Jump

Jump around!  I thought it would be funny to do this word.  I think Jump Radio in Germany will put it on their website :-)

Please rate and comment over at YouTube to help it be seen! Thanks! :-)

    Marina, for some reason the videos won’t play. I’ve been using my iPod touch because my computer is too slow to view videos properly. Is there some way you can get the videos to run on wifi devices?

    Wow.. moving background in low res.. makes the whole video look HORRIBLE in low res! When HD comes online it will look much better!

    On the website. When I visit the website on my iPod touch, there’s a picture of a play button with a strike through it and in the bottom right it says YouTube. It used to be just videos that would show up. And, again, I can’t watch videos properly on my computer. :cry:

    It’s o.k., Dear Teach. I was wondering why the subpar quality after the latest lessons you’ve shot. So, see, you taught me something else I didn’t know, in addition to the lesson itself! It was still neat – I liked how you made the shadows move across as well as the clouds. Thanks, Marina.

    Always.

    Speaking of onomatopoeia, is it true that a lot of those words come from Anglo-Saxon?

    Hi wordlover,
    I’m on my iPhone away from home in a remote location w/o WiFi.
    I also see the video above with a line thru it, but I will be able
    to see it in about 2 hrs via Att 3G.

    If you are at home with a fast connection, then you should be
    able to connect to you Dsl router using WiFi, presuming you
    have a wireless router. If you are near Starbucks or Carl’s Jr
    they have WiFi and you should be able to connect.

  • stigmatasaurus

    I meant to put that link in #8 above, but somehow didn’t go. Can’t seem to find a good one with Roth.

  • http://twitter.com/Strabismus wordlover

    Thanks. It’s not the connection. I’m at home and we have VERY fast Internet. I’m not really certain if when Marina got a new computer some of her software might’ve changed the formatting of her videos. Although, technically ALL videos at YouTube should work on Apple WiFis (iPhone, iPod Touch). So, I don’t know what the problem could be… :???:

  • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gRtq2-gziI buzzword

    yeah dude, great minds think alike. i looked for a quality roth version as well, couldn’t find it either.

  • seesixcm6

    Dear Marina,
    It’s great to watch you jump because you’re so happy when you do it. I agree it’s not onamatopoetic, because there is no noise when I jump. The noise happens when my feet land on the floor and thats a “plop” noise. :neutral:
    But “kiss” is indeed onamatopoetic. If I kiss you enough times, I know we can make the right sounds! I’ll keep trying until we succeed! :razz:

    Thank you for your posts on Twitter that show your wonderful weekend. You were so beautiful in that summer dress and in your bikini by the pool, and you were with beautiful people like Bai Ling the actress. You sipped ice cold drinks and enjoyed a nice dinner with king crab legs shipped from Alaska, and fresh oysters on the half shell, over crushed ice. Your ride was a big Bentley luxury car, and you capped the evening by going to the new movie, “State of Play.” You looked great! :grin:

    Obviously, I can’t keep up with your ‘Joneses.” My Chevrolet Aveo economy would be out-of-place in your fancy locations. So I’m just happy to watch you enjoy the good life. All I can offer you is my deep, profound love, but in contrast to that Beatles song, “What good is love, anyway? Will it buy you money?”
    :razz:

  • hs4mm

    Jumping on a trampoline would be accompanied by sounds of the springs flexing; but the sound would be … boink-boink-boink? Likewise for jumping on a bed with, perhaps weak, spring mattresses … or being otherwise active on such a bed! But it would not be good to refer to all such activities onomatopoetically as “boinking”!

  • freebird

    Dump the gump and jump the lump with your mump, then pump your rump with a sump wump. :grin: or whatever?!!

  • http://www.youtube.com/xxstokjrj1xx John

    I’ve noticed after a couple hours it usually gets to be better quailty, Whats up with that?

  • errin

    Well, that’s odd. I just watched the video, then logged in to comment, only to find that when I returned to the lesson, the comment section wasn’t loading up. Maybe Ms. Marina is still fumfering with this lesson’s page here or something.

    Anyway, that seemed to be a very short and sweet lesson. Was it tailored so to be a lesson and a hotforwords promo tied into one? Our trusty teacher sure seemed jumpy! All she was missing was a jumpsuit… tho her choice of dress was much better for jumping around in! I don’t think a jump sounds like ‘jump’, but I think visually it fits. The physical action of jumping is almost onomatopoeitic, just not in an aural way. Does that make sense?

