Whats with the vinyl popcorn noise at the beginning of this one? Lol she almost had me with her story this time. I almost choked on a carrot laughing at hotforprofits one time.
For some reason… I can post on any other thread except the Feisty thread…. I’m logged in everywhere, except on the Feisty thread it says I must be logged in to post. Yet, here I am posting. I posted on Sisyphean thread, and then went to Feisty and could not post there. Then posted on Skinny Dip and went back to Feisty and could not post there…… that happens sometimes, and I thought I’d point it out in case others had the same issue.
The website added some kind of sophisticated cookie thing that is supposed to protect everyone… but the result it that you may need to clear out your cookies for anything hotforwords.com related.
Can you try that and then let me know if it helps?
This problem has gone on for a while. It usually simply requires some time. Like I didn’t even clear out cookies, but clicked around and checked my yahoo mail and stuff. When I came back, I could post. It’s puzzling.
I had that problem when I first arrived, being able to post everywhere except the latest thread. I tried various things and eventually discovered that if I changed my browser connection(in Firefox 3) from ‘manually select a proxy server’ to ‘no proxy server’ it works if I sign in again, even if I change it back later. I’m not sure exactly why that should effect only one thread. And it probably means hotforwords has infected my computer, but hey, she already has my soul, so what the hell?
One time I choked on a soy wrap while eating a piece of sushi. It got caught in the back of my throat and I couldn’t cough it out. So I had to use my fingers to reach back there and yank it out. Irritated my throat all night.
And this part isn’t a vegetable or exactly choking, but recently I had an incedent while eating a white peach. Before I had a chance to swallow what I was chewing, I laughed at a joke and it went up my nose. It’s not a pleasant feeling, it is kinda of similar to getting water up your nose, but a little bit more acidic. It took me over an hour before I could completely blow it out of my nose. The biggest chunk of peach was about 3/4 of a cubic inch. I know, it’s disgusting.
Er, teacher, isn’t the word “hense” actually “hence”? For your homework, and for our entertainment and enlightenment, might you tell us where the word “hence” comes from? Mmmmm? Please?
I choked on a carrot and i am not telling you how that happened okay I will tell you I was talking to my mom and I AM A VEGGIE PERSON I took a
peice of carrot and and bit it and my sisy was playing a joke and I started to lagh so hard I choked and fell on the ground
LMFAWO; you yahoos are a trip! Now to set the record straight; 1: I’m a retired Web Master living in Paradise in the South Pacific. I use a Mac Server and a T3 wireless broadband ramp to the net. 2: Spend most of my time on the net’s largest 3D Virtual World designing for fun, speculating on virtual land for profit. When I’m not there I’m in another social networking site that is a Virtual Bar; making new friends & entertaining old ones with Vlogs. 3: I repost Marina’s Hot For Words there for the past two months, every day for entertainment purposes solely. I became a member here to be a Critic, which apparently her viewership’s skin is too thin to tolerate. She hasn’t asked me to leave or complained on my words here! So get a life Kiddies & Suck it Up! Aloha~
I think your sage is needed here. A few 24 hours-a-dayers are taking over this site as they comment on everything, always. They call themselves the ‘minions’ and all of this, in a socialogical way, is absolutely fascinating…but also from a business perspective I am extraordinarily interested in how to manage and/prevent such stuff, I have some strong ideas on ways if you have any ideas you’d like to share I’m all ears…
okay4now Mahalo for the Heads Up on the, what did you call them. ‘Minions’! I was making my bones on the net when these Minions were learning which way to wipe. They had better clear a path, for the Big Cat is on the prowl here now & as anyone has seen I won’t tolerate any sh*t on my watch. I always can give better than I get but cross me at your mortal peril. 24/7 would make them hackers or unemployed slackers either way they’re no threat & if they’re the latter, they won’t be here long. It take money to access the net & when that runs out they’ll be history out looking for a job or panhandling on the corner for food. Look for all intents & purposes this is a discussion thread; unless your in the computer or software business would you care from a business perspective? The problem wouldn’t exist in those two cases. This site has turned into a Social Networking meeting ground; while I don’t think that was Marina’s intentions at the onset. Like many of us web publishers, she was seeking content for her HFW Videos! Aloha~
Yeah, creating a private (members only) site & trying to consider how to theme & set a discussion thread type atmosphere without an active ‘cop’, and I agree it would not be the same issue as here but I won’t stand for any of it and I could see how it could develop, even on a small scale, as friendships turn into some cliche of the teenage years–and it is based on a professional trade so the problem would be different but in creating a positive freeflow area that is welcoming I see a big benefit & victory. I trust Marina will get ahold of it at HFW, (she has massive volume feeding into this site from youtube) and it’s painful to watch it being so actively chased away by future panhandlers…cheers!
pedantickarl Congrats you can read & write emails but can you do more than play with your hands? Again you really believe she built this site & services it Duh if she’s as smart business person as I believe she is; she has a team of IT professionals working for her! An it takes a team to keep a site up 24/7 unless its your Blog. What do you know of my background? Are you retired young, well before retirement age from making a fortune on the net? I am & did & now live in the South Pacific on an Atoll! Where do you live? Aloha~
Hi whitebyrd,
Thank you for your reply, but you still didn’t apologize to Marina. You may be all you say, but humble and civil isn’t one of your attributes.
whitebyrd, you are correct… my website is hosted on my own server that is maintained by the hosting company… but it still requires me alerting them to problems when they happen.. and the only thing they fix are core computers functions… so any time to encounter issues, I appreciate the heads up!
Now, don’t go getting into arguments here… there have been some really nasty people that have made their way over here from YouTube… and I think people here are trying to keep it a little more civil than what you find on YouTube.. so that may be why there might be an overreaction at times to what people say!
The people here are actually pretty cool.. so please give them a chance! I think you can have some fun here!
I left you a nice video response Marina but I don’t see it so I suppose your site doesn’t allow such things! But I’m sure you saw it. You know when I was doing web site design & virtual web hosting & e-commerce; I would use every browser that was available to see how my builds appeared on all platforms. It was much easier to tweak the code before I uploaded, than to have the client emailing me with a complaint. From what you’ve related to me, I suspect a line of code is the guilty errant between HFW & YT! Have your programmer clean up the code & I bet these problems will cease to exist. Aloha~
Been with Apple since the Lisa, even did telephone tech support for one of the larger Mac resellers. I think I need to qualify one thing, my server is the next to the last model Apple made using the Motorolla processors. They run extremely fast & Hot (this is why Apple switched to the Intel chip) but I have two in my server & they both have their own water jacket to keep them cool like your car has a radiator to keep it cool. I’m a tie-dyed in the wool mac man (not many of us left) since the Intel inside happened. I won’t buy a new mac now; the intel makes too many math errors for my tastes. I buy old mac & upgrade them to my specs & eat Intel macs & pcs for breakfast! Aloha~
Aloha pennsyltucky9 Are you Anal Retentive or do you always keep you head up your ass? I f you paid to be a member here then your a Smuck too!
I don’t think Playboy or TopMusic are small potatoes roadrunrnch but Hot for Words can take the heat or it’s time to get out of the kitchen! Besides who said I hated Hot For Words or Marina for that matter? Not Me! Are you people all so small minded that you can’t tell the difference between Hate & a Constructive Critic? Or is it your all just Hot For Marina; go take a cold shower! Aloha~
whitebyrd, God Knows Marina is performing exceptional, and someones wanting to assign blame, have to realize that some things are just not within our abilities to negotiate…………..
I need the answer to this, teacher, it’s driving me bananas [oops]!
Here it is:
When you have had a good time, a wonderful time doing something [like breakfast at the Blujam?]…
then it may be said that you have had a whale of a time.
A WHALE OF A TIME ?
What does a whale have to do with this? If it’s the whale who swallowed people, it doesn’t sound like fun. Where is this whale, anyway? Was there a whale-sighting somewhere, I mean, a sighting of a very very special whale? Well, what did they see that was so special with this whale? Why did this warrant bringing his name, and this very idea, into eternity? Enshrined in language just ‘cos he’s a lousy fish? I don’t think so! It’s also not fun to be caught in a whaling ship, it’s not fun to be burned for heat and oil, and it’s certainly no fun to sacrifice body parts for the fertility rites of another species!
I have a word that I’d be interested in knowing the origin of: stymie, as in to hinder the progress of something.
Also, the caption for the video uses the word ‘hense’ is this an Americanism? or just a spelling mistake? I only ask because I’ve just finished watching the latest Teacher’s Tip which promotes a grammar and spelling checker, then I saw this caption – it made me chuckle.
I have never risked to choke with vegetables but when i was four years old, i was on the mountains with my father far from everything and from everyone and i was going to die choked by a plum stone…my father managed to save me at the very last possible moment with the force of despair… i was blue almost lifeless,i looked death into her eyes…but thanks God i’m still here now.
Hey, melika
I know you are in Fla. What server are you receiving this video from?
Check the status bar of your browser.
In So Calif the video is coming from: v18.cache.googlevideo.com
The HQ video is coming from 74.125.15.155
Thanks melika for the letting me know the server you are getting this video from. I did some research and the v18… server has issues that affect other YT users’ videos as well. Good stuff. Thanks.
Yes subverse, I am also having the problem in So. Calif – sporadically.
It is mainly YouTube issue, and Internet high packet losses in certain areas don’t help. Besides that, Anaheim has a router out of commission.
I just sent another message to YouTube about this problem. Their Help system is very deficient and it appears they are trying to fix that also.
Marina,
Have you stopped commenting with CoComments? The CandyKirby post has been there for a really long time.
Have you heard that BLOGTV.com The RUSSIA SITE IS UP AND RUNNING. How cool would it be for you to do a spot, Where you were the go between and teacher . People learning about each other though you.
OK.. couple things… I made it so that the “noobs” all get random monster avatars if they haven’t chosen one for themselves. Do you guys LIKE that.. or do you prefer the generic icon that forces people to go an get a gravatar?
ALSO.. I made the login button take you back to where you were and not the dashboard.
Let me know your thoughts on both of these things.. does the login thing work like before and generic icons or random monster icons?
I like the idea. No more looking at a blank avatar. Can you set it up to where if we go to a personal site that someone left in a reply it will bring us back to the same comment when we hit the return button?.
It randomly assigns a monster is you don’t have a gravatar. This way, maybe it will still force someone to go and get a gravatar. Even thought it randomly assigns a monster.. that monster sticks with the person until he gets a gravatar… http://www.splitbrain.org/projects/monsterid
The dashboard thing was only a problem for me a few times. I’ve been clicking on the “you must logged in to leave a comment” at the top of the comments and never had a problem, so, all good here. I’m glad you explained to us you’re now giving the new folks a avatar…I was begining to think a whole class of school kids went to a avatar site and pillaged it for everything it was worth!! …I’m fine with it.
Generic Icons, and get a dashboard link, it is anoying to jump through all pages.
I think when you login you start at the page you are atm, then go free.
every time i come back i have to log back in again…
pisser…IMO…
as for the avatars, *shrug*…maybe it will help newbies feel like they fit in, but they also would be less likely to take advantage of gravatar…and be seen at other sites…
I was going through my horoscope online and it said: Meanwhile, the Sun’s quincunx to Neptune creates a slippery slope of tough decisions. So I was wondering what is a “quincunx”.
I know you already have a lot of words in the making to do, but could you consider breakfast as in the morning meal. Does it come from break fast or to take a break first thing in the morning.
capman911, breakfast , lets not be destructive here, break= to stop something, fast= fast is a period of time between the last meal of the day and the first meal of the new day.
Marina – I think you should have a separate site on words relating to vampires. Think of it: Hot for Vampires. Just he name is very evocative, even if you aren’t hot for vampires and I assume you are not. But they are very trendy right now. I have no idea why.
I agree with you jcr. My wife and a few other school teachers are trading around a collection of vamprire books all in a secquence like the Harry Potter books. They are waiting for newest one to come out now. I hope they don’t make this into movies, as if we don’t have enough on tv as it is. Do you remember the old soap opera Dark Shadows that came on in the day time. That was a while back for some of us. Nice chatting with you. Talk to you soon.
Mike
I’m rereading The Historian right now. Not bad. And yes, I remember Dark Shadows very well as well as Count Chocula cereal (which they probably still make). What series are you reading?
So I’m new to this, but I am a dyslexic english Major, If that make any sense. Oh well, I love your lessons and I think you really hit the right nerve so to say with your approach. Anyways I am Interested in knowing the origins and some background info on the word “soul”. My Professors aren’t really helping maybe you can. Thank you for you time and consideration. Catch you later Bright eyes.
I was wondering about the origins of ‘awesome’ and ‘awfull’, as they don’t seem to make much sense. Somthing fantastic has some-awe were as something dreadfull is full of awe.
I will logout and see if its still doing it. it always used to go to the profiles page, now its taking to the my account page or as its called the dashboard.
I logged ion and out and in and in again and the software may default to the dashboard now instead of the profiles page. the profiles tab was there eye only had to poke it with my pointy tale to change it.
Hum, go to a lesson and login there, you will stay on the side you are. I don´t like the login link on the right, it pulls you to your account, and you have to open window after window to get to the side you want to.
Thanks my gravatar is up.
When I log in I’m always sent to the dashboard page too. I just figured that was how it worked. Is there another to get to the dashboard page without logging in?
It’s just not the noobs RRR. Mine is doing it too. It used to log in to your profile now it’s the dashboard. No problem though you can still go to her vids from both of them. PEACE MY MAN
Marina I am also getting alot of you have already posted that comment before. When I have’nt posted one like it. I hope you understand what I am trying to say. The site is alot faster.
Mike
Hi, this is Zank. I have an M.A. in Applied Linguistics from the University of Durham (1985) and I never got a satisfactory answer to this one while I was there. Q) what is the origin of the word ’sinesis’. It is a grammatical term used to describe the apparent contradiction in statements like:
‘EveryONE must bring THEIR own textbook.
I am now an EFL teacher in Japan and no student has asked me this, but I would like to know where it came from. BTW this may be unanswerable, but I like your eye-candy approach to etymology. One of my students put me on to you! Be good (and if you can’t be good–be careful )
Hum, I think it is just a botanical code for specific plants, mabe when they match in some attributes or what else. I found a site that holds some botanical code …….(whatever). I think they just gave the name to place them into a class of plant, so there won´t be any background info on the word I think.
There truly are flowers that match to a specific symbol, e.g. Sun or whatever…but I think sinesis is just a code.
If Marina find something she can disabuse us/me.
(hope it´s the right English grammar )
Hum, sinesis…sinensis, the only background info you will get is as I mentioned it in a other comment……no word was spoken without a reason, the only info on thisone is the code I think, “a classification or family for their attributes, or…..whatever”.
I read this word in an article in the now-defunct Mainichi Daily News, one of the English-language newspapers of Japan over 25 years ago. But now I can find no reference at all, except for the plants/green tea. Maybe I was hallucinating. Forget it chaps–sorry to waste your precious time.
Vegetables seem to behave & always go where they should, but I once had a fish bone stuck in my throat. Before the E.R. Dr. got there it went up, into the sinus cavity so I left it, and it stayed…for such an impossibly long period of time I won’t even say it—it’s too unbelievable.
We were at work one day and I got a fish bone stuck in my throat and like you went to the er. The doc looked in there and plucked it right out. That was a good feeling because it was very irritating and kinda scary. Since I was in FD uniform they didn’t charge me. Have a good day.
You were lucky with your Dr., mine was on a date but on call; 1.5 hours later comes in pissed about cutting his date short I sat there trying to breath without constricting.
I owned a restaurant for years and the Fire Department would come in 6, 10, 15 times a week, which as you know is a lot—I loved it. Many times we’d have to wrap and hold their stuff mid. way through their meals…they always kept us in mind too, I had sweatshirts, shirts, shorts, carry bags all with their logos, very cool relationship.
My favorite. Too bad I can not find any in the midwest like the ones in California. How about “turnip”? Where did the phrase, You can’t get blood from a turnip, come from anyway?
i cant watch this vidio, my computers being gay, it goes to the part were your talking about the king artherIII and it cuts off the rest .
anyways, just wanted to let you know and request a word. why are homo sexuals called gay and lesbians
….i only hear huaabaha (or something weird) that aint a language…
The artist is Frank Klepacki and he’s polish…. but that song…..There’s no singing so how could you ask what language that is
in future, please follow the directions

Thanx.
FOOTBALL & SOCCER IS TWO DIFFERENT GAMES; THAT POLL WAS LIKE COMPARING APPLES TO ORANGES, THE ONLY THING THE HAVE IN COMMON IS THEY PLAY WITH THEIR BALLS!
YouTube hosts my videos.. The videos see on my website are hosted and streamed by YouTube… so when YouTube has problems it affects my videos on YouTube as well as on my website.
Very interesting excuse; my only problem with it is it’s only Hot For Words Videos that are affected! Oh the other HFW video that choked was Bluetooth! I sub to about fifty different channels and none of them have ever choked in the year I’ve been on YouTube, with one exception: Hot For Words. Gee do think YouTube is discriminating against Hot for Words? And I have tried again & again on Bluetooth, but not yet on this one!
Oh I went to Gravatar & uploaded my picture; while the picture was just a normal head shot of myself, I did select the “R” rating because I have been on the web since 1980 & know “Shit Happens”! Aloha~
Okay. The accountant said you’ll get a full refund for the charges you paid on these lessons. Sorry for all the time you wasted complaining. Have a better day, whinebyrd. Enjoy your refund check.
It just might be that all the other channels you watch are small time. Marinas is #1 and the watched in the world. She is just overheating the site.
Don’t hate her because She is #1.
Hi whitebyrd,
I hate to disappoint you, but YouTube’s reply to my email confirms that the video problem is on their end. It only affects certain caching servers. Not everyone in the US is affected by the problem as there are many caching servers out there.
conntype: cable/DSL
errormsg: Video jumps to end
known_issue: yes
I think this would be a perfect opportunity for you to apologize to Marina for your arrogant inconsiderate remarks.
By the way, Marina is more technically savvy than you could ever hope to be.
whitebyrd, God Knows Marina is performing exceptional, and someones wanting to assign blame, have to realize that some things are just not within our abilities to negotiate.
Whitebyrd.. sorry that you are having issues with my videos lately.. others seem to be having the same problem, but the only problem is that nothing has changed on my end at all.
I complained to YouTube but their response is that they cannot replicate it. I cannot replicate it on my end either, which is a problem…. as it’s hard to solve the problem when you can’t replicate it… so I don’t know what to do, other than hope that YouTube fixes the problem somehow, by mistake perhaps.
Oh it looks like pedantickarl got even more info.. to do with their caching servers which would make sense that they couldn’t replicate it as they were not using those servers.
I fear choking on pretty much anything. So I have Pnigerophobia?
Could you explain the origin of Tete-a-tete please? The other day I was sat one to one with another in a looooong conversation involving some possible work and after an hour or so I began to think about this words history.
Hi Marina I’d like to request a word “garbage”. We use it very much but where did it came from? Could you tell me and the others what it means??? thanks!
hello marina my name is jay weiner its not a joke it pronounced weener and ive always wondered what it meant if you could tell me that would be awesome.thanx
Hi TongueTwislers, it’s a widespread problem having mainly to do with YouTube and not this site. Also, the Internet is having issues as a whole.
You can go to YouTube and select the HighQuality version of the video and it will play fine as it comes from a different server than the Std version. Also, make sure you have the latest Flash player.
Hi rocknroll_drummer,
Marina did a video called “Three sheets to the wind” which you can find in the Lessons list up above. The video starts out with the word “irony”, then in the middle starts with three sheets to the wind. http://www.hotforwords.com/2007/10/01/three-sheets-to-the-wind/
NICE HUMOR. WHAT ABOUT THE ORGIN OF THE WORD “PIPE DREAM” MY GUESS IS THAT IT WOULD SOMEHOW REFER TO OPIUM DREAMS FROM LONG AGO IN THE DAYS OF OPIUM DENS.
Hi ferasbayern,
Marina means she is my future ex-girlfriend.
Just kidding, you’ll see what I mean when you watch this video.
Marina explains the meaning of her first name at 1:31 min.
It’s in the “Honeymoon Pt2 / Happy Holidays” video. http://www.hotforwords.com/2007/12/23/happy-holidays/
I love you hot for words and your pretty hot and your cute, but I love your videos and also can you please help me with th word “love” please helpppppppppp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rich Harden is from my home town, come on now… if Lou’s team doesn’t choke, you may as well engrave the Cubs names on the World Series Trophy, right?
Two B.C. Aces wins any baseball card game.
Exactly, I think the N.L. Central race is gonna go down the wire. We play 10 more against Milwaukee and about 9 more against St. Louis. At this point there’s no way we’ll pull a 2007 N.Y. Mets. They pulled the ol chokola last year,lol
Whats the origin of the word “Dilly-Dally”? I don’t really understand how it relates to wasting time. I’m guessing its just another word that originated from college students? Help!
Marina!! Beautiful Marina, I am certain that your heart is not doled out in small measure, just as I am so so certain that you would never be on the dole. We wouldn’t allow it! You are simply too precious.
Oops… oh yeah, I’m here on a mission. A word. Dear teacher, could you please tell us the origin of the word: dole. If you do I would bring you a Dole…. pineapple…
What is the origin of the word babysitter? Is someone called a baby sitter because most of the time while they are watching the baby all the do is sit and keep an eye on it or sit and hold it?
This is a good way to make sure your students are listening to the entire lesson Another interesting one and a good story about Arthur and choking. My mother did always tell me to avoid the spiny middle and called it the “choke” but she was no linguist. A pretty good cook, though!
Another excellent lesson learned. By the way, did you catch “Miss Universe 2008″ last night? Miss Russia came in 3rd runner up I’m sure if you entered as Miss Russia you would have took the questions and the competition (Ms. USA fell again. Ouch)
And for some odd reason I couldn’t seem to find you on the “Byte Me 20 Hottest Girls on the Web” list on E!……WACK!
It appears that Marina’s popularity is causing her website to choke. Maybe she needs to get Geek Squad on the case to investigate. Having lessons cut short like this going to lower the overall IQs of students worldwide… How about a lesson in Russian with some translation for us non-fluent “stupid” <— Word Request – Americans…
I found out that for every advertisement Marina has on her site if we click on them and then click back to her video she gets a percentage of the money from that advertisement. I am not telling anyone to do this but just giving out some info. Most of you probably all ready knows this.
I was warned… “that would be disingeuous…”
That being said, & I’m no expert. Awhile ago a friend of mine ran, & still runs a website. I asked him how he made $$ off his site, he said “If people clicked on the ads. and bought something from that site he received a percentage of the sale. So if the ads’ interest you, click away, but Marina, or whoever is responsable for the ad. content won’t get to accurately guage the response to the ads. if the clicks are just random. So if Marinas site is to be the best it can be, let her know the stuff you’re interested in, with a genuine click or comment etc.
Hey if I’m wrong let me know…
Word Request!
Well I’ve been listening to a lot of rap lately and I’ve heard the word “shawty”. Is it a word or is it based on another word, and what does it mean?
If you go to Her You Tube channel and click on the word videos at the top of the screen under the big Hot For Words the lateast videos will appear. Then click on todays video and run it in watch in high resolution. It should work then. Try that and see if it works.
Thanks Cap, I might give that a try. I would hope this is just a fluke and in the future videos will work here as well. We shouldn’t have to go through a convoluted set of instructions to view them. Webmaster take note.
I was trying to figure out how to do a link back to another comment on another site. The only way was to download FireFox 3.0 like you said. I figured it out so now I can go back to a previous video and link a comment from there to a new video. Thanks for the Firefox idea.
,,, ey uerita que onda , I was in into this flick, half way through it the word “plethora” came up between the dialog, – pues ya saves – , should you decide to take up on this query , it would be another addition to the vocab’s rendition … … sobres pues … have funn & C_YE !!

