***Homework***

…nah. I’m gonna do a substitute exclamation:

Hwæt! We Gardena in gear-dagum,
þeodcyninga, þrym gefrunon,
hu ða æþelingas ellen fremedon.
– Beowulf: lo and behold, the first piece of “English” literature. :cool:

Anyway, the Hwæt! thingy means something like “Listen up!” :grin:

Mom’s dying. :sad:
She’s 90. :neutral:
Hence word request: I have to move her into [hospice].
Any encouragement is welcome. :smile:

Very nice video by Taylor LeoNard.

Dear Marina,
Another video! You are posting them so swiftly these days! (I like this.) :grin:
To use that phrase, there was a time when US ships carried great rocks to help build the big Fort called Fort McHenry. Well, they found it most efficient if they stored the heaviest rocks in the bottom center of the ship’s cargo hold. The ship had better ballast and was less likely to list if any cargo shifted. Hence, they would say “Lo and behold” when storing the largest rocks on the ship! :mrgreen:

Lo and behold, there is a car stopped in the middle of the road.

I hope they take good care of your mother at the hospice. Be sure to visit often. My mother passed away eight years ago and I still regret that I didn’t take more time off to visit.

:shock:when i see you :shock: you see me :shock:

:grin:

hello beautiful marina ,whats the origin of [WHO DAT],and what does it have to do with the new orleans saints?

Evan, I’m sorry to hear of the final moments with your mom. My prayers are with you and your mom. I encourage you to stay strong and it is at this time that the greatest love can ever be shared. Sometimes, it seems that during the time our loved ones are near, we can never love them enough, and yet, at this hour, it is the greatest gift that you can give to your mom, unconditional, pure love and service.

I spent hours around the clock with my mom when she was in hospice. Even though, I had seen her many times throughout the year, that close interaction with her will be remembered forever as being very special. For me, it was important to have a video memento that was very personal where I recorded hours upon hours of conversations with my mom. Some of my relatives didn’t care about me doing that, until many months later when they saw the video and thanked me for the foresight to connect with my mom in a very special way.

My heart and thoughts go with you and your mom.

hello beautiful marina,whats the origin of the 1980`s mullet hair style,why they call it a mullet?please investigate,i had a mullet hair style in the 1980`s.

[mullet]

Hey, pretty neat Marina, auto-play of the video
on the Home page on this site. Works great.

I hope the best for you and your family…my mother kept singing on and on…before old age gave her the “big ride”—opera and her high school friend—Liberace, known as “Lee” to his friends and “Walter” to family, was born in West Allis, Wisconsin, a Milwaukee suburb, to Frances Zuchowska (August 31, 1892 – November 1, 1980), a Pole, and Salvatore (“Sam”) Liberace (December 9, 1885 – April 1, 1977), an immigrant from Formia, Italy…Bless You…Liberace Born Free Let Me Call You Sweetheart
…the original [mix/master]…its born free until 2 min…

I 2nd that request….In North America, “mullet” by itself usually refers to Mugilidae. In Europe, the word “mullet” is usually qualified, the “grey mullets” being Mugilidae and the “red mullets” or “surmullets” being Mullidae, notably members of the genus Mullus, the red mullets. Outside Europe, the Mullidae are often called “goatfish”. Fish with common names including the word “mullet” may be a member of one family or the other, or even unrelated such as the freshwater white sucker (Catostomus commersonii)…. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mullet

Lo and Behold Сами Красувые Девушка :smile:

So Sorry to hear my own thoughtis are to keep her at home and care for her (not feasable these days? The Amish do IT) I believe she will be happier and when she goes it will be with dignity such places to my mind are no good you would not like the term I refer to them as.
Good Luck I will pray for her

@PK, lo and behold it didn’t work for me. I had to manually start mine. Must have been some new plug in Marina was trying. Good one to know Marina. Did not even figure lo was for look. :smile:

I take that back Karl. The thumb nail on the right that we used to click on to get to the video of the day on this site , now switches us to YT. That’s a great idea as it sends people straight to YT so they can vote, comment and favor. :grin: Smart Marina very smart. *\o/*

3 minutes before my new girfriend restarts*computer*…[Aluminium]…behold I’m lower the hi!…good morning….[chisel] :P

Hi Marina, We make a great couple (in my dreams), could you find the origin of [ Behemoth] ? Thanks, Paul

This may sound weird but how come Americans say [diaper] and the British say [nappy]?

:cool: Lo and behold it’s GROUNDHOG DAY :!: :mrgreen:

Awsome as usual :mrgreen:

I missed the part about the old english style form of focusing attention on something by repeating it, using different words of the same meaning.

I would like to request the phrase, [Bought the farm]. Used to indicate that someone has died.

Lo & Behold! I Love Your Head Band Marina! <3

:mrgreen:

Love the new do! Brunettes are way sexier! What is the origin of the word [spatula], you know, that thing you use to flip burgers or scrape a bowl?

[Kit and Kaboodle] as in the whole kit and kaboodle.
I don’t know how it would be spelled.

If you want a video response you’ll have to come here and make me do a video response. :)

Also:
[Drayman] or [Draymen]. My great grandpa was a Drayman who apparently drove a [Dray]. It’s similar to what couriers are today. I think.

Speaking of …well not ‘old’ English, but archaic English … Double negatives also used to be an acceptable use of language in Early modern English (Shakespeare era and the like). They were used in the same way that modern slang uses double negatives — to emphasize strongly a negative. I just don’t know when it became considered poor English and a sign of ignorance. Similarly, ‘ain’t’ used to be an acceptable contraction of ‘are not.’

Just read ‘The Scarlet Pimpernel.’ Lots of older English terms but recent enough to be accessible to the modern reader.

Lo and behold, when I do an itunes search for ‘zombies,’ the Hot for Words podcast comes up.

I always suspected Mme. Orlova of being Patient Zero…

I couldn’t think of a sentence with “lo and behold” in it when lo and behold, there it was, right in front of me!

Thank you, thank you for ditching the wigs. You look so much better this way.

I love the green top, but is the bra necessary? Same top in the “cosmetics” video, but no bra that time. Can’t you do it again? Please? The “cosmetics” video wasn’t in HD.

Sorry for being such a creep, but I want HD nips dangit!

I saw Marina’s site a few months ago and decided to check it out.
“Lo and behold,” I fell in love with her eyes!
How’s that?

Marina,

Could you explain when and or how the word [gay] got associated with homosexuals?

Here’s a sentence:

Marina was carefully undressing my pants, when all of a sudden she exclaimed, “lo and behold!”

Well, that explains that Marina, but “Fie upon thee!”
What is “Fie!” and why wouldst I wantst to doest its uponst thee?

LOL and Belold ..
can’t be any simplyer ..

Lo and behold animalntaz, think I have an answer for you on how old these lessons are with this one and the previous two. She probably made these last summer say between July and Sept/Oct.

….yeah I know it’s a vague answer

I would like to know the origins of the word [doppleganger].

Well, this is a bit of a reach context – wise, but a true story so here goes: Monday night one of my friends and I were working on my car. In the process I performed a feat of brute strength that impressed even my pal, a retired Marine. I went to bed feeling proud of myself. I awoke the next morning, and, lo and behold, my left shoulder was non-functional. At least not without standing my hair on end from the pain. This saves me a certain amount of styling gel but is hardly worth the trade. Teach, I would ask for the origin of [agony], but I’m already hip to it. Love to Teacher,
xoxodc

Anybody seen Teach in the classroom, lately? She seems to have forgotten about us poor, lonely students in the classroom all by ourselves. :cry:

What headband :?: :razz: :lol:

I am so sorry to hear this Evan. My prayers go out to you and your family. I know it is a tough time now, but strength comes from with in and Family and friends. My mother and I were not to close in her final days. I regret now not making the amends that should have started on my part. So spend as much time with her as you can.

If you’ll look back in her Twitter pics I think you’ll find that thumbnail on this video listed quit a ways back. I guess she had to have a few in reserve so she could do some traveling.

Lo and behold, what happens to her hand :mrgreen:

Shoot that little SOB. He always sees more bad weather. Ground up hog would be good with mashed potatoes and gravy and butter beans. Me thinks he's blind :lol:

My thoughts are with you, Evan. Be at peace, and exercise your bravery as best you can.

I saved the last few phone messages my dying friend sent me so I could still listen to him speak to me after he passed. Karl’s idea is a good one. I found it most comforting to hear my friend’s laughter above anything else.

love that “white horse”song, leonard : )

ok, lol guessing JLo and behold : )

Yes, lol, she is gone so foodfight :mrgreen:

watch out

Sorry my bad, I just checked the pics on Twitter and the thumbnails is not there. I know I have seen it before this video came out. Hmmm Oh Well. :|

Lo and behold at each one of those breastasis. :shock:

Have you been reading my memoirs? Tumblr

Look into her eyes? Oh no! Instead, look low, and behold her luscious boobs!

sorry to hear evan.
enjoy the moments!
love is

Lo and behold a true music lover

Lo and behold I have a phrase request for you. My friends and I have been saying the phrase [cool beans] since the late 80′s and I was surprised to see it in the movie Hotrod. We use it in the context such as “I scored two tickets to Ozfest, wanna go” ,,, “Cool Beans”. I thought it was isolated to only a few people but now I am curious as to where it came from. I can’t wait to see what you find. Could you wear something a little skimpier,,, Cool Beans?

Marina, I have a word request for you. I am irish and was looking up ideas for my first tattoo, and i came across a very intriguing celtic knot, the [triquetra] which i think when i find the right drawing will be my first tattoo. Anyways i’d like to know where it came from, so if you could, help me out! MKTHXBAI!

Hello Marina,
Thank you so much for this great show! I’m a Palestinian and I recently heard the English word [Philistine]. I wonder, is the origins of this word related to our country Palestine or us Palestinians? And what is the story of this word? So, my request is the word [Philistine]. Thank you so much and I wish you all the happiness and success in the world. Peace & Love <3

I was down the spaghetti sauce isle, when lo and behold there was Marina looking at some pasta! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVGb7JU4TSU

The [machete] is just a big knife. What makes it so special that it gets its own name?

They aren’t really words, but I would like to know about punctuation. Things like [ . ], [ ? ], [ , ], [ ; ], etc. I’ve noticed that a lot of different languages use the same punctuation. Even many languages that have entirely different alphabets use the same punctuation. Where do these punctuation symbols come from?

…Hey pat and to the readers, especially “Miss HotForWords”: What came first, bread or [pasta]‘s– origin continues to evoke speculation. While many different cultures ate some sort of noodle-like food, composed mostly of grain, the key characteristics of pasta are durum wheat semolina, with a high gluten content. Furthermore, it is made with a technique that allows the resultant dough to be highly malleable, thus resulting in the many different shapes (i.e., ziti,spaghetti, ravioli) that characterize “pasta.” …the egg made Delicious chicken
:lol: :arrow: :cool:

lo and behold..

it’s not so special; many knives have their own names, else how would everyone distinguish between them?

You silly. :razz:

EVAN: a true man !!! ;-) YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE, BY GOV. JIMMIE DAVIS
—A truly classic song! Written and performed by member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, Gov. Jimmie Davis.
Ranked #14 Song of the Century.
You Are My Sunshine – Johnny Cash & Bob Dylan
…The other night dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
But when I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You’ll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don’t take my sunshine away

I’ll always love you and make you happy,
If you will only say the same.
But if you leave me and love another,
You’ll regret it all some day:

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You’ll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don’t take my sunshine away

You told me once, dear, you really loved me
And no one else could come between.
But not you’ve left me and love another;
You have shattered all of my dreams:

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You’ll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don’t take my sunshine away

In all my dreams, dear, you seem to leave me
When I awake my poor heart pains.
So when you come back and make me happy
I’ll forgive you dear, I’ll take all the blame.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You’ll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don’t take my sunshine away …peace to all the true mothers :smile:

so very sorry, evan. thinking of you. ~hugs~

I am no etymologist, but I am German, and this word comes from the German word “Doppelgänger”. Literally it would mean “double walker”, someone walking around looking like a clone of another person. Hence, someone strikingly similar to another person, without being a twin.
