Can’t believe I watch the whole video :shock:

I guess I got Bob to thank for that.

Dear Bob,
I saw that article on the BBC the other day and also gave it some thought. I would certainly not want to be quick to dismiss Emma Thompson. Her performances are impeccable. Ultimately, I believe that she brushed near a profound matter. But I am not so sure that she has hit it one the head.
Language is a means to communicate. Slang, as a part of language, is also a means to communicate. If the communication is successful, then it is of lesser importance whether it was achieved using slang or not.
However, many people seem to have trouble being clear as to the logical concepts underlying their ideas as well as the consequents of their ideas. It is easier for many to speak common words than to carefully delineate the meaning of those words. Voltaire once said, ‘What is too stupid to be said is sung’ (I didn’t read that in a book. I got that from a tea bag.) A modern equivalent might be, ‘what is too stupid to be said, is slanged’.
Though one can think carefully and express one’s thoughts in slang, those who do not think carefully find slang a useful cover for their inarticulate thoughts.
Yours,
Larry

Like is an actual word

Like, I went to check that @ some slang site and whoa,
it’s like whoa. Have 2 add a whoa to make like an actual slang

That’s so gay

Before getting all half cocked and agro someone needs to get a slang dictionary before they make themselves look so stoopid

…Good to know Bob ain’t {dead} :smile: like a bone or a baby log :???:

Grody to the Max!!
Gorby, bite er.

Bite Miss Moon Zappa or bite Emma Thompson?

A good cure for these types is to put them out to pasture… away from shopping malls!!! that’s for sure!!! :mrgreen: :lol: :shock: :roll:

Well, it’s a welcome relief from cash cab, isn’t it? :razz:

Like, I have a totally super awesome idea…. It’s like:
I am not a philologist; but I do work in the explosives industry and am also a professional pilot (as a friend once put it, it’s like being perpetually 12). Long story as to how that all happened, but it does provide some interesting facts on number phrases. Like:
When an explosives event is in the process of being counted down, typically (but less often these days), the {five is not counted verbally but is recognized instead as a pause}. Ten… Nine… Eight… Seven… Six… /…/ Four… Three… Two… One… Fire. The thought/worry is that the five could be mistaken for Fire and the initiation conducted prematurely.
In aviation, not all numbers are pronounced the same either. English is the universal pilot/controller language. On the airways it’s used worldwide so that everyone can understand everyone else. However, as you may have guessed local dialects and colloquial pronunciation sometimes sound nothing at all like English. To avoid confusion some numbers are pronounced differently. The number three is pronounced as “{tree}” and the number five as “{fife}”.
Also, anything including and above 18,000 feet (in most places) is referred to as a {Flight Level}. So, you’d never have a pilot report 35,000 feet as thirty-five thousand feet. They would report Flight Level Tree Fife Zero so that no matter where they were in the world other pilots and controllers would know they were at 35,000 feet.
Thought I would offer some interesting number facts/phrases for your consideration. I would love to see what other number phrases you know. Keep up the great work. It’s always a welcome treat to see one of your fun and informative clips. … Like, totally a treat… like, definitely… bitchin!

Hello everyone how are you doing? That was a funny video with all the slang words :lol: It’s totally bitchin’ Groddie, Gag me with a spoon, and barf me out Etc.Thank you Bob,and Marina who all is involved in getting a hold of this video! See you all later,and may peace find you,and for sure enjoy yourselves :!: :cool: :smile:

PEACHES EN REGALIA… MISTER FRANK ZAPPA !!!

QUARTER OUNCE GREEN ROSETTE… mmmMUFFIN!!! Great Guitar Solo!!! :cool: :cool: :shock:

it’s like kinda like :mrgreen:

That song was 3:58 too long! Like take me too the Mall and gag me with a spoon!

Frank got the idea for that by listening to Moon talk on the phone to her friends, and recording her for the sound bytes (bites?).

He knew the power of words as well as anyone I can think of, but he also understood the value of punctuation; as demonstrated in the song Stinkfoot from the album ‘Apostrophe’.

