    I guess choice 2!

  • prospero811

    You look great in yellow. You should have, however, demonstrated the process of girding the loins – maybe a little Princess Warrior outfit, or something like that. :wink:

  • jeenyice

    during the roman-era to “gird your loins” meant to draw up and tie your lower garment between your legs to increase mobility and agility. this prevented the loose ends of your garment from getting tangled up with something on the ground or your feet. :idea:

  • dankupchi

    Hi Marina. You look amazing in all your videos. I checked over the words that you have done and there wasn’t the word Peace. Peace as in, when people say bye to each other and peace as in for countries and the world. Do they have anything in common and how did each word come up to be used to way it is? If you can’t do that word, try butterfly. It has the word fly and butter in it but neither have anything to do with the insect. Thank – you Marina. Again, I love your videos and I hope you use one of these words as your next one. Thank – you, goodbye. Or should I say peace? Haha.

    Hello, my lovely teacher, Ms. Marina!
    (It is Miss, right?)
    ;)
    I would like to know where the word “Love” came from. :D

    Please and thank you,

  • donfelipegonzales

    Dear teacher
    Argh ! Another idiomatic sentence…. As I am really a newbie with this kind of sentences and that we are not allowed to google it up, I’ll try to guess. I propose number 3 (well there is a lot of loan words these times so….)
    Thank you for the game
    Your devoted student
    Amicalement
    Don Felipe

  • dankupchi

    Ok then. Peace is the word I want.

  • donfelipegonzales

    Dear fellow student
    It could be worse, once you have been the teacher’s pet once, what do you wait for?
    You will have one day the great pleasure to hear your name said by the teacher. Just wait

    i would like to know where the word nincompoop came from. please tell me. youre beautiful and the best!!

  • martinboy

    Hello my teacher i was woundering were the word thong cam from and why do we call it that ?

  • wordlover

    Answer = â„–2 (HINT: used in Proverbs 31:17 and is used of a woman).

  • sniperskaya

    I vote for #2. I remember the phrase from the bible. An archaic custom from the time before pants were invented, back in the days when everyone wore a dress or a shower curtain and the fashion industry (and underwear) hadn’t yet been invented. Ah, the good old days…

  • wordlover

    That’s two words—unless you spell it “thongcam” or request the phrase “thong cam”. :mrgreen:

  • biagini2

    I’ve never heard the expression “gird your loins” before! I have know idea what it means. So a wild guess is in order. Number 1?

  • Богдан

    Привет!
    It seems like #2 is the most popular answer, but since I had been leaning toward #1, and since I think that Roman soldiers were brave but not reckless…
    …what did Roman soldiers call the piece of armor that protected their family jewels?

    I wanna be the Teacher’s Pet! LOL :lol: Lyrics sung by a blond bombshell from a different era – Doris Day:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9ouLrgvneE&feature=related

    Teacher’s pet (pa dum pa dum pa dum)
    I wanna be teacher’s pet (pa dum pa dum)
    I wanna be huddled and cuddled as close to you as I can get
    (That’s the lesson we’re guessin’ you’re best in)

    Mm, teacher’s pride (pa dum pa dum)
    I wanna be teacher’s pride (pa dum pa dum)
    I wanna be dated, paraded, the one most likely at your side
    (Ya got a burnin’ yearnin’ to learn)

    I wanna learn all your lips can teach me
    One kiss will do at the start (are you really?)
    I’m sure with a little homework
    I’ll graduate to your heart (to your heart)

    Teacher’s pet (pa dum pa dum), I wanna be teacher’s pet (pa dum pa dum)
    I wanna take home a diploma and show Ma that ya love me, too
    (That ya love me, too)
    So I can be teacher’s pet long after school is through

    (Oh, teacher’s pet) Mm, mm
    (You wanna be teacher’s pet) Ah. ah
    (You wanna be huddled and cuddled as close to him as you can get)

    I wanna learn all your lips can teach me
    One kiss will do at the start
    I’m sure with a little homework
    I’ll graduate to your heart

    Teacher’s pet (you love the teacher), I wanna be teacher’s pet (pa dum pa dum)
    I wanna take home a diploma and show Ma that ya love me, too (Wow!)
    So I can be teacher’s pet (yeah!) long after school is through

    Privyet Marina. While we’re discussing “girding your loins”, on a similar note, where did the old English word “codpiece” originate? At one time it was considered essential as a piece of a man’s haut couture…
    (I’m pretty sure your male fans are wondering what you gird your loins with.)

  • sniperskaya

    melikadothechacha, it appears we thing alike (re: codpieces) …. that’s certainly a disturbing thought!

  • goldpaws

    Hi, Marina!

    Every where I go, it seems no one can say my name right! it is a common Irish word, I’m told – so here we go..

    What is the proper way to say “Colleen” and where did it come from? (I do know what it means, according to baby name books, it means “irish girl” or “girl” but i have no idea how the term came to mean any general irish girl walking down the street and not one particular irish girl’s name)

    Even my sister’s boyfriend says it all wrong. My family pronounces it the way webster’s dictionary does (you can listen online at m-w.com, i believe).

    Anyway, I’m tired of being called Collean or Clean or Kolleen! A shoutout of the proper pronounciation would be great =)

    Thanks!

  • http://maddogsalamander.blogspot.com/ maddog_salamander

    :shock: GIRD MY WHAT?!

    Oh…I thought you said “logins”.

    I am going to go with the obvious: choice number 1. I am pretty sure that it had to do with preparing for battle and putting on the gear which is most likely the first armor ever created. Who needs to keep the head, heart, arms, or legs safe from a slashing sword? No, a man must not lose his “manhood” else his line would perish.

  • melikadothechacha

    MAN! just put a polish on the apple!

  • prospero811

    Yeah… I saw some action in Thong when I was in the ‘Nam. It got pretty hot down there…

  • melikadothechacha

    more the humidity than the heat. :mrgreen:

  • le parisien

    I have two requests: Perfume and Jasmine.

    Thx, Merci.

  • webflyer

    Hi teacher. :grin: Looks like you tried to fool us with the first choice. :twisted: To gird means to encircle as with a belt but I just don’t buy that a soldier would tie up his genitals before a fight. It dosn’t seem that it would do mutch good and it sounds kind of painfull. :shock:

    I think I’ll go with number two. Tying up your robe before a fight to free your leggs makes sence and you are “girding” or encircling your waist or your “loins” when you do so. :grin:

    Thanks for the game.

  • webflyer

    I think it was called the Gladious…..lol

  • jsmooth5atl

    I am pretty good at this guessing game so I say #2. #1 and 3 both sound rather silly while #2 sounds the most reasonable. :mrgreen:

    Gird up your logins? Kenny? Hmmmm, not sure if he’d go for that, but ya never know….

  • Bob

    Don Felipe is correct.
    Once your dream has come true you have nothing more to look forward to.
    Patience.
    Enjoy the anticipation.

    Ah, but what is living without your “loins”?

  • leonidas

    And it smelled like Nuoc mam all the time.

  • http://captainjack.ws captainjack

    Ok I never heard of this phrase before. So Im going to make a EWAG (educated wild ass guess). :mrgreen: With what I know of garb used in S.C.A. gatherings. Im going to have to go with #2.

  • Bob

    It’s No. 2 again.
    From the same root we get girdle, a garment worn around the area below the ribs and above the hips to hold in the wobbly bits.

  • gio.forever

    jajajaja muy gracioso amigo, where exactily are you from in Spain ?

