(I left some out – don’t want to take ALL the fun!) :mrgreen:

Where’s your homework, boys? :mrgreen:

Sorry melika I am busy being antagonistic :razz:

the word is: HYPONOIA; a friend of mine’s nickname….

Here’s some Steve Miller gold
Your cash ain’t nuthin’ but trash

13 th

so .. cash and cache have the same origin?

Could this be a portemaneau form
of hypo(chondriac) + (para)noia? :mrgreen:

other words for money:

moolah
samolians
clams
bills
bread
dough
dollars
bucks
greenbacks
smackers
scratch

Moolah, Loo+, five dollars called a “fin”, bread, $$, dough, paper $ “bills”…gotta go earn some.
Is it possible to be called rude for cutting yourself off, rather abruptly?

In the USA we have a lot of words for cash;
Scratch, Green, Jingle, Grease, Change, Coin, Moola
There are more, I can’t recall them directly.

Dear Marina, Well, I’ve learned from experience that a few of your fans are jealous and possessive of you, to the point of vituperation at me. So today, my response to you will be circumspect. (This doesn’t mean inspection of circums.)
For your homework, bread, dough, moola, MPCs, bucks, lettuce, scratch, greenbacks, long green, dead Presidents, flying eagles, sawbucks, fin, C-notes, Jacksons, Franklins, Grants, cash, and money. What a fine opening image of your tiny waist and trim behind, packed with good-time paper!

I saw a few more of your earlier videos and noticed how you sat closer to the camera and would lean forward for a close-up to emphasize something. You were more attractive that way. Now you sit further away from the camera so we see your hand gestures and body language, for better overall communication. For me, it’s Hobson’s choice. Your dear student, seesixcm6

I bought a better camera seesixcm6, but the result is that I sit further back from the camera.. as I can’t get in that close with this new one.

But I am going to go back to recording with the Macbook camera again… it’s more personable as you say. (I just have to clear some files off my drive first.)

:-)

Nobody noticed my new pop-up music player I added yesterday…. look for the music icon somewhere on the site and click on it… (not the one in the menu.. there is another icon somewhere :-) )

Marina

Some fans ARE feeling possessive,
and obssessive, and some have a
crush, and some get jealous, and
overzealous! Don’t let the fuss faze
you, or put you off your game.
Have fun with it :mrgreen:

the one next to “posts feed”?

I like scratch… and I wonder where it comes from… as there are no real theories… perhaps it comes from “scratching your way to the top”.. or “scratch” which means nothing in some regards… so working for scratch could have meant nothing and then transferred to mean money from there… but then again.. scratch to mean nothing occurs in 1922 but scratch meaning money goes all the way back to 1914… so a bit of a mystery here.

Did you try it?

yeah, playlist. how about adding some other music? make it a really long one? like, a mix for everybody.

Greenbacks, Dinero, Spondulicks, Bread, Dosh, Dough, Lolly, Loot, Readies, Moolah, Bucks, Ching Ching, Stash, Quid, Clams, Mint.

HwK: For cash register machines it’s called a cash drawer

Word Request; draw

Hwk: my favorite for cash is: wam

I noticed :grin: ,tought it was kind of a weird placement..

the only context for it I’ve heard
is “scratching out a living (wage)”

Cool! audio-on-demand!
Definitely needs more
full blown Ron Jenkees! :mrgreen:

The origin of a scratch is an itch. :cool:

Maybe it has something to do with the money/evil concept? The devil was once nicknamed “Scratch” and money is the root of all evil (or the love thereof depending on the proverb), so maybe it has something to do with that?

I found it. There were 7 selections and I listened to most of them. You have fine taste in music. I kind of hoped you played your own music on a synthesizer. :-) I hope the musicians donated the rights for use of their music. (But I’m afraid not.) I would, if I could play anything! seesixcm6

Feeling around in your pocket for money that’s not there looks like your scratching. :wink:

By the way, is that your butt in those jeans?

Pieces of Eight! Pieces of Eight!

hotforwords :)
i’d like you to find the origin of the word “jonas” as in The Jonas Brothers, because they seem to be very popular right now!
& also, my favorite word for cash, is loot hahaha…

The only thing about that music… is it is only music that I have permission to use… so if we want to increase the number of songs.. I need people to find me unsigned musicians who have tracks I can add.

“scratch” or more correctly “old scratch” the devil, thats what a Man does when he has an itch under his balls, thats where cash comes from, from scratching the devil out of that itch.

I noticed it marina!! about 3 hours ago

I got a really nice bit of music I had permission to use http://www.youtube.com/virtjk

whoa! me too! no, wait, it was yesterday! no! the week before! it wasn’t even there yet when i noticed it!

wtf ..

In another sense of a definition M0 is cash, with M1 – M3 being less liquid forms of cash.

Contrary to common belief; even though the mint prints money; the government does not create money; even though it regulates its creation. Anyone care to guess where money is actually created?