Frank also had a great insight into the flim-flam artists who practice their “(pseudo)-answer-to-everything-wrong-with-your-life-voodoo”</a? to get your money and elevate themselves as charismatics (STILL alive and prevalent in Cali!).

Hey Bob great catch and article.

listen to Frank Zappa :razz: he was awsome :smile:

Frank was brilliant. Dweezil is pretty kick ass, too. Zappa Plays Zappa is awesome.

This video would be seriously improved if Frank was on it…

Dear Marina,
I hadn’t seen that video, ever. About two years ago, I said I hoped you would lose your Russian accent and sound just like a “Valley Girl.” Well, I’m glad to notice you lost much of your Russian accent but you don’t sound at all like a “Valley Girl.” I enjoy your Russian language lessons because you speak both English and Russian clearly and distinctly, which makes it easier for us to learn Russian. :mrgreen:
The use of a “filler” words, such as “like”, “er”, “ah” and others is very common in English. I’m going to teach a class in San Jose this January, and I will use “filler” words to help me think clearly. But I’ve learned to use appropriate words and phrases to help me teach. For instance, “rather”, “on the other hand”, “instead”, “the advantage is”, and many more. :razz: I seldom use ordinary “filler” words, such as “like”, “uh”, or “ahhh.” :evil:
You use great diction and hand gestures in your videos. I think you rehearse and practice a few times before you record, but the results are excellent! :mrgreen:
SeesixCM6

What is the class that you are going to teach? Just curious.

Marina
Dont lose the accent at all! Its dope, like dun become like valley or anyting else! Yo sound like like what u r … Russian ..Sorry thought I would join in the crazy talk! Be proud of your heritage and accent! Accent is never too much of a barrier but slang is!The problem with ‘teen slang’ is that it often gets to be the norm.
Emma Thompson is correct, in what she says, but maybe she could have been a little more politically correct in the way she said it. Everyone needs to understand that her audience for the remark was in England where there is a dislike of the use of slang words in any way, except the cute Cockney way. Take a look in a dictionary to see what the word LIKE means.

Hostagepigs comment is great! I remember an Indonesian captain requesting permission to come ashore in China (restricted access). The shore base via radio link asked certain questions such as who is to come ashore. In answer he said “me and my wife” .. “OK” the shore base replied please give your ages: after a short break the captain said I am forty and my wife is dirty!! :-) (work it out)

“Hi boys and girls I’m Jimmy Carl Black and I’m the Indian of the group! heh heh heh” :razz:

Hier ist also die Russin, Marina Orlova… :smile:

There is no other word in the English language – it’s one of the words that they borrowed and used especially in Psychology but is also used in our daily life here in the USA.

Please forgive me there are several spelling errors: for example the Community for “Conscious” Living.

Ps. I said to Evan I like the way “Valley Girls” talk.

Hey Evan, :smile:

Thank you for posting those links from Heide.

The Dub Room Special

Um like, a totally bitchin’ quote!:

“Communism doesn’t work because people like to own stuff.”
~Frank Zappa~ (1940 – 1993) ;-)

I agree with the language experts’ opinion from that article.
….Emma’s like, so serious. She needs to take a bong hit, like totally fer shur. :mrgreen:

I agree with you, Larry. When I hear that kind of language my reaction is that the speaker is unable to string together any kind of coherent thought.

You correctly make the point that language is a means to communicate, and then say that it is of lesser importance whether it was achieved using slang or not, however, I believe that a lot of slang and filler words actually hinder comprehension of the speaker’s message, as shown in one of the more intelligent comments on the BBC site:-

Comparing “like” to “um” and “ah” as a filler/thought pause is okay, but there’s one major difference. The listener can easily filter out the “um” and “ah” because they have no meaning. But “like” does, so the listener has to process “like” in the sentence’s context to determine if it’s relevant or not. This hinders comprehension because it has to be done before the full sentence is known. “I smell like a rat” means what? I stink, or I suspect a double-cross? Compare that with “I smell um a rat”. No double meaning there.

Colin S, Massachusetts

I find, in situations where there is an excessive use of filler words, my brain tunes out the message and starts counting the number of times the filler word is used; I remember a TV interview with an english footballer where he used the word “obviously” 34 times in one sentence, making what he was trying to say anything but obvious.

Many people use filler words to enable their brains to catch up with their mouths, but as a student pilot, and even before, as a grammar schoolboy, I had it drummed into me to “Engage brain before operating mouth”. That is probably why I find such “modern usage” so … irritating, however, not as irritating as that too ubiquitous filler word, the F word, which whilst a perfectly legitimate word in the correct context, should NEVER be used as a fucking adjective … oops!

Ah, the joy of watching leotard-wearing women dance … so 1980′s.

I like totally love Emma Thompson! She’s so pretty she could like, be an actress!

Oh come now, Bob, the problem is not that “fucking” is used as an adjective, it’s MIS-used as an adjective. ;-)

For many if not most of us, fucking is life’s greatest joy. Hence “fucking marvelous” is correct usage; :grin: “a fucking disaster” is incorrect, a mere mis-use of the word as a filler or inappropriate expletive. :x

On second thought, fucking CAN be a disaster, so maybe there are times when “fucking disaster” IS appropriate. :o

“Fucking disaster”? … I wooden know! :razz:

I totally ADD to your comment. :grin:

If a woman changes her leotard, does she become retarded? :???:

Multiple meaning words spread throughout the English language reeking havoc on the substance of sentences.

Homographs, or words that are spelled the same but have different meanings, may or may not have different pronunciations, which adds even more madness to the mayhem.

I was listening to Zappa through my older cousins around ’70. Frank did a couple of beach type surf songs, too. It’s like, oh my god, when I found these I flipped. They are early works that he played or produced on. Number 1 Number 2 Number 3 And one of my current favorites: Number 4 There are more that I have on CD, but like, I just can’t find them on the net. I never cared for “Valley Girl” but I did like “Lucille” and “St. Alphonso’s” and, oh my gawd, “The Central Scrutinizer”, etc.,etc., etc. I saw him live in 1980 and I still have his poster hanging on the ceiling of my attic. :mrgreen:

Hello Evan how are you doing today? I thank you so very much for posting the link about Klaus, from Heide! Very Heart felt, and such a beautiful way to express your feelings, toward a very loved friend, and a very much missed here @ hot for words! Thank you so much @nettehexe for sharing your thoughts on Klaus! You take care, and have a wonderful day! Peace!

Hello, bertrandr1872,
I’m teaching a refresher class on State Contract law for purchasing managers. It’s a dull subject, so the jokes I tell have to be good. Do you have any good jokes? :mrgreen:
SeesixCM6

Dear Seesixcm6, I have some very obscure jokes, but not in State Contract Law. I have one joke in the history of science that I have been able to successfully share with only three people in about a quarter century without having to explain it. It’s not a bad joke IF ! you happen to have the background. In lieu of a joke, how about if I pass on some research I heard about second hand. A bunch of years back some social scientists tried an experienment with Harvard medical students being used unwittingly as subjects. The students were given two guest lecturers. One was a noted expert in his field who happened to have a dry delivery style. The second was a stand up comedian with no medical background who impersonated a medical expert. The students were later asked to rate the two lecturers. The second one was rated as more knowledgable and as a better teacher than the expert. It is a sad truth that most people have trouble differentiating what is said from how it is said. From my experience in teaching, it helps if your students feel that you are speaking to them rather than at them. The more they feel that you are just talking to them, the more they will listen and think about what you have to say. I suspect that Marina could expand on these points far better than I could. I suspect that is one of the biggest roots of her success. In addition, you might also consider teaching the class in a bikini. Whether you are male or female, there is a good chance that your students will at least notice and not fall asleep. Yours, Larry AKA BertrandR1872

Frank did his album “Cruisin’ with Reuben and the Jets”in ’68. He slowed it down from the usual stacatto frenzy with songs likeCheap Thrills :mrgreen:

Get that poster out of the attic and hang it over the toilet where it belongs! :grin:

I think my political views may be opposite yours, but I just can’t get mad at you with that avatar. :mrgreen:

I don’t have political views. I make lifestyle choices.

Either you want to be happy, or you don’t.

This is the way the USA got started by our forefathers.
Live and let live – don’t nanny nank and try to control everybody into submission.

Free enterprise allows you to make your life a happy place. The harder you want to work to succeed ought not be impeded upon by a totalitarian regime state government.
Otherwise, what’s your motivation to be a success?

People immigrate to America to find opportunity that doesn’t exist in other countries. Some do so illegally; that’s how desperate they are to be successful.

Liberal ‘share-the-wealth’ and other whacko ideology doesn’t ever work, and destroys the opportunities every citizen should have under the laws set forth by our forefathers.

If you are not a moral person, you cannot enjoy success.

I can keep going, but these are things you will learn if you mature as you age. :mrgreen:

What lifestyle choices do you make; and more importantly, do they make you a happy person? :grin:

Why Yes, yes it is :smile:

All my years in California and I never met a Valley Girl :shock:

The lesson about the word Rossiya triggered in my mind a strange association with railway journeys. “Rossiya” is the name of the most luxurious train going from Moscow to Vladivostok along the Trans-Siberian Line.

Russian people like long railway journeys. A few days ago they started a new connection: from Moscow to Nice. It was such a sensation in Europe, because such long train routes aren’t common here now since availability of air transport.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-11400917
Russia has launched a rail service from Moscow to Nice, in an echo of the days of the tsars, when its nobility holidayed on the French Riviera.

Nice became an established resort for Russian high society after the Russian imperial family built a holiday home there in 1856, AFP notes

They even plan to run a direct train from Moscow to London through the Eurotunnel!

Very nice! (pardon my pun) :mrgreen:

I like train rides. I always end up meeting exotic women.

I met a French girl by name of Collette Alice Vertex on an AmTrak ride going from West Palm Beach, Fl to New Jersey. She is now a very fond memory from when I was 19 :cool:
I still have her picture!

WOW! I Googled to get you some copy on this one, and the Internet fell on it’s ass! :shock:

My Grandmother was a ‘flapper’ girl in those days and told me about the origin of “22 Skidoo”.

The original phrase “22 Skidoo” was a slogan from the New Year celebration of 1922-23. It was the way of saying good riddance to 1922 which had many horrible news events.

Sources online say nothing of this and it’s use has been usurped to mean other things! Check for yourself and you will find a lot of inconsistent information out there regarding the origin and meaning.

I believe you have a very good candidate here for Marina to investigate. :grin:

Dear hotforwords,

Can you please tell me the origin of the word sine?

{sine}
I’m sure Marina can come up with a creative angle on this word. :mrgreen:

Dear Marina,
Here is a word request: [knife}
You used a knife in your “Russian Assassin” video, you know.
You might also explain why we have a silent “k” in knife.
Did Knights and knaves use their knuckles to knock on doors?
Do you know if Knight and night had the same pronunciation, as they now do?
Does it go back to King Canute?
Your knees are very beautiful, you know.
Well, I must knead some dough and let it rise before I can bake bread. :razz:

Dear seesixcm6,
I hope this finds you well. Marina has done such a video. Here it is: http://www.hotforwords.com/2008/08/07/silent-k/. Marina has built up quite a collection.

Well put, Doug.

Ah, late for class, as usual. Been a busy fella. I don’t have a problem with slang; matter of fact one of my studies is regional dialect. The San Fernando Valley took credit/blame for some words that were rehashed by them, though. “Like,” which I’m, like, guilty of using at times myself, actually goes back to the Beatnik era of the mid 50′s to early 60′s. “Cool” “Barf” and “Man” from then, also. “Bitchin” is 60′s Hippiespeak. “Grody” [sic] somehow got misspelled from “grotty” in 60′s Brit slang for “grotesque” on its way to SFV. “Gag me with a spoon,” however, is the Valley’s own. And they can keep that one

