    like the sound of # 3 however, i think it is # 2

    Marina;
    You are a real cutie, no doubt! Your trip to the fridge proves (again) that you are hot forwords & hot backwards as well… What else to say to someone who likes good tea & good cheese…

    It was originated in the old English pubs. It stands for To insure prompt service.

    what about the word Multimedia. This is a very common word, where does it comes from?

    thanks

  13. mikei14975 on May 30th, 2008 1:25 pm

    Marina can I request the word ‘Peeping Tom’? I want to know where it came from and if it has anything to do with a guy named Tom. Please and thank u- Mikei14975

    As you were making your tea, I had to wonder if you were wearing any panties.

    Oh yea, the lesson: TIPS #3

    What am I thinking? Now that you’re an almost-famous type in HollyWould, maybe you only tip rock stars onstage with your panties.
    Takes me back to the days on Sunset Strip when the rock stars used to throw ME…well, that’s another lesson:

    Hello Marina,
    Here’s a “word”? that I found reading today.
    “misunderestimated”
    Is there a word for this word?
    Does this mean “overestimated”?
    Thanks, Marina

  19. hutchiee on May 30th, 2008 6:27 am

    I’ve always assumed it was to insure prompt service but I don’t think the spelling and grammar around the use of insure is correct (ensure?). I’m going with #2.

    For a word suggestion, has you done the for unlawful carnal knowledge word?

  20. fernando_casanovas on May 30th, 2008 5:57 am

    Hi Marina, I would like to know where did the words table because in italian was tabola and castellano tabla

  21. fernando_casanovas on May 30th, 2008 5:54 am

    Hola marina soy de argentina, mejor dicho de puerto madryn chubut patagonia. Mi duda es la siguiente. La palabra en ingles “table” de donde probiene??? ya que en italiano es la tabola en español tabla y en ingles table. son muy parecidas entre si. Espero que sepas castellano jajaja bueno besos grandes y sos una diosa… directamente ya vas a pasar como un amor platonico.

  22. dafiina on May 30th, 2008 5:30 am

    Hi Marina, I would like to know where did the words ‘Cellar’ and ‘Basement’ originate from, and do they have the same meaning, I did not want to register on your website but I had to somehow to be able to request a word, now I challenge you to tell me the meaning of the word ‘dafiina’. All the best ! :wink:

  23. nickbnn on May 30th, 2008 4:54 am

    Hi Marina!

    I like emotions that I feeling when looking at you. I like your emotions too when you are teching us :)
    So I just want to know the origin of the word - EMOTIONS

    Kiss you
    Nick

  24. modelloverguy11 on May 30th, 2008 4:45 am

    I’m guessing #3. btw, can you tell us what the origin of the word, “reptile”. I heard it’s from a middle-eastern word “reptil”, which was from the old french word, “reptile”, which was from the latin words, “reptile” (long e) and “reptilis”, which means “creeping”. But I don’t believe this as the Komodo Dragon can grow more than 4 ft, and when it walks, it’s not exactly called crawling.
    your student,
    Gabriel

  25. astaroth267 on May 30th, 2008 4:37 am

    It would have to be word origin #2, the other 2 use bad grammar, the context that your using the word ‘insure’ should be ‘ensure’ which would make it T.E.P or T.E.P.S

  26. biagini2 on May 30th, 2008 4:25 am

    My favorite tip is “Don’t use Drugs” I guess #3? Oh, nice legs!

  27. jacksonchoo on May 30th, 2008 3:54 am

    Dear teacher Marina, I often come across the word ‘cum’. e.g. i am working as a janitor cum office clerk. and i shoot my cum all over her belly. please help me my beautiful ans sexy teacher. thank you very much.

  28. redneck0691 on May 30th, 2008 3:35 am

    i’ll have to go with Number 3.
    Can you please tell me where “Pretty Ugly” came from. these two words are exact opposite but we use them together all the time.
    I love you and love your lessons, keep them coming! :grin:

  29. axium2277 on May 30th, 2008 3:34 am

    i’ll go with #3 :cool:

    Hi,

    I would like to know where the word “Masturbation” came from, its a kl word and would love to hear you say that in a sentance lol

    Great site btw
    x

  31. tiger13cd on May 30th, 2008 2:13 am

    i would guess #2 or #3 but i just want to watch you get some more tea, or could you make me a cup…

  32. eulogic on May 30th, 2008 12:34 am

    I’m going to go with origin number two :!:

    Hellloo Marina!!!!! I am back. I have neer really left persay, just VERY tied up with oboigations. I’ll be sure to catch up on all of your video segments and buy your books, dvds, etc…

    gotta jet…

    p.s. have you read “who moved my ceese?”\\also, for the record you look amazing today.