Cash is still king, but more people are using cards and slowing things up. I don’t care what Visa portrays in commercials cash is often much, much quicker, and I’m talking about in real terms having delt with volumes of both.

M0 = empty set?

On the opening picture. :shock:
I want to say nice ass. :cool:
But would I be talking about the tender parts or the green backs :oops:
This could be a new Fad.
But certaintly not a good example of someone that needs more attractant in that direction. :razz:
Bring to mind my favorite music video: :idea:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iYpboTjtoQ

And I think that’s Kobe in a scene. :smile:
Good check to see if your still alive. :twisted:

I’ll mail you some money as soon as Soupy Sales sends it back.

James.. that’s the guy who did a collab with Jenkees, right? Let me know if you see any of his music that would be good for me to use.

In your video when you said “cassa” means box, I thought you were going to say house or home. Question: In your Casino video you covered “casa”; is “cassa” meaning box in Italian related to “casa” meaning house or home as they are both boxes; one is holding money the other holding people.

:idea: In the docks & shipyards of course.

they let you download their albums for free, i think. check it out.

I love the music player and listened to them all. Great music choices. Maybe signed artists can offer permission you to use their music as it would be an advertising of their music. What is some of your favorite music signed or not?

There’s only one true Cash; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SmVAWKfJ4Go

nine inch nails: the slip, free download, dig it.

Wow, VERY suttlely located. :shock:
Like an Easter Egg Hunt! :roll:
This ups the antee to pay attention all the more. :wink:

Yeah, I’ve even been sending this one to people.

Good morning Miss M. Just picking at you did you know you said 1696 instead of 1596. I guess you’ll have to spend time in time out or detention. GREAT video, I often wondered where that word originated from. Everyone has all ready done the home work so I don’t have any thing to add. So I’ll spend timeout with you. :smile:

Good Golly, Miss BOLLY!
Was it a coincidence that you were wearing that shirt for this video?
In the UK, 500 Pounds is known as a Monkey and 25 Pounds as A Pony.
The explanation for this is that these nicknames were brought back from India by soldiers serving there in the army; whilst in India they were paid in Rupees and the Monkey and Pony were the animals depicted on the 500 Rupee and 25 Rupee notes at the time.

Of course, I forgot to mention that Bob was also slang for the old Shilling in the UK.
A bob was a money collection where participants put in a shilling each, usually for drinks. The expression then arose “to get your two bob’s worth” which meant something was very good value.

Hey Marina,
I am wondering what the origin of the word “kiwi” is, as kiwi can refer to a type of bird or a fruit. Why are these two different things described by the same word? Thanks.

hello my dear teacher :smile: & fellow students :smile: hmmm im wondering whether the word ‘cache’ has something to do with ‘cash’ because pronunciation is same,
where im from the money is ‘paisa’ :smile: also ‘dinar’ & some others :)

Request: I heard that Obama is a “little wet behind the ears”. Where where did the phrase come from?

Small coins and loose change is variously referred to as shrapnel, confetti or grapeshot.

After the man scratches up some cash, it makes it way to the two reserve vaults every man carry around with him. There it waits patiently waiting for some needy woman banker to come along and place a amount of cash into circulation.

Very good lesson, dear teacher !

being a foreigner, homework is not easy for this lesson.
Some alternate words for cash caught my eye : dough / bread
in French “blé” (wheat) is also cash : is it a coincidence or not ?

do you know of other languages using the bread/dough/wheat metaphor use for money ?
maybe pedanticKarl and othe foreigners can share their mother-language knowledge ?

Your back-from-’netless-holidays student

so, what’s up with “koba”?

hey teacher.

i found this lesson really good i enjoyed it. thank you for your time and patience with us. though i cant promise to behave being as i am 19 lol.

I like the one from Ronald Jenkins about the guitar played on a key board. I wish M would use it more often. :smile:

“HIV virus” is also redundant. People say that one all the time.

Hello my dear Teacher,

hello ms.orlova , my beautifull teacher :mrgreen:

Notice what? You did something with your hair? Hummm the new Bollywood blouse? New bathroom spray? humm
Music player…Oh that? huh yea. I did. :wink:

Not only did I notice it, Last night I demonstrated it to a good friend of mine who is planning to stop using dot mac and switch to wordpress. He wanted to have the music play in the background when a page was loaded. I told him that is annoying as heck. I showed him your new little plug in, and he seemed to be interested in it. :grin: Interesting note, on Boriel’s website (the guy that made the plugin) shows a Sinclair computer pictured on the top of his site. That computer was sold in the US under the Timex corporation. It was the second computer I learned to programmed on. The Apple II computer was my first.

I also notice your new comment counter and your widget titles are darker. I see a link on the bottom for your music player. Oh and also at this time of posting you have 56 people viewing your page. Am I missing anything? Why is it I feel like im in trouble? :roll: :mrgreen:

hey,
just wondering, what does magenta mean

:smile:

Wow, I didn’t see that music link yesterday. Do I get detention for snoozing (you snooze you loose)?

Cash, the cure for disease brought on by too many unneeded operations .

“HIV virus” is also redundant parthenophilast is also redundant thats why your cured now.

I think Ronald Jenkins is a god. I have a YouTube playlist of his music that I play in the background. Im just waiting for him to release his CD. I found a few pieces that I plan to use as a theme song on my videos. We have already talked about licensing. Ronald is one heck of a cool guy. :mrgreen:

James said “For fucks sake. I was changing my gravatar im getting really pissed off with you now so I am starting a flame war”

“YOU SMELL!”

Hey James , Don’t expect a warm lunch if your not at the table when it’s served. :neutral:

Marina here is a link to free ITunes down loads. You may could use some of these.
Mike

http://www.itsfreedownloads.com/music-widgets/

hmm thats odd. my videos arent doing too well so I uploaded a video called “she likes it hard XXX porn” and would you believe.. 250 hits already I wonder why !! oh yes oh yes.. oh god that thumbnail is good.

Actually Marina I used a small piece of his music as ending credits to my video. And will use it on all my “projects”(videos I planned, not made up on the spot.” I emailed him and he was happy for me to use the music and said he wouldnt really turn anyone down. But there are alot of good bits in that track.

Is the word testify related to the word testicle?

mmmmm, green stuff. Maybe I better get going on getting some lottery tickets and try to be 2 rich to work.

Is it me or does anyone else see the humor in this?
A lesson on cash shortly after one on leech.

Man everyone should see James’s video. It is just out of this world. I mean some great shots too. :cool:

I know its good yes?

I’d like to know the origin of the word “gibberish”! :D

i wanna see my monster!!

no

Cha-ching
Green stuff
Moola
Coin
Wallet cider
Folding stuff
Greenbacks
Jingle

And my grandmother’s favorite…”Whoopie coupons”

Actually, yes. It’s from the latin word “testes” which means witnesses. ONes testes were considered “witnesses” to oaths, and when soldiers took oaths of loyalty prior to battle, they grabbed their testes and recited their oaths…such that their future offspring would be witnesses to their loyalty.

I quote `em as I hear `em : “caisse which means money bucks” :)

Why is it that “one thousand” contains the letter A, but none of the words from one to nine hundred ninety-nine has an A?

yeah, and they don’t have a tail, either. now that is weird!

killjoy

So.. Marina likes to keep her cash in her back pocket. NAIS!
I keep it in this thing called a portmoneu aka wallet.
Both are funky looking words if you ask me. :P

There is a solid connection, betrayed by: “[...]if you want to send me some cash, it’s always welcome” :-)
Wannabe leacher! :D

Really now?! :-)
Gimme linkzzz… or die! :D

How about this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYctbbWWzzo

well we have the terms moolah and dough

i would like to know the origin words of breakfast and contender :mrgreen:

Breakfast is two words Break and Fast. I think it means too break a fast.
Correct me if I’m wrong…. anyone.
Contender is a small jar you put stuff….. no it’s a bowl like object you strain food….. no that’s not it either.

I’m late for school

Thats okay… If your lucky sell keep you after class :grin:

Marina,

How often does your view total update? :grin:

yeah

Words for Cash:
Moolah
Casa
Dinars
Shells
Wampum
bones
Greenbacks
“Dead Presidents”
Ching ching
Paper
Cheese
Spends
That’s all I can think of now.

word request: spank.

Why is it enough to use the word “slap” with respect to hands, faces, etc., but with respect to the butt, it’s “spank?”

Breakfast means to break the fast, the nightly fast.
You’re thinking of container! LOL
Contender comes from words meaning to strive or exert effort.

heheheh James is learning a very ancient marketing trick. :lol:

Click on his name and it’ll take you there. :smile:

Both are probably Onomatopoeias ie., words that sound like what they describe. The sound must be different when you slap than when you spank.

I was wondering if you can make a video on the name “Sirenia”.
I know you made a video on the word “siren” already, but I’m not exactly sure if “siren” is associated with the name “Sirenia”. I’d also like to know where it came from and if it’s a popular name to use for a person. Thank you!!!!!!!!! :smile:

This is a funny quote for all of us that copy paste things from the net:

“Copy from one, it’s plagiarism -copy from two, it’s research.” – Wilson Mizner 1876-1933

I always feel a bit violated when someone copies my stuff. Now days I think is as a complement that my works was good enough to be copied. :cool:

An old friend of mine used to call dollar bills “frog-skins”.
I am supposing it was his own concoction.

Another word for cash is “honey-money!” … to buy the sweet things in life.

Banks create money when the loan out money that has been deposited.

The deposited money is still is counted with M1, but a percentage ( regulated by the government ) can be loaned out to generate interest which pays the interest to the depositor and to the bank for its wages and expenses. The loaned money also enters the money supply ( in M0 ). Money has been created. The loaned money is used to buy a car, house, or whatever and remains in the economy. As the loan is repaid the bank can honor the deposit when withdrawn ( from the required reserves ) or loaned out again, creating more money again.

Jealous …
Posessive …
Perhaps in many of the cases. But, remember that Marina has so
many people just trying to get in a word edgewise (and never has
there been a web-site so BEGGING to have that said). With thousands

Dear teacher,
Excellent video, and as usual an incredible historical reference to the latin. As the latin and the greek are so important in philology, won’t it be interesting to make a lesson about the two civilizations, for the “vulgum pecus” that I am? Thanks a lot!
Bucks is a synonym of dollars, as gold, or pound. In France we say: ‘tune (for fortune), flouz, pez, pognon, blé, cash (as in american), bifton (more used when related to notes) and there are much more that I don’t remember.

Hi Marina,

Again a very nice lesson, thanks !
But as a French guy I’m a bit concerned by your French pronunciation :roll:
Maybe phonetics could be helpful. So “caisse” would be [k][è][s] and “caissier” sounds like [k][è][s][J][é] (almost like if you where spelling K C A)

Maybe other french could help me on this, I don’t really master phonetics :D

Bye bye dear teacher. Be good :mrgreen: :wink:

Here you go shadowslayer. She did that video last Halloween so enjoy. If you need to find where Marina has her lessons that she has done it’s at the top of the page. :smile:

Dear fellow student,
Of course, our french hears may be surprised by our teacher’s pronunciation, but don’t you like her “r”? Don’t you like the sound of “caissier “in her mouth… Once I had the same idea:” we should tell the teacher that this is not the right pronunciation”, but I think we will lose something. Is Francis Cabrel always the same guy without is accent and his mustache?

the backside in the photo looks like jailbait. or she could be saying if your gonna play the video you gotta pay.

“There it waits patiently waiting for some needy woman banker to come along and place a amount of cash into circulation.” Did eye say needy eye should have said greedy/needy.

As we all know, George Bush is an idiot.

Put 1/2 as much time chasing real girls as you do here you will be up to your arm pits in real girls. Real as in girls you have a snow ball’s chance in hell of getting. You don’t want to be a 40 year old virgin and still chasing a chimerical woman on the internet?? Do you?? :lol:

Hey someone ask Marina why her nick name is Koba. She never said :?:

You mention filthy lucre.
Contaminated-Cash. After watching the video, one of the things going through my mind all day at work was what my mom told me as a kid “wash your hands after playing with money”.
Will washing be enough?
Blasphemy is not profanity.(I believe) Blasphemy is what Jesus was charged with in the mock trial. Profanity is a “disregard” of things sacred, blasphemy is more of an “attack” on things sacred. But I do get the point of your links.

Idiot comes from the Latin word idiota and the Greek word idiotes. Both of these words referred to an ordinary person or one who lacks professional skill. So, since President Bush’s job requires professional knowledge and skill, he isn’t really an idiot.

and me

Next time? C-man, you go to court often?

Hi melika.. Its nearly 2am and as time goes by my levels of understanding people go through the floor. Pllease could you explain to me why you are calling me trip.. what video you want me to mak and what a pb n j sandwich is.. Thanks……… Sorry..

well .. the job may require professional knowledge and skill, but evidence suggests he may not fulfill those requirements. Thus, he may still be categorized as an idiot.

Thanks for your support :mrgreen:

I am so mean.. I want 5 more subscribers. so I did one of those sub4sub things then when they subscribed to me.. I unsubscribed from them… HAHA my limitless power is tireless and eve…………..ok i need sleep now

The root word electric originates from the mid 1600′s, when English physician William Gilbert coined the phrase by combining the Latin word electrum and the Greek word elektron. Both of these words mean “amber”. The electric current was first generated by rubbing two pieces of amber together. “Electric” was used in English language by Sir Thomas Browne in 1646. :smile:

lol @ your Contaminated-Cash link!

I wonder how high inflation needs to be before the goodness contained within the substance of the banknotes has more value than that which the notes represent.

Your reply to melika:
why you are calling me trip.. what video you want me to mak and what a pb n j sandwich is..
Answer:
‘Trip’ because you fell down.
pb n j= Peanutbutter and jelly

melikadothechacha – Is that you, Obama?

Well, the word’s connotation has changed from someone who does not have special skill to one that has no skill at all. :shock:

I woulda givin’ ya five stars just for the hellofit! …bring up your average , ya know? :grin:

PBNJ = peanut butter and jelly
Most people just slather a gob
on a hunk of bread and slap
together a sandwich.

In a demonstration video, you could
make “gourmet” PBNJ’s by altering
the technique in an interesting way.
Briefly explain the properties of the
ingredients: bread , Peanut butter
and jelly. Use a spoon and a small
bowl to mix a generous amount of
peanut butter with half again as
much jelly (50-50 mix is too soupy)
Do not overmix! Ribbons of jelly
through the peanut butter have
the desiored visual effect. Then,
slather a gob on a hunk of bread
and slap together a sandwich!
Sliced banana thrown in works
for another visual effect and
sells the “gourmet” aspect.