We live in a weird political climate. :roll:
So much buzz and so little substance…
Democrats and Republicans are both letting the country down by their failed leadership.
The Tea Party is a good idea conceptually, but is being taken over by ambitious self promoters.
Hopefully, the GOP will get back to a mode of thinking not seen since Ron Reagan and get the country back to work (so we can pay off what we owe BEFORE China owns us).
It may already be too late – I dunno…
We sure can’t do that with a Congress unable to pass a budget.
I could go on, but it would just make me unhappy :mrgreen:

Hi Marina. Long time fan, first time caller. I’m an undergraduate anthropologist who recently discovered my passion for advancing the theory of memetics by spreading awareness of what memes are. About a week ago I launched my blog, It’s All In The Memes @ schmemes.tumblr.com
Could you do a video explaining the origins of genes, memes, and temes(Susan Blackmore’s “technological memes”) and let me embed it on my blog?
Also, if you are busy and need me to do some research for you, you know how to contact me. ;)

Or obviously if not all 3, just memes?

Dear Matthew Garvin,
I hope you are well. Inspired by your previous post, I spent a moment learning something about memes. I am very interested in learning more. From the little that I saw, there is some connection between memes and my current research. A short time ago I finished reading the 12 volume edition of Frazer’s Golden Bough. The context of my research in Frazer is to be able to understand the beginnnigs of human thought and to be able to understand the progression from its beginnings to the ancient Greeks. The path of the evolution of human thought from the ancient Greeks to modern times is far better understood. The larger context is a work that I am engaged in on a structural history of psychology.
I have tended to focus a little more on some of the older works in anthropology as many of the more modern ones don’t seem to discuss this issue of the evolution of thought. Perhaps I just haven’t found the right works or perhaps they do discuss it, but in a manner that I don’t readily recognize. I suspect that many anthropologists are uncomfortable discussing such matters as they feel that it is an unscientific imposition of their own personal values to label one group of people lower and another group higher in the evoloution of thought.
With the discussion of memes, discussion of the evolution of thought can proceed. While I can acknowledge with the detractors that the conccept of a meme needs a lot of work, I feel that it is better to proceed with a concept that needs further clarification than to not even attempt to deal with the issues.
As I am not an anthropologist, but I do find myself having to master a certain amount of anthropology, I would be greatful for any comments you may have.
Yours,
Larry

I always find like is followed by something untrue

“he was like go fuck your mum and I was like why would I want to fuck my mum when I get plenty of good sex off of yours?”

If you were then to say “What did they say to that” the response would be, well I didn’t actually say that”

It’s like, when I met Marina I was like “let me touch your boobs” and she was like “James, I want to have sex with you”

None of the above is true..

Like insert mundane crap and talk bullshit all day.

I wish I had been born in one of the English-speaking countries.

I’m totally in love with this language but for a person who isn’t a native speaker of English the whole life may be too short to master the language at the native-like level. Despite of not so hard principles of grammar, the amount of semantic information in the English language is the same as in several less complex languages together.

I LOOOVE the English language too. It was almost like one day a bunch of languages decided to have an orgy and then somebody gave birth to this wonderfully strange love child. It’s got it’s complicated parts but so do most languages.

I loved your entrance about the Russian train. And I watched it on youtube I would have loved to be on this Maiden Voyage from Moscow to Nice.

What a dream! When I am in my home country I use the trains all the time- recently in June of 2010.

And at this moment I can hear a train (even though it is only a freight train) rumbling through Corona, Cal. And even that gives me a thrill!

Wonderful story, Cha Cha….! Nowadays I make friends “for life” on the long airplane trips going home!

That story was from my impetuous youth. :mrgreen:
That was my first ride on a train.
In Germany, grabbing a wurst and brotchen, and riding the train was very common place, until I got my car.

:smile: It’zs just like, follow ur thoughts and it’s like u know, like, it’s cool to speak like this, uh!!! AHAHAHAHAH :twisted: :smile:

That’s interesting. I actually had no idea what it meant. I do know they need to bring back that whole “flapper” look though. :twisted:
