Where does love come from? And why is love in tennis equal to zero?

    The idea of Love = 0 was one of more frequent unsolved doubts, now not.

    By the way, Love is not so universal, in Spanish they call it Amor.Totally different form Love origin.

    Wow, great etymological work, Marina! Following that historical thread all the way back to the Proto Indo-European and Sanskrit gives us a very complete understanding of the change over time aspects, and your delivery is so smooth and understandable! 5 stars! You’ve set a new standard in your teaching with this one. Very professional!

  • Bob

    What can one say?
    There just is no excuse for complaining about your lot when you live in places like USA, Canada, UK etc.

  • capman911

    I couldn’t agree with you more on her presentation and professionalism. ***** :cool:

  • mistress9nine

    I love how in my language nothing is the same as in other European ones, since Hungarian is not an Indo-European language, even though we live in the heart of Europe. Love is “szeretet” or “szerelem” in the noun form, and “szeretni” or “szerelmesnek lenni” in the verb form.

  • mistress9nine

    Word request: “coach” (bus). And while youre at it: are coaches realted to the coaches of sports teams?

  • mistress9nine

    Hmmm, its way too much “the Iraq war should not be frowned upon propaganda”. I agree that they have a tough time out there but the “clutches to his cross” and “protects my right to…” are sooo off topic hidden republican bullcrap.

  • Bob

    You’re missing the point of the video, mistress9nine.
    Save your rage for the politicians who send the troops out there and learn to appreciate how lucky you are.

    Dear Teacher,

    Recently discovered you on YouTube, and have enjoyed your lessons tremendously… as much for the content as the presentation. :wink:

    I run a guitar community website, where we get into some rather deep discussions on anything related to our instrument. I’m hoping you’ll take on the origins of the word, “guitar”, and enlighten us with your usual panache and inimitable style. We thank you!

    Hi Marina,

    I’d like to request the word “bureaucrat”. Hope you get time to look into it!

    Thanks,

    Aonghus

  • damaxterpiece

    yeah i was in a tennis team and i always wondered why love meant 0…now i know and i was mentioned wooooow….lol…but i was wondering the origin of “commando” or ” commander” because why would you say ” i am going commando” ..meaning i am going out without underwear…..what those a commando have to do with underwear…lol

  • troublemaker1991

    Dear Marina, I have a word request to make and that word is ‘kidnap’.
    I believe it might prove to be rather interesting as it contains the words ‘kid’ and ‘nap’. My lucky guess is that at some period of time, kids were snatched when they were taking a nap and so the word ‘kidnap’ was created. Is that true?

    And by the way, as for the homework on this video :D

    ‘σε αγαπάω’ (often written like ‘σ’αγαπώ’) pronounced like ‘se agapo’ (or ‘s’agapo’) is ‘I love you’ in Greek and ‘σε λατρεύω’ pronounced like ‘se latrevo’ is for ‘I adore you’. Moreover, the word ‘αγάπη’ is the Greek word for ‘love’ and it’s pronounced like ‘agape’.

    Σε λατρεύω Μαρίνα (that means Marina btw :P) :mrgreen: :roll: :razz:

  • capman911

    I am sorry you feel that way. :sad: My only intention was to show that we need to love these men and women too no matter what they are doing. They were not asked to go there they were ordered to go there. All countries and nations that are represented by these men and women need our love and support.:sad:

  • capman911

    Maybe I shouldn’t have put up this video. But it tore into my heart how we think of these men and women doing this deadly job and scoffing at them when it should be the polititions that are the blame. I am sorry if it offends anyone. :sad:

    Hello.
    What is the origin of the word “1337″ (elite)?
    I’d be glad if you could find it out for me :)

    Homework:

    Love in norwegian is “Kjærlighet”.
    I think it’s a beautiful word :) Too bad you can’t hear how it’s pronounced. Maybe you can look it up yourself :)

    Thanks, Veldiz.

  • roadrunrnch

    I think that Love is a very misunderstood word. Love should be and is Respect, And has nothing to do with Sex at all. You can have Sex with anything. You can buy Sex, You can not buy Love. It is true that only Fools fall in Love. Fall? More like fail in Love. Love / Hate are the same, ok let me ………They are both extreme emotions. If You do not care about a person, will you / could you Kill them?

    In french we say “amour” for “love”, “aimer” for “to love” et “je t’aime” for “i love you”.

That’s love on a demonstrated level, not words alone. Thanks capman911

    Wow that was truly deep my friend. I know exactly how those guys feel. I remember mail call was like the one thing that kept me going. My sister would make her own cartoon cards. Very funny stuff. Then there was my former girlfriend ‘Sarina Sandal’ from Sidney,Australia. She was a professional model, and made a few car soap commercials. Yes Mike they where awesome commercials! Cut off jeans and pink shirt. She would write to me often. We lost contact over the years. Sad… :sad: I left my heart in Sidney, Australia.
    Care package where great. That was the Holy Grail of mail call. Of course you had to share will your fellow shipmates. I ask to have my care packages sent with large box of thing for the guys and a small one inside just for me.
    I didn’t have it as bad as infantrymen. I lived and worked on a ship that had a very nice galley (two lunch lines), Ships store, Ship gee-dunk store (candy and magazines). 2 closed circuit TV channels with movies on them. Movie night in the mess hall on film projector. Weigh room. No pool or hot tub :cry: Though we heard that the Russian’s had a hot tub on one of their ships. So yea I had it rather good at the Navy Hilton. Still no privacy and gang fights where common. It got so bad the Navy opened a Naval Investigation Service (FBI) onboard the ship. 2 people where almost killed, including me. The heck with worrying about the Gulf war, worry about your shipmates killing you. Yea so mail call was fantastic when your name was called. Some days your name wasn’t called. Those where sad days. I wrote a lot of letters and I think some people just where too busy to write back. Make you wonder what is really important in life?
    Thanks for the vid Mike.

    So why do you guys think this video was 5 star? What was it you liked about this lessons performance?

  • http://www.zenithmaritime.com/ captainjack

    My feelings is at least they are going out there to help people. Not like when I was in service to protect OIL TANKERS. What honor is that? When my battleship was under attack I really was thinking, “Why am I risking my life for damn OIL?” I DID NOT get a heroes welcome when I returned. It was a failed war by Bush Sr. So for the guys that are there now fighting to help protect people my hats is off for them. There is much honor in that. I’m supporting the troops and not the republican’s ignorance.

  • melora

    Here’s a request for more than a word or phrase. You mentioned the Indo-European origins of the word “love.” I would like to hear more about Indo-European roots and other words that contain them.

  • HerMajestyOfficer

    Why do people keep confusing it? OK that’s easy…First Country names are different by one letter. Second flags are almost the same, again difference appears only in coat-of-arms; you have some kind double cross(St. Cyril and St. Methodius legacy I think :)) and we have 3 things in our coat-of-arms:our highest mountain(Triglav), 3 stars(reffers to counts of Celje) and wavy lines(lakes and sea). Furthermore in our native language we address ourselfs as “slovenci” or with adjective “slovensko(i)” as you also(for this i’m not sure, could be wrong though)

    About Slovenia and Slovakia …they surely derive from Slavonia(we use just name for nation-”Slovani”-english “Slavs”)

    If we look back in history, (present-day) Slovaks, Czech(Bohemian???) and Slovenes together as one group left area of Dnjeper and Dniester(Ukraine, present-day) and went towards west.

  • http://www.zenithmaritime.com/ captainjack

    For my Homework (as I rarely do them): As my Greek girlfriend would say; Agape, αγάπη. Meaning ‘Love’.
    The Greeks have many different words for Love. In Ancient Greek language. It has three distinct words for love: Eros, Philia, and agape. However, it has been historically difficult to separate the meanings of these words.
    Eros means ‘Romantic Love’
    Phillia means ‘Friendship’ in modern Greek
    Agape means ‘Love’
    There is also Storge meaning ‘affection’ and Thelema meaning ‘Desire’.

    As my Philippine girlfriend would say in Tagalog language, ‘Sinta’ meaning Love. If girl formally accepts the man’s love, they are boyfriend and girlfriend we get ‘magkasintahan’ I found when I was learning Tagalog that is was an easy and fun language to learn.

    One thing I like with other languages that you don’t see with English is little over use of a word. Like the French have 7 different words with different meanings for the word love. In English you just can use the word ‘Love’ alone without putting it into a sentence to find out its meaning by the contents of that sentence. The rules of English are just plain ignorant.

    (This paragraph is not directed to you. More so to the group)
    So how can I be expected to use proper English when the system that develops it is flawed? As I said before who has the authority to make a rule how a word is spelled and how a sentence is structured?

    I didn’t realise how alike Tagalog and Indonesian/Malay are, though it is logical that such close neighbours might have much in common.

    You asked: As I said before who has the authority to make a rule how a word is spelled and how a sentence is structured?

    Answer: God alone, whether you think so or not, God alone, we can make them up, but God alone has the actual authority over everything in all existence, because He is Omnipresent, Omniscient, and Omnipotent. Omni = all, present (in this case) = everywhere present, Omniscient = all-knowing (but in this case knows infinitely about every subject, because His understanding is infinite [Psalm 147:5 in the Bible] and last, but certainly not least He is Omnipotent = all-powerful or Almighty……..wouldn’t you say HE has the authority?

    Hello all,

    I just found this site a few weeks ago and I have to say I’ve been having a lot of fun just watching the videos and reading the comments. I finally decided to ask for an explanation of the word “Finial.”

    One of my hobbies is doing Medieval recreation in the SCA and just last year I was able to purchase my first period pavilion and I am going to use some table legs I found for the finials. **got the idea from walking around Home Depot for a couple of hours… :twisted: **

    Anyway, I’m curious as to the origin of the word “Finial” and especially what was it’s original purpose? Was it merely for ornamentation or did it have a practical use, such as helping to keep rainwater from entering through the tent pole holes. My opinion is that it had some practical purpose although I’ve never been able to find any documentation to support that.

    I look forward to your comments on the subject.

    Take care,

    Rick

    God is love. I would very much like to know more about the origin of the word God and how we got it (the name that is) and how we associate that name with a guy up in Heaven that just floats around with a bunch of angels as opposed to what He really is – a Spirit that is everywhere at the same time and that has a Son named Yeshua who loves us very much and cares for our well-being as well as our friends, loved ones and as well as the rest of our cares. How did we turn someone so holy into someone that doesn’t even exist – if He didn’t – how do we even now?

  • BillyB

    1960 CS Lewis wrote The Four Loves to try & explain the inadequicies of the one word for love, a respected piece of literature in & outside of christian communities. Ulysses by James Joyce has an interesting take on “Four Loves, No loves”.
    I’m still out on whether swahili has a word for Love or at least a deeper word than “like a lot” or “affection”. also lacking is a word for depression, as in the mental (medical) condition. No “Bored”.
    The Japanese, I discovered have lots of words for love, but culture dictates not using the term for “romantic Love” in public, although that seems to be changing.

    Hello dear teacher. I’m a fan of medieval-style combat movies, and I’ve noticed that a lot of the time people refer to releasing an arrow as “firing” the bow. But I would think that you could only “fire’ a firearm, and you would loose a bow.

    Is it just Hollywood using modern language and not expecting a super nerd like me, or was the term “fire” used for ranged weapons before muskets became common?

  • Qermaq

    “Coach” (as a bus) comes from the Hungarian “kocsi”, meaning “a wagon from Kocs, Hungary”, which fltered through German, French and Middle English. A human coach also transports a student through learning and training, so yes, they are related in origin.

    By any definition of the word Marina (except for zero) I love you. All you need IS love. Love is like oxygen. Love lifts us up where we belong. Love Love Love Love, it’s easy. Love Love Love Love, it’s easy. What can I say, John and Paul had it right, not the apostles, the Beatles. Love and peace tothe Universe and my bank account.

    I wish I could tell you what I know other that what you read in the newspapers. All I can say is the gates will be locked up soon as per request of the American people. The freedom we had to enter or leave the US is no longer. For example, You have to clear customs to go from one island to the next in the San Juan Islands. San Juan Islands is part of the US and is part of the state of Washington. You can go from island to island without leaving the country. But now you have to clear Customs and border protection to travel. Also as a pilot project they are scanning yachts in Seattle, Wa for background radio activity. A bunch of bananas can set off the detectors because of the potassium in them which is radio active.
    immigration laws are stricter that they ever have been before. Well for some borders.

    Anyone want the true reason we have Love? No? Ok I’m going to tell you anyways. Love is the effect of a chemical reaction in our brains. I love my Dopamine! I have some excess Prolactin if any small breasted woman wants it? The less I have the more women want me.

    You know this brings up an interesting question I had with a new friend I made in the game ‘Second Life’. Why is it below average intelligent people have more babies than people with above average intelligence? This seems to go against the survival of the fittest theory.

  • http://www.zenithmaritime.com/ captainjack

    @ RR,
    This is a good example where the poor use of the English language breaks down and cause confusion. In your context your using the word ‘Like’ and ‘Love’ as a form of measurement. My guess is that your the only one who knows when to switch from Like to Love. Then the other context you mention you not need to like someone but are able to love them. So are we connecting the word ‘Like’ with measurement of one feelings for someone and measurement of someones personality maybe? There are many people I really don’t like but I do respect them for what they do. So I see that the two words are used as a form of measurement of something.
    To love someone you do not respect might be because your addicted to the drug dopamine and occurs naturally in our brains. We want the feels that love gives us but we no longer respect the person we are in love with. I think respect is not an emotional feeling and love is. Being in love is linked to a chemical reaction and respect is linked to mental thought.

    Did I make any sense? If not maybe someone else here could better elaborate than I did. RR thanks for asking that question. I have not put that much thought into those words before. It was interesting. :grin:

    I wonder why would someone would get legally married to something. To what benefit? There is a guy who was in love with his horse.
    Is society so frustrated with the opposite sex that they have to resort to something different? Hummm… Maybe…Why is this happening. My guess its the break down of our families and values.

    Hey, Marina, it’s Shawn again!! and I just wanted to point you to something – http://www.studylight.org if you have any words in English that come from Greek such as agape or poimen (which means Shepherd) you can go on this site and find any word in Greek and Hebrew in which you would want to find all the range of meanings and see what they meant in the Bible days (koine Greek) remember Daniel? (God is my judge?) Also, (besides Whitesmoke, dictionary.com and cocomment), what else could you point us to that would be beneficial to our accessing the meanings of words, grammar, and other languages, and that you use so we can get in on the goods as well, m’lady? hmm…. m’lady is that middle english? or ooooold and decrepit english? or maybe even borderline codger English?

    Hey PD, Yea I would like to hear them. We seem to pay attention to Marina’s lessons for a spell then we end up discussing other things. I have not heard Marina or other say otherwise. I guess if we stay way from politics and religion we are ok.

    PD do you have my email addy? If not just go to my website http://captainjack.ws and fill out the contact page. I’ll email you back with my addy.

    People call ‘Second Life’ a game which it kind of is right now because its sort of a beta version now. But many companies are using it for true business uses. For example many LEGO employees use it to design new toys or programs for toys in the VR (Virtual Reality) world of SL and then copy the code directly to the toy for production. I myself plan to start a school there for people who want to get a captains license or learn how to operate a boat.
    You can meet lots of people and do all kind of people things. Yes even sex. You would be a mazed of what people think up. And the last count I found for the ratio of women to men was 3 to 1. Guys don’t like the world of SL because there is very little shooting and blowing things up. You will find this to be true because of the numerous number of stores catered to women’s clothing and very little for men. I had to visit a store for gay guys to find and good clothing.
    I really think that this VR thing is the replacement of webpages or Web 2.0 as we know it. VR is the new internet.
    If you download the program and make though the instructions let me know and I’ll come visit you ‘In world’ and give you a tour. Please be prepared to be blown away in amazement. I sure was.
    I’ll offer this invitation to anyone who is new to SL and would like to have someone they can trust to give them correct information. Just like any back ally in the real world there are some not so good people. Just remember its only VR and your not going to die.
    PD email me if you have more questions about SL. I heard Marina has downloaded the program but has not said a second word about it.

  • nevermore1000

    In Persian it’s dust or ‘eshq. The word dust can mean either “like” or “love”; ‘eshq means only “love”, but has different connotations. It might almost be better translated as “romance”.

  • roadrunrnch

    Measurement? Of …. How. I think you are mixing Love with Lust,
    When a Man tells the Teach, I Love You, Does he in fact love her or does he lust for her? I think the later. But he was told as a child this feeling is love, And you need to have her, Love Her.

    The word “LOVE” is a catch all. Like extreme, If everything is extreme, then nothing is extreme. I Love Sunsets?? Do you…Love Sunsets or do you like them. Mostly… I think some
    are in Love with being in Love and the other person just gets in the way.

    All thought is emotion, Maybe not emotional. So to put it in a thought, Love without respect is lust.

  • troublemaker1991

    Hey captainjack, I just wanted to say that your Greek girlfriend is right about these words :D

    Έρως or Έρωτας (in modern Greek) meaning Romance, Romantic Love and it’s pronounced like Eros / Erotas as you mentioned above.

    Αγάπη is for Love and it’s pronounced like Agape.

    Φιλία meaning friendship is pronounced like Philia and in ancient times also meant Love. An example of a word that contains the word Φιλία would be Παιδοφιλία, which contains the two words Παιδί for child and Φιλία for Love and it means Pedophilia.

    Στοργή meaning affection is sort of pronounced like Storge, but I suppose most of the people who read this would pronounce it like Forge. The letter ‘γ’ (gamma) is pronounced a bit differently like g. I’m afraid you will have to hear it from me to learn it :P

    Finally, the word Θέλημα (pronounced like Thelema) does not really mean Desire. It mainly means to want something rather than desire. In other words, I would not use the word Θέλημα if I wanted to say Desire in Greek. I would probably use the word Επιθυμία pronounced like Epethemia meaning Desire or wishing to have something, but I would prefer the word Πόθος pronounced like Pothos meaning Desire or wanting something really badly.

    And btw, I dont want to brag and please dont get me wrong :P, if you look at many of these comments there are loads of word requests in which the words arrive from Greek. For example the word Etymology (Ετυμολογία) comes from 2 Greek words: Έτυμος meaning initial origin of a word and the word Λόγος for word, so it means to find the initial origin of a word.

  • pennsyltucky9

    Hi, Bob.

    I think some copy editing is necessary in your comment. Let’s get the word “talent” out of there and replace it with “practice time” instead. Now I’ll admit that some seem to have more natural aptitude for certain things than other people do, but 1.) the sensibilities we develop from contact with others as tiny humans growing up into children and then into adults and 2.) the passion we bring, the committment we apply, and the sheer amount of time we spend practicing becomes what others will eventually see as “talent.” That’s my view looking back on 40+ years of guitar playing. But you have to start developing that area of the brain well before age 15 or so for it to work best. After puberty, ‘other things’ start to predominate the mental processes. It all changes.

    If you enjoy Paco, you might check out Al DiMeola (one of his students, I believe) who used to accompany Chick Corea’s Return To Forever band. Also, investigate a flamenco duo called Strunz and Farah. They are truly incredible. First time I heard them I was convinced it was Paco deLucia and Al DiMeola trying to one-up each other. Fasten your seat belt, though.

    I can obviously see that you’re calling God a liar and that you don’t have good grammar skills, the “City of Atlantis” has nothing to do with reality, and that you are really in desperate need for The Lord your God, whom you can’t even realize or see yet because you’re blinded by sin, the world, your flesh and your own selfish pride to see the things that God has in store for you – it’s clear to me.

  • http://www.zenithmaritime.com/ captainjack

    Roadrunrnch,

    No I see Lust as a different word as with a physical attraction.
    I too am bothered when someone just says I love you to someone they hardly know. I don’t say ‘I love you’ until I really do have some feelings for the person. I think some boys are using the word love when they should be saying ‘I lust for you’. But then I would get mad at someone saying that.
    Your right RR that the word ‘Love’ has become a catch all. Thats what makes English difficult for me. Like in math 2+2=4 and always will equal four. You can’t changes its meaning without breaking mathematical rules. You just can’t say 2+2=16 for today. No! Can not do that. Period.
    I don’t agree that “All thought is emotion”. I think they are seperate as I understand it.
    “Love without respect is lust.” Hum yea I can see that. Which reminds me of a common statement women would say to me before sex. “Will you respect me in the morning?” Now maybe I should be asking the same question.

  • micheldiego

    shawnmnorris you can’t be at the same time omniscient and omnipotent. If you are omniscient you know in advance what you are going to do, so you can’t be omnipotent, you have no choice, you know what is going to happen, no potent at all. Anyway have you already thought about the concept of god beeing omni-something? Omnipresent? it means then for example that god is also in hell, a place usually defined by the abandon of god and the absolute evil, is in fact impossible. Omnipotent, it means that god if he wants can do something wrong. Can he? etc etc…. Try to figure out by yourself all the contradictions inherent to these absolutes by themself or together. And don’t run away from reflection using something like “the ways of god are….” instead of thinking.

  • Bob

    Wow, a Marina doll.

  • micheldiego

    Augie, of course god does not exist. It only exist in the faith people put in it. Let just suppose that god has an actual existence, that you could somehow “test” him, then you will know instead of believe in god. The religions can only work by belief in something unknowable, or inexistent, and it is called faith.

  • micheldiego

    Hi capman, I noticed two things in the video:

    - Suffering and sacrifice are considered as vertues. This is a very christian cultural position who originate in Saint Paul of Tarsus. If you are interested in an oposite point of view you can read Nietsche on religion, in his critic he says that religion leads to giving value to the suffering and weakness, instead of valuating strength.

    - The video does not at any time say that some of the “usual” people “home” could have some vertue, nor that some of the “extraordinary” people “on the front” could have some defect. By oposing so sharply these two kinds + the visual of the uniforms and combat scenes it makes the “heroes” extraordinary.

    These two things should be contradictory, a weak, suffering, sacrificed kind of christian saint is here at the same time an extraordinary strong soldier. Perhaps it is what touched you so much: kind of superhero with a human weakness, at the same time soldier and saint.

    Teacher there are several problems with this theory:
    - You have to be two to love. If the two players were playing for nothing why then calling a score like 15-love, 30-love, 40-love? Should not be love-love all the game long? Since love is only called when in fact the score is called means they are not playing “for love”
    - If the scoring 0 were coming from “for love”, why just in tennis? Why not 3-love in football (soccer) or rugby?
    - Tennis is from french Tenez, Racquet is from french racquette, Ace is from french As, Deuce is from french Deux le jeu, but Love is english, why?

    Hey Cap’n,
    good points on your post.
    I find (not knowing all the rules myself
    in English) that it seems limited only
    by it’s usage and or user. Compared
    to other languages wheres a great amount
    of inferrence is required as situational
    requiates infer. Less clarity,
    bad poetry. Like anything I think it’s
    how one does it.

    Procreation is the base or primal urge.
    Maybe that is why more or less educated
    peoples procreate more than less. I have
    planned to have no children. I mentor for
    many so I have many.

    The US govt. pays welfare people to have
    more childrens. I bet many of them don’t have
    any or many books in the home. Mom was a school
    teacher and she would speak on the difference
    between children depending on what kind of
    family environment the child sourced from.

    Teach your children well. CSN&Y

    And shawnmnorris the word Σε can not be really translated into English (at least I think so, I am no expert, but I might know some stuff that could prove useful:D) but it’s used in Greek when you are addressing to someone personally and directly. For example ‘Μιλάω σε σένα’ means ‘I am talking to you’. You might say that the word ‘Σε’ could mean ‘to’ but only when you are addressing to someone else face to face. So it has nothing to do with the french Ce meaning ‘that’, I know that for sure, cause the word ‘Σε’ is used in ancient Greek texts as well, so I dont suppose it’s French :razz:

    The word ‘love’ is the most overused and least understood in the dictionary. It’s
    so similar in so many languages that it must be one of the most ancient human concepts, but what does it mean? We live for it, cry for it and even die for it, but can any of us define it? Poets and artists muse on it endlessly but none have ever pinned it down. It’s what makes us and breaks us, but we can never know it. On the other hand, lust is easily understood but almost taboo. This is a mystery that no philololololologist can explain. Or can you?

    Hi Marina,

    I’d like to ask you to search for the origin of the word “nylon”. Someone told me it is a shorten form for “now you loose old nippon”. It’s right ?

    I love you!!!

  • micheldiego

    redhorse, my point is that you can’t phisically meet god (or the devil) in person. Of course you speak metaphorically you suppose taht I could meet the idea of god, that is the belief of god. This is of course possible (even easy) to anyone. But if you actually meet “him” then it means the relationship you have with”him” is no more a relation of faith and believe (a religious sentiment) but a “normal” relation, with the knowledge there is no faith possible. My point is that by “knowing” god you “kill” faith, a religion where you could speak and see or have a physical experience of your god will not be a religion which is based on belief.
    If you want to have some more clues anout what I’m speaking about try to figure out why “god” forbid to eat from the tree of knowledge, and why once man knows and sees god for what it is, he could no longer remain in Edenand has to move to a place where he can’t see him.
    Then if you prefer the new testament you can also search for any follower of Jesus calling him god. You will notice that during the perios where Jesus was physically present noone called him “god”. The only citation you will find curiously is from the more sceptical of the apostles Thomas, but it is a mistake in the translation, as discussed by many specialist the current translation “you are my god” is one of the many possibles translations and is very unlikly.

    Take a look at this: http://www.studylight.org/isb/bible.cgi?query=ps+139%3A8&section=1&it=kjv&oq=Ps%2520139%3A8&ot=bhs&nt=na&new=1&nb=ps&ng=139&ncc=139

    I dare you both to 1. Read that scripture and to 2. Trust in Christ so you don’t have to go to the second place it talks about. It’s not funny, nor is it a figurative place.

    God made hell and He created it not for men, but for the Lucifer and his angels because they rebelled against God. God was there before everything else existed, and I’m not making those words up – you can even find them here: (omnipotent)http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/omnipotent
    (omniscient)http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/omniscient
    and (omnipresent) http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/omnipresent – I’m not makin’ this up, folks and don’t take it figuratively if you wanna fight take it up with my judge – God Himself (Jesus Christ, Yeshua Ha Meshiach) God is omnipresent, so I would say that if He weren’t to exist in one place He wouldn’t exist at all – so then God does exist in hell as well – no joke! By the way you said it’s impossible? All things are possible with God!! There is nothing too impossible for Him. http://www.studylight.org/isb/bible.cgi?query=bed+in+hell&section=1&it=kjv&ot=bhs&nt=na&Enter=Perform+Search I’m not kidding and God is not just some kind of figurative oh I thought of this concept and I’ll call it God – why for so many centuries have so many people debated over the existence of God? I’ll tell you why – because He’s real and if you would have the decency in your heart to call out to His Son Jesus Christ He would save you from eternal torment in hell. I’m not trying to put you down, I’m showing you that God has to punish sin and sinners, but if you receive His Son Jesus whom He sent us then you’ll have eternal paradise, not eternal damnation. I’m doing this to express God’s love in a comprehensible manner, not to condemn you only you can justify or condemn yourself – and either one by your own words: ( http://www.studylight.org/isb/bible.cgi?query=mt+12:37&it=nas&ot=bhs&nt=na&sr=1 ) you have a choice – to be justified before God in His way, or to be condemned in your own way – the wrong way (and by the way there is a right and there is a wrong and you can know the difference if you follow Christ for the rest of your life, forsake yourself, your life and take up the cross) All I’m saying is that there is a God in Heaven who sent His Son Jesus to die on a cross for us and if you would ask God sincerely from your heart to show you He’s real – He’ll do it!!! http://www.studylight.org/isb/bible.cgi?query=mt+21%3A21&section=2&it=nas&oq=mt%252012%3A37&ot=bhs&nt=na&new=1&nb=mt&ng=12&ncc=12 but you have to confess Jesus with your mouth and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead and you’ll be saved! http://www.studylight.org/isb/bible.cgi?query=Romans+10%3A9&section=2&it=nas&oq=mt%252021%3A21&ot=bhs&nt=na&new=1&nb=mt&ng=21&ncc=21 – it may have sounded harsh, but the real gospel is a very real thing, not something to be taken lightly. God is who He says He is – believe HIm, not me.

    Also when you die and see Him you’ll know exactly why all those things happened in your life, because you’ll see God and He will tell you, but if you don’t let Jesus be the Lord of your life (i.e. not you anymore) then it’ll be too late and you’ll have to suffer the consequences. I’m telling you before it is too late, and so you can escape these: the fire of hell, sin, misunderstanding and eternal damnation. So you don’t have to fight anymore and so we can all have peace with one another and love one another – isn’t that what so many people have been desiring, but haven’t had like say…..Israel? God’s own chosen people? Come on, people this is immature and misunderstanding – don’t mistunderstand what I’m saying – get understanding, not from me, however, from the Lord your God. Won’t you? Won’t you finally admit and actually take into account what He says instead of your hard-heartedness and your doubts? Please, do your duty as the creation and sumbit to the Creator – the Lord God Almighty – no one else.

    Hey shawnmnorris I just read your first paragraf and noticed a huge mistake in the translation you are using of Psalm 139. I will read the rest of your post latter, will just coment Psalm 139. “if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.” is a wrong translation from the hebrew or greek. You can look for example in Collier’s encyclopedia that “She’ol” which is the original hebrew name of the place here refered as “hell” was a place where the dead were resting but without any caracterisation of “good” or “evil” place, and looks like the greek “hades” of most of the greek versions. It is definitivly not the hell, and translating it as hell is a huge mistake. Most of the translations of the bible use “seol” or “sh’ol” or abism or other-world, which is much more apropriate.
    As you see I am speaking about words and their meaning. It was also the case when I wrote about faith and belief, but aparently you did not read it this way, or are not interested in undestanding the word and the concept of faith itself, please feel free to have a big breath and read me again, you will see that it does not say belief is wrong or good, it says it is incompatible with knowledge, which is something most of the religious thinkers will agree with.
    Now about hades, scheol and hell it will be really interesting in looking to the etymology and history of these words and concepts. I guess that the transition between hades and hell is somewhere between the old and the new testament. The concept of judgement and hell are in fact pretty recent (the concept and the words, I’m here speaking about etymology).

    Yeah you can read…listen poncho, just a little tip: why don’t you ask: can “one” love their parents and not like them? Of course “one” can, and your question suggests personal information about your relationship with your parents, and believe me I don’t want  to know.  Can parents love their children and not like,them?  Interesting question following what you brought-up & I like the logic and discussion & your thought pattern.

    As far as typing to strangers it just sometimes crosses a line I guess, this time it did.  There are things that I would never say, request, type convey to Marina, or anyone in such a public forum–don’t want to know & definitely won’t ask.

    Yeah, ‘some are removed enough’ I’m not, buddy.  That means in this forum there are things off topic.  If you were a friend of mine I’d buy you many rounds of drinks & tell you exactly what I think (have thought) about my parents if it took six hours great have a shot. have ten.  But you asked if I ‘like’ my parents and you just don’t have any idea. 

    Want to start a philosophical discussion, great!  But you asked if I ‘like’ my parents & you just don’t have any idea:  ok short answer weighing all percentages & balancing all the years–yelp.

    pennsyltucky9,
    If you feel like answering this I’d appreciate it but if not that’s fine.
    This is a long winded question.

    I finally looked up the word “philology” expecting to see a picture of Marina as an example of a “philologist”.
    But instead it said that it was the study of language and literature.
    Then I looked up “etymology” and that is where Marina’s picture should be since it seems that this is what she teaches.
    So, I don’t understand why this is considered “philology” when we’re learning “etymology”.
    “Philology” and “linguistics” seem related and “etymology” is a comparative study of ‘linguistics”.
    As one who has studied Anthropology (culural or physical?) you must have been exposed to the study of various languages.
    “Philology”, “linguistics” and “etymology” must be considered a scientific study for each specific branch so why are they interchangeable?

    I see what you’re saying, micheldiego, but your theory on faith is utterly incorrect Biblically. The reason in Hebrews 11:1 in the New Testament (koine Greek): Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. So what it’s saying (and it goes on to talk about it more exegetically afterward) is that faith is the assurance of the unseen or things you can’t see, but are there. Also I hope one day to become a Christian linguist and actually be able to read all of the words in both the Hebrew and the Greek of the Old and New Testaments without any help from man or man’s teaching, but God’s. Another by the by is that the Holy Spirit Himself is teaching me Japanese so I can minister spiritually to the lovely people of Japan – no joke. Sorry to burst your bubble about God not being real, but I didn’t even fully know until I asked Jesus to save me and the Holy Spirit to indwell in me and now I know for fact that He’s real. The mystery of speaking in other toungues as the Holy Spirit gives utterance (Acts 2:4) is made known to me and I just love it – to be honest Im havin’ a blast!!

    Back to the etymology of Sheol and Hades: Marina, where did they originate, how do we after so many centuries still believe there’s an underworld or hell of some sort, and how do you say and spell them?

    -Shawn M. Norris

    P.S. – micheldiego, I very much care about the philology and etymology of these words, because they (the words) are very vital and crucial in Bibliology and Theology (the study of the Bible and the study of God). I would like to know who or actually if someone came up with these words in the first place. Marina, you’re doing a great job of bearing with me and listening because I know you’re an extremely busy lady. – thank you!!! One more thing: INVESTIGATE!!!! :!: :smile:

    Yes I agree, but the “l’oeuf” version is not very convincing: shape of a zero??? Probably the reason is somewhere else.

    Hey Shawn Norris… chill. If someone disagrees with you, don’t take it personaly or get your back up or even try to change anybodys mind. Be yourself repond respectfully if at all. Be a good witness or saint & let your life speak for itself. I’m a Christian but I’m not going to go to great lengths to explain that.

    One more thing and this is the last thing I’ll say for the night: let’s get together, you bring an actual Japanese person that knows how to speak the language, and I’ll prove that the Holy Spirit is real – by the translation of the tongue that I’m speaking (not interpretation, that’s part’s up to God). I lie not before our Father. I myself don’t fully know how to speak the language, but the Holy Spirit does and He could prove it to you by the tongue that I’m speaking – Japanese. Also God’s name is pronounced Ye-kho-vaw’ (notice the stress mark on the last syllable).

    Hey Marina? micheldiego and I would like to know the origin of the words: Sheol (Hebrew) and Hades (Greek), we would like to know the etymology on it. We do know that it’s a place you can go after you die, but, according to the Bible you don’t have to go there if you’re what’s called “saved by grace” (God’s grace), although I didn’t quite know what Micheldiego meant by “incompatible with knowledge” – beyond knowledge or incomparable with knowledge – I don’t know what you meant and no I am not being ignorant I just don’t listen to man’s doctrine that much, just God’s and His Son Jesus Christ’s (which actually is the Father’s doctrine – John 7:16).

    I agree that speaking of religion, or politics is “dangerous” nevertheless

    1) better doing it here than letting the teacher doing some religious or political conneted word on line. If Shawn want to know the origin of the word “god” perhaps better answering here in the comments than asking Marina to do the job.
    2) it’s dificult to get hurt online. I know that some may say that words are more dangerous than weapons, but it should be dificult on HFW
    3) The philological part in itself of Shawn request is interesting because it is linked to two of the most amazing quests, the seach of the name of god and the search of a mytological inicial unique language. Kind of graal of etymology :wink:

    About the name(s) of god do you know Arthur C. Clarke short story? As I don’t want to bother anybody I think its all that I will post on this matter for now.

    @ Mich, Yes your right. The subject of Politics and Religion are very touchy subjects that are best left to blogs that are supporting that.
    I think Shawn’s goal was not to learn the origin of the word ‘god’. From reading his comments I think he well aware of the origin.
    I didn’t mean that someone could get physical hurt online. Thats impossible. To clarifiy what I meant is someone could be offended by others comments about discussions of religious beliefs.

  • micheldiego

    Warren the way I see it, is that inside Linguistics there is an area called philology, and inside philology is an area called etymology.
    So etymology is the study of words and language evolution in time and space. By looking to phonetics semantics and cultural relations between ages and coutries it shows the history of a word or expression. Philology is wider because it also study the use in the literature, so it can eventually try to compare the translations of the bible or translate the rosetta stone. Then linguistics includes not only philology but all studies related to language including good and bad grammar. Maybe somebody can confirm or not this understanding. If it is true, it means that Marina is doing here a work of etymology, but if she starts explaining how Shakespeare uses in what work one of the word she teaches then it becomes more than etymology.

  • Warren

    micheldiego,
    Thank you. I think I get it now.
    It’s not interchangeable but more like a breaking down into finer points.
    Linguistics is broad, while philology studies how a language is used, then etymology breaks down individual words.

    Hi dude, I did not ask these words, I know their etymology, and it is not particularly interesting. Aquarium is much more interesting, particularly in french and spanish if considered together with swimming-pool “piscine” or “piscina”.

    Regarding religion, maybe you can post your e-mail, I don’t mind in having a conversation with you but better not here.

  • mistress9nine

    I think you dont quite understand the point of this website. We ask Marina to do eymologies, and suggest some words which could be interesting material for her videos. Also if you’d have actually read my post under this one you’d see that I’m Hungarian and thus possibly know the origin. If I wanted some random guy telling me etymologies I’d google it. Start your own website or something…

    Hi Warren,

    Sorry I’m so slow to respond. Life intercedes. Obviously, our buddy micheldiego has answered this one already, and his assessment is a good one. But I appreciate your asking and I’m honored that you chose to ask me in particular. Thanks for your trust, I’ll try not to let you down.

    Anthropology has 4 main branches. They are: physical (the evolution of the human animal), cultural, linguistic, and of course, archaeology (analysis of habitation evidence).

    A little bit of each of them are required for the degree, although each branch has many specialties under it. Once the requirements are accounted for, one can choose what direction to focus on depending on what they take a special interest in. I like ‘em all, but have a special passion for combining elements of other scientific disciplines like physical geography, geology, hydrology (river and stream dynamics) paleoclimatology, natural history and archaeology to get a “read” of what an area’s overall historical development over time was like. I hope that was understandable; I barely can fit it all into my brain as it is, let alone put it into words. Sometimes words are just so inadequate and cumbersome.

    btw, I just found out I made the Dean’s list this past semester, and have completed the requirements for my major. Now I can kick back and take some non-anthropology electives (also required) like astronomy or music appreciation. I have only one semester left to go to graduate. Woo-hoo! Wish me luck…

  • Qermaq

    You know, I was thinking the point of this site was for people who love words (as Marina does) to meet and talk. I didn’t see it as merely an “ask marina” column. Frankly, I find your tone a little disconcerting, as I meant no harm and thought that information would be interesting to others.

    Suggesting words for videos is of course part of it, but is it all of it? Personally, I’d like to see Marina do words I cannot easily find about myself, words that truly show off her research skills and her unique sense of presentation and entertainment. Isn’t it appropriate to share our knowledge, argue about etymologies, have fun with it? Or is marina the only one allowed to reply to people here?

    Maybe i don’t understand the point of this forum, but I certainly was trying to be friendly and helpful, and it makes me a little sad that you found it to be intrusive of your good time. Sorry for the offense.

  • melikadothechacha

    I must have missed something here, but I’m glad you feel better.
    Umm… perhaps a good way to look at this is to look at this as a growth experience, uncomfortable – but, not painful.
    Sometimes the banter in here touches off nerves, chemical changes follow and sensibilities diminish. Hang out at an ER on a Friday night and you will be able to observe this (with more serious connotations).
    This is mostly a forum for words and stuff but issues are open for discussion, too. I’m here because I have a really weak spot in my head for sassy blonde women!! :???:

    Quite normal and healthy as long as you do the analysis.

    “A man is not where he lives, but where he loves”.
    Latin Proverb
    “Whatever man loves, that is his God. For he carries it in his heart; he goes about with it night and day; he sleeps and wakes with it, be it what it may-wealth or self, pleasure or renown”.
    Martin Luther
    “We are shaped and fashioned by what we love”.

    Hi xujof,

    Under the gun= under pressure, stressed by a looming deadline, or somehow threatened.

    Jump the gun= to start (a race, for example) before the starting signal has sounded.

    Behind the 8-ball= derived from billiards game of “eight-ball,” where the 8-ball is supposed to be played only AFTER all the balls for the side have been sunk (1 thru 7, or 9 thru 15). Sinking the 8-ball before the balls are all in on either side results in a loss of the game by forfeit. Therefore, leaving the cueball “behind the 8-ball” at the end of one’s turn makes it very difficult for the opposing side to make a good shot because of the risk of prematurely sinking the 8-ball. It’s another way of saying “under pressure” similar to “under the gun.”

    I hope this helps.

    Love is when mummy sees daddy smelly & sweaty & still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford. Chris – age 7

    When my Grandma got arthritis, she couldn’t bend over and paint her toe nails anymore. So my Grandpa does it for her all the time, even when his hands get arthritis too, that’s love. Rebecca – age 8

    Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving colonge & they go out & smell each other. Karl – age 5

    HotForWords tells us how universal “love” is as a word. “Love” is part of many phrases also. A word’s use in phrases can raise linguistic questions. Do the connotations of the words in the phrase apply to the phrase also? When words have multiple meanings, which meaning does the phrase depend upon?  

    “Words make love with one another.” (Andre Breton 1896-1966)

    As HotForWords has instructed us, words can change meanings. “Make Love” is a phrase that gained a meaning and may have retained it’s original, at least in connotation. So this comment is a Word Request for “make love” and will get the investigation started with the thinnest of resources, i.e. PC and Internet with no special subscriptions or any other references. Referring to the Online Etymology Dictionary provides a start about this but doesn’t explain how or why it happened or precisely when it was gained and what was lost over the centuries.  The phrase “Make Love” is attested from 1580 in the sense “pay amorous attention to”. Presumably the act of paying attention could explain the “make” in “make love”, “make love to” or “make love with”.    Earlier uses of “love” in compound words include love-letter attested from about 1240 and love-song from about 1310. To fall in love is attested from 1423. All these are say “amorous” but by “paying attention” in words, music or emotion – no sex “action” yet.
    The phrase “Make Love” as a euphemism for “have sex,” it is attested from about 1950. So about 1580 “make love” doesn’t mean “have sex”, yet. By 1950, it does.    
    After 1580 “love child”, a child born out of wedlock, was attested from 1805 which was from earlier “love brat”, attested in the 17th century. Clearly love meant sex with these, whatever word they were using for “sex” then and before. So not long after 1580, it appears that “love” was being used as an euphemism for “sex”.
    “Words make love with one another.”

    Regarding whatever word common English speakers were commonly using for sex then, before and after, if you wish refer to the Word History block and the Online Etymology Dictionary block in this link (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/fuck) for some history about the infamous F Word.

    For 2 centuries or so sometime after 1580 “make love” appears to be used also as “flirt” can be used today, as “play at courtship” ( from the 18th century). Flirt originally had a quite different meaning, but that could be another word lesson. Consider these “make love” literary quotes.

    “Astrologers say, This is a good Day, To make Love in May.” Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)   
    “It is true from early habit, one must make love mechanically as one swims; I was once very fond of both, but now as I never swim unless I tumble into the water, I don’t make love till almost obliged.” Lord Byron
    (1788-1824)
    “The only way to behave to a woman is to make love to her, if she is pretty, and to someone else, if she is plain.” Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)  

    Meanwhile in literature for English speakers; no particular word or phrase, acceptable or otherwise, seems predominantly used for sexual intercourse and censorship applied to an incredible degree peaking in the Victorian Era.  

    In 1745 Benjamin Franklin wrote his Letter to Young Men on the Proper Choosing of a Mistress which includes the word and phrases: “Affair”, “Pleasure of corporal Enjoyment”, and “debauching a Virgin”.
    In 1750 Fanny Hill, the famous pornographic novel, was published with it’s graphic descriptions.  Presumably looking at this novel with enough diligence (for this thin) etymological research, actual sexual intercourse is found stated as “engagements with men”, “the action”, “the transaction between this happy pair”, “the main attack”, “admittance”, “penetration”, “known any man”, “cheated the church of a ceremony” and “drove the nail up to the head”.
    In 1826 a pope referred to “the arrangement of providence"
    In 1880 Lady Jane Ellenborough, one of the most glamorous nymphomaniacs in history, is quoted "… slept with me …” 
    In 1900 “An American gynecologist said to a group of doctors … the sexual act …”.

    While “Affair”, “liaison” and “sleep with” have continued to be used in the 20th century, English speakers began to rally around the long acceptable “make love” phrase with its new meaning. After 1950, or whenever, did “make love” lose it’s original meaning? Apparently largely so.  Try to find quotes from the movies in the last 20 years where “make love” doesn’t refer to copulation. OK, maybe that’s just Hollywood. Search the newspaper web sites and search the Internet literary quotes. Good luck. 
    Perhaps a better question would be has “make love” retained a connotation of enamor or being in love to any significant degree?  Some seem to have a broader view of “making love” than others.

    “I think I mentioned … I could make love for eight hours. What I didn’t say was that this included four hours of begging and then dinner and a
    movie.” Sting

    Love is….

    She’s got a smile that it seems to me
    Reminds me of childhood memories
    Where everything
    Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
    Now and then when I see her face
    She takes me away to that special place
    And if I’d stare too long
    I’d probably break down and cry

    Sweet child o’ mine
    Sweet love of mine

    She’s got eyes of the bluest skies
    As if they thought of rain
    I hate to look into those eyes
    And see an ounce of pain
    Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
    Where as a child I’d hide
    And pray for the thunder
    And the rain
    To quietly pass me by

    Sweet child o’ mine
    Sweet love of mine

    Where do we go
    Where do we go now
    Where do we go
    Sweet child o’ mine

    Love is… love at first sight with a feeling that always grows every day. Gets bigger, sweeter, brighter, happiest time ever, can make you feel like a sweep stake winner. Feels as if you are walking on air, able to do most anything with out a care. The feeling is truly amazing, dazzling. Is an energy in side, pounding away unlike any other. It is honest, pure, makes you feel so much more than you once were. You awake everyday with the most beautiful of feelings; it makes you feel safe, protected and warm so happy. So powerful you think of that special some one who makes love happen for you, all the time, to distraction. From the moment you awake to when you fall asleep, she is there even in your dreams. During the day you catch yourself smiling with a radiant look on your face, your eyes smile too, massive breaths dispensed with a mellow sounding sigh. Gets you go dizzy too as you notice life in a brand new light. Physical sensations happen; causes nervousness, tingling all over, mouth gets dry, words fall out tongue tide, can turn your tummy in to jellied pulp. Nothing can make you feel as high as love can, nothing else comes close. It is the best thing in the world, ever. Completely happy. Complete.

    However, love can make people do some silly things at times. It can distort perceptions, cloud judgment, especially when it’s your first real dance but even more especially when you are dancing with the hottest, kindest, sweetest, brightest, loveliest, warmest, most beautiful funniest girl in the world that has or will be ever known to mankind. When she is the only one who hits you on all levels for the first time in your life, it can be a real shock to the system. One must learn to control some new strange feelings that love can bring, or be able to understand them so as not to cause any hurt. Reactions or snappy misjudged thoughts if a little jealous, must be silenced in an instant. Misunderstandings’ can occur; regretful words said to each other, you can only wish them undone. If this happens and you know you have hurt the one you love, the feeling is opposite to the elation once felt. You just want to die. Yet you would still die for her regardless as she is priceless to not just you, but the world all over. The worst thing that can happen is the cause for inaction, silence just nothing. As the pain eats away more and more at you, time goes by so slowly. Eating humble pie, not sleeping, unable to think clearly, endless unfinished poems, words fail you. It is most unfair not to communicate but in those moments, it can render you speechless. You feel the love still burning inside; just wanting to explain or to apologise. Sorry just isn’t enough. It is a dark, cold lonely place knowing you have hurt her, you become frozen in disbelief. Not good at all. Really, really bad in fact, just the worst feeling ever. It feels as if the worlds press is watching you, they can gather like Parana’s who feast only on the young, old or weak. They will attack you time and time again. This is only natural as they too are only human. It is very easy to kick a man while he is down especially when in numbers (Cowards!)

    With out her love, life has no meaning. With her love all is well as life takes on a whole new meaning. You wish and long for her back. Until and if at all you are very lucky that she does smile for you again, you will notice how sad the feelings are as you know she was the one. For her to say good bye after hurt is understandable, but live in hope because if she feels and knows what is true, you both may smile again together forever and ever. You would have to have said or done something really, really, really bad, for her love to stop, for her to hate you so. After a stupid misunderstanding, one can only hope she also sees it that way. Respect her decision either way; if bad news then I guess, well I don’t know to be honest, maybe be kind to your self. Accept a life sentence of absolute pain and regret, if you can handle that with out turning to toxins with mad public outbursts to try and escape, you are not human! Love can kill, thrill and spill. Only two connected souls in sweet harmony can save true love, only they can make it happen for each other. Only she can save you. To see her eyes once again will be the best ever thing to happen since you first found her. If that happens, you may be speechless again but not for too long!
    Peace

    Spanish, portuguese and italian share the same root for “love”: Amor (spanish and portuguese) and Amore (italian)… very different from the ones mentioned in our lesson ;-)

    Catalan (the language from the north-west region of Spain called Catalonia), also has “amor” BUT, the don’t use it… instead, for “I Love you”, they say “T’estimo” which indicates that they have love in a high esteem :mrgreen:

    A song I think you would love is, precisely, the song “Amor” from the venezuelan band Los Amigos Invisibles… don’t worry, lyrics are in english… :cool:

    In Tagalog:

    noun form = pag-ibig
    verb form = mahal (I love you => Mahal kita)

    going through all the past lessons is kinda fun. I’ve got a lot of catching up to do :D

    Magandang gabi, Micah :smile:
    I’ve been to the Philippines many times and loved it there. My neighbor and good friends is from the Philippines.

    Welcome to the HotForWords site and I see that you are already catching up on all of the old lessons. I’ve watched everyone of the 571 video lessons at least ten times. I love watching the classical Marina lessons as it brings back some great memories of the discussions we’ve had on this site and the people that I have met. If you have any questions about the videos, let me know. I’ve been following Marina’s work since she started the lessons back in March 2007.

    I just want to ask you a question from this video : do YOU think, that, people (it’s really “hors sujet” im sorry) ddo you think that people can stay on their image all their life?? ->that’s the question i was asking myself while watching this one. And you don’t HAVE TO answer but, im still asking the question! :smile: bye!

    Love in tennis and love the feeling or emotion are two different words with the same spelling and pronunciation but different meanings. They’re homonyms. And according to the book “The Guinness Book of Tennis Facts,” Love is derived from the French “l”oeuf”, the egg, symbolising nothing.

    I really like the fresh perpective you did on the issue. Really was not expecting that when I started off studying. Your concepts were easy to understand that I wondered why I never looked at it before. Glad to know that there’s an individual out there that definitely understands what he’s discussing. Great job