nope, never choked on a veggie, although i did once stick a couple of navy beans up my nose…gawd knows why – i think i was 5 or 6, and a dang cute lil’ sprout…
anyway, my parents had to take me to the doctor to get the beans out…
i’m sure i impressed the doctor with my legumosity…
As Pagedoll put it on the cunundrum video. Theres a name for things shooting out your nose due to laughter, Acute Spontaneous Nasal Reflex or an “asner” HA
No not Ed. I just got that one. I am a little slow, but give me time I’ll come around. Pagedoll said he really heard that somewhere. I looked it up and found bits and pieces on the article.
Man UTube does has a video for anything you can think of.
Wasn’t there a song about that? Something about never put beans in your ear even though you put them up your nose instead?It must have been a trend because I remember our famlly doctor having to extract beans from someone’s nose but it wasn’t anyone related to us, just a neighbor down the street.
My dad nearly choked when he was asleep and my sibling and I decided to see if we could shoot “baskets” using his open mouth for the hoop and cheerios for the “basketball”. Great game until one of us actually hit the “basket” and he woke up. Not a happy ending to that story.
They were great for us, just not so much for my Dad that day but we got a quick lesson on throat and lung anatomy and hiding the Cheerios box very quickly! However, our guilty faces did us in. I can NOT believe I shared this here. I still feel guilty about that day.
I could have killed my father playing Cheerios basketball. With a little revision, that could almost be the first line of a country song….or even a poem. Or both.
I can’t tell but the pot looks like my Sister’s Nursery.. Marina must shop at a major supermarket. Or maybe she has a good Man that is putting flowers around her place. Surrounding Her flat with beauty, Or She just doesn’t what to hear about the dead plant?
Your sure that her plant is dead. I might have to agree with you. She hid that other one with a candle then todays plant. Show your sister a picture of her and maybe if she buys plants there she will come in to buy some more. You never know Could get lucky

[Middle English don, from Old English dōn; see dhē- in Indo-European roots.]
No James it’s not the first.
I was trying not post the whole thing and make a mess and Marinas site. Thus the 1 and the 1a. But lostforwords required proof and so …….There you go.
.Of course it’s not the first and I never said it was the most used or even the best example of Do’s use. This all stems from a cute little thing Marina said; I’ll be DOING teachers pet shortly. And my remark: I never knew how important being the pet was .( paraphrasing ) But that is all it was.
AAAUGH! Damnit, another glitch! Last time I logged on, it wouldn’t allow me to write any comments. And now I can’t play this video past King Arthur III.
Anyway, Marina, I wanted to know that with so many people logging in on your website, requesting more words than you can post. How do you pick and choose the words? Is that part of the reason why you’re writing a book, so we can find out for ourselves?
hi, MARINA!
have a nice day, im wondering! according to your last video about ak-47 origin, how about the origin of M-16? where it came from, thanks,… mwah,….
Hey Marina. I just discovered my marina manager (Emma) is Russian. I walked up to her today to pay on my moorage and she was talking to one of her maintenance guys in what sounded like Russian. I asked her what language she was speaking and she said Russian. So I had to mention you and your blog. Her comment was, “Now everybody is doing something on the internet now days.” Then she asked me if you where a true Russian (whatever that means). I said you where born in Russia and now living in LA, and you speak very fluently….
Hi Captn, I wonder if Emma was referring to the people of the former USSR states as not being true Russians; e.g. Ukraine, Latvia, etc.
Maybe Marina can elaborate….
Nice place you got there!
Lake and Park Street buildings
look like stretches of Los Olas Blvd
where I live. Pretty posh digs, dude.
With all the clubs and bars here,
there seem to be many Russian
mafia wannabe-types carousing
the scene. Whether or not they
are “real” Russians, I couldn’t
say. lostforwords has that
“big brother” look in his eye – LOL!
Just an opinion, he should be
doing his best “bedroom” eye.
Hey Doug, You like the digs! Well you have seen nothing yet. Take a look at a href=”http://www.flickr.com/photos/14528708@N00/sets/72157606061675695/”>my photos.
Marina, I’ve noticed that a lot of your lessons lately seem to focus on food, drinks, vampires, etc. Might our dear teacher have a bit of an oral fixation? (Please say yes, please say yes, please say yes!)
Here’s something for you to put in your pipe and smoke – how did the word “pipe” originate?
Hotter than Madonna and Britany!
Shakira’s got the pipes and the
lizard moves. I wish I could spend
a couple days walking Marina
through some dance steps. I’d
even teach her the lizard moves
Boys, get your ballroom dance
lessons – works everytime!
cha cha cha!
Shakira and Marina would be amazing. Not Rihanna, I can’t stick her she looks like a bulldog chewing a wasp and always sings like she is having an orgasm. Cant stick her,.
…another hit and run?
I think you’re making up this one.
Getting revenge for King Arthur III?
i have heard fancy pants,
sassy – not the same as sass
is it?
Marina, how do you upload one video to youtube and one to this website. Do you have 2 tabs and upload them at the same time, also how long do they take roughly? Thanks
I’ve never choke on a vegetable!!If I did, I wouldn’t be here now would I? Fruit on the other hand…
i have chocked on under cooked onion.

Whats with the vinyl popcorn noise at the beginning of this one? Lol she almost had me with her story this time. I almost choked on a carrot laughing at hotforprofits one time.

For some reason… I can post on any other thread except the Feisty thread…. I’m logged in everywhere, except on the Feisty thread it says I must be logged in to post. Yet, here I am posting. I posted on Sisyphean thread, and then went to Feisty and could not post there. Then posted on Skinny Dip and went back to Feisty and could not post there…… that happens sometimes, and I thought I’d point it out in case others had the same issue.
You are lovely and talented as always, Marina.
The website added some kind of sophisticated cookie thing that is supposed to protect everyone… but the result it that you may need to clear out your cookies for anything hotforwords.com related.
Can you try that and then let me know if it helps?
This problem has gone on for a while. It usually simply requires some time. Like I didn’t even clear out cookies, but clicked around and checked my yahoo mail and stuff. When I came back, I could post. It’s puzzling.
protect from what? how?
go to bitchassness and preach…aLx…[relentlessness]…God bless the children and good luck brother.
I had that problem when I first arrived, being able to post everywhere except the latest thread. I tried various things and eventually discovered that if I changed my browser connection(in Firefox 3) from ‘manually select a proxy server’ to ‘no proxy server’ it works if I sign in again, even if I change it back later. I’m not sure exactly why that should effect only one thread. And it probably means hotforwords has infected my computer, but hey, she already has my soul, so what the hell?
One time I choked on a soy wrap while eating a piece of sushi. It got caught in the back of my throat and I couldn’t cough it out. So I had to use my fingers to reach back there and yank it out. Irritated my throat all night.
And this part isn’t a vegetable or exactly choking, but recently I had an incedent while eating a white peach. Before I had a chance to swallow what I was chewing, I laughed at a joke and it went up my nose. It’s not a pleasant feeling, it is kinda of similar to getting water up your nose, but a little bit more acidic. It took me over an hour before I could completely blow it out of my nose. The biggest chunk of peach was about 3/4 of a cubic inch. I know, it’s disgusting.
Er, teacher, isn’t the word “hense” actually “hence”? For your homework, and for our entertainment and enlightenment, might you tell us where the word “hence” comes from? Mmmmm? Please?
Can you give us any . . . hints?
I choked on a carrot and i am not telling you how that happened okay I will tell you I was talking to my mom and I AM A VEGGIE PERSON I took a
peice of carrot and and bit it and my sisy was playing a joke and I started to lagh so hard I choked and fell on the ground
Ah. that was amusing thank you

ALOHA~ MARINA
SOMETIMES YOU JUST TRY TO HARD!
LMFAWO; you yahoos are a trip! Now to set the record straight; 1: I’m a retired Web Master living in Paradise in the South Pacific. I use a Mac Server and a T3 wireless broadband ramp to the net. 2: Spend most of my time on the net’s largest 3D Virtual World designing for fun, speculating on virtual land for profit. When I’m not there I’m in another social networking site that is a Virtual Bar; making new friends & entertaining old ones with Vlogs. 3: I repost Marina’s Hot For Words there for the past two months, every day for entertainment purposes solely. I became a member here to be a Critic, which apparently her viewership’s skin is too thin to tolerate. She hasn’t asked me to leave or complained on my words here! So get a life Kiddies & Suck it Up! Aloha~
I think your sage is needed here. A few 24 hours-a-dayers are taking over this site as they comment on everything, always. They call themselves the ‘minions’ and all of this, in a socialogical way, is absolutely fascinating…but also from a business perspective I am extraordinarily interested in how to manage and/prevent such stuff, I have some strong ideas on ways if you have any ideas you’d like to share I’m all ears…
okay4now Mahalo for the Heads Up on the, what did you call them. ‘Minions’! I was making my bones on the net when these Minions were learning which way to wipe. They had better clear a path, for the Big Cat is on the prowl here now & as anyone has seen I won’t tolerate any sh*t on my watch. I always can give better than I get but cross me at your mortal peril. 24/7 would make them hackers or unemployed slackers either way they’re no threat & if they’re the latter, they won’t be here long. It take money to access the net & when that runs out they’ll be history out looking for a job or panhandling on the corner for food. Look for all intents & purposes this is a discussion thread; unless your in the computer or software business would you care from a business perspective? The problem wouldn’t exist in those two cases. This site has turned into a Social Networking meeting ground; while I don’t think that was Marina’s intentions at the onset. Like many of us web publishers, she was seeking content for her HFW Videos! Aloha~
Yeah, creating a private (members only) site & trying to consider how to theme & set a discussion thread type atmosphere without an active ‘cop’, and I agree it would not be the same issue as here but I won’t stand for any of it and I could see how it could develop, even on a small scale, as friendships turn into some cliche of the teenage years–and it is based on a professional trade so the problem would be different but in creating a positive freeflow area that is welcoming I see a big benefit & victory. I trust Marina will get ahold of it at HFW, (she has massive volume feeding into this site from youtube) and it’s painful to watch it being so actively chased away by future panhandlers…cheers!
Here is the best word ever found in a dictionary:
calipigeon
YES!!! It is a real word. Please look it up and you will be enlightened!
..DUUUUDE !! nice but I think you misspelled it …
…. callipygian …. gettcha game right pleya …
Marina,
I would love for you to investigate the meaning of the words. Caddy Wompus.
Thank You,
Random Darkness
Aloha stokesjrj1; take your hand out of your pocket & tell her not me! I don’t award points for gushing, but maybe she does!
whitebyrd, If I Had my hand in my pocket i wouldn’t be typing this while using them. I don’t need your points.
Be sides points for what? Do you think I am a gambler or something?
I would like to know the history behind the phrase ‘fly by night’
I have nothing to apologize for, never said I was humble or civil & of course you can Troll, Your are one! Aloha~
Hi Marina,
I’ve got a worthy mission for hotforwords. What is the origin of the phrase: “A penny for your thoughts?”
I’d love to hear your “two cents” on the matter.
pedantickarl Congrats you can read & write emails but can you do more than play with your hands? Again you really believe she built this site & services it Duh if she’s as smart business person as I believe she is; she has a team of IT professionals working for her! An it takes a team to keep a site up 24/7 unless its your Blog. What do you know of my background? Are you retired young, well before retirement age from making a fortune on the net? I am & did & now live in the South Pacific on an Atoll! Where do you live? Aloha~
Hi whitebyrd,
Thank you for your reply, but you still didn’t apologize to Marina. You may be all you say, but humble and civil isn’t one of your attributes.
I call Troll!
whitebyrd, you are correct… my website is hosted on my own server that is maintained by the hosting company… but it still requires me alerting them to problems when they happen.. and the only thing they fix are core computers functions… so any time to encounter issues, I appreciate the heads up!
Now, don’t go getting into arguments here… there have been some really nasty people that have made their way over here from YouTube… and I think people here are trying to keep it a little more civil than what you find on YouTube.. so that may be why there might be an overreaction at times to what people say!
The people here are actually pretty cool.. so please give them a chance! I think you can have some fun here!
I left you a nice video response Marina but I don’t see it so I suppose your site doesn’t allow such things! But I’m sure you saw it. You know when I was doing web site design & virtual web hosting & e-commerce; I would use every browser that was available to see how my builds appeared on all platforms. It was much easier to tweak the code before I uploaded, than to have the client emailing me with a complaint. From what you’ve related to me, I suspect a line of code is the guilty errant between HFW & YT! Have your programmer clean up the code & I bet these problems will cease to exist. Aloha~
By the way.. glad to see that you are a mac guy! I am mac all the way as well!! So much better than pc!!
I am a pc guy.. People here are pretty cool. Such as myself lol I’m only cool right now because I am sitting infront of a fan
Been with Apple since the Lisa, even did telephone tech support for one of the larger Mac resellers. I think I need to qualify one thing, my server is the next to the last model Apple made using the Motorolla processors. They run extremely fast & Hot (this is why Apple switched to the Intel chip) but I have two in my server & they both have their own water jacket to keep them cool like your car has a radiator to keep it cool. I’m a tie-dyed in the wool mac man (not many of us left) since the Intel inside happened. I won’t buy a new mac now; the intel makes too many math errors for my tastes. I buy old mac & upgrade them to my specs & eat Intel macs & pcs for breakfast! Aloha~
Aloha pennsyltucky9 Are you Anal Retentive or do you always keep you head up your ass? I f you paid to be a member here then your a Smuck too!
I don’t think Playboy or TopMusic are small potatoes roadrunrnch but Hot for Words can take the heat or it’s time to get out of the kitchen! Besides who said I hated Hot For Words or Marina for that matter? Not Me! Are you people all so small minded that you can’t tell the difference between Hate & a Constructive Critic? Or is it your all just Hot For Marina; go take a cold shower! Aloha~
whitebyrd, God Knows Marina is performing exceptional, and someones wanting to assign blame, have to realize that some things are just not within our abilities to negotiate…………..
pennsyltucky9, Don,t let this guy speak to you that way. Take up for your self.
I need the answer to this, teacher, it’s driving me bananas [oops]!
Here it is:
When you have had a good time, a wonderful time doing something [like breakfast at the Blujam?]…
then it may be said that you have had a whale of a time.
A WHALE OF A TIME ?
What does a whale have to do with this? If it’s the whale who swallowed people, it doesn’t sound like fun. Where is this whale, anyway? Was there a whale-sighting somewhere, I mean, a sighting of a very very special whale? Well, what did they see that was so special with this whale? Why did this warrant bringing his name, and this very idea, into eternity? Enshrined in language just ‘cos he’s a lousy fish? I don’t think so! It’s also not fun to be caught in a whaling ship, it’s not fun to be burned for heat and oil, and it’s certainly no fun to sacrifice body parts for the fertility rites of another species!
Please help me out, I really could go bananas!
Regards,
Sweet2
Whale done!
I have a word that I’d be interested in knowing the origin of: stymie, as in to hinder the progress of something.
Also, the caption for the video uses the word ‘hense’ is this an Americanism? or just a spelling mistake? I only ask because I’ve just finished watching the latest Teacher’s Tip which promotes a grammar and spelling checker, then I saw this caption – it made me chuckle.
I would like to know where the word kitsch comes from?

Dear Teach,
More to my sumptuous breakfast at Blujam last Friday I have a word request which that delicious meal brought to my mind: flapjacks.
Vsyego Dobrogo, Q
quiggles, I stopped by there to try to meet you but didn’t know who was who… so I missed you! Bummer!
My huge loss! I’m crying. I travel between Seoul/Tokyo & DC a lot. When next I am in LA it would be wonderful if HFW would hold a seminar at Blujam.
Oh how I wish I lived in L.A
aaaahhh, I have to cross the Atlantic to meet you at Blujam, this hurts a lot
HFW on location: coming soon to a city near you…
first stop…Atlanta (well, forty miles south of there, burg called Griffin)…
not as seriously, tho’, maybe take HFW on the road, Marina – vids with some of your fans…
but make it very, very public…
I have never risked to choke with vegetables but when i was four years old, i was on the mountains with my father far from everything and from everyone and i was going to die choked by a plum stone…my father managed to save me at the very last possible moment with the force of despair… i was blue almost lifeless,i looked death into her eyes…but thanks God i’m still here now.
is anyone having a problem to see this video? I mean YouTube is broken
It’s all good on the east coast..
All videos working at this time.
Maybe clear your cache files?
if I knew that means cache files.
Russia in ass, like all time
Hey, melika
I know you are in Fla. What server are you receiving this video from?
Check the status bar of your browser.
In So Calif the video is coming from: v18.cache.googlevideo.com
The HQ video is coming from 74.125.15.155
Thanks melika for the letting me know the server you are getting this video from. I did some research and the v18… server has issues that affect other YT users’ videos as well. Good stuff. Thanks.
Yes subverse, I am also having the problem in So. Calif – sporadically.
It is mainly YouTube issue, and Internet high packet losses in certain areas don’t help. Besides that, Anaheim has a router out of commission.
I just sent another message to YouTube about this problem. Their Help system is very deficient and it appears they are trying to fix that also.
PS
Watch the High Quality version of the video on YouTube. It works.
ok – here’s the dope
bf.vp.video1.google.com <- youtube standard
204.246.232.31 <———– youtube hi res
Ach so! Can you tap into that?
Wy do we call sweaters sweaters? is it because they make you sweat?
Marina,
Have you stopped commenting with CoComments? The CandyKirby post has been there for a really long time.
Have you heard that BLOGTV.com The RUSSIA SITE IS UP AND RUNNING. How cool would it be for you to do a spot, Where you were the go between and teacher . People learning about each other though you.
OK.. couple things… I made it so that the “noobs” all get random monster avatars if they haven’t chosen one for themselves. Do you guys LIKE that.. or do you prefer the generic icon that forces people to go an get a gravatar?
ALSO.. I made the login button take you back to where you were and not the dashboard.
Let me know your thoughts on both of these things.. does the login thing work like before and generic icons or random monster icons?
it’s fine… but how do you get to you’re dashboard now..
WORK WORK WORK! You are so good to the unworthy
o nvm, figured it out.. I clicked my name above the comment box on top.
I like the idea. No more looking at a blank avatar. Can you set it up to where if we go to a personal site that someone left in a reply it will bring us back to the same comment when we hit the return button?.
can you give them a choice
of blue (for guys) and
pink (for the other guys)?
Trouble maker
It randomly assigns a monster is you don’t have a gravatar. This way, maybe it will still force someone to go and get a gravatar. Even thought it randomly assigns a monster.. that monster sticks with the person until he gets a gravatar… http://www.splitbrain.org/projects/monsterid
The dashboard thing was only a problem for me a few times. I’ve been clicking on the “you must logged in to leave a comment” at the top of the comments and never had a problem, so, all good here.
I’m glad you explained to us you’re now giving the new folks a avatar…I was begining to think a whole class of school kids went to a avatar site and pillaged it for everything it was worth!! 
…I’m fine with it.
You also may be glad to know (or not) that I’m about this | | far away from picking up a new iMAC.
pagedoll, iMac kicks SERIOUS butt!!!! You will be SOOOOO happy.. I can GUARANTEE IT
There is just not as much to do with it.
It’s a lot simpler to use. Like playing the Bass, vs. Lead Guitar.
Or mabe, R8 vs B210
what’s with the mac crap? why would you buy an imac?
I like monsters
Generic Icons, and get a dashboard link, it is anoying to jump through all pages.
I think when you login you start at the page you are atm, then go free.
every time i come back i have to log back in again…
pisser…IMO…
as for the avatars, *shrug*…maybe it will help newbies feel like they fit in, but they also would be less likely to take advantage of gravatar…and be seen at other sites…
my 2.5¢…
ok…checking the “Remember Me” box AGAIN seems to have fixed the login problem – i was being logged out everytime i closed the browser…
movin’ on…
I was going through my horoscope online and it said: Meanwhile, the Sun’s quincunx to Neptune creates a slippery slope of tough decisions. So I was wondering what is a “quincunx”.
I know you already have a lot of words in the making to do, but could you consider breakfast as in the morning meal. Does it come from break fast or to take a break first thing in the morning.
yeah.. i tought of that many times but tougth it was someting everyone knew except me :p
capman911, breakfast , lets not be destructive here, break= to stop something, fast= fast is a period of time between the last meal of the day and the first meal of the new day.
I choked on brussel sprouts that is also my word request brussle sprouts
My word is ”SUICIDE”
Ofcourse I’m not going do that
Suicide is the best you’ve got?

Marina – I think you should have a separate site on words relating to vampires. Think of it: Hot for Vampires. Just he name is very evocative, even if you aren’t hot for vampires and I assume you are not. But they are very trendy right now. I have no idea why.
I agree with you jcr. My wife and a few other school teachers are trading around a collection of vamprire books all in a secquence like the Harry Potter books. They are waiting for newest one to come out now. I hope they don’t make this into movies, as if we don’t have enough on tv as it is. Do you remember the old soap opera Dark Shadows that came on in the day time. That was a while back for some of us. Nice chatting with you. Talk to you soon.
Mike
I’m rereading The Historian right now. Not bad. And yes, I remember Dark Shadows very well as well as Count Chocula cereal (which they probably still make). What series are you reading?
It’s Twilight by Stephanie Meyer.
Nice, a German Maintainance announcement. But come on, you know what it means……….Thank you for understanding.
The news made me jump…..don´t do that again
I was wondering about the origins of the word zombie
Hi Marina,
So I’m new to this, but I am a dyslexic english Major, If that make any sense. Oh well, I love your lessons and I think you really hit the right nerve so to say with your approach. Anyways I am Interested in knowing the origins and some background info on the word “soul”. My Professors aren’t really helping maybe you can. Thank you for you time and consideration. Catch you later Bright eyes.
I was wondering about the origins of ‘awesome’ and ‘awfull’, as they don’t seem to make much sense. Somthing fantastic has some-awe were as something dreadfull is full of awe.
Check out this video she already made on both words.

Hi jamesesprott, the Lessons List above shows that it was done.
http://www.hotforwords.com/2007/12/13/awful-and-awesome/
where did we get the word “ass” from?
An ASS is what people called a donkey in olden times. You are saying donkey when you say ass.
Now that avatar is you
test comment
Its working
,Marina when I log in the browser goes too the dashboard?
Hasn’t always done that? I mean, you pretty much only need to log in once in a blue moon.. and it’s always taken me to the dashboard.
It’s just started this behavior. Spooky huh
I will logout and see if its still doing it. it always used to go to the profiles page, now its taking to the my account page or as its called the dashboard.
I just upgraded the website software today stokesjrj1, so maybe that’s a feature of this new version. I’ll look into it.
I logged ion and out and in and in again and the software may default to the dashboard now instead of the profiles page. the profiles tab was there eye only had to poke it with my pointy tale to change it.
Hum, go to a lesson and login there, you will stay on the side you are. I don´t like the login link on the right, it pulls you to your account, and you have to open window after window to get to the side you want to.
stokesjrj1 gets a twofer
Yes she said triplets was more than sh could handle at this time.
sh = she
What a difference! It’s like the web site now run on electricity whereas before it was a mixture of steam and treacle.
Did you down load the turbo edition of this site. It’s in your login page at the top next to logout. It’s both on the dashboard or profile page.
Thanks my gravatar is up.
When I log in I’m always sent to the dashboard page too. I just figured that was how it worked. Is there another to get to the dashboard page without logging in?
Che ‘World Citizen’
Found it, click on my account.
All the nOObs get a pic now?
It’s just not the noobs RRR. Mine is doing it too. It used to log in to your profile now it’s the dashboard. No problem though you can still go to her vids from both of them. PEACE MY MAN
By the way what is your gravatar now. It looks like a penis
thats the northbound end of a southbound buzzard breeder
No RRR it’s not Firefox thats causing the problems. I like Firefox.
Mine is taking me to my dashboard page now too. It used to login to my profile page.
Marina I am also getting alot of you have already posted that comment before. When I have’nt posted one like it. I hope you understand what I am trying to say. The site is alot faster.
Mike
Hope foxfire is not messing you up?
Your avatar is the same on my page. all is good and right.
Thanks to Marinas Diligent work.
Hi, this is Zank. I have an M.A. in Applied Linguistics from the University of Durham (1985) and I never got a satisfactory answer to this one while I was there. Q) what is the origin of the word ’sinesis’. It is a grammatical term used to describe the apparent contradiction in statements like:
)
‘EveryONE must bring THEIR own textbook.
I am now an EFL teacher in Japan and no student has asked me this, but I would like to know where it came from. BTW this may be unanswerable, but I like your eye-candy approach to etymology. One of my students put me on to you! Be good (and if you can’t be good–be careful
Hello, I tried to find something about this word sinesis and just could find it attached to flowers
, is this the sinesis you meant ?
Yeah >> same thing happened to me, flowers or green tea. I must check again .. Maybe I ‘m spelling it wrong. Thanks for trying anyway.
I’ll be back…
Hum, I think it is just a botanical code for specific plants, mabe when they match in some attributes or what else. I found a site that holds some botanical code …….(whatever). I think they just gave the name to place them into a class of plant, so there won´t be any background info on the word I think.
There truly are flowers that match to a specific symbol, e.g. Sun or whatever…but I think sinesis is just a code.
If Marina find something she can disabuse us/me.
)
(hope it´s the right English grammar
Hum, sinesis…sinensis, the only background info you will get is as I mentioned it in a other comment……no word was spoken without a reason, the only info on thisone is the code I think, “a classification or family for their attributes, or…..whatever”.
Stomp me if I´m wrong
I read this word in an article in the now-defunct Mainichi Daily News, one of the English-language newspapers of Japan over 25 years ago. But now I can find no reference at all, except for the plants/green tea. Maybe I was hallucinating. Forget it chaps–sorry to waste your precious time.
I noticed you did research for Booby, but what about boobs? Also, how about the term Chickens coming home to roost…
M
where does the word “metal” come from (metal music)
cool “Firefox” has a grammar checker
Hi Marina,
I know the word hippie comes from hipster which is derived from hip, but where did hip come from? Thanks!
Ponygirl
i think Hippopotamus cause there sow cool
Vegetables seem to behave & always go where they should, but I once had a fish bone stuck in my throat. Before the E.R. Dr. got there it went up, into the sinus cavity so I left it, and it stayed…for such an impossibly long period of time I won’t even say it—it’s too unbelievable.
We were at work one day and I got a fish bone stuck in my throat and like you went to the er. The doc looked in there and plucked it right out. That was a good feeling because it was very irritating and kinda scary. Since I was in FD uniform they didn’t charge me.
Have a good day. 
You were lucky with your Dr., mine was on a date but on call; 1.5 hours later comes in pissed about cutting his date short I sat there trying to breath without constricting.
I owned a restaurant for years and the Fire Department would come in 6, 10, 15 times a week, which as you know is a lot—I loved it. Many times we’d have to wrap and hold their stuff mid. way through their meals…they always kept us in mind too, I had sweatshirts, shirts, shorts, carry bags all with their logos, very cool relationship.
Oh you changed the flower in your room from the single stem one to red one!
I guess she got tired of us picking on her poor little plant. So she up graded to a newer one.
My favorite. Too bad I can not find any in the midwest like the ones in California. How about “turnip”? Where did the phrase, You can’t get blood from a turnip, come from anyway?
I’ve thought of your next assignment: CORNY. Please feel free to be as corny as possible when making the video.
i cant watch this vidio, my computers being gay, it goes to the part were your talking about the king artherIII and it cuts off the rest
.
anyways, just wanted to let you know and request a word. why are homo sexuals called gay and lesbians

Hi Marina, I would like to learn the origin of the word ELATED. I know what it means I’d just like to know where it comes from.

what is the origin of the word automatic…..it has many meanings, but when was originated from??
The root is Greek : AVTO “self” MAT- “mind”.
An AUTOMAT is like a robot “thinking by himself like a humane”.
WELL HOT 4 WORDS CHOKED ON THIS VLOG HERE & ON YOUTUBE 2! ALOHA ps please check your work before releasing them; this isn’t the 1st one!
Not HFW’s fault – read down the page for the intel
IF IT’S POSTED & CHOKES ON BOTH SITES, DUH WHOSE FAULT IS IT AND WHO’S GONNA FIX IT?
FOOTBALL & SOCCER IS TWO DIFFERENT GAMES; THAT POLL WAS LIKE COMPARING APPLES TO ORANGES, THE ONLY THING THE HAVE IN COMMON IS THEY PLAY WITH THEIR BALLS!
I’M A PRE-INTEL MAC & DON’T DO WINDOWS! ALOHA~
whitebyrd, try back at another time .
YouTube hosts my videos.. The videos see on my website are hosted and streamed by YouTube… so when YouTube has problems it affects my videos on YouTube as well as on my website.
Very interesting excuse; my only problem with it is it’s only Hot For Words Videos that are affected! Oh the other HFW video that choked was Bluetooth! I sub to about fifty different channels and none of them have ever choked in the year I’ve been on YouTube, with one exception: Hot For Words. Gee do think YouTube is discriminating against Hot for Words? And I have tried again & again on Bluetooth, but not yet on this one!
Oh I went to Gravatar & uploaded my picture; while the picture was just a normal head shot of myself, I did select the “R” rating because I have been on the web since 1980 & know “Shit Happens”! Aloha~
Okay. The accountant said you’ll get a full refund for the charges you paid on these lessons. Sorry for all the time you wasted complaining. Have a better day, whinebyrd. Enjoy your refund check.
It just might be that all the other channels you watch are small time. Marinas is #1 and the watched in the world. She is just overheating the site.
Don’t hate her because She is #1.
Hi whitebyrd,
I hate to disappoint you, but YouTube’s reply to my email confirms that the video problem is on their end. It only affects certain caching servers. Not everyone in the US is affected by the problem as there are many caching servers out there.
conntype: cable/DSL
errormsg: Video jumps to end
known_issue: yes
I think this would be a perfect opportunity for you to apologize to Marina for your arrogant inconsiderate remarks.
By the way, Marina is more technically savvy than you could ever hope to be.
whitebyrd, God Knows Marina is performing exceptional, and someones wanting to assign blame, have to realize that some things are just not within our abilities to negotiate.
Whitebyrd.. sorry that you are having issues with my videos lately.. others seem to be having the same problem, but the only problem is that nothing has changed on my end at all.
I complained to YouTube but their response is that they cannot replicate it. I cannot replicate it on my end either, which is a problem…. as it’s hard to solve the problem when you can’t replicate it… so I don’t know what to do, other than hope that YouTube fixes the problem somehow, by mistake perhaps.
Oh it looks like pedantickarl got even more info.. to do with their caching servers which would make sense that they couldn’t replicate it as they were not using those servers.
Hi HFW’S,
I fear choking on pretty much anything. So I have Pnigerophobia?
Could you explain the origin of Tete-a-tete please? The other day I was sat one to one with another in a looooong conversation involving some possible work and after an hour or so I began to think about this words history.
Thank you HFW’s, 143always

Dear Hotforwords:
Per your advice I went to the Maxim Radio site to listen to the Hotforwords broadcast.
It was quite enjoyable but it made me wonder why a Radio Station would be called: “MAXIM”
Would you please investigate the word: “MAXIM” and let me know the origin of this word and why a Radio Station would want to me called: “Maxim” Radio?
Thank you
Purrington
Marina, I have another word request for the term “Whip-Lash”. Did it relate to whipping?
Ello Marina, I think you’ll like this word request. I’d like to know the origin of your name “Marina”. Did the world relate to water?
Hi Marina I’d like to request a word “garbage”. We use it very much but where did it came from? Could you tell me and the others what it means??? thanks!

And i don’t know why
TongueTwislers
Hi TongueTwislers, it’s a widespread problem having mainly to do with YouTube and not this site. Also, the Internet is having issues as a whole.
You can go to YouTube and select the HighQuality version of the video and it will play fine as it comes from a different server than the Std version. Also, make sure you have the latest Flash player.
thanks pedantickarl, it turned out that my Flash Player hadn’t been updated for 2 years, so now i’ve updated it everything is fine.
TongueTwislers saying goodbye.
Hey Marina, could you investigate how the term “two sheets to the wind” came to mean “drunk”?
Thanks!
Hi rocknroll_drummer,
Marina did a video called “Three sheets to the wind” which you can find in the Lessons list up above. The video starts out with the word “irony”, then in the middle starts with three sheets to the wind.
http://www.hotforwords.com/2007/10/01/three-sheets-to-the-wind/
hi marina, can you please investigate the word diva or prima donna…thanks!!!!!!
NICE HUMOR. WHAT ABOUT THE ORGIN OF THE WORD “PIPE DREAM” MY GUESS IS THAT IT WOULD SOMEHOW REFER TO OPIUM DREAMS FROM LONG AGO IN THE DAYS OF OPIUM DENS.
What is the origin of succubus?
SUCCUBUS is latin = SUB CUBARE “under lying” like in IN CUBATIO “in lying”.

Hi ferasbayern,

It’s in the “Honeymoon Pt2 / Happy Holidays” video.
http://www.hotforwords.com/2007/12/23/happy-holidays/
In Rissian it means sea scape.
Where does the word cockpit come from?

