Word of the day by ...
I totally didn’t notice that the cats were creeping into the video. :shock: naughty cats
I remember seeing this video last summer, and now it is my random lesson; with tendencies of being a workaholic, your job on #200 is excellent :!: riddle…elddir:-) simper is a smirk, I guess
New word recest: shy, tic-tac-toe,makeup,teddy bear :!:

she’s huskier than me, you know… :cool:

Why is the skin of an orange or lemon called zest.
I am a BIG cooker and I was wondering why it’s called zest.

Hi,
Where did the word “wibble” come from and what does it really mean?

Hi Marina, i am very curious about the origin of the word “orgasm” and when people have an orgasm they dont use the word orgasm they use the word cum or cumming. where did all of this come from. thank you for you page.
Maia Marina, new word requests:
Tac-tic-toe
Equals

I have been using the word ‘Fantabulous’ for as long as I can remember.
Making it up by joining ‘Fantastic’ and ‘Fabulous’.
Teacher, am I the first to use this? Please investigate. rollee
Dear Marina.
My name is Valera and I would like to know the origin of the word “Whatchamacallit”. In the Internet I have found that this expression is shortened version of “what you may call it”. But where did we get “- chama-”, strange combination of the words, isn’t it.
Thanks a lot.
Best wishes, Valera.
In this case, the “chama” part is from rushing the words “you may” so the phrase in context might be, “Hand me that (what-you-may-call-it) over there.”
Ok – now explain thing-a-ma-jig! LOL :mrgreen:
Whatchamacallit is the brand name
of a candy bar, as its spelt.
It appears to be a portemaneau
word; using bad grammar, to
truncate a sentence down to
a single un-hyphenated word.
It sounds like a word from the
early industrial age when the
slang was more polite? :roll:
Congratulations on your bicentennial, Marina.
Enjoy a well earned rest from teaching, but not for too long – we NEEEEED our daily fix. :wink:
I would looooooooooooooooooove :lol: to know the word origin of the word etymology
Ty :razz:
Marina, were you upset that Spain beat Russia yesterday in the Euro 2008 competition?
Pity, I wanted to see a Hitman vs aLx finale… big bruhaha, right here at the website. Maybe they could still go at it… just for fun. Good luck to Spain taking on the big white machine.
According to my son , who is a big fan of soccer, (football) Germany was supposed to meet the Dutch in the final, so Russia surprised, getting to the semis.
There are probably enough Germans around here getting psyched for the game tomorrow. As I generally root for the underdogs, I say “go Spain!”
I really hope that such a cute video with such tender pictures could even have an awakening effect against those hideous crimes(abondonment,maltreatment…) against our best friends :!:
Regarding why there is a cat at the end of the video, my guess is that you are trying to restart the evolution/natural selection debate.
Cats and dogs share a common ancestor that lived a hundred million years ago.. Most mammalian “orders” (not species) then differentiated during the Paleocene epoch (65 to 55 million years ago) and can be recognized from Eocene (55 – 33 million year old) fossils.
The Creodonts, primitive meat-eaters which originated in the northern hemisphere, evolved during the Paleocene, and most were extinct by the Pliocene Epoch (5.2 million years ago). The family Carnivora, which includes dogs and cats (and bears, weasels, etc.), descended from the Creodonts, which included forms similar to the cats, dogs, hyenas and weasels.
Roughly 55 million years ago, a mammal with carnassials (teeth used for tearing flesh) evolved from the creodonts. For the next ten million years, a number of these animals evolved and flourished. Most of these small animals resembled weasels or civets. It was during this time that the Miacis of the family Miacidae, from which the dogs, cats, and some other animals evolved.
Cat lovers may be pleased to know that cats existed for millions of years before the first dogs. Or, maybe dog lovers will claim that dogs are more “evolved” than cats.
But, these arch-nemeses do, in fact, share a common ancestor and are therefore, in a sense, long, lost cousins.
You talk in terms if millions. The cat, Sparta has evolved into a huge YouTube star, 10million + views.
The reason for the cat at the end of the video is clear; she’s trying to whip Capt.Jack up into a frenzy of anticipation that she’s going to do a video on “Catsuit“
You mean, “catsuit?” http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1367/1443843289_56a461a331.jpg?v=0
No, I mean Catsuit“
You Mean she’s going to dress him in a cat suit.
I’m sure he’d be up for it. :grin:
Okay that’s enough, y’all catastrophic cacaphony of kakk-coughin’ canines! Why, I ain’t never heard such a wolf-howlin’ and a catzbawlin’ from such a passel o’ carnassial-gnashin’ creodonts in all my born days! Tell you what…
Be nice, Jack is ready to blow. Did someone say Blue Balls?
No Cat Suit!!
OH Poppy cock;
Cat are here to act as Guardians of the Under world. Everyone knows this. Ask any Pharaoh. A feline cat goddess called Mafdet is described in the Pyramid for killing a serpent with her claws. And the cat goddesses Bastet, was first revered by the ancient Egyptians some 2000Bc.
There you go. :roll:

If it’s written in an old book or on an old rock, it must be true!
I would love the know the origin of the word “Swedish”, Since I live in Sweden I think it would be very interesting too know a little about the words background!
Please pick my word! I would be so happy if you did :D
Thanks!
/Anna
That’s when you’re not a full Swede. You’re just “Swede-ish.” Hahahahahahahahahha!
It derives from your ancestors’ Proto-Germanic language: SWIHONIZ therefore means ”ONE’S OWN”,certainly referring to one’s own Germanic tribe…but this is just a modest answer,watching Marina’s video will be another thing though….
I saw this synbol in a story on the internet — :shock: PLEASE do a video on what it means :!: That was another GREAT video :!:
Hail Caesar! :mrgreen:
BLUE BALLS is the word I would like to request.
Blue balls is not something one should ever request….. one should request relief from the condition…
unless u r Papa Smurf…and then u’d have bluer-than-blue balls… :twisted:
This is what a university women gets when she’s in the mood to have a child.

Marina, I would like to know the origin of the word blonde or blondie.
Thanks. :roll:
Congratulations on 200 Marina. It has been very fun and intertaining.
I am so impressed with all the work you must put in.
With love, Bryson55
Gary Vaynerchuk in his 200th show has 2 comments & at this time 221 views on youtube, (not the only place he’s viewed) with 233 responses on his website “winelibrary.com”. He is considered very succesfull & well respected, my shop foreman watches him daily on his lunch hour & hasn’t missed a show. Some 489 or so shows posted on youtube & all the views on all his videos added up, don’t equal the views paparazzi has in one week. I’ve got John watching your videos now too & when he misses one, he asks me what the word of the day was, & I tell him what you were wearing.(and the word too)
You’ve got a unique gift Marina & I’m impressed how you developed it and use it. Glad to have been a part of your class. Have felt like more than just a student though, more like an invited guest. Like others have expressed, feel this little thing you started such a short while ago has affected my life in a positive way & just want to say thanks to you & wish you continued success & God’s blessings as yoiu go forward from here. Cheering you on \o/
BillyB,
Thank you for your heartfelt gratitude and I relate to your story.
I have a friend with whom I have been exchanging word origins for years. We always talk about funny words, origins and such. I told her about Marina last year and she signed up way before I did. (I’m an unassuming introvert)
Now, when I go up to my friend and say, “Guess what I learned today?”, she comes back with, “OK, don’t tell me, I bet this has something to do with Marina?”, then, we both crack up because we know that Marina has made an impact. Then, I fill her in on what I learned and the things that Marina has inspired in me.
Like you BillyB, I also feel like an invited guest.
Thank you Marina for sharing your passion with us.
BillyB,
I believe that you’ve expressed, very clearly, all of our feelings.
Thank you BillyB and Marina, thank you for all of your efforts.
This site has affected so many people in a positive way that any more of an explanation is not enough.
Marina thank you for opening the door and letting us come in.
Screw that. Do the word soccer :!:
it’s A ACRONYM
¿Screw?
I’m keeping Marina’s secret to myself.
Initially, I told a bunch of my associates
but they’re all “odd ducks”. At some
point they will “discover” Marina and
by then I will be old skool, Until then,
these guys will have to be happy
with video’s like 2 girls 1 cup – yuck!
When the deluge hits, I’ll be at the
crest in the wave. I like to bodysurf
so that puts me exactly where I
like it! Besides, It’ll be fun to watch
more newbs ask for all the dirty words
they can think of – there is a limit
to that, y’know. Once that the hook
has set we’ll just keep reeling them
in and edjakating them. I’ll catch ‘em,
you guys can skin ‘em and inviscerate
‘em and Marina can clean ‘em & fry ‘em. :mrgreen:
She seems to have a knack for being
able to deal with all us personality
types – from WWF and NASCAR types
to horn rimmed studious types, and
us “regular” guys, too. :grin:
From the pics, I see Marina attracts
a few good looking girls to her site.
I dated a girl who attracted a bevy
of beauties around her everytime
we would go out. I was a little
jealous, I guess and remarked
to her that “she gets all the pu$$y”
She just smiled and said:
“Aren’t you glad I share?”
Love that girl… :mrgreen:
:smile: since you already have done “mutt” and talked about dogs, can you please tell me about the phrase “dog gone”? thank you.
Deja Vu is the word i would like to request :roll:
Vuja De! I have a feeling I’ve never done this before :mrgreen:
Where’s Dave JaVu when you need him, anyway?
I feel like I’ve read this comment before.
Not again! :neutral:
Deja Vu :roll:
Here it comes, again!
I have some sad news to report about Barney that was in HFW 200th Video. Barney passed away yesterday. Barney was not my dog. He lived with two of my boating friends, Steven and Jinny on a 40 ft. boat in Seattle, Wa. Steven also passed on March 7th. Both of them are surely missed. :neutral:
Barney
I feel you. Take heart in the
fact that they are at peace. :sad:
gratz you
I was wondering what the origin of “Freckle” and /’red headed step-child” might be. /love the site and congrats on your 200th! :mrgreen:
Wonder if this correlates
to “frick and frack” in any
connotations.
Good request! :mrgreen:

Congrats to your 200th… video (not birthday ;-))!! May you have other thousands, you are definitely the funniest and most interesting channel on Youtube. Attractive and educational.
Your trusty student
ZEUS is one BIG dog. “walkies’ or ‘fetch’ must be fun. :sad:
Marina, congratulations on your 200th video and a thousand more to come.
You are the best and a sweetheart!!!
A thousand hugs and kisses… ♥♥♥
Thank you for the recognition of my dog Spot. :wink:
P.S.
For those of you not from Calif, there are automobile commercials on TV where the owner of the business is seen in the commercial with his dog Spot. In the commercial, his dog Spot is always different and could be a monkey, a camel, a cat, a snake or some other animal which is always named as his dog Spot. :lol:
Cal Worthington, I think. Yeah, some of those were purt redickless. It worked as an ad gimmick, though. In all likelihood, neither you nor I have bought a car from that guy, but we both recognize and recall the gimmick years later. Go see Cal, Go see Cal, Go see Cal!
the 2nd dog picture is exactly what my dog looks like whoever sent it. A golden lab. The only difference is that my dog is a she.
This website is going to the dogs! Literally! :lol:
Congrats on your 200th video, Marina. I’ve probably caught only half of the videos so far, but I must admit I have learned a lot about philology and other philophile-related info. Keep up the good work! Peace, Errin
p.s. Kobe is still the cutest dog of all. Me, I want a dog like Columbo, and it can wear a doggy-sized raincoat. I’d name it Columbo Dog, and it would solve crimes. :grin:
A crime solving dog. That would be cool. :cool:
I see dogs working at Department of Homeland Security all the time.
I love your videos, you attitude, your style…I only wish you were crazy about middle aged Italian men who rescue stray dogs and find them homes.
200 hundred videos?, I’ll watch when you’ve done 2000!~ We should all be very smart by then with Vocabularys out the wazzoo…hmm Wazoo, I wonder the origin of that strange word?
Next time it rains cats and dogs, I’ll check to see if any of these critters are dropping in for a visit.
You rang? http://www.hotforwords.com/2007/12/30/cats-and-dogs/
You knew that was coming, right?
Kewl new gravatar. :smile:
You know what’s worse than raining cats and dogs?
Hailing taxis! Hahahahahahahhahahahah!!!!
Hey – I know I recycled that joke, but it just keeps gettin’ funnier every time!
Faster pussycat! Kill! Kill!
Marina, can I request that you dress up like a Watusi Cat…..?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSdtmHhZd0I
Great trailer! Thanks for the link prospero811.
I thawt I thaw a puddy cat. I did…! I did thaw a puddy cat…!
A CAT?
Ya know, there’s something scwewy going on awound here!
Marina, congratulations on your 200th video. Also, thank you for all the effort, that this must have involved. :smile:
I think we should all send in our koala bear pictures.
What’s new pussycat? (Verboten: No word hacking permitted!)
May I please wag the dog?
If you’re going to do that, please do it in private. :lol:
I didn’t say, “May I please shag the dog?”
:!:
Conratulations on your 200th show Marina!
200 more please.
I kept waiting for the dancing to start.
I stood up the whole time waiting to dance with you :cry:
Thank you Marina.
Cat fights. Dogs of war. These are violent creatures!
I’d much rather be in the middle of a cat fight than a dog fight.
Now having seen the video, yes, they really are all cute. I wish they could have all been identified. Regarding the cliffhanger ending, maybe 201 will be all cat pictures. :?:
…
A gallery of fur balls. Sure, why not? I can roll with it.
I have a few pictures of my sister’s pussy. I even have videos! He’s a very large Maine Coon. He’s not to smart! But fun to watch him chase the laser beam. My sister calls him budda boy. Or just a freak in his weird mood days.
.
.
What!?! I heard that back there! Yea, you in the back! Your sick!
On an episode of Johnny Carson one of the Gabor (Zsa Zsa or Ava) sisters was a guest and she had brought her cat with her. She sat there petting it while she talked and Johnny kept looking up at the camera like “can you believe this”. At one point she looked up at Johnny and asked him if he’d like to pet her pussy? Johnny smiled and said, “Sure, if you get that damn cat off of your lap”.
Johnny Carson was a comic genius.
I would also like to congratulate you, Marina, on the 200th video here at HotForWords. The way things have gone here, it won’t be long before the next milestone is reached. :smile:
Congrats on your 200th Marina…..Great Job…I look forward to seeing number 500!! :mrgreen:
huckabuck
I heard this word the other day and thought it would be perfect for you.
what does this mean and where did it come from? :mrgreen:
Hey Marina,
Could you do the word “camera” for your next vid? Thanks :smile:
Cool! Another French lesson.. :mrgreen:
Chouette !!!!
Were her eyes brown now? just optic distortion, distraction, deception, or disruption, dissolution, disappointment, ok.
Notice the Danes name? See a trend? Some girls do and some don’t.
You know what brown eye mean? Your full of it, to your eyes!
btw I can tall crap about brown eyes all I want. :mrgreen:
LOL! Cap’n Jack!
Brown eyes are just deep, deep blue
…and brown hair is just another
dirty blonde needing highlights. :mrgreen:
I have a lady friend with fiery red hair who says that a blonde is just a redhead with the fire f&£*£d out of her. :shock:
200th!!!!!! YEA!!!!!!!!! Congratulations Marina!!!! Heres to 200 more…Raise your glass and give a big toast to our wonderful teacher!!! :grin:
Hip Hip Horay. Hip Hip Horay! :grin:
Cap I read you your hit on the pinche jue’ on that Spanish site, good rip.
Thanks RR,
The one thing that pisses me off more than anything is a blockhead that rips on someone much smarter than they are. Two, and any blockhead that tries to insult any of my friends will get one hell of a tongue lashing. I even had a friend on YT (Nightflyer – Dave) asked me to make some comments about this one blockhead that thought it was stupid to fly a RC helicopter without a tail rotor. I think it was a great way to practice flying just in case your tail rotor failed. Some people just need to keep their traps shut!…. :???:
Hey wheres the party? I thought we where going to have a party :?: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:
Happy 200th video, Marina.
You GO girl!
:cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:
Nice “Jane Russell” by the way
guff guff!
poor Hunter…
Your fans did a really good job!
Those pics must make you laugh. :grin:
Were those all the pics? Or just Marina’s top picks…
A guess would be that she chose as many interesting, hi res shots as she could manage in a “2 minute biscuit”*
*slang for a quick snappy song, easily played.
Rita Hayward? Jane Russell?
Naah! Looked like Brigitte Bardot to me.
Happy 200th hope therebe many more
Third herd!
Gotta love that pinup pic at 4:20….wonder if there’s a connection. Hmmmm. :roll:
That is a good photo edit, Did someone say the body was Rita Hayward or is it the Teacher.?
If more dog pics mean more pics of Marina in a bikini….
fgvfr
Damn boy got to get up earlier then that
First!!
Fantastic. Sorry Elite Panda. I had to knock you off! :razz: :razz:
Now I can go get my dinner! Im starved! :mrgreen:
Go eat now !
Thats odd we were switched???
You must be pet?
We can tell time, huh? :mrgreen:
Congrats on being first!
If you look it is a tie for first Jack old Man. Time stamp 8:41 PM: :lol:
I had my response pre-typed and then did a copy paste on a new word. So I had to retype as fast as I could.
Well that might be Sir RR. But races are won by seconds not minutes. :mrgreen: Just ask BillyB. I do have to say that was a freaking close race. :shock: Had I not screwed up in the final lap my lead would have been greater. I have a sailboat charter tomorrow so Im almost sure I wont get it again. Unless I get back early. It all depends if the gods of wind are with me.
So I must bask in my 24 hours of little fame. :mrgreen:
You won, There is no dought that Marina was pulling for ya, Jack.
Have a good day sailing tomorrow. Maybe go rescue a puppy. A good boat dog will keep the rats away.
Way to reel one in captain! :smile:
Oh fishing joke. I don’t know how to fish. :oops: I think I need to go see my buddies up in Alaska.