  • leonidas

    While I personally prefer the use of the belt as in #1 to provide me a degree of protection, the original expression was used as in Marina’s #2.

    Marina…my dear…please do “grain of salt.”

  • oysterfrond

    It’s number one, the Roman thing. I think! Gird your loins makes sense if it’s about strapping then up in protection, given the origin of ‘gird’.

    And if they’re strapped up that means they’re safe and ready for use, right? Instead of being ripped off or bitten off in battle (ouch)!

    I’m not sure how relevant it is, but in some cultures there’s a rich tradition of men inserting various objects into their manhood – sticks, pearls, metal rods etc. The theory is the more lumpy the member the more stimulation it can give. Sounds to me like they’re taking this whole “Gird Your Loins” thing way too far.

  • gio.forever

    I don’t know, something tells me the correct is Nro 2, I’ve never hear anything about that phrase but I think it is the second one

  • http://captainjack.ws captainjack

    How deep did you go into the bush when you where in Nam, Pros? :mrgreen:

  • leonidas

    I would suspect that Marina’s loin are usually gird about with something from Victoria’s Secret…

  • http://captainjack.ws captainjack

    I don’t know where we are at. I can’t see anything beyond my cage.

  • http://captainjack.ws captainjack

    Yea you guys might be right. Now I’m to the point that I don’t want to be a teachers pet. If I get picked then I would have to leave S.O.U.P. :cry: And Your all my friends and I’ll miss you guys. :cry: And I don’t want left out on the street. :mrgreen:

  • nearlynot

    It’s #2. The loins is the abdominal region and the area about the hips. The bible uses both the Hebrew words Chala-tsa’yim (loins) and moth-na’yim(hips). To “gird up the loins” meant to gather up the ends of the robes under the sash to facilitate physical activity.

  • http://youtube.com/user/opusrex opusrex

    I know the answer is number 2.

    Word request Marina. Or rather two sets of words. I ment to ask this under the Lieutenant vid, but …

    Major General. And why is it that a Lieutenant General out ranks a Major General?

    :twisted:

  • wordlover

    Except being chosen twice! Thrice! — Oh, man! :shock:

    I would like to know the origin of B.C. and A.D. And please make me teachers pet. Not just an apple but apple carmel peacon pie for teacher.

  • mistress9nine

    No.2 sounds good.

    Word request: As I watched you eat in the lootenant video I became hungry and some sandwiches with mayonnaise. It got me wondering where the word mayonnaise comes from and what does it mean? it sounds very frenchy to me.

  • nighteye

    I’ll go with #1 – my first thought when reading the expression was of a chastity belt. Which reminds me, where does that term come from anyway? Chastity belt…

  • prospero811

    Actually, Cap’n, about 3 minutes on youtube!

  • http://captainjack.ws captainjack

    Like Marina has ever done that before. :neutral: If I was chosen twice I would run out today and buy a lotto ticket. :lol: The odds of the lottery are much better than being picked twice! :mrgreen:

  • turtlewax

    I vote for option 1.

    How did “cleave” come to be its own opposite?

  • hillbillynick

    They’re all odd, but I’d go with #1.

    Word request: I’d like to know the origin “cold turkey” as in “Quitting smoking cold turkey”.

  • oysterfrond

    Mayonnaise is French – just like Dijonaise and Hollandaise it takes its name from the city in which it (supposedly) was invented. Mayonnaise originally meant it came from Mahon in Spain.

    Here in England we have Worcestershire sauce, which is kind of the same thing. But what about Thousand Island Dressing? For real?

    Maybe teacher can tell us about where the Thousand Island Dressing name came from – I bet there were never really 1000 islands who got together to invent a cocktail sauce…

    JFK fan? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ich_bin_ein_Berliner#Jelly_doughnut_urban_legend

    “My evil twin, bad weather friend
    He always wants to start when I want to begin*
    It scares me so, like I scare myself
    With that book of Nostradamus up upon my shelf

    Playing hangman ’til the morning light
    Doing donuts on the neighbors lawn
    Then sleep all through the day, get up and start again
    I can hear some sirens somewhere but I don’t know why

    My evil twin runs home again
    Search lights look for an alibi, but I’ll be home by then

    Here he comes again, my evil twin
    My friends have seen him hiding underneath my skin

    Who cut the arm off the voodoo doll
    That resembles a Republican president from long ago
    I’d hate to see you leave
    ‘Cause I have grown so grateful for the
    Blame you save me from

    My twin
    My twin
    My twin

    (My twin) I know he looks like me
    (My twin) Hates work like me and walks like me
    (My twin) He’s even got a twin like me

    My evil twin, bad weather friend
    I know some day I’ll meet him
    But I don’t know where or when”

    Tie it up? I usually just wrap it around my leg a couple times, and it stays put – keeps me from tripping on during battle. :razz:

    #1 sounds pretty painful.
    #3 is just made up.

  • dastheboss2

    My friend once sang me a song that went like this….

    You put the pickle in the pickle put the pickle in the groin
    The groin in the pickle and the pickle in the groin

    That goes on for a bit. But it ryhms with loin so I thought I would share.

    P.S. choice 1 sounds painful

  • caktonias

    Considering whenever I hear the phrase it is meant to mean protect your vulnerable areas, and so I am going to assume not much has changed in the meaning and will therefore say that the first explanation is the correct one.

  • wordlover

    dastheboss2, was your friend drunk when he sang it to you? :razz:

    P.S. What’s your guess? 1, 2, or 3?

  • tch1010

    I think that the answer is #2.

    Where does the word orgasm come from :?:

  • pikkupandropov

    Where did the word “horny” as in sexually excited come from, according to the “DaVinci Code” it came from a Egyptian god who had rams horns. Also I heard it comes from a Rhinocerous horn Which is considered an Aphrodisiac in some culture. Personally I believe the former.

  • oysterfrond

    This puts me in mind of another expression: “fill your boots.”

    Meaning have your fill, take full advantage – usually in a sex context, Is this a British thing only or do US people say it too? Anyway, what on earth has sexual gratification got to do with footwear?

  • melikadothechacha

    Yepper. Ol’ Frank did a bunch

  • mosescali

    i think its number one… so #1 FTW!!!

    :twisted:
    I was wondering if you could please find the origin for the word:

    Pwn

    It is used in video games to say “own” but it basically means “Player one, OWNED, Player Two.”

    Thanks!

  • capman911

    Or that was what I was taught.

  • bosscelt

    Ouch. :twisted: ..I don’t care how rough the battle would be…moving a muscle, even that one, with a belt around it would be a grave impediment. As to steaks, I think that is a bit far fetched. :lol:

    Based on the usage I’m familiar with from literature and elsewhere, Number 2, seems correct. In preparation for doing much in the way of work, you would want to shorten the long robe for greater mobility. :neutral:

    I am going with #3. In the event of a storm you would want to protect the lifestock…. Request for the word- ” humdinger”

  • webflyer

    Here is my theory. :grin:

    The modern calendar measures our years starting from the year of the birth of Christ. Years B.C. count down the years “Before Christ.” i.e. 1 BC is 1 year before Christ, 100 BC is 1 hundered years before Christ etc.

    After Christ was born we come into the modern era A.D. This is Anti-Domini, A.D.; After Christ. i.e. 1 AD is the first year after Christ’s birth, 100 AD is the hundredth year after Christ’s birth etc.

  • webflyer

    There’s a good word to research…..”cocktail” I’d love to hear the origin of that one :roll:

  • kaibanator

    i just have a feeling that theory #1 sounds too convenient somehow, so i think the answer might be theory #3. (I hope I am right)

  • lcl4

    Beloved teacher,

    I respectfully submit to you that the traceable origin is the Bible.