Maybe this one snot for you.

Marina, always a pleasure to see your YouTube posts. I would like to hear the origin of the word “gross”. Why? Well, it actually has several meanings that are all different from each other…and I thought it would be interesting.

You’re both beautiful and extremely intelligent plus very creative, it is no wonder you have so many fans–and I am sure more than a few crushes as well…

keep up the great videos!

‘cache’ was a term coined in an IBM journal , to refer to a temporary buffer and the term stuck. I guess it sounded sexier.

‘cache’ comes from the French word cacher – ‘to hide’.
Different origin to the word ‘cash’.

It’s Maher or Colbert or even Stern but….
How high does inflation need to get?
maybe this old New York Times article can help with your question.

As Jimmy Carter stepped before the television cameras in the East Room of the White House last Friday, his task was not just to proclaim another new anti-inflation program but to calm a national alarm that had begun to border on panic. Inflation and interest rates, both topping 18%, are so far beyond anything that Americans have experienced in peacetime—and so far beyond anything that U.S. financial markets are set up to handle—as to inspire a contagion of fear. Usually confident businessmen and bankers have begun talking of Latin American-style hyperinflation, financial collapse, major bankruptcies, a drastic drop in the American standard of living.
But the troubles had been building up for more than a decade, said Carter, and they could be traced largely to “our failure in Government, as individuals and as a society to live within our means. ” Glossing over his own record of rapidly rising spending and huge deficits, both of which contradicted his firm campaign pledges of 1976,
History is a cruel master learn it or repeat it

It’s NOT Maher or Colbert or even Stern but…. :oops:

I want request u word “ecstasies” what it means and what for

My girlfriend always uses this when she is with me. She says u and me

The root of all evil is the LUST of money

LUST ie: want, craving, desire

I heard an interesting comment here in France: “Most French people speak some English, they’re just afraid because the accent is so bad.”

hi marina

hi marina! :mrgreen:
its me, misscupcake! YAY. :mrgreen:
i used to post alot on an old xbox forum, and they had the same smilies you have here, YAY! :wink:

anyways, i want to request the origin of ‘can of worms’

example. today i opened a can of worms when i told my dad i do not like his girlfriend.

HAHAHA

yay!

mooolah

:shock: omg i just thought of something

everyone uses ‘lol’ to show they are laughing.
but what would a russian person say?
because lol means ‘laugh out loud’.

but not everyone speaks english!
so i wanna know what to type for ‘lol’ in russian!
and all languages!

yay!
:mrgreen: :grin: :!:
i like smilies :cool:

Let’s see….cabbage, dead presidents, moola, green stamps…

In French, they say MDR : mort de rire (dying laughing).

Marina. The correct pronunciation of “caisse” is kess. The final e is silent. Just thought I’d let you know. Love the video! You seem happier than usual, in fact!

In French the most used slang word for CASH is POGNON.
And POGNE comes from anothe slang word POGNE meaning “hand”.
But this POGNE comes from a normal word which is POING “fist” from the Latin PUGNUM.
The Latin PUGNUM is likely connected to Slavic PIAST’ = FIST and even FIST could be akin. The indoeuropean root could be “FIVE”.
Compare FIST = FIVE for the English (it’s really similar) (five fingers).
Compare PIAST’ = PIAT’ = 5 for the Slavic. :idea: :idea: :idea:

yatatoo, you are so right. I also pointed out the pronunciation mistake. Nicely, of course. But you actually wrote out the pronunciation phonetically. Bravo! I didn’t go to that much trouble. Maybe we should have Marina ask one of us how to pronounce French words? donfelipegonzales, you, me, and a couple of other French speakers frequent Marina’s marvelous web site. Of course, I’m not a native speaker. Just have a master’s degree in the language. You guys are natives!

Hello Marina..

I am wanting to find the meaning of “GRUNT”..As in a US Infantry Soldier.

My experience has been that I’ve heard pognon, cash, and blé more than the other ones. But I’ve heard all these terms at one time or another.

Marina, you are the perennial geek. I love it when you talk geeky…
“about the inherited css… I always have problems with that!” :grin:

You must have made a ton of changes in the last few days, way too many to mention. I noticed that you also have the music player link way at the bottom. Your contact stuff has also changed. I love the comments counter and TubeMogul Daily Views graph which is helping me predict when you hit 100 million views. I made the prediction on the Nickname video page. :cool:

I thought it was the monkey that one spanked……

Hi Marina, for my homework greese, greenback, bennies, and currency.

Does ching ching refer to the sound of coins spilling out of a slot machine? Of course, nowadays, almost all one-armed bandits have that one arm for show only, and the payola is a redeemable ticket.

If you eat your Wheaties, you’ll become a contender.

Sorry prospero811, I had to laugh at buzzword’s retort. Of course, he’s WAY off base! :mrgreen:

Did you mean porte-monnaie ?

I think that’s an excellent question. I’ll second that request.

I thought it meant there’s a pond behind the cornfield. Maybe not.

I,m interested in where the word mummy came from, my youtube name is sptaznut

I’m surprised nobody mentioned Tango & Cash. It takes two to tango, but you can’t tango long without cash.

merci beacoup! :mrgreen:

G’day misscupcake. I love your HFW impersonations. :grin:

LOL gday and thanks! :) :grin: :razz: :mrgreen: :smile: :cool:

I also loved your German quote on your profile page. :lol:
“Was dich nicht tötet macht dich stark”
(transl: “That which does not kill you, makes you strong”)

Ching ching refers to the sound of money registers like in soda shops and hardware stores from the late 1900s to the early part of the 20th century.

When I heard the song “Money makes the world go round, the world go round” I thought I was being lied to in science class. LOL

I’m always learnin` sumtin` here! :cool:

I would like to know where the word “touché” came from. I love to use that word.

uhm…
why do we sometimes call a rabbit, a bunny?!
and is the term bunny rabbit correct? :P
I ask because I’ve never heard of exact synonyms in the animal kingdom before. Maybe there’s a story behind it… I hope :D

that’s another word for it, sure.

Hello:
I would like to know the etemology of the phrase “put two and two together.”

… and .. now that we simians have drifted from “cash” to “radio political opinion” you (and this includes you, roadrunrnch) might find this other radio interview interesting …

[AntiWar Radio: Scott Horton Interviews Pat Buchanan]
Pat Buchanan, conservative commentator and author, most recently of Churchill, Hitler and the Unnecessary War, discusses the crisis in Georgia, why he thinks the Russian action on behalf of South Ossetia was justified…

He is eloquently inaniloquent. :smile:

Hmmm…. forgot about that! Yes, butts get spanked, and monkeys get spanked, but most other things get slapped. Weird.

Actually, when one spanks the monkey one doesn’t actually “spank,” does one?

btw, found the pic on this site, if anyone’s interested in loads n loads of pics that have nothing to do with etymology.

[pixadus]

Aw, man! That’s cold!

Was it actually a retort? I didn’t tort in the first place, so how can be a REtort? Hmmm….

That’s o.k. lividemerald – you can have a laugh at my expense! I can take it! I’ll keep a stiff…upper lip!

Actually, roadrunrnch, I just saw a Mythbusters episode where they proved that you can fold a piece of paper in half 10 times. It was a really large piece of paper.

My word request is more than just a word. I was curious as to where the phrase “pulling at your heart strings” or just “heart strings” came from. Thanks Marina.

It looked like the sour warheads were pretty sour as the way you made the faces. I have never tried them. I don’t like sour candy. Good to see you this site. Come around more often that is when your doing another video. :smile:

erm .. yes, BillyB. If you say so.

[What happened when Georgia attacked South Ossetia]

South Ossetia is officially part of Georgia.

other names: Cheta, pilim :wink:

I have two request Marina. First is ACME (maybe an acronym), second is Heretic.

Thanks and I love the lessons!

Oh… Dont know if I could eat that.. Sounds horrible

… but is independent in spirit and in practice … hence the need for the Russian protection from the Georgians.

check out …
[AntiWar Radio: Scott Horton Interviews Pat Buchanan]

I am glad you add Ron Jenkees’s guitar music to the player. :wink:

pros,

officials officially officiating from offices far removed. official is just a word for information made formal and public. it is not necessarily a reality, frequently its just bullshit. not arguing with you just pointing out the limitations of official information.

Marina, could you tell me the origin of the word catwalk?
You are the hotest teacher ever

buzz – yes – but by officially, I meant “legally.” Under international law, South Ossetia is not an independent country, it is part of Georgia. It is not part of Russia.

mjjj – yes – it is “de facto” semi-autonomous, but it is “de jure” a part of Georgia. It is not part of Russia, whether de facto or de jure.

Very nice kitten. Looks like a cozy place to be :mrgreen:

in my opinion, russia was asked to intercede, but they did so in a manner that best served their interests and goals. the conflict has slowly been escalating between georgia and osettia. should have been opportunities to avoid this result. all the governments and world organizations involved failed to resolve the issues that led to this conflict. once again civilization fails.

Yes. I have finally mastered the high quality button

No evil forks are needed, Trip!
You would be the ONLY British
person to ever do this…
For King and Country, James?

pros,

whatever the rest of the world thinks and the official definition of the words mean, i do believe the perceptions of the people of ossetia have some validity. however you may want to inform them as to the definition of their autonomy. perhaps pointing out their place in the dictionary would clarify to them the boundaries of their cultural identity. obviously its another example of people just coming up with a meaning without it being recognized by the appropriate experts.

Urm… No because…..We have a queen lol

doesn’t really matter .. spirit and practice has precedence. (obviously) – anything on paper is there to provide welfare employment for desk jockeys and has no real significance.

Maybe the first time it was said the person was going to say “Oh shit”, but he saw kids were arond and he/she covered it up by saying “Ouch” :lol:

buzz – Russia was asked to intervene by whom? One part of Georgia against another part of Georgia? S. Ossetia is not a separate country, and is part of Georgia. It’s like some people in Montana asking Canada to intervene in a dispute with the United States.

Perceptions of the people in S. Ossetia have some validity, but nobody voted on it. Russia handed out passports like candy to people in S. Ossetia to manufacture some national interest in protecting its “citizens.’ That doesn’t change the fact that the people were Georgian, and that — just as Germany would have the right to prevent Bavaria from seceding from Germany, Georgia has the right to hold on to its territory.

And, I’m not talking about any dictionary definitions here. S. Ossetia is a part of Georgia just like Vermont is a part of the United States and Copenhagen is a part of Denmark. It’s not about rhetoric. It is not for Russia to decide what goes on in Georgia.

Hi Marina,
I was wondering what is the true meaning of the kuchen. I know when I had taken German classes it meant cake but where I am from it means pie?

How is Obama going to be the Pres. if he doesn’t cheat and lie about it?

Oh wait you use vista right? it kinda sucks in vista…even tough they say it works :???:

Either way, mjjj, how is it any of Russia’s business. It’s not part of Russia, and it’s not a separate country from Georgia no matter how you slice it.

okay, as long as she doesn’t say otherwise, i claim that my explanation is the right one. and no-one can prove me wrong.

Koba Cabana?

roadrunrnch – atheism is a non-prophet organization, but I’d be happy to go get the answer!

Is there a relationship between engine (early spelling “engyne”), gynecology, and gene? All derived from greek (?) meaning woman and all having a sense of “generating.”

Where does the word etymology come from? :razz:

Coca Banana?

ice cream too :mrgreen:

The people of South Ossetia want to be independent of Georgia. Stalin artificially included South Ossetia into Georgia, and they don’t wish to respect Stalin’s decision.

Russia is involved because the people of South Ossetia wish it that way.

That’s all that’s needed.

The people of South Ossetia wish Russia to be involved because they wish to be free of Georgia, have close ties to Russia and need them for protection.

The leader of Georgia (installed by the US against the democratic will of Georgia) wishes to crush the will of the people of South Ossetia.

It looks like the people of South Ossetia are (thankfully) getting their way (after the initial attack on the civilians by Georgia).

The US, of course, insists that Georgia (like the US in Iraq or Afghanistan) should be permitted to massacre as many citizens as it wishes without interference from outside.

Fortunately, in this case, the US is no more than bluster and will be ignored by Russia.

Have you heard the saying “catch 22″??? I would love to know where it came from :-)

Does anyone say “Benjamins” ( $100s ) anymore?

Oh and how about references to gambling lingo:
I know ‘dimes’ are $10,000, but what about ‘nickels’ and ‘quarters’, if there are any. Would ‘quarters’ refer to a quarter million? :???:

And mainly French people have really an awfully pronunciation too !
But they don’t even give a try :neutral:

The most amazing in Marina’s lessons is that she’s able to captivate so much people, even French ones ! She’s one the way to succeed where the French national education failed : get French people interested in the English language :cool: …ok, maybe the language isn’t the only topic here :razz:

Maybe i should keep schtum … this isn’t a current affairs discussion site.

No, Darling it is much simpler, “Scratch my palm”, that’s all.

Forgive me, as a subscriber of less that twenty four hours to gain your attention is such an honor I left out the rest of the story.

And here I am not clear but if you watch the old movies you will hear the term. I don’t know if it came from the Civil War in the South or from the Great depression. The basic understanding is an association or assilmilation, (You decide), You Scratch My Back and I’ll Scratch Yours”. So Scratch my Palm was more important than my back as I am unwashed;(who cares), Hungrey, I care, want something? Help me out. You decide. I am running off. old memories from talking to my Grandfather. He was a wonderful man and also a WOP but from Bohemia and the answer to that is withoutpapers. Not Passports, there were no passports in those days, that came about after WWII.

People used to arrive at Ellis Island and were processed off the ships and if the person had no Immigration Papers thay were WOPS.

Myngrandfather, and don’t repeat this said the damned Italians were to stupid to fill out the paperwork and that’s why they eaerned the name.. I myself am primarily a Hunky, not to be constuid with a HONKY

From Wiki:

Catch-22 is a satirical, historical novel by the American author Joseph Heller, first published in 1961.

There was only one catch and that was Catch-22, which specified that a concern for one’s safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind. Orr was crazy and could be grounded. All he had to do was ask; and as soon as he did, he would no longer be crazy and would have to fly more missions. Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn’t, but if he was sane he had to fly them. If he flew them he was crazy and didn’t have to; but if he didn’t want to he was sane and had to. Yossarian was moved very deeply by the absolute simplicity of this clause of Catch-22 and let out a respectful whistle.
“That’s some catch, that Catch-22,” Yossarian observed.
“It’s the best there is,” Doc Daneeka agreed.

buzzword says civilization failed. I disagree. Government failed. Not the same thing. Georgia murdered over a thousand people in Ossetia, a good reason for Russia to intervene.

hotrocky,

i agree that governments were primarily responsible, but governments are a manifestation of society, civilized society. by the way i checked out your site and some of your other comments. you’ve contributed some good stuff to the discussions. hope to correspond with you further.

rocky, replied to a comment you had made. ended up above this comment. sorry if it went over your head. ha.

heads up, billy. there’s a music fan in our midst. his nick ishotrocky check out his site.

damn, your not billyb!

Thanks :-P

HI melika I thought about your request.. And yes.. Peanut butter and jelly time is on……………………………

Where are all of marinas honours??

I know James.. I woke up at 5am this morning and decided to check my computer as I had a video on the most viewed page and the other one on page 3 and now both are gone! Arrggh! I hate these technical glitches because now I can’t get back to sleep until they fix it!

They are about 50 megs I think.. take about 10 minutes to upload and sometimes as long as 15 minutes to process.. sometimes faster depending on YouTube’s load

Hi Marina, If you didn’t get a screen shot of “Little Mermaid” the most viewed the other day, I have it here. http://i35.tinypic.com/vnimfr.jpg

It was up there for a few hours and then disappeared. I thought it would be up there for 24 hours. I’m confused by You Tube’s selections. IT doesn’t make sense a lot of the time.

Thanks pedantickarl. You have 48 hours to be on that list then you go away. It’s how YouTube creates variety.. because being on that list results in about 25,000 to 50,000 views an hour and if you were allowed to stay there forever you would find that people would stop going to that page, as there would be no change. So to be more accurate… That page should be titled:

“The most viewed videos that have been on the site for less than 48 hours!”

But I think that title would not be as interesting.

Well thats devotion Marina! I wanna be 1st comment this time ! not foxbow lol. Did you get my video request I emailed you?

Thank you Marina for the explanation. Now it makes sense to me.

my nickname is jeepster, lol, cuz i’m obsessed with jeeps, and her nickname koba, comes from wut stalin called himself before he joined the russian revolution

lol wrote that in the wrong video, lol

Marina, I think that:
“The most viewed videos that have been on the site for less than 48 hours!” WOULD actually be a SUPER interesting title :wink:

,,,or at least it would be interesting for those of us that like precision
…or to those of us who like tounge-twisters, meaning those crazy little phrases that are so hard for people to say that it “twists” their tounge. For instance:
–Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers
–How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
There’s so much aliteration and redundancy that most people get lost with those tounge-twisters :!:

Maybe another title that could build redundancy up for the
tounge-twisting crowd would be:
“Due to the sheer volume of videos, we must act as a valve to prevent violence and give voice to the vision of a vanguard of virile & voluptuous videomakers. Hence, we show the very most viewed videos (inevitably varied) in the last 48 hours.” :lol:

bills, mulla…

hi there… :mrgreen: i have a question here with this lesson… i’m mexican… “casa” means house in english.

You said in this lesson that “cassa” in italian & “capsa” in latin means “box”, so “casa” in spanish is a box… right??? :???: is there a relation with “caja” (box in spanish)??? thx & keep the great videos!

Very nice video Leonard. Had never seen it before. Yes, it sure does look like Marina in many ways.

You do know that’s Scarlett Johansson. :razz:

With red highlights.

I haven’t seen that video either, but I can see they do look alike in many ways too, although Marina probably has the height advantage.

Double check your date in “… scratch to mean nothing occurs in 1922″. The use of “to start from scratch” to mean “to start from nothing/no-advantage” actually occurs in late 19th century (OED second ed, 1989):

1867: Athlete for 1866, 9 W. Collett, scratch 1.

1876: Bicycle Jrnl. 18 Aug. 7/1 Mr. Tom Sabin, of the Coventry Bicycle Club, has won, during last week, three races from scratch.

1886 Field 31 July 182/2 In the [lawn tennis] match between Messrs. G. Butler (owes 15) and E. A. Butler (scratch), the odd set again had to be resorted to.

To get back to money: My elaboration on “Scratch Money” is that it has roots in referring to money needed to get a criminal project started (to buy guns, digging/safe-cracking tools, transportation, bribe guards etc.); its use for paper money as distinguished from metallic money might have come about because paper money occurs in larger denominations than metallic money. Again, this elaboration is my take; the OED just indicates: “Money, esp. paper money. slang (orig. U.S.).” and “1914 JACKSON & HELLYER Vocab. Criminal Slang 74 Scratch,..paper currency… ‘He’s got a bundle of scratch’.” As per my take, in the early years of the term “scratch money”, that sentence would be uttered in the context of the speaker telling a person that someone (the “he”) is in a position to fund a criminal project.
