To get that wasp waist it must be a girdle
It is baseball season. Where did the term “Texas League single” come from?
sure girdle, but how about girder
another well know word from gird would have to be girdle…
I’d like to request the word ‘Miscellaneous’, it drives me crazy.
I’d like to discuss the word spanner or wrench set as that turns me nuts (Ouch)
i registered just to ask you about the word ‘Kalashnikov’ it is Russian and i would like to know more about ‘Kalashnikov’.
:?: 
Ask sniperskaya, he deals in them…
I thought a kalashnikov was an assault rifle, not a sniper rifle. never touched a gun, though, so I don’t really know what I’m talking about.
To quote sniperskaya:
…Mikhail Timofeyevich Kalashnikov, “father” of the rifles that bear his patronymic. Avtomat Kalashnikova model 1947. With over 100 million of the AK series and their variants produced (RPK, SVD, Tygr, Saiga, shotguns, etc.), he has been twice named “Hero of Socialist Labor” (Герой работы социалиста) and awarded the Order of Saint Andrew the Protoclete (Заказ священнейшего Андрюа Protoclete). He even has a vodka named after him. I think at one time Russia even had a brand of Kalsahnikov or AK cigarettes. So with either with the rifles, vodka, or cigarettes he’s gonna get you!
Me? I’ve only touched BB-guns and the like…
Alongside the M1 Garand, the Kalashnikov is one of the finest weapons ever made
I would like to know where the word “Boner” comes from. For example, I had a boner (erection) in the morning when I saw boobies.
For wordlovers i know where it come from But i just want you dear teacher to make a lessons about it that all
I not some asshole who learn martial arts to get chicks.
No i am the real deal and i have some homework for you
Look for Watanabe Kondo, Shidoshi-Ho
Marina, дорогой учитель, first, welcome back. Hope you had a good weekend. It was Mother’s Day Sunday. Does Russia celebrate Mother’s Day? Since we hear so much about “Mother Russia” it seems that you should. If so, how does it differ from Mother’s Day in the USA? Just curious…
спасибо

Hello Marina,
I’d like to know where does the word voluptuous comes from?
’s ‘ matter, pennsyltucky9, cat got your tongue?
Don’t get me started, for I fear
“He is putting it blithely
when he says
quobble in the grass
Strab he down the soddieflays,
amo amat amass.
A monk, a mink, a minibus
amarmeladey moon.
a moss amiss a multiplus
A mighty midgey spoon.
And so we traddled onward,
Careing not a care
Onward, onward, onward.
Onward, my friends, to victory and glory
for the thirtyninth.”
Glad to see you back John! And your front too! Missed you both.
pennsyltucky9, is that yours? If not, who said it? ’s great!
Poem “Alec Speaking” by John Lennon from the book, “In His Own Write and A Spaniard In the Works.”
Quoted from memory. If I look hard enough, the book will turnip somewhere.

There Are 666 Comments for “Gird Your Loins (Answer)”
Have you ever hit the Digg Button?
714 now. Are we going for a record?
Then here’s a worthy one; if we really have 68,238,545 + 1 soldiers in this army, why don’t we pick one of Marinas videos and all view it on YouTube?
If we all give Marina our Bleeding Love we could knock Leona Lewis off the “most viewed of all time” spot by this time tomorrow.
I suggest we do the “G4 TV Appearance” video as that already has 2.5 million views to give us a head start.
My word request is “stemcell”. The answer(s) to your homework question is a word derived from gird is girder. As in a steel girder that is used to bind up the loins of a building, so to speak. Also girdle, which has an obvious connection. Possible third derivation of gird could be guard. A guard is a form of binding up the perimeter of an area. You might even have a guard girdling girders. picture that as you may. School was never like this, teacher!
is there rules for over requesting words?
Hell no! I’ve been over-requesting words since I got here!
more of a guideline, than a rule:
check the lessons list for words
she has already done.
Only 1 rule :-
Rule “36-24-36″ - You have to request the word “bikini” first, before requesting other words.
Thank you wordlover. i like yours to
¡Gracias!
can i request for the words who, what, where why and how?
When?
Huh?
No that a different unrealated word melika
What ? How do you mean ? I don’t know where you are coming from. Who ? Sorry …..either of the three of you LOL
crazyfreakomaniac forgot to say “when” (literally) and so I added it, and as a bonus my comment could also be interpreted as meaning “when (do you want her to do these words)?”
As always directed to the true Philologist, Marina
and not to the MENSA people here or the Robin Williams or
the George Carlins, and US NAVY SEALS and the devoted
Philology BLACK BELTS and the tiny Bob guy who has
a “morning problem” and could use some Viagra in here…LOL
LOL, I just love the pure entertainment of the brainy in here??
LOL
What is the origin of the words, “handicapped?”
LOL
referring to all “the Others” on this Lost type of forum island.
LOL
Vini Vidi Vici
Don’t worry, I won’t answer your Marina-directed questions, but I think I get it now: you’re just being sarcastic, aren’t you? You’re NOT really a pædophilic asshole, right?…
Lumme, I was starting to worry there for a moment…
Is viagra the “blue pill” i’ve heard about in here?
de mortuis nil nisi bonum dicendum est
Cur? Et qui mortui?
Dear teacher,
I ‘ve read nearly hundreds of comments in your website. There is a lot of “declarations” (love oriented comments). I was wondering, how do you react? Do you feel flattered? Do you believe in these comments? Do they help you in hard moments? Well, how do you live all this?
Excuse me for my curiosity (perhaps interest?)
Amicalement,
Your devoted psychanalist euh…. student,
Don Felipe Gonzales Freud of the strange questions land.
Dear teacher,
OoOops I forgot something as usual, is it possible to request the origins of the word beyond?
Thank you
Don Felipe Gonzales of the forgettingmenland
aren’t you a little Jung to talk like that?
she does read your stuff, you know…
Don’t, melikadothechacha, he may take it the wrong way…
Marina reads the comments looking for things that “tickle her fancy”
Dear fellow student
I am sorry, m’sieur “Moi qui aime danser le Cha cha cha”, I won’t do that again, I promise. Please, don’t tell my mum….
Hey!!!! Why do I REACT LIKE THAT? YES I TAKE IT THE WRONG WAY!!!! Aren’t you too old to dance the cha cha cha!?????!!!!!
Amicalement
Don Felipe Gonzales
You should do the word, FLOCCINAUCINIHILIPILIFICATION

Yeah. It’s been facedated…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMrk9ea1m0g
I cut my teeth on this one, popped my cherry.
A lot of request for this one. I liked getting the

Girdle!!!!!!!!
i have a word for ya, “crowbar” crow is a bird and a bar is a bar…

crowbar hotel = jail
AKA “making the bucket” in 1960s-era trampspeak.
“I made the bucket in Seattle one time for pooling; I asked a guy how much he was holding on a jug and he turned out to be a ragpicker and pinched me.”
-James Spradley
Marina is getting so bombarded with word requests……how can she possibly keep up? If you look at you tube…same thing!! With so many members now…..she must need to get more assistants (real ones) to help.
MARINA—a suggestion…
….if you CONSOLIDATE all the requests onto one page listing…..members could go to this one page and scan for word submissions BEFORE they submit to you. This would severely cut down on the repeat submissions.
You could also have the names of members next to the word to give them credit.
What do you MEMBERS think?? How about it Marina??
BoArgMir
Marina asks that word requests are left on this HFW website and I guess that if I were her I would not lower myself to ‘listen’ to the common abuse she tends to attract from many on youtube.
I can’t bear to ‘listen’
It is the more educated fellows like yourself (I know this because I enjoyed your letter and you got this far anyway ) with a vivacious appetite for literary knowledge (and also think that our hero is super tasty) that subscribe here
If you want people to think that you had a few dictionary pages for breakfast rather that Corn Flakes or just simply have the hots for Marina then this is the right place for you.
And an intelligent lady is much more stimulating.
So welcome to the feast of etymology (and the most painful pun (play with words) showdowns possible unfortunately).
There are many forums with fascinating or just hilarious threads so do have a good look round, SHARE YOUR KNOWLEDGE WITH US and most importantly HAVE GREAT FUN. Please remember that there are many different nationalities cultures and customs involved that may not understand yours so tread carefully initially (trust me I didn’t and I regret it….sorry proz and WL).
If Marina (toohotforwords I call her) reads any comments, (and I am certain that she does ) it will most likely be here, but she’s a very busy lady please don’t ever expect a reply but feel blessed with the divine privilege if she does , as I have never been that lucky. (so far )
I LOVE YOU MARINA xxx
As for the Teacher’s Pet we all dream of that one day.
Just to have your name mentioned for nominating that lesson’s word ….sigh dream on 2HFWFC
Hear, hear! I concur!
Thank you, Father 2hotforwordsfanclub, that was a marvelous sermon!
I love Marina Triple X, TOO!
ANYONE…….who has received one of Marina’s cards….what are they like? I have signed up for them, but was after the last one (April 1 cards) went out. Is it just a photo? Just curious
don’t know if this violates protocol,
but what the hay! here’s a link:

OMG , I missed those !!!!
Hey i’m going to see if i can buy one on ebay
— Marina: Fueling the Imaginations of Mankind
Until the ’script has catapulted me to a multi-millionaire status, … once a week I will come to visit and to listen to our Marina.
… for a moment I toy with thoughts that some Grand Purpose didn’t design that “thing” Marina talking and moving on my computer screen right now, and while I watch her for the next few moments …, as if pondering upon a work of art I listen to my thoughts as I sit and stare at our Marina.
“There is no God?”
Ha! How silly a thought! Of course some thing made her like that …!~
Bill? Bill Gates? Is that you, bro?
I am Mergatroidal.
Interesting, Mac World!
Snagglepuss had a tag line
“Heavens to mergatroid”
kinda like “heavens to Betsy”
I dunno who betsy is, either
Gee, thank you, Dr. Seuss!
Betsy is a horse in Michigan during the 1940’s, … and I just now changed the mother of Mergatroid from Betty to Betsy. Polishing and perfecting the ’script, I am …
melikadothechacha, I want to extend a cordial, heartfelt thank you for the “heavens to Betsy” line. Bringing that line to my attention was a good thing.
Now, … if I could somehow acquire ten words, two sentences of direct quote to use from our beloved Marina, I’d feel like a million bucks …!
…, hello?
(and these … damn … dots! I can’t seem to get rid of ‘em …! They follow me around … all the time …
LOL…
D’oh!…
…
she stops by to check things from time to time. you could get lucky.
You must be thinking all the time; hence the dots. they represent trailing thoughts….
What?…
Wait, hang on a sec’…
………
……
…
Aha! I see!
I persevere, steering an opportunity my way = luck …, until the goal is met.
and where do ya go to catch a
train of thought?
A neuro trainsmittion Station ?
Sorry my foot slipped
I meant to say a neuron trainsmittion station
I like to think of her in a white lab coat …, the words synaptical, Heirarchical Temporal Memory, … cognitive functions of the neocortex …, paradigm shifts …, juicy words to imagine heard with slavic inflections as I slip off into la-la land.
I tend to sleep very well at night. Thanks for reminding me …!
ocipetal cortex (lizard brain)
or bird brain, if you will.
wordslover - where you at?
(window of opportunity to
quip the train o’ thought)
(yeah yeah, I know it’s a lobe not a cortex)
Who the hell is wordslover and why is his/her screenname so damn similar to mine?
(which is to say, 
)
Five years from now, the reality? I dunno. For now Marina is my imaginary research partner, and the paper of Papers is the goal. That face and voice of hers is absolutely cool … to imagine.
…, …
Marina and I did the research and wrote the paper detailing biological cognition. Marina and I are within all future history books, with the titans … where ever we go, what ever we do, we are so cool.
At the news conference after picking up our Nobel Prize(s), a reporter asks either one of us, “How’d you two find each other?”
Pondering an answer, “Please …, please, … please!!!!” are the only words Marina can think of at the moment. I’m thinking of an answer to the question too, and all I can think of is that I knew we could do excellent research together, and that somehow I gotta get to know her better. Get to know her better by first acquiring a couple million dollars to myself, and then I can begin to talk “turkey” with her.
… to be continued.
Cool! Free comics! Can y’add pictures with ‘em, mergatroidal?
That second to the last sentence should have read, “… and then I can begin to talk some serious “turkey” with her.”
Nothing imaginary about her lessons, Mergatroi!
wordlover? in the old BBS days, repeat names
were numbered, as in: beefcake1, beefcake2,
and so on. If he had hit on your exact name,
the interface would have said “unavailable”.
Hm’kay? so figure it’s just another event
more cosmic than karmic, not to sweat.
Whoever uses her eyes for a gravatar…
well, let’s hope it works out.
¿ɥƎ
I have to read and ketchup with all the replies. I’m still replying to …, on catching the train of thought, how to.
Or like maddog1, maddog2, maddog3, everyone line up? Plurals, suffixes, prefixes, wordlover you have to separate from the pack, somehow, it seems.
Okay, I’ll type rightside up! There, is that better?
Melika is not passing the reefer again WL.
LOL! that made me think of another polysylablic word!
Decorum does not permit here.
Drugs are bad. Hm’kay?
Too many comments in box, chacha!
…start another box - takes too long to scroll
Thank you—Mgmt.
PS—And no reefs about the cracker…
…started another box - taking too long to scroll
umm oh yeah, wordlover vs wordslover
you were noticing my faux pas, er typo.. umm
Mergatroid, you are really jazzed! Turkey?
three strikes in baseball is an out.
three strikes in bowling is turkey.
turkey jerky ain’t bad, beats road kill
And speaking of baseball, I belive it is the 100th anniversary of “Take Me out to the Ballgame”.
I think.
I believe I think.
I think I believe.
I————’ll stop the joke right here…
Ten-twenty here in New York. Bedtime for Bonzo.
nobody took the bait?!!
- the phrase
“lost my train of thought”
how did this string come
to mean what it does today?
wordlover, yer slackin’ LOL
can’t just give it away, y’know.
Well, thanks to you and tiger-the-vicious, I’m having to answer two different posts in two different lessons AT THE SAME TIME…
it’s just a feeling, it’ll pass
i would like to know the origin of the word “bloody” the way people from the U.K. use it.example….it`s “bloody” cold outside”,there way of swearing?
your future teachers pet….ericou812
I use it when it’s not appropriate
to cuss, like at church and such.
(
)
Snickers®snickerThe word is bleeding stupid i say ! sorry
It is considered profane to all God fearing people because it is referring to the blood of our dear Lord Jesus Christ which was spilt for the benefit of mankind
Bloody clumsy I reckon.
No, it’s a contraction of “By our Lady” (i.e., Mother Mary). Leastways, that’s how I reckon it…
ok - lemme esplain mice elf
i was baptized, raised and confirmed Episcopalian. Acolyte, Crucifer the whole shebang. Now, read what I said befor.e
zat was zen, zis is now
ok - that was a little murky and dark
let’s just sum it up this way:
“Bloody” has more of a pop cultural
aspect as it is used nowadays.
The connotations, as described by
2HFWFC and WL, have been lost.
Blame the cinema, I guess.
I would like to know about the word POPPYCOCK .
actually i have a word request: “Soulmate”
Whoa! Neat gravatar, dude!
yeah, nobody has one
using marinas eyes….
THanks ya
word request: what is the origin of “bikini”?
Howi,
I keep waiting for our buxom blonde bombshell to cover this one also, and it keeps going unnoticed. Must be 20 requests for it over the last coouple months. I think I answered about three of them with the info I had, but I’d love to see Marina do the origin of BIKINI, myself. Let’s wait and see if she picks it up this time.
If not, d’ you want the long or the short version?
howbout you dont tell us and we let her tell us
Marina! tell us!
and it would be cute if you wore one of ur bikinis while you told us
Copy that, meehowik.
I think the “bikini request” is dead in the water.
Depends on who’s wearing it? Whose loin is it anyway?
after the bikini atoll islands?
this sounds right, so how did the french turn it into a swimsuit?
I’m holding out for the tube top lesson, myself
Affirmative, eric812.
But all I covered in my definition was some natural history of the atoll itself and the reason why the bathing suit was named after it. I didn’t even touch on the Polynesian language roots of the 3 syllables that make up the word.
That’s a job for MARINA! Do the word BIKINI!
I’m tired of explaining it again and again! Help us out here, dear teacher.
Maybe she could even demonstrate how to put one on. Something I’ve always wondered about…..Then we can all go to the beach on a field trip! That’s what we need around here!
melikadothechacha,
Look in either the mayday answer or the Molotov Cocktail vid for my dissertation on the origin of the bathing suit. I’m pretty sure it’s re-posted somewhere in one of those. If not, it’s further back. Good luck, S.O.U.P.mate.
Yeah. But how do we get Marina to do a lesson in a TUBE TOP???
(trying to focus on the important stuff)
Just get some new X-ray specks, Chacha!
These ARE Xray specs! LOL
She’s got great bones
Bleh! keyboard gremiln
…great bone structure
so where did the snafu lesson go?
Snafu
I think what aLx is getting at is that the Snafu link on “The Complete Lesson List” now points to “Golf Answer”.
hey, bob.
so you discovered the blockquote tag, huh?
yeah, you’re right, it now points to the golf lesson, that’s why I asked. actually, I wanted to take a look at the comments to that lesson on here so youtube doesn’t really help in this case. thanks, though.
snafu on this site
thx.
how the hell did you find it?
I’m a simple guy, so I simply typed “Snafu” into the search box at the top of the page.
Hi Marina,
Hows the GTA IV going, it must be fun, you’ve been awful quite for the last couple of days, not that you speak much anyway, but oh well.

Thank you
(Girding up his loins)
Yeah, after all those beans, I’m sycopharts, too…

Hey, come on this guy said he’s dying, lividemerald. Something has to be done, and fast!
Hold on a sec…
“9-1-1 Emergecy response.”
Uh, yeah. I have an urgent situation here. A guy said something about a psychotic elephant sat on him or something, anyway, I don’t know if he’s suicidal or what he said he’s dying, and, so like, I decided to you know, make the call. There’s also an unconfirmed report of some gas, I dunno what’s up wit that, so can you send somebody quick? Jeez, I can smell it…
I want to call 9-1-1, too. What’s the number?
Hey, the 9 was no problem, but it sure took me awhile to find the 11 key on my phone!
(annoying child’s voice) Ih-hih-hih! There IS no 11 key! You simply press the 1 key twice! Ih-hih-hih!