    2nd Kings Chapter 4 verse 29 : “Then he said to Gehazi, gird up thy loins and take my staff and go thy way.”.

    Given the garments worn at the time I submit it was to prepare for physical freedom of movement.

    Your humble student

    Man must have figured that out after some time…and eventually devoloped the full suit of armor. Still…it would have been better live peacefully and not have to worry about an unplanned “loinectomy.”

  • kaibanator

    :oops: I change my mind its number 1 :oops:

  • tenkasian

    The loins are between the lower ribs and pelvis. It is often used when describing the anatomy of humans and quadrupeds (such as horses, pigs or cattle). The anatomical reference also carries over into the description of cuts of meat from some such animals, eg. tenderloin or sirloin steak.

    The term also loosely refers to human genitals due to their prominence in that anatomical region. Hence “fruit of one’s loins” means children.

    A loincloth is a one-piece male garment, sometimes kept in place by a belt, which covers the genitals and, at least partially, the buttocks.

    Wow Kylev, Reciprocity is one of my favourite words. It’s the state of being reciprocal, i.e. give and take, scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours. One person (or corporation, or nation, or whatever) gives some effort, endevour or expenditure and gets something equivalent in return. A fair exchange. Sort of like symbiosis – or prostitution.

    I’ve also heard GIRT your loins, and the source has something to do with GIRTH, as in wrapping something around it your girth.

    The way I understood it, this was to wrap up your midsection in leather or strong fabric and fasten it nice and tight so your gut would be held in close to your center of gravity, your kidneys would be somewhat protected and your low back would be well-supported at the same time.

    If I were going into battle, I’d most likely want to cover my privates, but I’m not so sure I’d tie my balls up in anything that constricted my movement. Imagine when you spring forward to take that really long step to strike what you hope is the finishing thrust and your cajones get squished against the side of your leg by your leather jockstrap. Owie! GAME OVER DUDE.

    But the low back and gut definitely do better in the long run with the use of a strong backbrace for strenous tasks like kicking some serious ass.

    It’s #1,

    but it wasn’t the genitals they were wrapping up as much as it was the waist and the upper part of the hips and the low back.

    Dear Miss HFW: I’ll go with answer #2, in GTW, to free up your legs. In Old Testatment Biblical times, men with a typical extra long t-shirt for normal attire, could run faster in battle with the inseam of the garment higher. This was before somebody invented pants for men. Number 1 sounded right until I thought about it, Roman soliders/yeah, “fasten genitals with a belt”/ouch! No way. Let’s see, something like a chastity belt for men to go into battle, no. Time out, let me put this belt between my legs to fasten my reproductive parts so I can move better, no. Whoever invented the jock strap for men to use in running races deserves mention. Number 3, sirlion, no way. As for Grand Theft Auto/molotov cocktail(convict playstation No#999) mentioned prior, sorry, I still play the Russian game tetris, gameboy Castlevania, and chess vs. computer. I’m living on the edge (the past for some). PS – MSN brower took time to load this, but didn’t have any issues with Log in /reply/ cookies/ ect.

    Hi Marina,

    I was wondering if you could find the origin for the word “ubiquitous”. If that word is not suitable or possible, maybe any of the following words:

    menagerie, subterfuge, magniloquent, somniferous, or deleterious.

    I don’t know if any of them will work, I just thought I would suggest a few. Thank you.

    Also, I think the answer to the gird your loins question is #1. :smile:

    WORD REQUEST – CAR, AUTOMOBILE

    Hello there Marina!
    I’ve come across your videos on YouTube recently and I have a word request for you.
    Why do we call that thing that moves us from one place to another car? Does it come from char-iot??? And what about automobile?

    By the way… I really, really, don’t like cars. I think they are a mess fo the environment, they could be a lot more technologically evolved, they are not that confortable, not safe, boriiiiing to drive but… hey, that’s the best we have so far and since we spend so much of our time and resources on those wretched things we might as well know the origin of the word.

    All the best to you.

  • pennsyltucky9

    In the US we usually say “shoes” instead of boots. For example, when someone expires or retires from their career, it might be said that they “left some big shoes to fill.” Is that one of the contexts?

    Old wives’ tale has it that foot size is inDICKative of a man’s package size. So if you’re wearing boots that are much bigger than your feet, it may result in some disappointments to the ladies a bit further along, if’n ya catch my drift. For truth in advertising, one must fill one’s boots.

    Similarly (or should I say “likewise” to remain in character), in order to ‘measure up’ to someone else, you have to fill their shoes (i.e., have the same size feet or bigger) so at least the old wives who believe this will think your manhood is just as good or better.

    But this isn’t true anyway. The very idea is riDICKulous if you ask me, but of course no one did.

    Happy trails.

  • oogalieboogalieboo

    This is a trick question? I am on to you, Marina =) I’m going to say, “none-of-the-above”. I am going to say that is Irish accent for, “Guard your Lines”… like when the British would invade Ireland back in mediaval times and the Irish Armies would send out small surveillance squads along a battle line at night, to keep an eye on the perimeter against night time attacks, and “Guard the [your] Lines”. Over time, the sound of the phrase prevailed over the meaning, and thus, “Gird Your Loins”?? =) lol No??

  • pennsyltucky9

    Most cultures had their own calendars, or measure years by who was king or what number in the royal line they were, like dynasties. In some cultures, kings who let their ego get away with them would attempt to eradicate any references to prior rulers so their name could be remembered as first in history. This occurred in Egypt, China and probably some other places as well.

    Thanks for your comment! :)

    Well, I’m not a stateside guy (not that’s anything wrong with that, I would love to properly know the US), I’m a Mozambique-born Portuguese, living in Lisboa, actually.

    Here we also use ‘gasoline’ (gasolina) but here that word means only that specific product: highly refined petroleum with huge octane levels. So gasoline is a liquid, of course, but in fact the molecular connections between the atoms are so few and so loose that it transforms itself into gas very quickly. Come to think of it, it really is an instable liquid.

    For diesel we use ‘gasóleo’ and to make things more messy we also have ‘petróleo’ (very close to petrol, that originated in petroleum, that originated in latin petra + oleum, i. e., oil of rock. I think that has something to do with the geological origin of petrol). And all of this are different petroleum-based products on sale.

    Jesus! How simple things are not simple after all and everything is a lot more interesting than it looks at first glance!

Everything has a gain and cost. these days it’s vogue to anti-up disestablishmentarianism. Lets see how long it takes Al Gore to gird his loins and come out of hiding. Oh oh
    touchy. I do wish people would slow down a bit and be more thoughtful. being thoughtful is what I’m doing here. I like the answer number 1. My mom used to use the expression “gird your loins” from time to time. I guess I never really gave it much thought. (Wildwood flower). I just had to go and do what I really didn’t want to. I wouldn’t prefer to “go commando”.
    Thanks again Marina. Another +5 performance. Mwwwwa

    Answer #1 sounds right to me. In fact, I believe it’s a Biblical phrase making reference to preparing oneself for battle (with the Devil) much as members of the Roman Legions would when facing foreign armies.

    Interesting thought,,, I think you may be onto something.
    I know that the number 40 when mentioned in ancient times in the mid-eastern part of the globe merely means many and not in actuality 40. For example ‘Ali Baba and his band of 40 thieves’, ‘Raining for 40 days and 40 nights’ or ‘Moses left Egypt when he was 40 yrs of age and returned 40 yrs later then lead his people through the desert for 40 yrs till he died.’
    40 = many

  • prospero811

    Marina,

    There’s been a lot of discussion lately about your evil twin. There seems to be even some contemplation of “naming” her. To me, it’s inconceivable that she doesn’t have a name yet, since she’s your twin and therefore would be in her 20s. So, it’s more a question of discovering her name, rather than giving her one.

    I think I’ve puzzled this out, though. :idea: It’s my contention that the evil twin of the good Marina is none other than……….[cue dramatic sound effect - dun dun DUN!!]….. Bizarro-Marina! :!: Q.E.D.

    Now, you may want to investigate the etymology of the word “Bizarro” and do a video about it. You could then reveal your evil twin to the world at that time.

    Since this word is a cult-favorite in popular culture, many here will know all about it, but let’s see if Marina wants to address it first….if her twin really is Bizarro-Marina…..

    :grin:

    I was wondering if anyone else has ever thought about the word universe. If the universe is all encompassing, what or better yet where would the multi-verses be :?: That is to think that there is unlimited space out there.
    We have always lived with some kind of boundary: the womb, our crib, the 4 walls, our neighborhood, city, state, country, world, solar system, galaxy, universal quadrant and mental capacity.

    my head hurts again Doctor :!:

  • titanpa

    I thought her evil twin was Aniram. By the way, why do you think that twin was evil? She didnt seem evil. She didnt want to take over the World Wide Web. If anything her twin was hungry. must have been all that soldier training.

    Didn’t even get that ad showing. I’m with you, I’ve been using Firefox with Adblock with Filterset.G Updater – I get used to not seeing the ads and had to load the page in Internet Explorer to see what people are talking about.

    My take – a few ads on a page is more than acceptable, as something has to pay the bills. When you get more ads than content – well that’s why Adblock was made in the first place.

  • hutchiee

    It’s gotta be #2. There’s been enough answers with pigs involved so it can’t be #3.

  • prospero811

    I think if you listen to Marina’s twin, you will find, Q.E.D., that she is Bizarro-Marina. At least, that’s my contention.

    Get paid titanpa? I WISH! I only mentioned GTA IV because a: I was playing it and b: I figured it would be timely and people would like it.. as for mentioning Gawker.com? They are one of the biggest websites on the Internet and they wrote an article about me.. so I thought that I would take a word suggestion from the writer of that article and maybe he would write about me again.

    It’s all about increasing my audience. Now if I could get paid by these companies, I would be so happy! But trust me… didn’t make dime one from mentioning them.

    You’ll notice that I try to make my videos relevant to what is going on at the time… I did a video on the word hooker when the Elliot Spitzer controversy was happening and that video has currently over 2.3 million views :-)

  • 2hotforwordsfanclub

    I think Oysterfrong has a point but I think that it is a modern tooweaking of the 40 day theory stated by baddoggie. With a life expectancy of 25 in those days it is highly unlikely that Moses lived to 120..

    Prospero811, I think your right on target.As I listened the other day and noticed the timing I came to the same conclusion.Now if Marina will show us her twin we may be proven wrong.She could however pull the old Bewitched scenes where we’d see Sabrina and her brunette sister at the same time. I think Jeannie did this as well with her cousin? :smile:

  • matthewsr

    Option number one is the answer. It was definately a roman military phrase and even used by St. Peter in one if his epistles admonishing people to be prepared for spiritual battle.

  • BillyB

    Oh I better do homework every now & then especially if I think its easy.
    #1 sounds plausible (if not painfull) but I can’t imagine fighting or doing anything quickly in that condition. #3 although a good Idea to protect your animals is unlikely. #2 is recorded Biblicaly & in the old testement means as simple as tucking your robe into your belt, to putting on your Battle gear for Important impotentcy protection.
    In the new testemnt it takes on a more spiritual meaning as its used as a metaphor for protecting ones mind.
    Interesting though in proverbs 31:17 it refers to a woman girding her loins with strength & making her arms strong. Hows the workouts going Marina. “Great Guns”

    Frankly, even if she was paid for mentioning a video game or something, I can’t for the life of me see why that would be a bad thing. Is it bad when a sports figure endorses a product? Heck, if it’s “selling out” to get paid for endorsing or mentioning something, where do I sign up!?

  • oysterfrond

    Here’s an interesting one… on a website forum just now I found myself using the phrase ‘at the drop of a hat’ – what’s the derivation of that?

  • prospero811

    Well, the western wold is not using global warming to stop the progression of eastern ones, sine eastern ones are not restricting or obligated to restrict their pollution production – see, e.g. China, which is a far bigger polluter than the U.S., even though China’s economy is 1/7 the size.

    You can’t run cars on water, but you can run them on hydrogen. There are some problem, though. You need to get the hydrogen, which doesn’t lie around in pools, it’s combined with other elements, such as oxygen in water. That means you have to use energy to get the hydrogen separated from the oxygen or other element. There’s something called an “electrolizer” that can do this, but to run a vehicle that way would cost far more than gasoline costs now, unless an abundantly cheap source of electricity can be found.

    There’s also the fuel cell, but this requires a hydrogen tank, and then it combines the hydrogen with oxygen to produce an electric current with water as a byproduct. The problem is, you have to have the hydrogen first in that instance, which means either getting it out of water using electric current (and then you have to get the electricity from somewhere and all that costs money and creates inefficiency), or some other substance like coal, oil or natural gas, which are the very fuels we’re seeking to replace.

    I honestly don’t believe there’s a plot from all the scientific community, politicians, ecologists and journalists using a ficticious global warming. Too many people involved around the world for the plot to work. :p Those people (and I am one of them) really believe in the global warming reality. The data about it is real. The thing is data can mean other thing that we do not know… and that’s scary too… Boeuf! :p (*** sigh! ***)

    In my view the problem of a car running on water is that… well,water is a very scarce resource and by the look of it will be even more precious than oil in no time.

    What about electric cells? Why don’t someone pays a bunch of scientists of several areas to create an efficient battery system? I don’t know much about that subject but if there’s was a coordinated effort from people around the world who know the matter, enough investment and proper motivation, wouldn’t that be possible?

  • prospero811

    People are working furiously to come up with good batteries for electric cars. There are two main problems that I see – the first is “charge time.” If you have a battery that can take you 200 miles, then will you wait overnight to fill up to continue on your way? There is work being done on capacitors that can shorten this time, but it’s not easy.

    The second is – where do you get the electricity? You’d have to have enough not only to power everyone’s houses and industry and everything that is powered by electricity, but every vehicle in America. Can you think of a feasible way to generate the sheer amount of electricity needed?

    I can only think of one that makes any economic sense – nuclear power plants.

    Thanks prospero811 , I downloaded full plans for such a car months ago but it appears the the electrolytic chamber to perform the separation would be bigger than the car it powers thus defeating the object.

    With regards to the other point I have seen propaganda from the Russian and American sides on every political angle, from conspiracy theories of a fake moon landing to destroy communism and the cold war, even an own goal on 11/9 as an excuse to invade Afgahanistan to destroy opium reserves, and of course the threat of WMD in Iraq to commandeer the supply of oil resources.
    I no longer have an opinion on any of these subjects as i am so confused. As I am with global warming. There appear to be just as many scientist that can disprove it as prove it, but historically media hysteria sells newpapers.
    The question is what are you supposed to believe and would you trust a politician who’s spin controls the media opinion for personal gain.
    One thing is definate though,
    We are mushrooms, kept in the dark and fed bullshit and that no one can hand on heart say that one particular opinion is correct until we convinced that we are fed the correct information on which to base that opinion.

    yes, there is still some investigation to be done here in terms of a final determination of the Bizarro nature of Marina’s twin. As far as the edgy appearance of Bizarros, I think you will find on further investigation that while edginess would be a dead give-away, it is not necessarily required for one to be Bizarro. Examples have been found of Bizarros that appeared, for all intents and purposes, as normal humans but were otherwise Bizarro.

    The investigation of Marina’s twin’s diction is, of course, very important. If we find Bizarro-style diction then by any estimation, we would be justified in concluding that Marina’s twin is, in fact, a Bizarro-Marina.

    I thank you for joining me on this search. I am convinced that we will uncover proof of Bizarro-Marina (aka Aniram). Perhaps we need to reexamine some of the older videos in which Marina’s twin can be heard and determine if anything can be gleaned that points to a Bizarro-twin.

    Good luck and godspeed.

    Marina,

    What is the origin of the word “hornswoggle”?

  • 2hotforwordsfanclub

    No Mr ex-shouter I am too old to understand the technology and can’t find the on switch……We like to steal cars for real and kill people on the street just because they are there . Especially young people that write us off for being incapable ……It’s much more fun …..no offence buddy just messing

    Of course I play games buddy I live on them but I do however worry when people start mixing video fantasy with reality. We had a bit of a problem in the70s when LSD freaks dismissed an oncoming train etc as a hallucination and were killed.

    I am sure that Paolo was right about the origin of the compound name, but it was used nearly 100 years before the internal combustion engine
    as the trade mark of the original human lice treatment.

    There’s a ship arriving too late to save a Drowning Witch – she was swimming along, trying to keep a date with a merchant marine who told her he was really rich; but it doesn’t matter no more, she’s on the ocean floor, and the water’s all green down there. And it’s not very clean down there.

    Not even a Witch ought to be caught on the bottom of America’s spew-infested waterways… she could get radiation all over her… she could mutate insanely… she could grow up to be 50ft tall and scary-looking…

    And then, cars could crash all over the place as a result of people with Hawaiian shirts on, looking up to see her face… sardines in her eyebrows, lobsters up and down her forehead… all of them horribly large and dangerous!

    Maybe a submarine could save her, and bring her back to the navy: for some kind of ritual sacrifice! :shock:

    Marina, If I may offer my 2 cents worth – from what I see you have approximately + or – 40,000 viewers per day. If you were to start a pay site teaching the Russian language, even without giving college credits to those of who would like to learn Russian but don’t have time, say one lesson per week at 5 dollars a month, 60 USD per year per viewer, and even if only 10 per cent of your viewers subscribe, i.e., 4,000 viewers, that would come to 240,000 USD per year, not bad for working one day a week. Naturally if you charge more or have more subscribers then your profits would increase proportionately. Of course that’s all pre-operating expenses, pre-taxes, but still not a bad chunk of change for doing something you do so well that seems to come so naturally to you. Just a thought… But if you should decide to do it, sign me up first, please!

    Hi Marina

  • mello-g37

    The name “Fruit of the Loom” is interpreted by many as a play on words with respect to a part of the Hail Mary prayer: “…blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.” (cf. Gospel of Luke 1:42) The two phrases are unrelated: it is merely a coincidence that “womb” rhymes with “loom”.

    The familiar Fruit Of the Loom Guys consist of an apple, green grapes, purple grapes, and leaves that tend to change color often. They perform several songs and appear in all Fruit of the Loom commercials.
    AND My friend Fruit of the Loom is an American company which manufactures clothing, particularly underwear. The company’s world headquarters are based in Bowling Green, Kentucky !!!!!

    Where does the phrase “Letter of the Law” come from?

  • loserdawg911

    Hey. I have an Idea for you show, but I know the answer .

    It is : the origin of the word “hooker”
    Now, it is said that during the civil war, many women came to “please” the men in the army . Well, one day, 2 soldiers at a camp, saw a overbearing woman pass them. One said to watch him “get her” , or something of the sort. At the time, the Union General’s last name was “Hooker”. It turns out, this woman was the general’s FAVORITE woman, so the other warned ” No man, that’s HOOKER’S” Meaning the general would kill him if he messed with “his girl”

    If you decide to use this, please email me, and please credit “Loserdawg911″ . thanks! :wink: :cool:

    I thought that but I think he is referring to fresh water and thinking further will be a very valuable resource as time goes on because of it’s importance. It’s present value is stunted by it’s abundance . If it becomes scarce we’ll be long gone. The respective buckets we kicked will be rusted away to be recycled back into the ecological chain. The daisies we prop up will be overgrown so that our graves will be unseen.
    I studied the weather for my pilot’s licence and understand that If we desalinate enough seawater the North Atlantic currents to Pacific could slow causing an Ice Age ? Will it get that far ? Are we earth’s most intelligent species ? Will we ever stop trying to dominate each other so that we can share the planet for cohabibitation ?

    Actually that comes from a bit of Greek Mythology. It originates from the story of a man named Narcissus who was apparently very good looking and all the women and nymphs wanted him. What’s more, he knew it and turned them all away, thinking there was nobody good enough for him. Then one day a maiden who had failed in attracting him asked that he be punished. So, while hunting he found a pond and in it saw his own reflection. Basically at this point he fell in love with his own reflection and died right there by the water. So that is how we have the word narcissistic meaning ‘somebody who is in love with themselves, or very vain’.

  • prospero811

    Umm… 2hotforwordsfanclub…you are “too confused” about the Moon landings to have an “opinion” on them? Give me a break. Americans have walked on the Moon several times – not just one “Moon landing.” They weren’t faked. There’s stuff up on the Moon, including a laser reflector that scientists bounce lasers off of all the time. The Soviets, and others, monitored the Apollo Moon missions as well, and if there was any reason to believe they were faked, you better believe the Soviets et al would have pointed it out. Don’t even pretend to be confused about the fact that humans have walked on the Moon.

    And, you can’t honestly believe that 9/11/01 was an “own goal.” The U.S. orchestrated an attack on New York City and Washington DC via hijackings of U.S. aircraft, and the murder of thousands of U.S. citizens…and not only was able to pull it off, but actually kept it secret? Without even going into the fact that there is absolutely ZERO evidence for the allegation of an “own goal” – if the Bush Administration could pull that off, don’t you think they’d have been able to get at least ONE other thing right since then? My God – you give a lot of credit where it isn’t due….

  • pennsyltucky9

    It just means you get more than what would normally be expected, like a special added bonus or something.

    The early 1970′s was at a brief moment in history when many young women were actively rebelling against the constrictive clothing they had to wear in order to appear “acceptable” in public, so many of them gave up wearing a brassiere as a gesture of their liberation from the oppression of the male-dominated fashion industry. I guess I didn’t mind too much :roll: .

    We (men) used to occasionally notice quite a bit of independent motion going on in the upper torso area of certain “liberated women” when they walked, or did almost anything, for that matter. Watching surrepTITiously, as they walked by, we would then wait for a respectable time to pass and whisper to each other stuff like, “Do fries come with that ‘shake’?”

    Hence, “all that and a bag of chips.”

  • bricotius

    Haha that’s a good point, actually in french they called the letter ‘double-v’. Pronounced like ‘doobleh-vay’…..well that’s at least as close as I can get it using the English alphabet rather than the phonetic alphabet. I have two theories on this subject. Maybe Marina can shed some light on it?

    1. Because there was so much animosity between the French and English cultures for such a long time, that maybe for the English language it was decided to be different from their enemy and they changed it to ‘double-u’ as a result. Much the same way that American culture became very much anti-German during World War 2.

    2. I believe that the same ‘double-v’ holds true in the Spanish language as well. Both being Latin based languages, and English not, perhaps the letter ‘W’ was written differently outside of those Latin based languages. After all, you can write the letter ‘W’ as if it were two u’s and it still looks like the same letter. Much the same way that you can use different fonts to type up a paper using a word processing program. It could just be that it looked more like two U’s than two V’s, resulting in ‘double-u’.

    Me too! :mrgreen: ( :razz: )

    Agreed. It slows down the loading time as well. I’d like to think we have a quorum. But we’re the unwashed multitude, here.

    My dear hotforwords,

    Could please tell me the origin of the word lesbian?
    I’m not trying to be weird! I’m really curious!

    Thanks! I love your videos!

    Good point about 9/11, prospero811, conspiracy theorists seem to overlook that one. But a CT may answer back with, “No! The US gov’t just wants to keep a low profile so that people don’t get suspicious…”
    WTF? People are ALREADY suspicious, what difference would it make!

    Cheers :mrgreen:

  • wordlover

    OK, thanks! :grin:

    Personally, i hate almost all kinds of advertising, were bombarded with so much of it, it just gets infuriating, I don’t like anyone telling me I need to by this or that. The worse ones are those which say save $xxx now only $xxxxxx . Mostly those damn car adds. They think were stupid or something. You spend $xxxxxx, you sure haven’t saved $xxx, However if I can find a way to run it in the background with the sound off I’ll let them run. After all a girls got to earn a living , rIght?

    here’s an old high german text. you’ll see that some words have “uu” in it or start with “uu”. now, if you click on the graphic above (the book), you can listen to that text. mp3 and all. will sound like an english /v/ … but the engl. v is like the german w, that is, the german w sounds like an english v.

    oh, damnit.

    “Who’s there?”

  • koalabear

    Shouldn’t Youtube/Google be pushing a little coinage your way?

    You’re providing a a lot of content for them to wrap advertising around.

    Anyway that’s my 5 cents worth. We eliminated 1 and 2 cent coins in OZ a few years ago.

    The video doesn’t seem to appear, I will try again in an hour and again tomorrow.

    All the best.

  • prospero811

    Ads that require the viewer to do something to not be annoyed are not the best. I, personally, can deal with video running, but there are two kinds I absolutely hate: (a) the kind that pop up on your screen (either pop up ads, or those more ghostly varieties that are difficult or impossible to click off), and (b) things with sound. There is nothing more infuriating than clicking on a website and having some sound/voice start up. Then you have to stop what you’re doing, look for the button to click “off”, etc. And for those who might be at work, it is doubly troublesome.

  • melikadothechacha

    The first time, I thought I clicked something in error.

    melikadothechacha, it’s not YouTube.. it’s a company that say they will pay me 3 times what Google is paying me for that box which was like $1 per 1000 views. The video happens to be hosted on YouTube… but it has nothing to do with them. Can we just try it out for a little bit? It’s getting expensive for me to run this site and I need to make a little money to pay for the server hosting.

    If it gets unbearable, then I’ll pull it.

  • http://www.hotforwords.com Marina

    Oh.. they have it set to play once per hour.. I can have them change it to say once per every 5 hours.. or once a day.. but I make NO money if it doesn’t play. You can always stop it if it starts to play.. but I don’t know.. let me know if it ruins the experience.. maybe I can make it only play on the homepage.. let me look into that.

  • pennsyltucky9

    Okay, it looks as though the ad doesn’t run every time I reload (the page, not my shotgun, silly!).

    Thanks!

    Well, maybe I’m alone in this, but the video really didn’t bother me at all. I think if you can make money by putting those ads on your site then go for it. You have to get the money to run your site from somewhere right? Unless you want to start charging your students. :shock:

    that’s a great solution, Marina, but I worry that you’re leaving money on the table. maybe folks that are logged in could opt out with a cookie? that way you’ll still get paid for the folks that are logged in that don’t care if it plays.
    I think most of your students would agree with me: we want you to be wildly successful; we don’t want the experience to suck unbearably; we don’t want to have to pay for access (that would seem to run contrary to your mission); we’d be willing to compromise a bit, as long as we felt like we weren’t standing on a slippery slope.

    Sparta (now called Sparti) is located in a district called Laconia. If you watched the movie “300,” you might have noticed that the Spartan Hoplites bore on their shields a Lambda…their abbreviation for Laconia or Lakedaemon. They were men (and women) of few words. The famous saying of the Spartan mothers to their sons–”Come back with your shield or on it”–was, in reality, simply “With it or on it.” Rendered in Greek (phonetically) “E tan e epitas.”

Some underground racist groups in Russia and racist kids screaming at the camera in Germany. i would like the origin of the word “Racism.” i’m very sorry that the old continent is consuming itself with hate. i would also like to know how do say “Racist” in Russian, i could just google it, but it would be better to see your sexy lips say it…

    Actually the pay thing brings up the subject of obligation if it is directly related to an endorsement. Could cause difficulty & brings in lawyers, contracts & stuff which takes a lot of $$ meaning higher cost & more need & more obligation.
    Pay per view or pay for use implies entightlement, I think Marina has been & needs to continue to be very carefull not to give up control to outside interests & from what I see she doesn’t take orders from bullys & such, but uses her good judgement while experimenting with new ideas. She is fun to watch from almost any perspective.’nuf said.

    What did I miss??? I run a small business, now two. The last business coarse I went to I learned that pennies count at the end of the year. Add up all the pennies & see what you get. We used to give away free valves with every new tire. two years ago we started charging $1.50 each, some complained but not many @ the end of the first year it made a difference of $12,000 to our annual revenue. last year we charged $2.50 per & less complaints, we give great service & back up our products & treat customers like family & it works. The little add ons are neccesary to complete the total picture & cover all the little add ons that cost to run a succesful operation. So hit us hard Marina

    Sometimes Marina doesn’t answer, so if you want to look that up, it’s (onomatopoeia) I think.

    Uh, I got some important news for ya… Men never had a snowball’s chance in H… :shock:

    No, wait, I’m not allowed to disclose that. Proprietary information! Never mind! Pretend you didn’t see this! Uh-oh! Gotta go.

  • pennsyltucky9

    It’ll behoove ya to care for your uvula.

  • mistress9nine

    Hi Marina! I just thought of another strange expression: “sounds fishy”. Fish dont make sounds, thats silly! Why would anyone think that something sounds like nothing?

  • http://www.youtube.com/labbatt78 labbatt78

    I like to know what the origin of the word “pool” :?:

  • mistress9nine

    Isnt that because french nobles used to wear those redicilously big white wigs (ie: the ones with big wigs had the power). And it became poplular in many other countries I dont know about england but this could be it.

  • pennsyltucky9

    Don’t give us no lip about not being nosy. When you’re not busy being cheeky, your silence is downright eerie.

    Hi geronimo I was actually meaning to answer #2 Although I see now that I was unclear in my homework answer.
    On my race car there is one belt in the five point harness that I guess could be related to the #1 option. It’s called the “sub (Submarine) belt” attaches to the release buckle below the naval & the bottom end is fastend to the floor between the legs. Prevents my body from submarining under the steering wheel in the case of a heavy front end collision. trading a lesser pain instead of an ultimate pain. I’ve never actually said “I’m going to gird up my loins & drive it like i stole it,” but I could. Cheers

    No. Bees’ knees aren’t important. Unless you’re a bee, of course. But they are pretty dang tiny. So it’s a reference to something being perceived as “cute” instead.

    At least, that’s my impression.

  • http://captainjack.ws captainjack

    Hey Marnia, How about putting up a donation/share the expenses button. Have it post a goal to be reached for the month. I would put in a few $$$ into it. Or about this we pay to remove ads?

    I agree with turtlewax. I posted a similar solution but failed to read further down to see TW already had the idea.

    Like Billy, I to run a small business and Billy makes a valid point is a buck here and a buck there really ad up over time.

    If I knew what your business plan goals where I could better assist you. But that is private information that should not be released. You do have a BP? Or are you running this site as a hobby business?

    I’ll tell you what Marina, Shoot me an email of your basic idea of what HFW goal is. Is it larger business goal to make big time $$$, or just want to cover maintenance of the site? I’ll get you set up with some fantastic advisers to help you out for the type of business you wish to create. Best of all It will cost you absolutely nothing but your ears. They have helped me enormous times and I would have been dead in the water if it wasn’t for them. :smile:

    My sister’s boyfriend from Washington State calls me “Coalean” with the a being less stressed and the o as in Coke.

    My parents call me exactly as merriam websters online listening says, which is, quite literally, “Cawleen” with the “caw” portion sounding like a crow …

    here is the link
    http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/colleen

    and the contents of that site:

    Main Entry: col·leen
    Pronunciation: \kä-ˈlēn, ˈkä-ˌ\
    Function: noun
    Etymology: Irish cailín
    Date: 1828
    : an Irish girl

    the “o” portion of my name is more of an “ah” than an “oh” – like in the word cock, cocker spaniel, or calling.

    this site also has more pronunications:

    It’s not all about versions or propaganda. Some things are not just matters of opinion. At some point, reality loses all cohesion of logic and reason are thrown out the window. People who don’t believe the Americans went to the Moon (several times), for example, are not fed propaganda. They are willfully ignorant, and argue only from personal incredulity. They seek out the propaganda. They are no better than the “Flat Earth Society” and the “Young Earth Creationists.” They argue from ignorance, and not only that they purposefully seek or ignore reality.

  • pennsyltucky9

    Nice gravatar, turtlewax.

    No, I shot it myself. I love masks, especially from exotic cultures which have since been modernized. In this case, it’s not a mask, per se because there’s no way to wear it. It’s a whole skull. But what a gnarly trophy to hang up in your thatch-roofed living room! The crab pincers attach somewhere under the cheekbones and meet at the nose, so it reminded me quite a bit of the alien headhunter, “predator” from the movie if the same title. I had to have at least a photo of it. It will make a great painting or sculpture subject some day.

    BTW, my evil twin is gonna kick your ass if you mention her name again…

    Marina, дорогой учитель, I think the idea for you to teach some Russian language and customs, culture, etc., on a pay site has some merit and could be profitable for you. Please consider it? Also if enough of the other students here agree would that influence you? How about it class? What say you? How many of you would pay $5-$15 a month for a site where Marina would teach Russian language, customs and culture (even if no school credits would be possible)?

    INTERESTING QUESTION
    I am going to answer in a round about way because wherever you live in the world you will know someone of English descent. :grin:
    Sorry no Wiki used we just learnt this at school and police

    After the Vikings invaded us in 7th c we all inherited the German/Scand blonde hair from integral cross breeding.
    86% of Brits have some Viking descent by recent DNA tests.
    Anyway they were named after the professions they had. In those days the capital City of England was York not London.
    If you manufactured or forged metal you were a Smith.–from the verb to smite or to hit —(when hot of course to shape it) The main metal objects for forging in those days were knives. . So it’s easy to understand Smith. Later Silversmith, a Tinsmith, Goldsmith Platinumsmith and of course someone that forges black iron (mixed with coal) was a Blacksmith, In those days it was a very important profession and was the olde worlde equestrian version of a car dealer working on the iron horse shoes and repairing carriages. Centuries later the car was first called the horseless carriage, and the term hackney carriage still stands today as if it is a ‘fare paying carriage’ traditionally drawn by horses.. Long replaced by very odd looking (but beautiful) black taxi cabs. The law requires food and water for the horse to be kept in the boot (trunk for the US) even in a diesel taxi cab this law still stands today.
    Needless to say that it is never enforced ! :wink:
    Funnily enough the law compelling us to practice our archery for 2 hours on the village green every Sunday has never been withdrawn either.

    Most manufacturers of non metals had specific names , eg Cooper (barrelmaker) Fletcher (makes arrows) thatcher (makes straw roofs -they are were all straw once) Taylor (Tailor makes men’s clothes) Cobbler (makes shoes) Archer etc etc
    If you worked on something you were a Wright
    Some Wrights were called Wheelwright Wainwright etc

    In the remote parts of the country of Wales in Britain where the Vikings never reached they still speak the old indigenous language to Britain today (Welsh) there are only really traditional 3 surnames Jones Hughes and er ?
    So the people are called Jones Butcher or Jones Posty etc etc

    Alx can you come in on the German origins of the verb to smite ?

    Marina,

    I always thought that the expression “gird you loins” came from the King James translation of the Bible, specifically, the book of Job. Would it be better to find out what the original Hebrew express was to find the origin of the expression?

    2hot,

    Let’s not leap to conclusions.

    Hey, lots of people spread jam on their privates before trussing them up with scratchy twine or rusted baling wire. In fact, it gives the ants somewhere to party while one lies broken in a shell-hole. Very important to keep the nervous sytem jump-started while awaiting medevac, you know.

  • http://adlocutio.dnsdojo.net paulojlourenco

    @ worldlover: BION water IS rare. In the Iberian Peninsula (where I happen to live) water is the most precious thing. Most regions don’t have water all year. The temperatures can get close to 50 celsius in the summer with no atmospheric moist. Many regions only have water for about 5 hours a day in the summer months. Some, have no water at all unless the firefighters bring it to them.

    The problem is getting bigger each year. I don’t know if you heard but for Cataluña to have water the summers to come water must be transported by pipes from 60Km North.

    Just travel through the southern regions of the Peninsula and you’ll see vegetation very of deserts. Is that serious. It happened in just 20 years. And it’s like that in a lot of inhabited regions of this planet.

  • 2hotforwordsfanclub

    WL What I am trying to say what is reality ?
    How do you know it is reality and not just what governments are trying to make you believe by giving you bullshit as fact.
    I am from a long line of politicians and refuse to join because my experiences show me that most are as bent as Elton John.(but in the corruption sense of course)

    Prospero811 you are an extremely intelligent fellow by both definitions, knowledge and reasoning BUT my understanding of the word propaganda in this context is that this is the official information for which one is enticed to base their opinio. It is from all governments (US UK European Russian etc etc) who give false facts to distort public opinion to win over political points of view to achieve goals and votes for politicians.
    Just because the news tells you doesn’t make it so.

    It was definately not a stab at America (or any of it’s incredible achievements) I merely used it as an example of explaining to an American that we don’t necessarily have accurate data to formulate correct opinions because propaganda in that country doesn’t allow us to do so and that the opinion they have is not necessary fact as it is based on information that they may have accepted as fact through no fault of their own.

    Different governments give different slants. Propaganda is definately not seeked out by wilfully ignorant people as you say, it is given to us as fact.
    I have seen the media’s ‘viewpoints’ on the same subjects from many countries of the world they are all completely different, because they are distorted by propaganda of that nation.

    Maybe I should have used religion as an example. Some people believe their relevant religious book to be absolute fact but the truth is no one can validate any of them. But it doesn’t make any of them untrue. Was anyone there did they see it with their own eyes ?

    Hitler distributed a vast amount of propaganda in WW2 and the German people at the time accepted it as fact. Does anyone hold it against any German people today ? Of course not.

    Ok maybe you can understand an analogy against the Brits. When Britain invaded the continent of North America they nearly wiped out the indigenous population (and in Australia. Africa etc).
    Who were the ‘goodies’ in the films the cowboys or the ‘Indians’ ?

    Sorry if i offended some people there was no intention to do so.

  • 2hotforwordsfanclub

    Thanks I appreciate it.
    But I got a bit of a knock when get a message from someone that thinks I have a chip on my shoulder and that i an arrogant rude and condescending.
    Really wish that people knew me better.

    And another when I tragically offended many at the bottom by blabbing on about propaganda and was completely misunderstood on this. (and still am).

    Well put, 2hotforwordsfanclub. Although I wouldn’t say that NO ONE would “hold it against any German people today”. There are tons who believe many of the Nazi leaders are still alive (! — yeah, at like 120 years old…). Many blame the Germans of today for indifference to antisemitism—to wit, Sacha Baron Cohen (who, sadly, has no true wit…). It’s sad that Hitler did what he did, for many reasons, but a lesser admitted one being that it backfired on him. I’m sure you could get a better seat if you blamed the usher for being antisemitic—it’s THAT bad! But not EVERYWHERE, fortunately… Anyway, I digress (as usual).

  • wordlover

    Anyone else care to Taipei pun here?

    Yeah, but a BAD spoof: well, that’s different. S/he obviously WASN’T trying to flatter Marina.

    PS—I told you not to call me what? Факноз?

  • wordlover

    No, not done for. I would just word it: quadriguous and not quadribiguous as the -bi- bit is actually part of the ambi- prefix.

    Dearest Marina
    I have been watching this website for a month now :oops: but only subscribed today because I finally decided that I wanted to be part of the fun. :wink: :lol: :twisted: :grin:

    You seem to attract only the most knowledgeable jolly persons who try to share the benefits of each other’s wisdom because they have 2 common interests. :twisted: No offensive guys you normally have to endure on youtube :evil: but a highly educated multinational group of men and women that have been snared by your obvious charms :shock:

    It’s fantastic.

    Last time I saw theG4 introduction video I was really impressed.
    Consequently and subsequently I have seen all of your lessons and feel that I know you better ,and therefore wish you well.
    Today I watched the introduction video on HFW youtube channel ID again and I wept like baby for 30 minutes …on my kids life.

    I have just one thing to say to Marina shaking like a leaf with emotion and tears running down my face onto my keyboard
    GO BABY GO !!!!!

    She is the cheerleader !!! :lol:

  • 2hotforwordsfanclub

    Actually WL we are compelled by law to use the metric equivalent in everything except the mile in all sales and advertising etc. But this was only passed by statute because the entire nation refused to adapt like the French did many moon agos on April Fool’s day. (new year)

    Wordlover your knowledge is less extensive than I imagined.
    You thought that your masculine self would be the first to know that that all orgasmometers are manufactured in both the Metric Ooooh and the Imperial Aaaaah on a global basis. It isn’t a software version the toggle switch is on the left hand side.

    Mine has developed a fault it says ‘come on hurry up this battery only lasts 2 hours’.

    But that’s only one side of the coin; namely the reverse.

    Back to the obverse, let’s not subscribe to the philosophy “bitin’ and scratchin’ is most folks’ way of lovin’”. Okay, that’s a paraphrase, originally it’s “Biting and scratching is Scots folk’s wooing.”

    But I think you get my point. To be calumniated is NOT a sign that one is appreciated. Look at all the US presidents—if you dare!—all of them have been mocked and despised by someone, and that someone isn’t/wasn’t trying to curry favour with them either. Perhaps, by your reasoning, in shooting the president, Booth was trying to tell Lincoln “I love you” the best way he knew how. C’mon, that’s kookie talk! Don’t be such a Pollyanna!

    I would like to Taipei small correction .
    Just so that our non participating spectators don’t get confused Taiwan and Thailand are 2 very different countries

    Taipei is the Capital of Confusious’s retreat in Taiwan off the Chinese coast where I found dog is on every restaurant menu last year..
    Also in confusious times accumulation of knowledge was considered make one worthy of plotting against the monarchy. Marina will love this BION it was in fact a criminal offence punishable by death to read and write or possess a book in China. They hid them in the ornate pointed roofs.
    I’m sure that captainjack knows about this too.

    My master has let me out of my cage and gone for a squirt so I will explain for him in his absence.

    I was taking the extracting the urine from the silly word pavement ,
    I must say that sidewalk is so much more descriptive.. :wink:

    By definition a pavement must be paved with stones so how can it be paved in tarmac which doesn’t come in big slabs

  • tiger-the-vicious

    Nothing fishy about it at all. i wanted to observe
    I really was moved Marina is the most beautiful and intelligent witty lifeform that ever walked this earth ,
    I wish her well, and cry and shake with the excitement of her blatently impending success which I believe me has barely even started.

    The 2 common interests are our passion for words and admiration of Marina what else could they be

    What do you call a deer with no eyes and no legs ?

  • sniperskaya

    Messin-potamia?

  • sniperskaya

    I think you mean “gift of gab”, not “gap”. Gab means to talk a lot, it’s a short form of “gabby”.

  • sniperskaya

    Marina, дорогой учитель, I’m curious to know: what are some of the common expressions and colloquialism’s that American and Russian cultures have in common? What do you like best about being in America and what do you miss the most by not being in Russia?

  • Bob

    Welcome to the fold Tiger; maybe you can help keep the wolves from the door. :smile:
    Are you any relation to Sid Vicious?
    I think Marina likes the Sex Pistols; at least she was wearing one of their T-shirts in a video a long time ago.

    I answered your “deer” riddle over there.
    I too have been emotionally moved posting here at the website, been angry, sad, melancholy, ticked, & enjoyed good music links. A whole different dimension that didn’t exist a few years ago. Is it real? I’m older than most here, so I didn’t really think a lot about this dimmension before, although other dimmensions I have contemplated.
    I did’t mention the happy or laughing emotions, I didn’t really have a passion for words as some here seem too but there are some excellent writers in my family of whom I’m a tad jealous. So I try to write & be understood & while I relate stuff from my life I realize that my life wasn’t as boring as I thought, & HFW.com is not boring unless I go on&on…
    So that being said I laugh with you & weep with you & wish Marina all the success that is due & with the lessons taught & learned may she find peace in her soul & not compromise the integrity that shines through in what she shares with us. ‘nuf said…

    You certainly make a first impression!

    the word list and the 158+ videos.
    If you need links, just ask.

    I feel you; on the Heroes catharsis;

    Uhh..bathrooms down the hall
    if you want to clean up.
    You may be sensitized at some
    level us mongo-men types
    see as “too deep”. The movie
    “Bedazzled” comes to mind.
    Brendan Frazier portrays the
    extreme example of sensitivity.

    Don’t Panic! We can help you
    get through this, and beef up
    your word-origin confidence.
    Sorry, I can’t do it for you,
    it’s something you have to
    do your own. See, we’re all
    engaged in healthy rivalries,