    Speaking of jumping, I’m about to jump across the pond and into the fire of Manchester UK. I finally finished recording a lo fi limited edition version of my album, deliberately crude and stripped down as it is. I know I’ve had a fellow classmate or two inquire as to my progress along the way, and expressed an interest in hearing it. I put 10 songs up (out of 17) on my myspace page (10 is the max I could put). To those who were curious to give a listen (sorry I’ve forgotten who), here is the link: http://www.myspace.com/errinfamilia

    Peace, Errin : )

    This is a very good lesson on the meaning of onomatopoetic origins of words for concepts.

    dude, digging your shit right now. some good stuff. how long have you been at this?

  • errin

    Thank you, buzzword. Glad you liked what you’ve heard.
    I’ve been ‘at this’ for about a decade plus now, but the vast majority of that time has been behind the scenes as a recording engineer, learning the singer/songwriter thing along the way. I’m kind of a late bloomer as well as a perfectionist, so it’s taken a little time for me to come out of the shadows.

    :smile: I watched HFW “jump” video went outside and jumped around, lol, then I finished up on a story I was writing. Okay, so a few errors in the story but I will polish it up and I suppose it turned out alright. I got to do a re-read and check it again, yargh…

  • pandion

    another great video.

    I never knew that “kiss” was onomatopoeic. To me the background was more reminiscent of Toys (Bad move from 1992). Regardless, this was another a great video.
    Thank you for all you do Marina.

    what about the word [bastard]

  • http://hippyshemphouse.com jlaytonjr1

    Hello Beautiful Marina. You’re absolutely right; Intelligence is sexy, and you are very intelligent! I just watched the “O’Reilly Factor Show – My Beef!” and I can’t believe some of the things the rude people say about you. It makes me sad. I’m glad that you’ve developed a thick skin. These people are actually just jealous of your beauty and success. Your accent just adds to your sexiness!
    I have two questions for you, Marina. The first question I saw on your HotForWords.com page twitter widget. It asked, “Do you sleep in pajamas or in the buff?” I would love to know the answer to that one! The second question falls right in line with the first. I would like to know the origin of the word [pervert]. Seeing as how I am one, I figured I should know where it comes from.
    Thank you so much for being you and doing what you do. I love it! Keep up the awesome work!!!! <3

    Well there’s that ad, on the right, to that Civony game I was talking about. I thought they’ve gotten around to fixing all the bugs in that game. But instead they changed the city view graphics to something dull and boring, and it seems the new feature has added more bugs to the game. You currently can’t earn any medals after winning attacks, and the constant lagging and log in problems still continue.
    I managed to rank at Major Baron, with 3 cities and almost 60K prestige. I’m about 12 hours away from being promoted to Colonel Viscount, once my Town Hall upgrade is completed. I’m somewhat hooked on this game, even though it seems to be a complete waste of life.

    Marina, do a few segments on the words that make pre-teens giggle. That would be great content for you.

    I think it takes a few hours for my videos to be able to play on the iPhone. YouTube makes an mpeg version of the videos after a few hour I think. Or maybe it happens when the HD version becomes available. Not sure.

    Actually it looks like it takes 24 hours to be able to play in the iPhone? As poindexter plays now.. but this one doesn’t.

    On a side note – I am amazed at how many people access my website from the iPhone! I just love the fact that Verizon poo-pooed the iPhone due to control issues and now they are begging to have Apple switch to them! I read that over half of all new AT&T customers are coming to AT&T because of the iPhone. And Verizon is missing out on all the cell-phone revenue they could have been making.

  • hs4mm

    There was news yesterday that Verizon and Apple are in talks for an iPhone-Lite and for a “smaller-than-kindle-but-bigger-screen” “media-(not books? or not-just-books?)-thingie”. Also, supposedly Verizon will get to the technology that replaces current wireless technology slightly before AT&T.

    I thought of tweeting the link to you, but thought then again that maybe you would have come across it on your own. And also, all this is largely rumor, hardly any official statements, and it feels odd distributing rumor.

    Anyway, given the above disclaimers, here’s one version of the above rumor. And here’s a rumor about Verizon and Microsoft teaming up to beat iPhone with something pink (in their dreams)!

  • CampKohler – Sacramento CA

    Now how could someone outside of AT&T know why the customers chose them? Is the source someone in the company? And do they do a survey as to why customers chose AT&T or is the iPhone claim just assumed if the new subscriber is using the device? Or is Apple just making it all up and putting it out as a PR move? Questions, questions.

    BTW, I heard on the Clark Howard radio show a couple of days ago that he was disgusted with AT&T, because they are limiting access to certain sites to prevent competition. For example, you can’t use Skype, because it would cut into AT&T’s long distance revenue. What will they do next?

  • CampKohler – Sacramento CA

    Good question. I thought the info we got in this lesson was pretty thin.

    It is a thin soup made from the bones of a bird that had starved to death. — A. Lincoln

    Doing a word specifically to increase the chances that some other media might pick it up is a bit tacky, not to mention cheesy, cheap, self-serving, Hollywood and something we would hope is below M’s standards. She should do the work for the work’s sake and not for business reasons. Or is it too much to hope from someone who chose Beverly Hills as an address?

    Word request: [jazz].

    Wikipedia says the origin of the word jazz is unknown, and the main theories derive from sexual slang.

    No etymologist has yet theorized that “Jazz” is derived from exclaiming the minced euphemism “JEEZ!” when confronted with something extraordinary, which was pronounced “Jas!” by African Americans in the American South during the post-Civil War reconstruction era.

    What is documented is that close to the turn of the 20th Century, “jazz” had become a colloquial adjective in the African American community to describe something amazing and exciting, and by 1920 it was used to describe their new type of highly-danceable syncopated music based on the blues.

    If your research finds evidence to prove this theory (which seems logical and obvious although it seems nobody has yet considered it), you’ll have accomplished what many before you have failed.

    Folks,

    I was “reminded” today that in hot weather the painted stripes on the road are VERY slick and can wreak havoc when riding a motorcycle. You don’t really notice it on four wheels. The white lines, such as in crosswalks, are the worst. Do NOT be in a serious lean on them, even at lower speeds. At least this is the way it is all over Texas.

    I swear, PK, I’m really thinking they’re trying to manipulate this thing. As if the voting problems weren’t enough. Imagine how the absence of Marina’s gorgeous photo MUST affect things. And they have to be aware of it. Hell, she’s the first one on the page, obviously.

  • neuroway

    Not sure about knocking this planet out of orbit. But seriously, by looking at the moving background, the wind in the grass, the sunlight and cloud shades, plus a quickly jumping Marina in the foreground, I would assume a video like this one is not that easy at all to produce, there must be lots of extra-work in its making, since this kind of stuff is not something we see all the time on youtube. I think it is very special and very well done actually.

  • beevee14

    Yeah, I knew her once! Very painful relationship :mrgreen: :roll:

  • beevee14

    How is the meaning changing?

  • originalistrick

    Marina, the quality of your vid really wound up beautiful!

  • http://starlon.lyrical.net starlon

    Well, the World Health Organization (WHO) has their own definitions. One is simply: Emergence of a disease new to a population. The current situation, the swine+avian+human flu that’s going around right now, is already a pandemic according to the WHO.

  • beevee14

    I’m not very smart so you have to break it down. how is the meaning CHANGING? :?:

    For the moment I’ll give them the benefit of doubt and will be writing more emails tomorrow morning. The 2007 voting is also broken. I’m keeping at it. :)

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/Jeorney Jeorney

    Neuroway, I get the impression that you assume I am mocking Marina’s video? If so, you are very much mistaken. Marina videos are always humorous, which put me into a playful frame of mind. What I’m imagining, when Marina suggests jumping around is millions of people suddenly jumping in unison.

  • http://starlon.lyrical.net starlon

    I just told you. Sovereignty won’t keep a word from taking on a new meaning. The world will follow what the WHO says in general. They have a pandemic scale. This situation is on that scale and has been since it was fostered in Mexico.

    First you’ll need some really good bait. You have to catch them and they are very good at sensing a trap. They sniff and carefully examine you, and just when you think they are within reach, pffft!, they are walking off with some dumbass dangerous type driving a Lamborgini, leaving you in your Dodge Dart wondering what happened.

    Most of the British metal bands, including the band who some say started it all; Black Sabbath, came out of Birmingham which is kinda like the Pittsburgh of England.

    Hi hs4mm,
    That was from a live event in LA sponsored by PopSugar and CoComment.com
    Here is the link
    That link contains all the info and all the vids.
    I watched some of it live, but if I remember, there were some technical difficulties, bandwidth? and the actual interviews were not seen live.

  • neuroway

    Ay Jeorney. Let me scroll down a bit then.

  • neuroway

    That is perfectly understandable and explainable. You get this impression because you assume that I assume that you are mocking Marina’s video. Let’s call it a second degree equation.. erm.. assumption. :smile:

    I was looking at the video from an aesthetic perspective at the moment I wrote my answer to you.

  • http://www.youtube.com/xxstokjrj1xx John

    These three videos are marked private — how does one get to see them?

  • http://wired.reddit.com/sexygeeks_2008/?s=top pedanticKarl – Click Here to Vote 4 Marina

    Hi hs4mm,
    My presumption is that the same YT channel that is hosting the question vids is also hosting the now privated answer vids, unless Marina was hosting them on her YT channel and she made them private?

    The CoComment YT channel is: kseraforcocomment
    You could send a message to ksera, and ask her to make those three videos public again, or I can do it if you want me to.

    Those are very nice videos and hey should be seen.
    Those videos were created by Marina and the logo in the intro says CoComment, but my presumption is that Marina is or should be the copyright owner of those videos?

    I have those three videos, but I don’t want to get into trouble by making them public. I could host them on my YT channel if Marina says it’s OK, or maybe she can host them on her YT channel or another site? since she probably has the original videos.

  • Capman911

    You must know this joke:

    A couple of newlyweds are undressing on their wedding night. The bride notices that the groom’s toes are gnarled and asks why. The groom replies, “When I was a kid, I had tolio.” She says, “You mean polio?” “No, tolio. It just affects the toes. She looks up further and sees his knees are deformed and asks what happened. He says, “When I was a kid, I had kneesles.” “You mean measles?” “No, kneesles. It just affects the knees.” She looks up further and says, “Don’t tell me… When you were a kid, you had smallcox.”

    It didn’t used to be. They originally started as a serious newspaper, but decided to change their format. Unfortunately, the notice of the change was never published and so many readers like yourself simply did not notice because of the subtile humor involved. For example, many of their readers are absolutely convinced that a Negro was elected president of the United States. You’d think they would catch on to the joke when they published that he was giving billions and billions of dollars of poor black folk’s tax money to rich white people, but, no, they still think it’s for real.

    Toronto in Algonquin means “we charge sales tax just like everybody else.” It was the original convenience store in the Americas, but failed from bad publicity after travelers became ill from eating a bad batch of buffalo jerky. Recently Toronto was a prosperous auto parts manufacturing center, but has now fallen on hard times because they concentrated on making window cranks in an age when even the KIA has electric windows. They, however, are a optimistic lot and are poised for the next wave of success, edible office supplies. An international campaign based on the advertising tag line, “Melts in your mouth, not in your stapler” is due to be launched as soon as the diarama in downtown (featuring a giant desk drawer) is completed.

    Hi Everyone,

    Just wanted to “jump” in here and say thanks to all who sent thoughts and prayers out to us while my daughter was in the hospital this week. I greatly appreciate it. It was a scary time. However, the good news is she was discharged yesterday and is well again! YAY! :mrgreen:

    The jump video was cute Marina. I fail to see the onomatopoeia as well, but I love the sound of the word “onomatopoeia.” It always makes me smile. :smile: I won’t be doing any jumping around this weekend though — I am exhausted. :p Here’s a video of us jumping in the pool though. Consider it our jump for joy! Have a great weekend!

    Misc:

    1) I haven’t heard back from kseraforcocomment yet, and I guess you haven’t either.

    2) About 30 minutes after making Comment Fetish/176.1 (“New video is coming shortly.. in minutes…”), Marina made the comment Fetish/184.1 (“This is today’s upload.”). So were there two versions of the Fetish video? Where can I see the original version?

    Going over the comments in Fetish makes things even more confusing:

            (a) it appears that the original title was Fetish, and that this title was changed (123.4) — but the title today — on HFW site and on YouTube — is Fetish! What were all the titles used for this lesson (nothing in comment block 123 says what the new title was!)?

            (b) The comments indicate that google would not display ads next to a video with the title Fetish, but the title today is Fetish and there are ads!

    When I write a comment, I usually try to make sure the comment will make sense at some future date as well — but there has been at least one occasions in which I wrote a comment that would not make sense at a future time.

    Hello hs4mm,
    Marina’s comments at 176.1 and 184.1 have to be taken in the context of dates. Let me explain.

    Perhaps you are not familiar with how and when Marina uploads videos? When Marina uploads a video, it gains views very quickly, where in a few hours when the video gets into the 15K to 37K range (not a fixed number; it’s relative), it lands on the Most Viewed board. The window of opportunity to reach the cherished page #1 is 48 hours, after which the video is pulled off of the board.

    To keep the the videos in the queue, so to speak, Marina uploads a new video when the current video is at position 21-25 (page 2), which typically is a span of two days, but could be as early as one day, depending on the rate of change of the views. So, by the time the current video reaches page #1, the new video will have just started to reach views momentum to get on to the board. When the current video’s 48 hours are up, it gets removed off of the Most Viewed board, but the new video is now on the board. The queue is always filled. :)

    Now, look at Marina’s comments. Notice that both of her comments where made on Oct 21 and Oct 22 which is at least two days (48 hours) after the Fetish video was published, which was Oct 19.

    So, Marina’s comment at 176.1 refers to the new video after Fetish which is the “Rain Check” video published Oct 21. Her comment on Oct 22 is also about the Rain Check video. Notice Bob’s cute reply.

    As far as I know, there were not two versions of the Fetish video. It’s possible that Marina may have had to do a re-upload due to a YT glitch on the first upload. In either case, the dates will clue you in on the context.

    Hi hs4mm,
    Regarding title changes, as you may know, the YT title differs from the HFW site title in many cases as a matter of course. I don’t recall what the alternate title was for Fetish back then.

    Regarding the Ads. There are two issues.
    One issue is the Ads on the HFW site.
    The other is the Ads on the YT site.

    What’s going on with that?
    Quick answer: YT / Google is screwed up. FUBAR.

    OK, some quick details:
    When Marina published the “Dick short for Richard and detective” video, the level of heightened awareness for Marina possibly getting ripped off for Ads not showing intensified. Marina’s first level of suspicion was that it might have to do with the title, in other words “Dick…”.

    Believe it or not, but I looked at all 300+ videos and documented in detail the state of the Ads. Marina has seen some of my documentation.

    Obviously, in this short comment, I can’t go into all of the details, suffice is to say that Google/YT is FUBAR.

    Let me say this, it is not necessarily the title. There are very innocent titles where Ads do not show, and other YT videos with very nasty titles where ADs do show. If you know how to read the web pages source code, it hints at some probable issues.

    Here are some quick non-rigorous tests I did
    in the last hour. Browser type did not matter.

    The Fetish video on YT:
    Initial Fetish Viewing: NO AD and NO AD SPACE
    Refresh later 10 min: AD SPACE IS WHITE – NO AD.
    Refresh later 10 min: NO AD, but AD SPACE IS THERE.
    Refresh later 10 min: AD IS THERE (Axe)

    Fetish video on HFW:
    Big square AD SPACE is BLACK – NO AD
    Vertical narrow AD SPACE IS WHITE – NO AD

    Dick video on YT
    WHITE AD SPACE – NO AD

    Dick short for Richard and detective on HFW
    SQUARE AD does show an AD (aeria games)
    Narrow vertical AD WHITE – NO AD

    Anyway, there is a ton of stuff I documented
    and to get it fixed requires YT / Google focus and attention.

    Hi hs4mm,

    Regarding kseraforcocomment:
    My guess is that either she no longer works there or no action on emails are taken, or will take some time.
    The last login to the YT account was 7 months ago, but that doesn’t mean that they aren’t getting the emails. My guess is that they are heavily understaffed.

    I’ll send a direct email to CoComment in two days as I have an account with them and I know some of the people there, who might still work there.

    How nice. I’m glad to hear you’ve enjoyed my music so much, Marina. It’s cool to win over a music fan that admits to being a tough critic, especially one as intelligent as yourself. I like that you enjoyed the deliberate rawness of my recordings. I will eventually do a more polished, hi fi album at some point with a backup band, but will always keep it minimal, with some songs remaining just vocal and guitar, and others having bass, drums, and occasional organ added on. Thanks for the input, and I too am not a fan of overproduction, so no worries about me ever producing the life out of my songs and my sound… I’ve been around the L.A. studio scene long enough to know a thing or two about production, as would the people I would work with when it comes to producing my recordings. I totally see eye to eye with you on that call, teach!

    Well, I just got back from a week in England, so I guess I have a few lessons to catch up on. Peace, Errin : )
