Here is my answer to the cookie game plus what is a cookie on a computer, and why are they called that?
Good point birchbeertree. Think I’m gonna have to start using that. Though I think that could be attributed to a whole phase that spawned phrases like cutie/sugar pie, honeybun, cupcake etc etc. HFW and HFP are my sweet cheeks “slap”
You left out the American usage of cookie back in the 50’s. Cookie was use as a compliment to a cute girl or good looking girl, used as in. Hey there cookie, or heres look’in at you cookie, used as in a come on. Ya get my meaning cookie.
My psychic powers will let me guess the next word Marina will discuss in a video….
…… let me think hard on this one… hmmmm….
I think it’s going to be drug -related… yes… I’m getting something….
Could it be… “cocaine?”
Hmmm…. let’s see if my psychic powers work!
Yep….I’m sure… I consulted the stars, the tarot cards, and the entrails of a sparrow, and they all point to the same thing - the next word will be “cocaine.”
Bets?
Bets?
Is that the name of your GF?
Anyway, I know how you did that.
How did you know?
I could tell you, Warren, but then I’d have to kill you.
Besides, these supreme mental powers that I have at my disposal are not safe in the hands of mere mortals. I am only now attempting to harness this power, and use it for good.
Funny!
But I think I’ve found out your secret.
It has something to do with a Tin Foil Cap.

hi there.
just curious about word ”Tort.”
appreciate if you could get background meaning of it.
cheers
Response to Tort. Tort is a claim to an injustice or intentional injury caused by the courts or government employees etc. It is a claim of wrong doing by the government. It is a body of law that creates remedy for, civil wrongs. A person who is legal injured may find remedy through a TORT.
Anything to do with Schwartzwaldkirschetort? (Black Forest Cake)
Better than any cookies.
A friend of mine saw this lesson and commented that the second half of the video seems like Marina’s take on internet dating, or at least hanging out with her student body. Such an intersting dynamic going on here at HotForWords.com. Reminds me of the song ‘Personal Jesus’ by Depeche Mode, only with a internet tilt…
Reach out touch faith
Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who cares
Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who’s there
Feeling unknown
And you’re all alone
Flesh and bone
By the telephone
Lift up the receiver
I’ll make you a believer
Take second best
Put me to the test
Things on your chest
You need to confess
I will deliver
You know I’m a forgiver
Reach out touch faith
Reach out touch faith
I will deliver
You know I’m a forgiver
Reach out touch faith
Your own personal Jesus
Reach out touch faith
Peace, Errin : )
And, on the flip side, the lyrics to a different Depeche Mode song called ‘Dream On’…
Can you feel a little love?
As your bony fingers close around me
Long and spindly
Death becomes me
Heaven can you see what I see
Hey you pale and sickly child
You’re death and living reconciled
Been walking home a crooked mile
Paying debt to karma
You party for a living
What you take won’t kill you
But careful what you’re giving
There’s no time for hesitating
Pain is ready, pain is waiting
Primed to do it’s educating
Unwanted, uninvited kin
It creeps beneath your crawling skin
It lives without it lives within you
Feel the fever coming
You’re shaking and twitching
You can scratch all over
But that won’t stop you itching
Can you feel a little love?
Can you feel a little love?
Dream on dream on
Blame it on your karmic curse
Oh shame upon the universe
It knows its lines
It’s well rehearsed
It sucked you in, it dragged you down
To where there is no hallow ground
Where holiness is never found
Paying debt to karma
You party for a living
What you take won’t kill you
But careful what you’re giving
Can you feel a little love?
Can you feel a little love?
Dream on dream on
Can you feel a little love?
Can you feel a little love?
Dream on dream on
Dream on dream on
Peace, Errin : )
Errin could you please explain a little more on what you wrote. I didn’t quite get what you were try to get across. Sorry I am a little slow at these things.

A “cookie” is a text-only string that gets entered into the memory of a browser.
According to an article written by Paul Bonner for Builder.Com on 11/18/1997: “Lou Montulli, currently the protocols manager in Netscape’s client product division, wrote the cookies specification for Navigator 1.0, the first browser to use the technology. Montulli says there’s nothing particularly amusing about the origin of the name: ‘A cookie is a well-known computer science term that is used when describing an opaque piece of data held by an intermediary. The term fits the usage precisely; it’s just not a well-known term outside of computer science circles.’”
He got the term from the term “magic cookies” used by Unix programmers.
However, some people may believe that each individual person may define the word “cookie” differently, and no definition is correct or incorrect, except in the mind of the person defining it. I say, “may believe” since it is impossible to know one way or the other.
No video? What happened?

HTTP cookies, or more commonly referred to as Web cookies, tracking cookies or just cookies, are parcels of text sent by a server to a web client (usually a browser) and then sent back unchanged by the client each time it accesses that server. HTTP cookies are used for authenticating, session tracking (state maintenance), and maintaining specific information about users, such as site preferences or the contents of their electronic shopping carts. The term “cookie” is derived from “magic cookie,” a well-known concept in UNIX computing which inspired both the idea and the name of HTTP cookies.
Cookies have been of concern for Internet privacy, since they can be used for tracking browsing behavior. As a result, they have been subject to legislation in various countries such as the United States and in the European Union. Cookies have also been criticized because the identification of users they provide is not always accurate and because they could potentially be a target of network attackers. Some alternatives to cookies exist, but each has its own uses, advantages and drawbacks.
Cookies are also subject to a number of misconceptions, mostly based on the erroneous notion that they are computer programs. In fact, cookies are simple pieces of data unable to perform any operation by themselves. In particular, they are neither spyware nor viruses, despite the detection of cookies from certain sites by many anti-spyware products.
Most modern browsers allow users to decide whether to accept cookies, but rejection makes some websites unusable. For example, shopping carts implemented using cookies do not work if cookies are rejected
lol see ya
A lot of people like to delete their cookies thinking it makes them safer. Perhaps it does, marginally, but the biggest impact is you lose your session on sites. As an example, if I delete my cookies, I have to log back in to this site every time I visit, if I don’t, I remain logged in as long as WordPress allows. I’d rather have the convenience of cookies than some pre-Netscape 4 rational behind cookie security.
And I thought I was the only one that stayed logged in all the time.
Marina how about the word eavesdrop. t doesn’t have anything to do with the eave of a house or the night before which is spelled eve.
Hmmmm. Are you sure it doesn’t have anything to do with eaves of a house? What if someone up on the roof were to hang (or drop, as it were) their head down from the eaves outside an open window at night in order to overhear a conversation going on in an upstairs room? Just a guess. Of course, I’d rather speculate about it than actually look up the origin myself… It’s my day off.
When I do it the blood rushes to my head and I get dizzy.
So is that when you’d drop from the eaves into the alligator-filled moat below? I’m starting to see a word origin: it’s “drop-down menu.”
There you go. You’r not really off duty.
Pyback is hell my friend.
I can’t even spell pay I was laughing so hard.
an eavesdrop was the area around a house under the eaves that had to be kept clear for rain to drop so to hear what someone was saying in the house they hung around the eavesdrop to listen.
Sounds like a sound idea
So much for my wild-ass-guess… the imagery of Capman911 dangling his fishbowl-covered noggin from the roof is fast fading.
Fun while it lasted, though! Good-on-ya, peridotite magma! Stick around.
Please be careful not to drop your eaves.
I wear suspenders
My eaves need a little more support than just suspenders. Supported but free, you know?
I tried that juice combo… which I would have never thought of before. It’s a little strange but I think I like it!

So we drink more to try and keep up. Never ending cycle. but a good one.
i want to know the origin of the word “cd”.. why a cd was called cd? what ws the origin of the word cd ? Marina plz help me….. :roll
‘er…Compact Disc?…or Certificate of Deposit…
or, as i’ve sometimes heard, Certifiable Dumbarse…
Now, Now, annuddermale,
Cool Down.
thankx
Compact Disk
Oops. Apparently both “disc” and “disk” are correct.
Civil Defense?
Community Development?
The chemical symbol for cadmium?
Congressional District?
cd is also the abbreviation for “candela” meaning “a unit of luminous intensity equal to 1/60 of the luminous intensity per square centimeter of a blackbody radiating at the temperature of solidification of platinum (2,046°K). Also called candle.”
Or, do you mean the French corps diplomatique?
disc or disk?…a cultivator uses a disk, but a disc jockey shuffles platters, or discs…
all i will say is tsk-tsc!…
Marina,
Love your stuff. Not really a word request, just thought I’d tell you about a little game we used to play back in school called “Fictionary Dictionary”. Get a group of at least 6 people. One person leads each round. The leader looks through a dictionary for a word they don’t know. When they do, they ask the group if anyone knows it. If someone does, they keep looking until they find one that nobody knows.
When they find a word that is a complete mystery for everyone, the leader writes out the definition on a piece of paper. Everyone else makes up and writes their own definition on separate pieces of paper. The leader collects them, mixes them up and then reads each one to the group. Then everyone chooses which definition they think is the real one.
The leader gets 10 points for each person who doesn’t choose the real definition and other people get 10 points for choosing the correct definition. For each peson who chooses a made up definition, that author gets 5 points.
Continue until everyone has had a chance to be the leader. The winner is the person with the most points at the end of the circuit.

I request The Word WAR
Like is that an Abbreviation for something…
on a side note, why is abbreviation such a long word!!!
The word has about 6 origins all similar from 6 different countries, but the word is so ancient it is impossible to verify which one came first.
See my comments below on this word.
On the same note why is “long” such a short word ?
It’s all relative.
Another word request: Enfranchisement
DOROGOMYLAYA MARINA,konechno eto pravil’no,ya sovsem ne hochu osporit’ dovody svoego liubymogo prepodovatelya!
no pover’ mne: the Dutch word ”koekje” acquired by the American English was originated by the old French word ”COCAIGNE” which certainly derives from the Latin verb -COQUERE-…anyway i don’t want to be so boring! kstati..Marina, your own personal motto is -MENS SANA IN CORPORE SEXY- isn’t it? 
Maia Marina,
Contradictory answer you’ve given here to the word cook not having anything to do with little cake. Your words say one thing but you give a yes nod with your head at the same time.

Marina, errin has used an interesting word in his post below, namely “segueway”.
Do you accept this as a valid word or do you, like me, find it a redundant usage?
My point is that the first part, “segue”, stands on its own as the meaning of “segueway” and is pronounced “seg-way”, so if you use “segueway” you are actually saying “seg-way-way”.
I find this a bit way out.
Segue more complicated than it needs to be, eh?
People use this word to descirbe me (& i’m sure tons of other girls hear it as well, including you) a lot: BABE
Care to check it out for me? Thanks!!!!!
The following passage could be a large part of the reason why men call attractive females “Babe” or “Baby” (or “Baby Girl” as in the “Bad Grammar” video):-
An explanation for our attraction to “beautiful” people is that the traits we find beautiful are linked to successful reproduction (the evolutionary argument). If so, we would expect people all over the world to share universal ideals of beauty - which appears to be the case. Cunningham (1986) asked men to rate photographs of women; high ratings of physical attractiveness were associated with distinctive features: large eyes, a small nose and chin, prominent cheekbones, high eyebrows and a big smile. Similar traits are rated as attractive by different cultural groups (Langlois and Roggman, 1990).
The reason for universal agreement may not, however, be because such features indicate fertility - they are also associated with a “baby face”; a high forehead, big eyes and a small nose and chin. Adults may well have evolved a preference for “baby” features because this ensures that we care for our young, and for this reason such features elicit feelings of attraction.

On sexual evolution the “utilitarian” theory is not a stand-alone theory. If sexual evolution interresses you you can look here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ni7F-9OeH_s
And play with this game:
http://www.swimbots.com/
Then about human evolution it is to notice something strange: in almost every species it is the male who tries to seduce by showing off (colours, strength, peacock feathers, horns etc etc…) while human females are the ones who spend more time trying to diferenciate one another (make-up, high heels, wonder-bras, outfits etc ….).
This is an indication that beside the biological sexual evolution, the cultural gender role gameplay is at work.
:smile:ny of you ever look back to the first of these videos? She is losing Her accent.
Much more confident in Her diction. Mannerisms smooth as glass. But look for your selfs.
Hey Marina, how r u? i just wanted to request a word.
I wannted to know about the phrase ‘Bless you’ as in when you sneeze and someone around you says it.
please do this word! thatnks a lot, and keep up the great work!
And here I thought the Dutch were just known for their space cake.
Interesting juice concoction you got going there, Marina. Your health is your wealth, as they say, so it’s nice to see you are taking good care of yourself with diet and exercise. No, really, it’s quite nice to see how well you are taking care of yourself and staying in shape. Quite nice indeed. 
Oh ya, and your makeup has really been awesome and colorful lately. Great read on the intro lines to this lesson. HotForWords just keeps on getting better and better! 
Keep up the good work with the games and lessons, Ms. Orlova. Peace, Errin : )
Our trusty teacher is looking pretty tasty and refreshing herself in this video.
p.s. I believe “I’m going to make myself juice” is the better grammar, but “I’m going to make me juice” works fine. Either way, very cute segment, like a free cookie for those who played this game.
errin, I agree the makeup is good, but the less makeup the better for this kid. BTW, how was you’re friends gig? I would have come but just didn’t feel like driving for three hours each way.
I checked out her site though, pretty good, pretty good indeed 
To bad (for me) theres no dates in San Diego 
Aimee’s in-store gig went great. I unfortunately caught it a little late due to traffic, but only missed a couple songs. It was a small set of six songs, so it would indeed not have been worth going all that way, unless you wanted to get her autograph in the line after the show, or were really into her music. Thing is, the store she played at, Amoeba Records, had a live stream webcast of the show which may still be online for watching. I’ll see if I can find it and provide a link, as I wouldn’t mind watching it online if it’s there.
You should check out Aimee’s latest CD, @#%&*! Smilers, as it is a truly excellent album, her best so far in my opinion. My compliments to your choice in music.
The answer to the computer “cookie” has already been posted , rats.
Btw, did not get mail in regards to the answer, I had to visit your site. What happened?
Hi robroy87801,
This is a participation-oriented forum. If you don’t visit the site, you won’t know the outcome of the game. No one gets mail regarding the answers, but she does notify us when someone responds to our personal comments or when a new video posts. But the biggest loss if you don’t actively participate is that we lose your input.
So what do you think? Make some comments on what you read here, or on the video post. Give Marina a few word suggestions for her next videos.
See you around the campus.
Hey I’ve seen you somewhere before
Blue…Blue?…blue

That was cute Pagedoll.
So was the Blue Baby-doll nighty.
I’d like to know more about the word Meridian because I moved here a while ago and I think it the word has an interesting sound.
sweet, it was number 3
Oh, last night I was at a Red Rooster place (Like KFC), and I heard timbaland’s - The Way I are, and I couldn’t help thinking of the “Bad Grammar” song
Those wacky English!
A computer cookie was names after the fortune cookie. It stores information about pages viewed on a website as well as some personal information you enter.
Hello Marina!
How are you? I just signed up here, and hope you don’t find this request worthy of detention, but…
Where did the word “Puss” originate, and how does that relate to these other words? “Pussy Cat”, “Pussy Willow”, and “Pussyfoot”. What is the common denominator with the root of this word “puss”, or “pussy”?
I understand if you cannot reply publicly about the slang version of this, but if you have the time, I would like to know about the slang version after class.
Don’t forget the famous novelty ice cream cake known as Cookie Puss. It’s a slightly better segueway given the current lesson.
Maia Marina, This is what a cookie on the computer is, “cookie (kk)

Note the quotation marks, sorry for the cut and paste I was having a hard time putting it in my own words…….
But the whole point of Marina’s work is to teach you the words so you can learn to string them together to communicate ideas.
Make an effort; Stoker, More steam.
Hmmm… Foul Ball! I think 1 and 3 are saying the same thing and are both correct. Granted 1 is in English and 3 is in Dutch but doesn’t the Dutch word that means “little cake” also come from the Dutch word for “to cook?” Also, isn’t it likely that the English word “cook” comes from the same ancient word as the Dutch word for “cook?” Even the diminutive “ie” is given an equivalent in the Dutch word making it mean “little cake.”
I also wondered why kitchen and cook wouldn’t stem from the same Germanic root (Kuche, Koch) as the Dutch. Dutch language derives largely from das Deutsch, hence the similarity between the words “Dutch” and “Deutsch” unless I’m missing a major puzzle piece somewhere (which is well possible).
Marina a quick question. Are you still doing the ring tones?
Very positive lessons, make me looking forward to hearing a new lesson, despite my old age
You can’t never be to old to learn from Marina. Look I have this pain in my, no just kidding welcome aboard.
Mike
Hi Mike,
Nope, biscuits are definitely not in my diet, sorry. No cookies, no chips, no candy, no (sniffle) pizza. Arrgh. But on the positive side, I know how it feels to live forever, though. It’s definitely been forever since I had an Orange Julius. Case closed.
French roast?
Not the franchise, the recipe. Anyone can make one, but it’s off limits for me. Unless I want to give up beer.
Don’t tell me you’re (dark heavy organ chords here) over 20 (surprise music here)!!! OMG!
Don’t feel bad my friend I’ve never had an Orange Julius. I don’t think we have one her in Fayetteville. Could be wrong through.
Great video as always. I have a word request. Can you tell the origin of the phrase “cold feet”, as in to change your mind about doing something at the last moment. I get cold feet a lot so I was wondering where the phrase comes from haha.
What is the origin of one of my favorite words: brouhaha?
hey marina HotForWords I´d like to know the origin of the word “fuck”.
I´d like to know the meaning from this word.
gretings!!
bye.
Already done. Go to lessons on this website.
Man this word never goes away does it TTV
By the way are you and the group ok now (2HFWFC). Sounds like how I felt a week or so ago. Little butt still sore. Everyone has to vent every now and again. But the group stills sticks together.
Mike
Tig Vicious and the Water Pistols are fine thank you
We just went out for a for a four hour dance,….now I am dizzy Markie Warkie (2HFWFC) is learning to dance as a lady so I get spun a lot in his pocket.
Hey man I dance to Bob Marley man.
Really, this word is requested sometimes 2 or 3 times a lesson. So dude, maybe you ought to just go and look-up fuck yourself.
so what do you mean?
I guess I meant to be clever & a little offensive at the same time.
Forget it. It was just a freudian typo, that’s all. He didn’t mean it.
He’s right in a way. This is an easy one to look up. Plus, I think she covered it already in one of her Maxim Radio shows, if I’m not mistaken. Correct me if I’m wrong, guys?
I would like to know the origin of the word “Photography” for one of my good friends who is 22, he is a big photographer.
The word photography comes from the French photographie which is based on the Greek φώς (phos) light + γραφίς (graphis) stylus,paintbrush or γραφή (graphê) representation by means of lines or drawing, together meaning drawing with light.Traditionally, the product of photography has been called a photograph, commonly shortened to photo
sorry for my english
What do you mean sorry for your English. It is better than ours !
But I bet you can’t speak hamsterian though.
It was successful translation.I do not know english language as well as Marina therefore I translate with the dictionary.In russian the sense and beauty of a phrase depends on a word order in the offer, it means that not changing words it is possible to change sense, it is difficult for translating. Here also I apologize for my english
Your English is understandable, suvorovevgeniy. There is no need to apologize. It is interesting that in Russian, the meaning of a sentence may be changed by rearranging the same words. This is also true in English in many cases, and the arrangement of the words can also greatly affect whether we perceive it to be beautiful poetry or mere information. It is good to hear from you. Thanks for joining us.
I vote for mango, or, maybe, guave depending on the day. Then there is also unfiltered apple–a very juicy juice (also fun to say).
Trying to find ‘not made from concentrate’ in the U.S. is hard but can be done; otherwise, it’s like trying to blow up a balloon all over again and the poor juice gets tired.
i want to request the word cannabis as one of the words you use next.
