Aren’t we all glad we are getting a “headbanger” of an education….lol
I rate this video with five kisses, keep up the great informative teachings for all - I like it a lot.
riverrat512 out.
As your commanding officer, I think you should let us see your sister!!!
Carry on now!!!
Interesting.
Can any of you tell me how to get a picture into my profile? you know, the icon by your name?
Jeff, go here and sign up/register.
Thanks for that. Don’t I look handsome in my new fur coat ?
Charming!
Marina, I have a word request as a result of all this loo talk; Where does the expression “tootle loo” meaning “so long”, “see you later” come from?
I have my own theory, but what does the expert say?
1) Us pesky Brits stole it from France (loanword) tout à l’heure. It is pronounced toodle loo in UK Bob where are you from.
2) It means in England that I need to bugger off quick because I ate and drank too much
3) An Englishman’s desire to find the home of the Mona Lisa
Any of you wise guys got any other ideas ?
Is it number 3…?
What to the Louvre ?
Close
It’s not #3, for sure; that’s Skip to the Loo
Skip to the Louvre?
There’s been a whole heap of fuss in the British media about ‘regrading’ cannabis/mariuana. It makes me wonder - where do words like ’spliff’ and ‘reefer’ come from?
Hello Hot for Words Teacher Marina,
Back in Nam, say 1969, June… daybreak… sun climbing up over the horizon… trenches are quiet… soldier whispers to his partner… “this opium is great man! I had a science-fiction dream last night where this hot teacher in the next century was talkin’ bout WORDS back home and everybody’s happy and stuff. It was too much!”
His partner never replied because he had the…
THOUSAND YARD STARE!
Was this guy dead? (or) Was this guy alive but stuck in a zone known only to himself (shellshock)? (or) was this guy just paying attention to enemy movements over yonder…. say 3000 feet? hmmm?
Would you please investigate?
What is the etymolgy of the word GULLIBLE
Why is it not in the Oxford English Dictionary ?
Wow.. Thats interesting.
It’s in mine.
Page 903 of Volume 1.
It means, “capable of being Gulled” which, here in Aberdeen, is being poo-ed on from a great height by a seagull.
I thought it was publish lies about seagulls……
..publishING, that is…
Touche Mr Longshlong !
Bob, You live in Aberdeen, Wa?
http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=bsMpHHSLSlc Aberdeen Mississippi Blues
No, Skipper, I live in the real one.
Etymology of Aberdeen - Aber=mouth of a river (No Swedish jokes here, please) + Dee=the name of the river at the mouth of which Aberdeen is situated.
BTW, Is there a River Dee in WA? And do you have to go down to the river to wash?
1. Funny way to play the violin.
2. I know Idi Amin always claimed to be Scottish, but why Aberdeen Mississippi Blues?
3. Is Booker White an oxymoron?
Where does the word goosebumps come from?
Marina:
Could you please explain the phrase kick in the nuts? I’m not sure I quite understand it!
Thanks!
Jimmy
CTO ?
In England nuts is slang for testicles. They are called eggs in Russia.
Needless to say that it would be serious setback. to have the misfortune of being kicked in the nuts or eggs
Can I suggest the word ‘computer’?
The first computer was invented in 2600Bc. I was called and still is called an abacus. Technically a manual difference engine the automatic ones changed their name later to computer but when ?
The first automatic working difference engine was built in 1822 (50 years after it was ‘invented by J H Smith’) in my home town Manchester England Britain. I can answer this one without references because i have seen it . It is as big as a house in the Museum of Science and Industry. 2+2 =I’ll come back next week LOL
So the word origins were introduced some time after that by Captain J. F***nose who decided that the appropriate descriptive verb was to compute. So the noun would be a computer.
Compute is a theft (loanword) from the Latin words computus and computare
Hey 2hfwfc
, did you hear about that early mechanical computer some diver discovered? I was wondering if you knew anything about it? Last I heard they where going to use some special xrays to figure out how it worked without destroying it. 
Computer, at one time. was a job title for those who did interest amortization calculations - important to bankers. An amortization is a string of calculations where each subsequent string is dependent upon variable values created during each pass of calculation. Phew!
I did see a snatch piece about the mechanical computer found by divers. It appeared to be configured like an astrolabe but a few added features are yet to be explained.
Hey captain you are such full of witty gems I was waiting for a punchline.
Good job my cha cha loving friend pointed out that you were serious.
Do you still Cha cha melika ?
samba, rumba, i dip you dip we dip she dip!
and of course, cha cha!
Good morning miss!
This is weird - earlier on, the site wasn’t letting me post my replies but now it is! That’s good.
I’m a new student with an insatiable appetite for learning. Thankyou for the opportunity.
Miss, can you tell me where the word ‘gong’ comes from? That big metal thing that the guy used to bang with a mallet before every movie. And Marc Bolan of course, who told us all to get it on, bang a gong. Is ‘gong’ from the far east or is it a simple onomatopoeia?
Please help! - oysterfond.
Oops. That should have read “Please help! - Oysterfrond.”
Spelling your own name wrong - an inauspicious start. Dunce cap for me, then…
Careful with the pointy end!
gang-a-bong, dude.
I am trying to stop laughing at melikadothechacha’s comments.
I have found about 7 meanings to this already, all pretty rude but illhairyarse non the less.
I also do the chacha Melika
Thank-Q! come back for the 12:15 show.
I gets racier after midnite! I took this name
because if I ever get the TA spot, Marina
will say “Me-Lika-Do-The-Cha-Cha” and
THAT would be SOOO cool!
Yeah, but EVERYTHING Marina says is SOOO cool!
Maybe Marina can cover the etymology of the word Fridge.
That would be cool
Would not freezer be more cool ?
I have heard the origin of the S-word ( s - h - i - t) comes from shipping cow manure and the phrase “Ship High In Transit” was placed on the crates. Is this true or just a hoax?
The origin of any other curse words you may know of could be cool, too.
Thanks!
Hoss
hoss6901, PLEASE read this.
That’s crap LOL
Joking apart I never knew that . thanks word lover always delighted to share knowledge with you.
Crap—-Thomas Crapper the London Plumber’s Merchant to make popular (but not invent) the flushing inside lavatory.
The product was caller ‘the crapper’…..hence verb to crap…
I think that OED lets us down here.
Funny and embarrassing thing is I used to educate people that Ship High in Transit was a fact and later discovered my big mistake when I really got into researching nautical origins. I also learned of many things in school that are just untrue. I feel like I was lied to and not taught a thing.
So now I ways say to people somethings you where taught in school are just false. 
School is always right. They explained Father Christmas very well to me.
(or Santa Claus as it is called some places)
ooooh yikes
we have Hamster Claws visit us on Christmas day
I maked a cookie for Hamster Claws but I eated it…
Now you have to investigate Colonel and Sergeant…………..lol
I would like to know the history of the word “loquacious.” How did it come to mean talkative, babbling, etc?
V/R,
Jeenyice
Stop babbling on about loquacious words……….only messing
We don’t do THAT here - LOL!
Hey as far as comments go that one from you measures the least so far on the babbleometer
Marina,
Please apply your vast philology skills on the words “hysterical” and “pronoia”
Cheers,
RP
pronaoi?
pronoia. I think it’s the opposite of paranoia.
That’s awesome. I never heard that before.
Maybe the maestro will some shed some light upon it.
I’ve heard it a couple of times. Not NEARLY as much as “paranoia” though; people must be out to get me!
Good request. Marina and her sister could act it out, with Marina as Pronoia and her sister as Paranoia—since she’s too camera-shy!
Yea WL, I agree this could be a good one for Marina to do a vid on. Can we search for some possible origins of the word so to reduce Marina work load?
Hey if she doesn’t do the word hysterical don’t get too worked up about it.
Well my cage will be well rattled if she doesn’t
Thanks so much Marina, i really appreciate it!
Now i think it’s time to name your sister.
You names sound kind of aquatic (Marina = a place to dock boats
if that’s wrong maybe you should do a lesson on your own name.
It probalby has a different meaning in Russian)
so perhaps your twin should have something aerial.
I don’t know what it should be, Airport doesn’t have the same ring to is as Marina. Think about it.
Ariel as in Little Mermaid I prefer to aerial !
Ariel Tritanovna (daughter of Triton) Rodina
Aрeл Tриtановна PoДина
you’re a genius! I had the answer right in front of me but i needed you to respell it into a girl’s name.
now we jsut have to convice Marina to start calling her twin Ariel.
i can’t read or speak Russian. sorry.
the only words i know are dah, nyet, dosvidenya
and nichevo which after much research i learned means nothing!
But confusious from Taiwan said that to know more is to learn that you know nothing. So you know the Russian for nothing so you must now know it all LOL
The Russian was just the way that Ariel Tritanovna Rodina would be spelt in Russian. buddy.
Boringly enough nothing more I’m afraid.
I prefer Russian characters to our own.garbage.
They have distinct sounds unlike ours
A as in aye
A as in apple
A as in wade
A as in mark
A as in awkward
Need i say more ?
Angelina
There’s only one Angelina: http://www.hecklerspray.com/wp-content/uploads/200 7/03/angelina-jolie-pregnant.jpg
Bizarro-Marina (Aniram).
It’s no use to insist, Proz; it’s Angelina AND I have her phone number.
Now you know why we so seldom see her in the videos - she’s always on the phone.
Request for word: Turbo
Why? because i love how companies marketing their products say: “Turbo-Charged Grass Seeds!” or “Super-Charged Hunting Knife!” when most consumers have no idea what those words mean, but they automatically assume it is better. i’m not asking for you to tell me what turbochaged means, im asking for turbo. where does it come from, and why do all people see the word “turbo” and immediately they think positively-charged!
That’s not really exact such an idea makes me think about when one is shopping for anything you have to face the marketing illusion that one product is greater or you need to buy two instead of just one. I would want to know if you really think that knowing the origin of turbo is going to change our idea of what an illusion is
some times companies or persons have a way of making you feel a certain way when you see their product or ask a question. The scaring feeling you get abut buying the product flip flops turbo around until you just get confused
It always makes me think of something that makes a vehicle go superfast—VROOOM…
I was into videogames bigtime (still am, actually). Go figure.
Fashionable buzzword ?
Like Hyper in the 70s
Mega in the 80s
Injection in the 90s
Turbocharged 00s
Why would I want to buy turbo charged grass seed .
My lawn grows too fast already ?
Oooops i forgot to include the next decades most promising contender word nossed-up the other day as in NO2 Nitrous Oxide Nos !
2010’s Nossed-up !
Pangalacticsuperhypermegaturbocheeseburger!
Take THAT!
melika - that goes good with a pangalactic gargleblaster, except that when you drink one it’s like having your brains smashed out with a slice of lemon wrapped around a large gold brick. It’s the alcoholic equivalent to a mugging.
Uberfast Lieutenant http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fJpnIdDVH0
it could from the word: turbine. its first uses are in turbocharger and turbojet (a jet engine) from the 1930’s and 1940’s. both of these inventions operate using a key mechanical components: turbines.
both the turbocharger and turbojet allow the vehicle (aeroplanes especially fighter aircraft) to go fast(er) which in 1940s was a key performance indicator of how good an aircraft was.
DID YOU KNOW that Turbotrump is NOT the Latin word for Whirlwind ?
Awwww! But I LOVE Turbotrump! I have all their Braille colouring books…
Very clever you two
Thank you my Teacher, I got hungry watching you, or was that the food you were eating.
It wasn’t the food. There was a lady with six kids. Her friend observed that men have the same look in there eyes when they’re hungry as when they’re horny. The lady with the kids said “You mean all I had to do was FEED him??”
This was obviously in one of the BM years (before Marina)
Only six times feeling horny ?
Remember during the Paul is Dead era that feeling everybody would get when listening to and trying to decipher the clues that John left in his songs as to what REALLY happened to Paul?
Me neither…
backwards masking ooh ahhh
“there’s been a terrible accident..”
why does the word “blue” (as in phrase: blue movie) mean pornographic? in contrast to that an area of a city that has prostitutes and has pornographic shops/stripclubs etc. is called red light district.
I agree i would love to hear the answer to this question
Me too.
Me three
Me four.
You for what ?????
Thee for two!
Errrrrrrr… somethin’.
I eight it when the jokes get so sick
We’re all looking for a green light on this one.
Go Go Go!!
And why do they now use all “red lights”
to start a Formual 1 grand prix???
Must be the old way. Nowadays they grid up during a pace lap, under yellow, and take the green flag at race speed. Red is used now to indicate to drivers to come to an immediate stop on the track. We only do that if the track is blocked - rarely.
Well when I’m in my drag racer I run k=like the clappers when I see a red light. I think I am in Amsterdam !
That sounds like the translation of a tongue twister.
Y’know. Here, I’ll make one up:
(original Zerbovian version) Bļkas sķlib bkļašs sķļbis bškals!
(English translation) Twelve dirty turnips bite the bald flashlight.
Now Hotforwords is hogging the reefer
Well we DID pay for it!
Wait a second…
heh-heh-heh, I’m just KIDDING… Yeah, that’s the ticket… 
It was just a joke… I don’t know what’s in this Ziploc, it looks like grass clippings… Why would someone keep grass clippings in a sandwich bag? I mean, what would you do with it? Eh-heh-eh-heh 
… HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA… 
Look at the time! Gotta run…
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZIP
Let’s green-light some blue-sky thinking on this one. Then we’ll all be in the pink!
in the pink?
Or at least in a brown study…
All you yellow bellies are looking through rose-colored glasses, and that makes me see red, dammit! I’ve been a little blue, lately, due to the gray skies. However, the clouds have a silver lining, and all you black-hearted greenhorns will soon be raising a white flag, I’m sure.
I think the blue reference has something to do with regulations or restrictions. “Blue laws” mean you can’t buy alcohol on Sundays. Blue movies are those unavailable to young kids. Both are references to restrictions.
I think you’re begging the question. Why is it blue?
I like the sell me some vegitarian food idea i’ll sell you some tofu and soy sauce. I stopped eating lots of tomatoes and potatoes because of the high cianide content they naturally have.
F sound needs a U sound? what about tenure when people who gain it’s privledge use it against others it makes them say FU. Do you copy Lieutenant
Okay i might not think that’s what your asking the class for but it’s all I could think of It might not be very funny to you though Marina in fact i dont mean that as a threat it’s just confusing
Tomatoes and potatoes have high cianide contents? WTF?
Hey wordlover cianide used to be a bedtime drink in England like Horlicks or Cocoa is today..
like Heroin was cough medicine
Made you feel dead drowsy LOL
I agree
What the f* is this message from “cimska” about?
A vegetarian diet or something?
So much for globalization.
90% of the world do not have f*ing clue what the rest are saying!!
I know you’ve told me not to call you thins before but f*** nose !
One thing I did learn buddy is that just because someone speaks English doesn’t mean that someone else that speaks English can understand. Here in England the regional dialect can be so extreme that I moved 50 miles east to Yorkshire and need an English to Yorkshire phrase book !
Can you explain ‘wentup thill baht bahns’ or ‘put wood in thole’
Cyanide.
Sorry but my magenta yellow black and cyan are all Ok.
Why do you want to hide one of the colours ?
Seriously, does anyone notice…
Hmm… Oops, sorry,
tiger-the-viciousMarina.WAIT!
Uh…
Gosh, I forgot what I was gonna…
Strange…
You don’t have to worry about poisons
in your food giving you drain bamage.
It has already affected how you right.
oops write!
melikadothechacha, you need to do a book of poems—I’d buy a copy!
Maybe when he was trying to converse
Twasn’t really meant to be in verse
But by pure chance each and every line
By coincidence just happened to rhyme
Maybe be he’s a natural poet
And just doesn’t quite yet know it.
Oh for God’s sake give the book to hamster.
Mikela doesn’t need it that much !
I wanna be a cute pet
jajaja. Please Marina, Never lose hope and dreams to become your baby pet 
hEy I sEE yOU fOUnd thE shIft kEy! Fantastic…
CAPTAIN MORGAN, I’LL REALLY PREFER TO WRITE THIS WAY, I DON’T KNOW WHY. I ACOSTUMED TO TURN ON CAPSLOCK WHEN WRITE AND THERE’S SOMETHING I DON’T UNDERSTAND. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM WRITING MAYUSCULAS ??? EVERYBODY TELLS ME ABUT IT
great quote today on wit
You don’t know why and there lies the understanding. May I ask you a question Gio? Why do we have Uppercase and Lowercase letters? What is their purpose?
gio - There are two reasons that come to mind to warrant refraining from “all caps” writing.
1. In the etiquette of email, text, IM and message boards, capitalization of all of the letters of a word STRESSES that word and places emphasis on it. When an entire paragraph or passage is capitalized, IT MAKES PEOPLE THINK YOU ARE RAISING YOUR VOICE.
2. In all writing, not just electronic, style has traditionally dictated that people not write in all upper case. This is because it has been demonstrated that all upper case writing is harder to read than mixed case writing. When people read, especially when they read fast, they read the shape of words. They do not read each individual letter. All caps makes everything roughly the same shape, while mixed case provides more variety and the eye is able to scan the text easier.
The fact that “everybody” tells you about it should make you think twice, since those are the people with whom you are trying to communicate.
I’ll add a third reason that is, I believe, my own contribution to this issue. I think that people should strive to communicate in proper style as much as possible. Use complete sentences. Use proper structure and grammar. Learn good and clear style. That doesn’t mean to be perfect or to waste inordinate amounts of time proofreading. All that means is to get into good habits. A lot of people use all caps to avoid having to write properly.
I knew a German online who never capitalized his nouns! Hmpf!
you know one more now.
pspreop11 so you is wrongst been evr mor now bfur yu sayd it domb yu sai tis tym reeely fucking dombh!
LOL
Chinese are particularly offended when we ’shout’ at them in upper case.
Not only is defiance against authority snubbed by their culture there they don’t understand the need for caps at all.
In fact in Taiwan Confucious said in true Yoda style Annoyance shown argument already lost you have.
It’s like giving a ‘v ‘ sign in the UK.
A philologist equiv would know 47,000 characters average chinaman 3000. I struggle on 230. Can you imagine lower and upper case …special desk sized keyboard.
they don’t really use vocal punctuality either because the word’s ’song’ determines it’s meaning.
I always remember first time I said hello the recipient when he had finished rolling around from laughing he explained to my translator that I had pronounced day as shit so was enquiring about the enjoyment factor of his most recent bowel movement !
And I thought my Russian ex-wife was weird when she refused to speak for a week . I apparently touched her bottom (accidentally) in public.thus branding her a whore.
Different things offend different people but low profile offends no one
So go easy gio, easy on our ears (visually)
@Pros, Thanks for your take on all Caps writing. I try to use complete sentences when I can. I’m very weak in sentences structure, grammar, and spelling. I was deprived from taking writing & English classes. I was able to learn some skills from computer programming of all things. I always try to proof read my comments as much as I have time for. I struggle with trying to get all my thought down on the keyboard as quickly as possible before they seep away from my mind. My most hated subject is writing and English speaking and yet now I am an instructor (masculine for teacher?) and I write a lot in these blogs. Who would have known?
__/)__
LOL on the bowel movement joke. 
@ 2hfwfc, I always try to look at offending talk as someone who doesn’t understand how their communication or actions effect me. For maybe they really don’t know. When people poke fun at me I get very offended, but knowledge of that they are only having fun, I don’t want to be the party pooper and I try to turn it around and make it fun for me. I sometimes try to be the class clown. Its embarrassing but we need more happy and funny things in our lives so we can die with a smile on our faces.
Hey I thought you were hilarious as always captainjack my learned friend.
It was not a dig at you I loved the multicased text and LMAO It was aimed at MR UPPERCASE but replied to you so that it would appear in the right order for all to read. Sorry if you misunderstood my motives buddy !
Love reading your comments.
As far as the English variety of English goes quite frankly there are absolutely no visual signs of your deprivation whatsoever you very modest fellow.
@2hfwfc, Oh no I didn’t mean I was offended by you. I was just making a general comment about how I see things. Yes I see how you placed your comment in right order. I understood your motives clearly.
About my English, Really? I thought my English sucked! I’m always being corrected by my sister. I even had a girlfriend in the Philippines that corrected me. She knew proper English better than I did. I really prefer telepathy with my sister to communicate thoughts. I have a hard time finding words and putting sentences together to describe my thoughts. Thanks 2hfwfc for your complements.
Ok, i got it. They say Uppercase is stressing, well, best to type regularly
Atta boy!
Teacher knows best! What a refreshingly mature and civil discussion. If people conducted themselves outside of cyberspace in the same manner as they do on HotForWords, my workweek would be a great deal more pleasant indeed.
Marina, as an attentive student, I must bring to your attention your sentence structure. To advise gio to “type regularly” is to say that he should type every day or type often. Would it perhaps better convey your thought to say to gio that it is best to “type the regular way.” or “type in the regular fashion.” ?
if gio got the gist of the message then WTF?
Buzz word says WTF ?
I think it is ‘tongue in cheek’ NO the other cheek.
Everyone one just wants to agree with teacher here.
Hardly surprising really with teacher’s pet app still open
Люблю тебя всем сердцем, всей душою мaрина LOL
@ Богдан, I think its because when we type we have to slow down and put our thoughts in order. We can even delete sentences after further refection about how this comment will effect others, how will it be understood, is it a complete thought, etc. People need to just slow down and think before having to open mouth and inserting foot.
In regards to 2hfwfc comments but not directed to his comments (wow what a mouthful), I try not to always agree with teacher. I don’t want to be a “Yes man”. It good not to always agree. Its healthy to have differences and to respect others opinions. If we all agreed one way of doing things then the world would be very boring. We all would have the same color of things, work the same jobs, etc, you get the point.
My former relationships with girlfriends, we always had good debates. Sometimes we where able to change each others thinking by really looking at the other persons view. Relationships always lasted longer than when I was a “Yes Man”.
Btw, I like your new avatar.
__(\__
Buzzword? Take your shoes off before you type!
OOPS!! Marina actually reads this stuff.
I hope it is not used to determine who is the “Pet Of The Day”
Otherwise this little teddybear is STUFFED!!!!
Take your shoes off before you type.
Very clever melikadotheargentiniantangonext
I thought that was more captainjack’s sense of humour
Enjoyed today’s quote and here’s one back at you.
“Wit is the unexpected copulation of ideas.” - Samuel Johnson, 1752
Great to see you in uniform again.
I bet that was a lot funnier in 1752.
(he said copulate!) LOL
good quote, tho
Copulate probably had a more innocent meaning then
Cop you later ! 2HFWFC
Thank you very much Marina!
What an honor and a privilege to be your pet.
You have many great students and I am humbled.
Also thanks for the guitar return because it always fires me up.
Please continue your quest to educate and entertain.
You always do a great job.. so thanks again. +5
My world expanding with words
David
Congrats dvdpage.
World expanding? That can’t be the only thing expanding.
Your mind is…. Oh what did you think I meant?
What is it like to be a teachers pet
What kind of things do you do
GIVE ME THE SECRET, I BET YOU ALREADY WAS A PET BEFORE…HMMM
@ Cimska, I don’t know. I have never been one. I hear it many things. Having Marina speak your screen name from her sexy lips maybe. Or everyone congratulating you on being picked as a Pet. I always fantasize her wearing her hot yellow top speaking my name. (btw Marina do you have the same top but in bright green?)
What kind of things you do. Well the normal stuff. Get out of bed. Log on to HFW and contribute your words and thoughts. Thats basically it I imagine. What do you think it should be?
It’s great to have been the teachers pet, Friends laugh at you, you get to show off the video to anybody who will look. My kids look at me a little differently now & I think I may have to email the video to my wife LOL. You guys that haven’t had the priviledge yet still have anticipation on your side. What have I to look forward too
I hope I’m not a forgotten friend. I know Marina will look after her pets even if we are a bit ugly or pesky at times. Thank you & care for your own.

You brainstormin’, melikadothechacha?
I love melikadothechacha normally because he makes me laugh but I say have you been smoking the whacky backy tonight our kid ?
Maybe you can just run that by me again in the language of the hwatawawa tribe of Outer Mongolia.
Nothin wacky going on here. Just an observation comparing some of the ideas being expressed by you guys to the framework of thought suggested by the series “Heroes”.
ie. helping the helpless makes us all stand taller.
you can laugh now!
Yehbut, explain the “Beautiful soup - Gene Wilder, Alice in Wonderland” parts…
Gene Wilder played the tortoise and sang
a sad song, about turtle soup, called
“Soup Beautiful Soup”. from the mid ’90’s
What movie?
OK but why was it used in such a random manner like word association.
Exactly! (Thank you, 2hotforwordsfanclub.)
Well, melikadothechacha…?
Stop hogging the reefer melikadothechacha give some others the change to get onto your astral plain
Marina?
I sense Marina has been here. HERE on this moon/thread/post/etc.…
Strange…
I know that you are right WL
Please make me your pet, Marina. I want to know if “sniglets” are allowable in the dictionary.
If so, they would cease to be sniglets.
I think…
what animal is a a snig and do they come in litters herds or packs ?
I don’t know, but elephants come in quarts…
