It seems that wiki-pedia gave related answers of both being colloqial
terms for umbrella.
Although, GAMP had some acronims equalling Girard Academic Music Program and Good Automated Manufacturing Practice (for
the pharmaceutical industry.

Both gamp and brolly are umbrellas,
let’s play theumbrella game:
hft = umbrella
hft = brolly
hft = gamp
micheldiego = canopy

Gamp is a “Great Audio & Movie Player”.

Brolly is a Dragon Ball Z character.

I would like to request a word!

can you define ” ice cream ”

Thank you!

I guess I am 6th

Come on teach,
No one thought to use an Umbrella till when?
To stop the rain. ?

I think the server should be better now.. they fixed something :mrgreen:

Sorry Hon still a little choppy

Talk to ChaCha he is a GEEK
and will HELP if he can.

Ohh

You were very cute at Lisa’s party and Your little dog too.

Gamp=Good Automated Manufacturing Practice
Brolly =Umbrella girl, The girls the hold umbrellas at motorcycle races
or a large unbrella.

Since you did the word Umbrella how about the word Parasol?

Marina it doesn’t take anytime at all for you’r new videos to post in my e-mail :cool:

Or according to MSN Live Dictionary they both mean a large unbrella. But there are several other meanings as well like the other ones I posted. :???:

Two days in a row. You lucky ______panda :lol: :lol:

Both are terms used by the British for umbrellas. A gamp is a large baggy umbrella. A brolly is an umbrella.

17th dang one phone call messed me up for first.

Hi. I have a very scandalous word request for you. Can you please find the root of the word cock, and how does it relate to a penis and rooster?

And while we are at it can you find the roots of the word scandalous?

And just one more…. word….. where did we get that one from?

bumbershoot

Like the “Parasol”, Spanish for shade from the sun “Para” = “for” and “sol” =”sun”. Now how did they get “bumbershoot” for umbrella?

Well….it’s cream that that is frozen, like, lets see like, oh, I know, Ice.

well, i know that a brolly is a British term for umbrella…but i don’t know where gamp comes in…although i’d guess it’s another (or annudder :grin: ) name for an umbrella elsewhere…

but what is an umbrella in Conversational Russian?… :mrgreen:

btw, i was especially intrigued by this lesson, as i think that the floral inflorescence type known as an umbel (see the noxious weed Queen Anne’s Lace
) comes from the same root… :cool:

G.A.M.P. – Girls And Marina = Pulchritudinous!

Wow two in a row! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :razz: :razz: :razz:

A brolly is a Brit’s name for an umbrella. God knows who calls it a gamp.
What is a bumpershoot eh?

Much better than Rihana’s – “Umbrella” or should I say Rihana’s “Umberella”, “berella”, “berella”…. :wink:

let’s play the umbrella game:
hft = umbrella
hft = brolly
hft = gamp
micheldiego = canopy
geronimo = bumbershoot
inspectorjury = parasol
micheldiego = sunshade

I concur with Mike. Same thing here. Much better than the 6 hours it used to take. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

We all know what they are, but how did anybody come up with and how does this even make sense, that the word kiwi also means any of several flightless, ratite birds of the genus Apteryx, of New Zealand, allied to the extinct moas. I mean I just looked it up and it’s also called a chinese gooseberry, but how do the two (chinese gooseberry and kiwi that is) make up the word and meaning of the word kiwi – anybody wanna go with me on this, like who made it up and when was the word kiwi formed? It’s also slang for a member of an air service, as in World War I, who is confined to ground duty and for a former pilot or member of a flight crew. I would like to know who would have the mental capacity to come up with such a name, so, Marina, would you please investigate?

Or it could have been my eyes playing tricks on me. I have been at this computer all day. Looks can be deceiving :???:

I would very much like to know, would you be so kind as to dig for the answer?

G’day mates!

When I was in Oz (Australia) I heard the term brolly used in reference to an umbrella. “ohey mate, check out em birds under the brolly!” Birds=chicks=girls.

That was an easy five stars,,,!

I had the same art glass candle
I used three pennies under it to
provide enough of an air gap
to convect when the candle
is lit. Otherwise, it smokes up
the glass – pain to clean.

My Canadian friends tell me
a brolley is an umbrella-ella-ella

dig those crazy froot loops :mrgreen:

Lost in translation, perhaps? :mrgreen:

I am like you, I had to go back to my bike. I couldn’t get accustomed to the little brown dog. I can recognize the bike easier. :wink:

http://www.zesprikiwi.com/kiwi_name.htm
The most notable thing about kiwis is the size of the egg. It is the bigest egg compared to the female body volume. Seems to be for the same reason kiwi does not fly and can put gigantic eggs: kiwi has no predator. Another evolution mistery solved.

Where were you ?

I am being told I am leaving out something??

It like a circle joke; Who’s on second?

Love what you are doing here. I’m a programmer and use a phrase that I was curious of its origin. I see programmers and other professions use the phrase “Work in progress” but programmers say “I’ve got a wip I need to finish.” or “This is a pic of FEAR wip.”
Curious where the phrase and wip got its origins heh.

What about this version

Let’s hope they really REALLY fixed it! LOL :mrgreen:
comments are working again and the email
notification posted pretty quick. I notice that
I have to rate your video or it recycles if I go
to make a comment, first. hmmmm… :mrgreen:

I missed it – schedule conflict.

parasol

Who came up with the word buxom and why is it usually referring to a woman that is plump, yet full-bosomed?

Awe yes! Your evil twin sister is back! What a babe! She has great pizzazz. I would like to meet her someday and go out to a exciting party or just do something crazy and loving life. :mrgreen:

What the heck was Kobe talking about? She was barking at something? Oh she wanted to be on the video. Well she had her chance many times and didn’t want to be in the vid. Typical female that can’t make up her mind. :wink:

“para” means “against” or “opposing”…and “sol” is ‘course, the sun…

and so, “opposing sun” = parasol…

now explain parallax… :cool:

I don’t know, third base?
I got drawn into a multitask.
I’ll go check it out and see
what’s up. Umm.. hara kiri, right?

hi marina. i’m going to request a word that i believe you’ll have a very very difficult time trying to locate its meaning and its usage. my intentions are only to challenge you positively. i am not challenging you in hopes of failure – i believe you’ll find the meaning. it is “philister”. thank you. g’day.

- kiwi is a native bird of New Zealand.
- a kiwi, is also slang for a person who comes from New Zealand.
- a chinese gooseberry is a fruit which is marketed as kiwifruit

Not sure about the WW I pilot association to Kiwi

Well it does have “umber” in it and the brits love to rhyme things. That’s how they came up with Bill for William and Bob for Robert etc.

i would like to know the meaning of the word, “lesson” plz teach me! ur da 1 teacher i actually pay attention too :wink:

Found it – left you a reply
Hey! How tall do you think
the bottle in the picture of
Marina is? (I’m trying to see
how tall she is) I’m 6’4″ so
she looks petite to me! :mrgreen:
Umm… a guess … 5’3″, 100 lbs, maybe
(plus or minus 3 lbs) dry weight :mrgreen:

That’s really funny micheldiego !! Combines two of my lessons!

** I have a word request.** I mention about your website to a karate instructor near where I live that you where a Philologist. I talked about your past lesson ‘Kara-Kiri’ and what his views where. You where spot on from what he knows of the term. We did have some interesting discussion about the ritual.

Later on he said he knew the origin of thumbs up and thumbs down gesture. He stated that we understand the gesture to be backwards than what it was original used at Roman amphitheaters. The defeated gladiator would have hoped NOT to see any thumbs up which surely meant his death.

I heard of the same origin when I was on a tour at the Roman Colosseum. In later years I heard this is not entirely the case. Marina in your great wisdom do you know the correct origin of the ‘Thumbs up or down gesture? :smile:

Your humble student.

Postscript: By the way loved learning about the word Umbrella. I would have never known there was so much to learn about my golf umbrella. I don’t play golf but I like large umbrellas in a PNW storm.

__/)__

Mistress HFW,
If diction is how you speak, intonation, inflection etc. Why does a dictionary tell you what words mean? Were dictionaries orginally just to tell you how to pronounce the words?

I always hated that stupid umbrella song…………but now it’s not so bad because I will think of you!!!!!

tht umbrella song is “FANTASTIC” you need to learn to feel tha music not only listen to music

NIce teachers pet fake out!! Here I am on the edge of my seat, and what happens?– na- nu-na-nu-naa-nu! Ya got me! :smile:

That looked like a really nice beach. :wink:

that’s good I used the door and the cabinets to judge.
no dought she is a 0 or 00 pants

spanish;
para is: for
sol is : sun para lo sol = for the sun

brolly is slang for umbrella….its an umbrella…the gamp i thought was used to cover cars or something big….my uncle in africa uses the word gamp when describing how he is tring to protect large equimpent or flowergardens or something to that nature…so im gonna say a tarp….or canvas…

THIS is what song I think of when I think of Teacher. :grin:

why is a sucker refered to as a lolly-pop or visas verses

RRR=paraguas

The movie is timeless

Dear HotForWords,

What is the origin of the word cockchafer?
How about the word insect?

“The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.” – General George Patton 1885-1945

…”We need more Patton and less patent leather…One dirty bomb can ruin your whole day” – Michael Savage :wink:

This is great! Now I can think of you when that song plays :smile: !
Also what is the origin of the word бороться ? :grin:

What is the origin of the word drizzle?
Please Marina!

Love that yellow dress Marina!

no no I give up

can you do the origin : hot water :grin: :grin:

staker bear :shock:

COULD YOU TELL US THE ORGIN OF THE WORD WAR :roll:

mmmmMMMMMWAH! to YOU TOO! You know… in light of the recent passing of our beloved comedian, George Carlin, I think it would be appropriate to request the origin of the phrase, “kick the bucket” :?: . He was a great comedian, and we’re all sad that he has “kicked the bucket” :cry: !

Where did your twin hide?

Oh I feel the same way. I sometimes just break out into song and everyone around me sings with me in perfect tune. Oh wait,… I must be day dreaming again. :shock:

I like this version better. I feel so pretty, so very pretty!

I could not tell if that was really her in the vid. I think it was her sister.

==> melancholy <==

Im guessing she is 5’6″ and 115. I’ll know more when I get a date with her evil twin sister.

Great movie Jack. You guys are Freaks

Thats was an awesome find there Mich. Very funny! Better than the original!

RR , whats your Gravitar photo of? Looks like batman with some chick. Too small to see clearly.

Parapluie is how umbrella translates en Francais.

This kid does the best version of Umbrella . I love youtube for being able to find raw talent, the kid performs, records & writes & now sells his work & it is good stuff

Very Funny, Marina. I didn’t know that was your video that was saying “ella ella ella” I was looking on iTunes, youtube, and quicktime player to figure out what was doing that haha.

I think Kobey was trying to tell us to subscribe to HFW. If you have not subscribed then you better, before Kobey comes over to your yard and does her business on it. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Hey Labbatt78, our boy Ryan Dempster iis doing OK out there. We grow them strong out here in our province.
D’ya think Marina might be hiding & sis running the show now???

Debbie Reynolds says hello. She may have been “Singin’ in the Rain” back in the ’50s, but she lives in Las Vegas now. So I guess she’s using her umbrella for the sun…

You know, George Carlin was performing, or was billed to perfom, at The Orleans just a couple of blocks from where I live in Las Vegas. One day his name was on the marquee, the next day I heard the tragic news.

Didn’t Patton die in a jeep accident? I believe jeep rollovers were responsible for a high number of military casualties in the second world war. Correct me if I’m wrong.

I think “word war” is commonly called an argument, dispute, or debate.

Loved the movie, and listen to the Savage Nation. Good stuff, pagedoll.

Or maybe a hybrid word: cockroach.

Thanks for the news links the other day Jack. Shades of another recent incident in our waters. Robertson II last year.

My visas don’t have verses. I writer serious prose in there for the customs officers to read.

Golf umbrellas come in especially handy when hailstones are the size of . . . golf balls.

She ain’t a gonna answer less’n you spell better, y’hear? :roll:

Phil had bad breath. I suggested: “Phil? Listerine!”

In “The Big Country,” Gregory Peck gets on a wild horse. The horse buxom off real quick.

I left my umbrella in Cherbourg…

Old, New, Sids by Side. Great stuff …unless you’re living in Iowa.

You’re better looking than Ella Fitzgerald…

(She was as big as an ella-phant.)

Speech

I always thought elephants Gerald was one of Hannibal’s barbecue recipes.

Where they able to salvage the Robertson II?

I received many messages about my thought on the grounding of 133 foot Adventuress. Non of them where for a TV interview.

My thoughts are just like from my friend Tim Flanagan at Navagear.com. He did get a telephone interview.

BTW the videos you watch did you see the little bright red tugboat pulling on the ship? Thats my good friend Richard. The photos that King 5 TV showed was from his blackberry phone. He take photos of every tow he does and posts it on his website. Usually a comment of why the person is getting towed. Most of the tows are from stupid people thinking if they can manage a car they can manage a boat. You don’t see people renting an airplane in the spur of the moment and saying “Hey I can fly! How hard can it be?”

I was very happy that boat came out undamaged. They are very lucky. As you showed me things can get much worse. Heck even the dock can put a 8 foot by 3 inch gash in a boat. I have to get it repaired before it rains.

Here is a link for the King 5 news report of my friend Richard’s tugboat and his photos. Also the phone interview with Tim. You might have already seen this but here it is again in case you missed it.

Adventuress runs aground – King 5 coverage

No sweeter voice. Ella , Bewitched, Bothered & Bewildered… sound familiar.

Hey Bill, Are you able to get the co-comments to work. Sometime is shows Marina’s comment but most of the time it doesn’t. I even tried to fine your comments with it here on HFW and no luck. :sad:

i know, he don’t lose at home. It was awesome sweeping the south siders. Oh that, I don’t know. I don’t think anybody knows where sis went.

Wow I bet you where shocked! :shock: Kind of hits home hu?

Wow thats an old phrase my grandpa used to say many times. Well until he kicked the bucket.

Is that when you get when you breed a chicken with a roach? :twisted:

My little girl and me, She is holding a 12ga sawed off pump. No varmints on my place. Taught her to take care of her self.

They tried to save her quite a few times, but weather beat her up to bad. Salvage took for scrap :cry: for robbyII
I don’t get a lot of TV news, don’t watch it much & then only if it’s interesting. “Flight 182″ the other night was very good. Doc. on the investigation & bungling of the investigation…very honest…refreshing. Canadians seem to look at themselves & say WTF I screwed up bad. sometimes…
Are you going to be able to keep your boat? its ok?

stalker

:roll:

Oh Woody Harrelson never looked so sexy! ahhahahah. I should give Woody a call and see if he wants to get freaky tonight! hehehe
I think he’ll do a good job as playing Captain ‘Howling Mad’ Murdock on the new A-Team movie soon to be filmed. :mrgreen:

I watched the videos. Of course, I have the movie. In the beginning, Debbie Reynolds sings the title song with Donald O’Connor and Gene Kelly. And they have at least one yellow umbrella. Usher is good, but I have to say that Kelly still has more grace.

Hi prezleefun,
Although what you are asking for hasn’t been done, but, some related words that you are asking for were touched upon in the video Marina did called, “Cockpit”.
It’s a “must see” video. Make sure you watch the ending very carefully.
May need to use the pause to read everything. I laughed my head off for a week. Marina is way toooo funny. :lol: :lol: :lol:
http://www.hotforwords.com/2008/03/12/cockpit/

think he died in a head on in his car . accident but some say he was killed.

I forget, hehe, what my name is at cocomment, it’s either sosaut or BillyB, I don’t use it that often although I did check it out recently & it was slow. but thats probably my molasis fast computer.
I feel creepy following Marina around too much, so I just check on the right & if it interests me I try it.
Different types of sites… & i signed up… actually found out I was signed up as a google blogger or something, thanks to cptn jack.

“Mi sono innamorato di Marina, una ragazza mora assai carina,
ma lei non vuol saperne del mio amore,
cosa faro’ per conquistarle il cuor

Marina, Marina, Marina, ti voglio al piu’ presto sposar
O mia bella mora, no non mi lasciare
non mi devi rovinare, oh no, no, no, no, no!”

“I fell in love with Marina, a dark-haired (should rather say: blond-haired), amazingly beautiful girl,
but she does not want to know anything about my love,
what shall I do to conquer her heart?

Marina, Marina, Marina, I want to marry you as soon as possible
Oh my beautiful dark-haired girl, do not leave me,
please do not ruin me, oh no, no, no, no, no!”

Hello Marina,

I was wondering if you could explain the origin of two things (they’re similar):
Where do we get the sayings “penny for your thought,” and “two cents”? Surely, someone’s opinion is worth more than that!
Sincerly, Bones

A little hint… The Russians are far advanced in the art of cloning & they are waiting for the american divorce rate to soar to 75%, then unleash an army of Marinas’ sisters on the nation… oh maybe gave away the plot for the next Fillini Film. oops

Amazing how many different versions evolve after the fact. When I was told the jeep thing I had trouble looking it up, but officially he died from complications due to severe neck injury, Ironicaly the accident happened the day before he was to return to the States.

Word War

Yes I agree Billy. He has a great voice. He needs to get connected to a good band. This kid is freaking awesome. Loved the internet song! It even made a small tear in my eye. Amazing lyrics I never seen used before. I even subscribed to his channel. Who knows, maybe someday he will be a popular singer. Thanks for the tip Bill.

Yes excellent suggestion, how about cockroach?

And how about mosquito? :shock:

Oh that sounds painful! Yea I see why you would want a good Golf umbrella there. Large coverage area and flexible ribs to spring back in to shape.

Hookah!

Wow, that repeditive “ella” was REALLY annoying lol

MARINA! i would like you to investigate some internet slang words.
e.g. “Lol” “Rofl” “lmao” etc etc. They are some really commonly used ahh… abreviations/words these days and i would love to find out how they started… if its not too hard :-)

Marina, interestingly you didn’t mention the word bumbershoot. I don’t know if you are aware of this, but we have a festival every year called Bumbershoot. I guess its a good name for festival in a rainy city. Seattle has been putting on this festival for years. I remember going when I was little. Throughout the years, many artists such as B.B. King, The Ramones, Ray Charles, REM, Kanye West, De La Soul, Jerry Seinfeld, Chuck Palahniuk and many others have appeared. Its always a big thing on Labor Day which is 67 days away.

Which reminds me. You where in Seattle once. I seen one of your videos of you in the Pike place Market next to “The Bear” at the flying fish market stand. So what brought you to Seattle that day?

Im watching an old rerun of Fantasy Island on AOL site. I guess it works for me.

Its totaled. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: I have a guy that is going to patch it up but I might just have to sell it on ebay to see what I can get for her. I had planed to clean her up and sell her for a bit more or at least break even when I upgrade to something else. This old girl was way to small for my tastes any way. She was going to be home until I can find the ship that I want to live the rest of my life on. I plan to sail around th e world again. This time my way. I plan to blog the whole trip with HD quality videos. I’ve talked with some guys from National Geographic and the Water channel on what they need from me as for video footage. So you might see me on the water channel for sure. I want to teach people the life style of cruising on a sailboat, what it is really like. Also lots of training videos so other people can learn how to do this. The current video tapes are so very outdated. Yea they are now on DVD but its just a copy of the VHS tapes. My goal it to update those libraries to todays standards.
Im not going to do all this on my current boat.

Hello My Dear Teacher,
I was amused by musing over Marina being our favorite muse.
What is the origin of these words and how are they related?

And yes, you and your videos are very inspiring…. :cool:

Its BillyB.

Well Marina keeps telling us to follow her on coco. What other invitation do we need? Anyways it not like we are at her house. Its the internet. Boy I have to get you into Second Life. Then you will think website are child’s play. speaking of which I need to log on and say hi to all my SL friends. I have an Island to buy, a ship to get commissioned, and get some well you know.. hehehe :shock: :shock:

scat… :evil:

Marina, I loved the graphic visuals that went along with the word like umbra to enhance learning. Very nice!!!

I notice a change in personality. Im almost getting confused who is who. but I think I really like her twin sister the best. Yea she can be annoying sometime but she’s a bit cuter and has pazzazz.

I thought about cloning myself then watched the movie “The Island”
I hate when movie writer can’t come up with something original that they have to remake someone else work. For example, the island movie is the same as Logan’s Run. Same damn story line. I guess we are the copy and paste generation!

Indonesian/Malay=pajung
Thai=Rom
Arabic=el Shamsaya

How about … a portmanteau word with parachute, á la Mary Poppins.

Hello there.
I would like to request a word as well. Where does “nostalgia” come from. By the Way nice effects in the Umbrella video. I like the Hat. And the Ella sound was a little bit irritating.

Hi, I love your podcasts and update them often. I was wondering where the origin of the words ass and jackass came from. I know what they are and the difference between them but why are they called that and why we refer it to humans? Thanks and keep up the good work

Ella, Ella, Ella.

Gamps and brollies are umbrellas.

This doesn’t help with the word request but is Monty Python sketch

BIGIS DICUS

yeah, gamps and brollies are both british names for umbrellas. I think the main difference is that gamps are bigger and more baggy than the brolly.

I loved the Umbrella – ella -ella – eh eh eh :D nicely done MaRhianna :)

Since the topic of rain/umbrella had just been covered. I was wondering about the origin of the word ‘deluge’ meaning heavy downpour / a great flood.

Thanks to whoever, wishes to second this motion :mrgreen:

Marina can you do the word “Matrix” since It’s part of my youtube name and my show The Transformers Matrix. THANKS! I LOVE YOU!

http://www.thetransformersmatrix.com
http://www.youtube.com/Transformersmatrix

The picture looks like somewhere on Wailea. Oh, well, are you sitting under an umbrella or a parasol?

Hello. I was wondering if you could investigate the origin of the phrase “cup of joe” as it refers to coffee. There seem to be several competing theories floating around the net about this. Some friends and I were arguing about the origin. Maybe you can help us out? Thanks.

Is that two girls, one cup o’ Joe?

I would be extremely grateful if you could research the origin of the word “ideation” for me. I look forward to your response

Cup of Joe

you are soooo hot! :razz:

please do the word “thong”

pleeeeeeeeeze

Marina, I’d like to know the meaning and origin of the phrase “to have someone over a barrel.”

Hello Marina. You really encourage me to study English because you are so hot. You are the cat’s meow more than the cat can say.

And now I have a question for you about English grammer. What’s the plural of ‘Spiderman’? Spidermen? or Spidermans? Which is better? Can you answer it?

A five star preformance

Hey M.
Where does <> and <> come from???

tayjim, I tried to fix your link, but wasn’t able to… what is the name of the video? I’ll see if I can find it that way.

Bus Stop by the Hollies

i remember that a gamp,chiefly in British slang is a large and baggy umbrella, this term is used humorously after Mrs Sarah GAMP, a nurse in CHARLES DICKENS’ Martin Chuzzlewitt 1844 or 1845( i don’t remember actually) who used such an umbrella! :arrow: BROLLY is another British informal word for umbrella,but i do not know the right etymology behind it….Marino4ka, i noticed that you particularly like Dickens’ literature..don’t you :?: ,it seems like you’re really an authority even in this field…

Hi, sounds like you need to buy a new sister. tee-hee. What is the word orgin of: BAREFEET I have look into this a little its different.
Thanks

This should be the one. One too many 8s above

Could you please tell me about the word ‘bouy’.

The things that float in the water that mark locations.

Thanks,

Tom

Marina could have fun with that, combining with the concept of buoyancy and with a “show and tell” feature of buoyancy aids. :grin:

I am too old to remember, but is it fakes that float or vise verse?

Umbrella=Young Love?

They didn’t offer that experiment in my physics class. :sad:

War;
Is in my opinion : The total and complete annihilation of the oppositions ability and well to oppose your rule of law. With no consent.

Such balls! Hope you send Marina
a royalty for that shameless plug! :mrgreen:

marina,what is the origin of cooties?

I’m wondering more about a phrase than just a word. Where did the phrase “Pushing the envelope” originate? And why?

ella ella

Gamp stands for “good automated mamufacturiing practices” and brolly is a colloquial term for umbrella

Today’s PC war;

Thank you!

What makes you all think she really has a twin sister other than she acts like she is talking to her sometimes. :?: .

That would be like shooting fish in a barrel, but it would be as fun as a barrel of monkeys. So, roll out the barrel and we’ll have a barrel of fun.

First of all i love your show.
And i would also very much like to know the origin of the phrase “It is raining cats and dogs”

/Me :shock:

Let’s be frank here 333blue_rose333, would you like me to do the word frankly?

Bowie? knife

Guys;
Has anyone noticed that when the Teacher leaves the room, we just go off on all sorts of topics? She pops in and leaves a video and gets the hell out of the way. We are just brats or what? Out of control.

:shock: until the next video.

this comes from the Urban Dic. GAMP; An acronym that stands for Gay Asian Midget Porn

tpcoz, Buoys came generally into use in European waters in the late 15th century. In Britain they were regulated under a charter given by Henry VIII to Trinity House in 1514. The word originally came from the Latin word ‘boia’, a halter (because the buoy is tethered), passing into English either through ‘boye’, which has become the modern French ‘bouee’, or Middle Dutch, in which ‘boeie’; meant both buoy and halter. Either derivation would explain both the apparently intrusive ‘u’ and the fact that some sticklers still pronounce the word to rhyme (more or less) with ‘hooey’. Although most speakers now make it a homophone of ‘boy’. The word buoy was first attested in 1466 in ‘Manners and Household Expenses’ 1841.

Today they serve for navigational purposes. They are to mark safe water or some other information for the mariner. Since we can not paint lines on the water we pretend they are like lines on the sides of the freeway. Simple hu?

Why? Do you think she has some? No wonder I haven’t asked her out yet. I don’t want to get any cooties. :shock: :shock: :shock:

Frankly I don’t she gives a damn.. Just kidding :grin: That would be an interesting word.

OMG thats funny. Singing “Roll out the barrel and we’ll have some fun!”

You nasty boy you!. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Oh I can see this joke is never going to end. LOL.

hehehehehe…. :lol: :lol:

yes please:)

And then “Forest GUMP” is an oxymoron since it is a Gay URBAN Midget Porn in the WOODS.

It just evolved from people not wanted to type the same phase over and over again. Back in the early days of chat rooms is where it got started.

Sounds like there might be some good stories behind those phrases.

that could make a person A sexual. welcome to reality

P.S. I loved the visual effects in your “umbrella” video. they were very interesting. it was a funny video as well. keep posting those excellent and imformative videos!

TEACHER,

Have you given thought to changing the link you give to Youtubers
to http://www.hotforwords.com/words/ .? It will land them on the list of all your work. This will help them to navigate the site too.
Maybe you could do a seminar on the difference of definition and origin.

There are few more missing also. :sad: I hope she has them backed up so we can get them on her hot videos when they come out. :cool:

I don’t think that was Joe in that cup. Maybe Joe’s go. :twisted:

Instead of Joe that was one sweet dish :cool:

Para (in this case, i suppose, “in favor of” or and Bellicose (“fighting” or “war”) und so “prepare for war”

Really? I didn’t know that, or is this just a clever ploy to steer me away? If it is, it’s a good one.

how do you see the newest one on you tube?

Go to this site and keep hitting refresh or F5 It’s Marin’s utube home site. When you see the video come up on utube then switch back to HFWs. What I do is keep both site open and rotate back and fourth between the two.

IF i can be earnest… damn.

I think that’s on the flipside of “The Pennsylvania Polka!”

You know the Rules of Order, kaibanator. First we have to have a quorum. Let’s see now: there’s you, me, capman911, tayljim, someuddermale, geronimo, and our lovely Marina presiding of course. Good enough then. I SECOND THE MOTION! Plus, I don’t have a ready answer for the possible origin of DELUGE (a worthy word indeed).

Hotforwords must investigate.

Apparently Patton led the last mounted charge of US cavalry. Wikipedia:
“In July 1932, Patton served under Army Chief of Staff General Douglas MacArthur, as a major leading 600 troops, including the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, in an action to disperse the protesting veterans known as the “Bonus Army” in Washington, D.C.. MacArthur ordered the troops to advance on the protesters with tear gas and bayonets. At one point, when the protesters resisted with bricks and curses, Patton led the last mounted charge of the U.S. Cavalry.[citation needed] One of the veterans rousted by the cavalry was Joe Angelo, who had received the Distinguished Service Cross in 1918 for saving Patton’s life.”
No movie on this episode yet, perhaps Holywood is not so “liberal”?

he said ” stern,” that means boat butt :???:

no-One likes the: aLl New….. DOCUMENTS of WAR……..?

Not one slam, or giggley ? Is this mike on \\\|||\\\Not one Bush bashing lefty pony tail wearing tree haggen anti War LIB at all? pt9? dgoy

” perhaps Holywood is not so “liberal”?
Perception, Hollywood is not liberal to Karl Marx. :lol:

Stalkers use coComments, :twisted:
they’re just harmless devotees
a little obsessive, maybe? :mrgreen:

Capman YOU’RE wao 2 :mrgreen:

First off Im missing a word. “think” should be inserted between Don’t and She.

@ RR, Oh that was spot on! hehehe Loved it. The guy even looked like me. Tnks :mrgreen:

@ Bob, Very funny. I had to look up King Canute. Interesting guy.

@ Gio, No I did not. You still have a link?

__/)__

Yes, that’s my point: everything is relative, even Patton’s heroism.
And by the way I did not knew that Karl Marx was “liberal”.

No chacha
Teach is trying to push that crap on the great unwashed.
We shouldn’t put it down in front of them.

Would being frank also be like being blunt or terse? :roll:
With such subtle shades of nuance, I’m not sure :mrgreen:

repeatedly – LOL :grin:

hehehe, I looked up buoy and didn’t see anything that Marina could use for a game in a video. So I thought I would just put it out there. I don’t think she have enough time to do every word in the OED and since I have a copy of ‘The Oxford Companion To Ships & Sea’ and a copy of ‘The Language of Sailing’ I could help out a tad bit. :wink:
I hope Marina didn’t mind and I hope it was not on her words to do list. :sad:

And yes I am hot for boats. I don’t know why to this day but I’m not looking back to living in a desert again. :mrgreen:

buoys and gulls, they just go together :mrgreen:

OH yea! Many stories like that. Some of them end up on Myth Busters!

If I was a stalker I would be standing outside her home. I’m just competitive.

Teach is trying to push what crap?

Hello!

I have a word request: “Joe Schmoe”. Probably someone just said it one day and and it stuck, but I’m curious when the term first became commonly used.

Pushing CoComment Gman

Hello Bob,
I see that you haven’t posted a comment to the new show. Busy?
Speaking of portmanteau words- how about portmanteau phrases?
Like: “word to the wise” and “the world is my oyster” = “the word is my oyster” :shock:

Ahoy captainjack!
(that’s a word to look up-”ahoy”)
I’ve heard this joke years ago so maybe you have too so stop me if you have.. :wink: .anyway I just recieved it from “Joke of the Day”-
A Pirates Life for Me…
Captainjack meets a pirate in a bar, and they take turns telling their adventures on the sea.
Captainjack notes that the pirate has a peg-leg, a hook, and an eye patch.
Captainjack asks, “So, how did you end up with the peg-leg?”
The pirate replies, “We were in a storm at sea, and I was swept overboard into a school of sharks. just as me men were pulling me out, a shark bit my leg off.”
“Wow!” said captainjack “What about your hook?”
“Well”, replied the pirate, we were boarding an enemy ship and were battling the other sailors with swords. One of them cut me hand off.”
“Incredible!” remarked captainjack. “How did you get the eye patch?”
“A seagull dropping fell into my eye”, replied the pirate.
“You lost you eye to a seagull dropping?” asked captainjack incredulously.
“Well”, said the pirate, “it was the first day with me hook.”

You can drop a doubloon/duckett in the hat.

Ahoy Warren!

A hail to attract attention, as in “ship ahoy!” Its a combination of the interjection ‘a’ with that the OED calls the ‘natural exclamation ‘hoy’. It was first attested as a complete expression in …… Im going to stop there.
Why? Well this is a good one for our teacher to investigate. I found some references to Alexander Graham Bell using “ahoy!” There is even references to Dutch, German, and French using the word. Some people think it dates back to an ancient Viking battle cry. So with that said I think this one should be left to Marina to investigate. I also think Marina can make a good game out of this word. So even though I think I can answer this one I rather leave it up to the expert! :wink:

What do you say Marina? Would you like to take this one on? :mrgreen:

Oh one more thing. I was a bit ancyouse to click on the submit button there. Anywho, Love the joke! Tnks. :grin: :grin:

What the heck is ‘ancyouse’? My gawd boy! Get a darn spell checker or something. Wait… you already have one. So you should used the darn thing once in a while! heheheh

It’s a very sad day when you rag on yourself about your screw ups…

:mrgreen:

Want to see something? Look at the link I posted to capman911-
up above this.

Hey captainjack,You know how one thing leads to another-right.
Well I was looking at some of the links that have been used here as a reference and I came across a site that had Marina’s show- “Hello”. So..she did it already. I think I need to make a list for my own reference. Maybe re-watch a few shows every once in awhile.

umbrella gamp and brolly has the same means.the chiniese is “伞”,but how to use them in the diffrence site?

I like your voice. Sometimes we hear things only pronounced from a regions slang. And that can lead to stereo-typing or something like that. More power to your speech. words words words hip and hop like, she has working hips – bones WORDS

:mrgreen: Nice lesson, to bad the Homework already got answered.

I finally solved the mystery! You are imitating Rihanna in this video!

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/gamp states gamp means umbrella ffter Sarah Gamp, a character who carried an umbrella in Charles Dicken’s Martin Chuzzlewit Brolly is another british nickname from umBRELLA. I’ve heard brolly but not gamp so thanks for teaching me something new! 5 stars to you!