    BillyB replied on May 30th, 2008 7:37 am:

    While you were gone, someone moved your cheese You sound busy, must be looking for new cheese. “Smell the cheese often…”
    Marina looks amazing everyday, too bad you have to miss out sometimes.

  35. aristoteles on May 29th, 2008 11:52 pm

    what, i love different kind of cheeses but didn´t get any

  36. dvdpage on May 29th, 2008 11:12 pm

    I’m guessing number one. I’ve heard it’s “to insure promptness”
    from friends.
    Marina, I like the human side of the show today. You sure
    are a cutie pie! I’m gonna look out for that tea.
    Thanks again and +5 for you.

    captainjack replied on May 30th, 2008 9:37 am:

    Welcome back Dvdpage. Missed ya. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
    Kinda missed the favor of her old videos that where less scripted. I guess thats why people where attracted to “Real World” show. It was a bit harder to predict what was going to happen. And YouTube is filled with unscripted videos. Think about what makes a great movie. You laugh, You cry, You fear, You get mad, You get happy. You experience all the emotions in an hour and half. That makes a good movie. Do you agree?

    dvdpage replied on May 31st, 2008 12:32 am:

    Thanks,
    I’ve been busy but wouldn’t miss out for long.
    Marina keeps it real and I do agree with you.

    I was lively in the latest “tips answer” today so
    I’ll catch up to you later. Its 12:30 and I’ve got
    a 6:00 wakie later on.

  37. stonedrose18 on May 29th, 2008 10:05 pm

    I’m also wondering where the phrase “What’s up?” came from.

  38. stonedrose18 on May 29th, 2008 10:01 pm

    I’m thinking it’s option two.

    -stonedrose18

  39. green rubber band on May 29th, 2008 9:48 pm

    I’m going to take a wild guess and say #2.

  40. lowlvlflt on May 29th, 2008 9:33 pm

    Privet Marina,
    To Insure Prompt Service would be the answer here… and also..

    I’m wondering what the origin of the term “Cloud 9″ comes from? As in, someone that is lost in their own world, not paying attention, or extremely happy. But the origin?? I know if anyone can find it, you can!!

    I leave you a hug

  42. nwsailor on May 29th, 2008 9:01 pm

    to insure prompt service is the answer.

    I think you should go over the origin of the word threshold.

  43. BoArgMir on May 29th, 2008 8:16 pm

    :?: Marina,

    Maybe I should have posted this here and not in the Bistro Answer. Just wondering if you gave credit to the wrong person on Bistro request. You said BOGAMIR requested it. Did you mean me, BOARGMIR?? I did not request Bistro. Just thought I’d let you know that someone else may want the credit for that word. :smile:

    BOARGMIR

    aLx replied on May 29th, 2008 8:39 pm:

    yes, she meant you. but she’s right, your name is bogamir, you just spelled it wrong.

    buzzword replied on May 29th, 2008 8:57 pm:

    i looked that up in the dictionary… can’t find it. so you can’t spell it.

    Marina replied on May 29th, 2008 11:40 pm:

    Actually there is a bogamir and he requested the word :-)

    buzzword replied on May 30th, 2008 4:17 am:

    are you saying my dictionary widget is wrong?

    aLx replied on May 30th, 2008 10:38 am:

    pah! write your own dictionary! including your own spelling! and when you get like 300 years old you’ll have an expert opinion on correct spelling and make others spell as it says in buzzword’s dictionary!
    btw, the spelling check in safari marks “ain’t” as not being in its dictionary. sux0r.

    buzzword replied on May 30th, 2008 12:15 pm:

    that’s like my point, who’s dictionary is correct? the authority of a dictionary is situational. sure writing a resume, term paper, article whatever a dictionary is handy. but, when i need to define a word i heard on the street where do i go? back to the street, where the action is. i mean consider the word, “junk” the phrase, “do you want to see my junk?” one could find themselves in a garbage heap with a naked dude selling heroine. the usefulness of the holy dictionary is situational and infrequent during conversation. i use it when the situation demands it, and that situation doesn’t necessarily establish rules for word use in other situations.

    for example:

    EPIlogue
    EPIcenter
    EPIlepsy
    EPIsode
    EPIc
    EPIdermis

    see what i mean? i would very much like the origin and the meaning of that

  46. tabowers215 on May 29th, 2008 7:44 pm

    I have a word, rather a phrase, I would like to know the origin of: ” THE WHOLE NINE YARDS”
    Which is used to describe using every thing availible, going the distance, giving everything you have. I have heard that this comes from WWII, that fighter planes had the .50 calibre ammo laid out before being s-folded into the ammo trays in the wings. The capicity of these trays were 27 feet of belted ammo, or NINE YARDS. So if you came back empty, you gave the enemy all you had, or THE WHOLE NINE YARDS!
    This is a good story and sounds very feasible, but is it true. I know Marina can find the truth! :grin:

  47. tabowers215 on May 29th, 2008 7:32 pm

    I will go with # 2.

  60. paedi on May 29th, 2008 4:54 pm

    no one of the 3 answers is correct!
    The word originates from the 16th century verb tip, which meant “to give unexpectedly”, and was derived from the German word tippen, meaning “to tap.”

  61. capman911 on May 29th, 2008 4:36 pm

    captainjack replied on May 30th, 2008 9:54 am:

    Oh My Gawd Mr. B. We must have been sleeping on the switch on that one. Your right she did cut the cheese and then never apologized about it. In fact I heard the knife hit the counter when she cut the cheese. It must have been bad because did you see her put the cheese into an air tight plastic bag? Oh then she sits right in front of the camera and eats the cheese right in front of us. She didn’t even offer any cheese for us. She gave some to that rat. She didn’t even offer any to our pet hamster Tig.
    Well that was my feeble attempt to poke fun at Marina cuts the Cheese joke. :roll:

  65. errin on May 29th, 2008 2:25 pm

    I’m trying to play the ‘guess the cheese’ game. It looked like a big wedge of Jarlsberg that got sliced into, but the lack of holes within the cheese would denote otherwise. I am going to go out on a limb and guess that the cheese in this video lesson was Edam. I may never know if I’m right. Anybody else out there have any guesses? :???:

    captainjack replied on May 29th, 2008 4:03 pm:

    I also don’t wanna be named “mister whippy”.

    buzzword replied on May 29th, 2008 9:40 pm:

    dude, if that chick wanted to call you mister whippy you would be there with a paper hat and an ice cream scoop.

    aLx replied on May 29th, 2008 9:42 pm:

    and a whip.

    yeah.

    Monterey Jack.

    tiger-the-vicious replied on May 29th, 2008 8:18 pm:

    Why does Captain Jack want to know about Monterey ? :lol:

    captainjack replied on May 29th, 2008 11:36 pm:

    Well I’ve been to Monterey, Cali and heard there was some cheese there so I just took AWAG (A Wild Ass Guess) and picked Monterey. I like Monterey Jack mixed with Colby. But it has to be organic or I might die with a smile on my face. :mrgreen:

    sniperskaya replied on May 30th, 2008 6:17 am:

    Captainjack, would that be orgasmic instead of organic then?

    captainjack replied on May 30th, 2008 10:05 am:

    Naw cheese doesn’t turn me on that much. Im highly allergic to bovine products that have pesticides in them. I frown at the “Drink Milk” ads. :sad: I can’t understand why they want me to drink poison. Oh now I remember why. Its so I can buy some kind of pill to make me feel better. Drink the Kool-Aid they say.. yea right! :razz:

    It would be nice if someone could figure out a way for a site like this one would automatically reload itself instead of hitting F5. :?:

    pennsyltucky9 replied on May 29th, 2008 3:03 pm:

    F5 doesn’t even do it for me, I have to click on the “latest lesson” icon.

    sniperskaya replied on May 30th, 2008 6:23 am:

    Pennsyltucky9, what web browser are you using? I’m using Firefox and it reloads automatically.

  68. sniperskaya on May 29th, 2008 1:49 pm

    Marina, while we’re tossing around ideas for costumes I don’t suppose you would ever consider body paint? I’ve seen some incredible bodypaint jobs at FantasyFest in Key West…

    captainjack replied on May 29th, 2008 4:10 pm:

    Body paint!?!?! Im losing conscious just thinking about it.

    Can you find the origins of the phrase “on cloud nine”?

  82. zackbennett on May 29th, 2008 11:11 am

    Hello Marina!

    I’ve been working in a mine for 2 years, a really big hole in the earth. Recently I discovered your lessons, and I was wondering, Why is it called a Mine? Im sure there must be some history to it.
    Thanks!

  83. shaun dunne on May 29th, 2008 11:08 am

    Umm I would say 2 since 1 and 3 are very similar, it’s unlikely that they are right. I also have two words that would be interesting to use in the show. I already know their meanings but they come from the same period in time and are two commonly used phrases, they are:

    1: Eavesdrop
    –and–
    2: The phrase: A square meal

    Great video as always

    [: zdravstvuj marina:]

    i think maybe you should od word “robot” , cos i guess you know it is not of american origin, but of a czech autor karol capek, it is actually a abreviation. i think that might be interesting…

    filip from slovakia(former czechoslovakia)

  85. joefrombradford on May 29th, 2008 10:38 am

    I think its number 2…

    And if i am wrong i will be willing to wear the Dunces Cap :lol:
