Bible.
The origin is the german langage that was spoken by angle and saxon in the area called “Saxe” in germany.

Word Request: Bandwagon, as in, relating to sports, “bandwagon fan.”

the answer to the followon question of “what is the word for the dramatic ending that leaves the watchers waiting for the next episode?” The answer is “cliffhanger”

Huntanpeck,

“sucks” means what you think it means… it is vulgar…. it came into common use by kids who did not know what it really means (but they heard it used by adults alot who knew what it meant) and now you cannot convince the young ones what it means, which is: “that sucks the ‘big one’”

Thanks, That is exactly what I thought but I wasn’t sure.
Which leads perfectly into my question…Why did this happen?

Help me out here, I’m guessing that:
Thou = Nominative
Thee = Accusative
Thy = Genitive
? = Dative
? = Locative

I speak Latvian and Russian and both those languages have a Formal and Informal form which make the languages much richer and better in many ways (in my opinion at least, and I’m an American)

So Marina, why were these words lost? or is this too complex for a single lesson? (please, don’t let me down)

Soap Operas use a technique called a Cliffhanger to get people to tune in for their next show the next day.

Why don’t you just call her an ear, nose, and throat doctor?

jindai,

There’s really no need to open with an apology. Obviously, some people are bound to interpret it as condescension.

Just say what you think, everyone else does. You have every right; that’s what this place is for… I’m sure Marina appreciates it.

Your apology seems to have become an invitation for pseudo-analysis by someone who is transparently looking to invalidate your observations in order to usurp whatever consideration they merit. Your point is well made, not asinine. Kudos.

Pennsyltucky9,
Thanks. I was raised with sensabilities and manners that predate blogs and comments, so I tend to apologize prior to what might be perceived as a slight. (As opposed to an apology for being right.) I can see that that is seen as a weakness in the blog community, so I’ll heed your advice and not do that in the future, despite my instincts. :???:
Thanks again, and have a great one.

And the SAGA continues………………lol

Interestingly enough most soap operas today are in fact sponsored by Proctor and Gamble, which makes and owns many things, including soap lines, toothpaste, and Pringles.

And the term is cliffhanger :)

I would be in a soap opera with you any tin, hold on, gotta get the water hose, your so hot my pc is smoking. :) :cool:

Thank you, Marina!
You are in the top three of all my teachers, just after teacher of math.

I believe this method is “fake marriage shoe”. As long as you get used to it, this marriage keep changing the shoe colors by faking it.

‘cliffhanger’? Bah! The technique is known as titilation.

I am in love with this woman! :neutral:

Yeah, how ’bout the word “dude”, dudette?

(Or I won’t call you “dudette” if you don’t want me to.)

pennsyltucky9, you didn’t get those words from a dictionary? Holy shit, did you make them up, then? Wow! :shock: Teach me how to do that… :lol: :lol: :lol:

Also, Marina, you can do “deez nuts”. Dat’s a funny one, I like it it suonds fnuny! Ah huh-huh-huh! :wink:

And I’m jealous with jelly… :roll:

ne’ermind…

forshais, what is your native language?

“cwm” is from the Welsh, a Brythonic language, not a Gaelic (or Goidelic) one.

You mean… you don’t know? :eek:

buzzword, why must you respond to text with videos? :roll:

And now, Marina can’t masturbate—that is, she can’t teach us all about the word “masturbate” because YOU told us! Waaaa! :cry:

Still, I wouldn’t mind if she did a video for it anyways… :grin:

FYI, the “fun” point was covered by A Way With Words.

Привет, Marina! I am the first to say that you are beautiful, that the answer is Cliffhanger, and that “supercalafragelisticexpialadociously” is as much a word as “supercalafragelisticexpialadocious”!

(Please forgive my sarcasm! :cry: )

Oh, and please do one on the word “sarcasm”! Thanks you! :wink:

Why don’t you just call her a taxi? :razz:

I like your shirt if I had a favorite color and my key chain that you are using for a necklace. I am still waiting for the next date and unfortunately I had to push my car seventeen miles home after the last date? I would have to say it was all pleasure! :smile: & :smile:

Marina, also could you do a video on superschitzophrenicexpialodocious? I have it!!! It’s a rare chemical balance that is only caused by me not watching your funny, witty, and extremely sexy videos!!! lol jk I don’t have that, but I do like to watch your videos!!!

Again a nice one.

For Marina it indeed is! :mrgreen:

Hi Marina, Dearest of all my teachers,

I believe the word your looking for is cliffhanger. Seems I have a lot of catching up to do since working away from home all last week, has gotten me behind on the lessons.
Beautiful necklace by the way I love how it nestles amongst the hollow, makes me envious. Have two new word requests “grammatolatry” and “ogallala”.

A voice! A voice! I hear which does set my heart a flutter.
An explosion of heaven within my mind which permeates a burning into the very flesh of my being.
Truly this woman is bone of my bone, flesh of my flesh, otherwise it could not be,
for this reason alone I claim her my own , Marina for all eternity.