Hi Marina
Whats the origin of the word “Dilly-Dally”? I don’t really understand how it relates to wasting time. I’m guessing its just another word that originated from college students? Help!
Marina!! Beautiful Marina, I am certain that your heart is not doled out in small measure, just as I am so so certain that you would never be on the dole. We wouldn’t allow it! You are simply too precious.
Oops… oh yeah, I’m here on a mission. A word. Dear teacher, could you please tell us the origin of the word: dole. If you do I would bring you a Dole…. pineapple…
pineapple? do you like B-52’s?
“and then I’m gonna kiss your pineapple”

What is the origin of the word babysitter? Is someone called a baby sitter because most of the time while they are watching the baby all the do is sit and keep an eye on it or sit and hold it?
This is a good way to make sure your students are listening to the entire lesson
Another interesting one and a good story about Arthur and choking. My mother did always tell me to avoid the spiny middle and called it the “choke” but she was no linguist. A pretty good cook, though!
Another excellent lesson learned. By the way, did you catch “Miss Universe 2008″ last night? Miss Russia came in 3rd runner up
I’m sure if you entered as Miss Russia you would have took the questions and the competition

A word that I like and am curious as to where its origins are is the word ‘vex’. So I’d like to make that my request, where the word vex came from.
Thanks!
It appears that Marina’s popularity is causing her website to choke. Maybe she needs to get Geek Squad on the case to investigate. Having lessons cut short like this going to lower the overall IQs of students worldwide… How about a lesson in Russian with some translation for us non-fluent “stupid” <— Word Request – Americans…
I found out that for every advertisement Marina has on her site if we click on them and then click back to her video she gets a percentage of the money from that advertisement. I am not telling anyone to do this but just giving out some info. Most of you probably all ready knows this.
Nickels add up!
thanks for the intel
Good to know!
I was warned… “that would be disingeuous…”
That being said, & I’m no expert. Awhile ago a friend of mine ran, & still runs a website. I asked him how he made $$ off his site, he said “If people clicked on the ads. and bought something from that site he received a percentage of the sale. So if the ads’ interest you, click away, but Marina, or whoever is responsable for the ad. content won’t get to accurately guage the response to the ads. if the clicks are just random. So if Marinas site is to be the best it can be, let her know the stuff you’re interested in, with a genuine click or comment etc.
Hey if I’m wrong let me know…
I thought “disingenuous” looked right yesterday, lost an “n” overnight.

The Video cuts out at 1:41 on the site… plays all the way thru on Youtube 2:30. Choked on Salad once… a mixture of vegies, dressing, and condiments.
Your sister blew the whistle on ya huh? Well Marina I like your version better!
I can’t get it to play here or on YouTube after the first minute. Class dismissed early!!!!!
If you go to Her You Tube channel and click on the word videos at the top of the screen under the big Hot For Words the lateast videos will appear. Then click on todays video and run it in watch in high resolution. It should work then. Try that and see if it works.
Thanks Cap, I might give that a try. I would hope this is just a fluke and in the future videos will work here as well. We shouldn’t have to go through a convoluted set of instructions to view them. Webmaster take note.

I was trying to figure out how to do a link back to another comment on another site. The only way was to download FireFox 3.0 like you said. I figured it out so now I can go back to a previous video and link a comment from there to a new video. Thanks for the Firefox idea.
Hope it work well for you

Yeah, I had issues with this video, couldn’t see it all until i watched it on YouTube directly in High Quality…
I hate artichokes EXCEPT for Applebee’s Spinach and Artichoke dip appetizer. Ship all the artichokes to Applebees!
If you go to Her You Tube channel and click on the word videos at the top of the screen under the big Hot For Words the lateast videos will appear. Then click on todays video and run it in watch in high resolution. It should work then.
Yep – the high res version works…
Now you can do the homework or be paddled by our teacher. She only uses her hand.
Your Video isn’t working right. On here or on Youtube!
Yup. We ain’t workin. See how bad my language is when I can’t get my new word for the day in?
Look at my comment two up from yours. Maybe you can get it to work this way.
Stops at 0:52…
nope, never choked on a veggie, although i did once stick a couple of navy beans up my nose…gawd knows why – i think i was 5 or 6, and a dang cute lil’ sprout…
anyway, my parents had to take me to the doctor to get the beans out…
i’m sure i impressed the doctor with my legumosity…
Please don’t tell us that you put a gerbal somewhere else
Gerbil up my arse?…no…
gawd, there’s a vid for everything nowadays…
Magic Beans! LOL
you made me laugh
did he make you turn
your head and cough?
nope…tweezerd me…and the beans came out a might bloody…
so far my boy has not followed his daddy’s stuffin’ ways…
As Pagedoll put it on the cunundrum video. Theres a name for things shooting out your nose due to laughter, Acute Spontaneous Nasal Reflex or an “asner” HA
Ed?
No not Ed. I just got that one. I am a little slow, but give me time I’ll come around. Pagedoll said he really heard that somewhere. I looked it up and found bits and pieces on the article.
Man UTube does has a video for anything you can think of.
Wasn’t there a song about that? Something about never put beans in your ear even though you put them up your nose instead?It must have been a trend because I remember our famlly doctor having to extract beans from someone’s nose but it wasn’t anyone related to us, just a neighbor down the street.
My dad nearly choked when he was asleep and my sibling and I decided to see if we could shoot “baskets” using his open mouth for the hoop and cheerios for the “basketball”. Great game until one of us actually hit the “basket” and he woke up. Not a happy ending to that story.
OMG! I didn’t mean to iimply that he choked to death or anything. But we did get in trouble. Big trouble!
LMAO! Game on!
So you were a little imp like the rest of us when you were young.
Cheerios are supposed to be good for ya. 
They were great for us, just not so much for my Dad that day but we got a quick lesson on throat and lung anatomy and hiding the Cheerios box very quickly! However, our guilty faces did us in. I can NOT believe I shared this here. I still feel guilty about that day.
I could have killed my father playing Cheerios basketball. With a little revision, that could almost be the first line of a country song….or even a poem. Or both.
could u explain the origin of the word teacher
a TEACHER is a TOKEN maker. The same root as in IN DIC ATIO in Latin.

My guess is that the plant on the table in the video is either an African Violet or miniature Geranium? Am I close?
I can’t tell but the pot looks like my Sister’s Nursery.. Marina must shop at a major supermarket. Or maybe she has a good Man that is putting flowers around her place. Surrounding Her flat with beauty, Or She just doesn’t what to hear about the dead plant?
Your sure that her plant is dead. I might have to agree with you. She hid that other one with a candle then todays plant.
Show your sister a picture of her and maybe if she buys plants there she will come in to buy some more. You never know 
Could get lucky 
She sells to supermarkets all over L.A
I think it’s a marijuana plant, but I don’t know much about marijuana. Just a swag ( Scientific Wild Ass Guess ).
Not a Marijuana plant.
Just a Marina plant.

San Jose, California, United States
Why is the sex related one first?
No James it’s not the first.
I was trying not post the whole thing and make a mess and Marinas site. Thus the 1 and the 1a. But lostforwords required proof and so …….There you go.
.Of course it’s not the first and I never said it was the most used or even the best example of Do’s use. This all stems from a cute little thing Marina said; I’ll be DOING teachers pet shortly. And my remark: I never knew how important being the pet was .( paraphrasing ) But that is all it was.
Zzzzzzzzzsnorezzzzz
i can’t watch if fully
The High Quality video on YouTube works fine.
The Std. Quality video is delivered from the v18 Google cache to me in So Calif, while the HQ video appears to come from another Google server.
wow, thanks!
Anyway, Marina, I wanted to know that with so many people logging in on your website, requesting more words than you can post. How do you pick and choose the words? Is that part of the reason why you’re writing a book, so we can find out for ourselves?
I’ll try this again since my comment seems to have dissappeared. Where does the origin of “Cheapskate” come from?
hi, MARINA!
have a nice day, im wondering! according to your last video about ak-47 origin, how about the origin of M-16? where it came from, thanks,… mwah,….
Hey Marina. I just discovered my marina manager (Emma) is Russian. I walked up to her today to pay on my moorage and she was talking to one of her maintenance guys in what sounded like Russian. I asked her what language she was speaking and she said Russian. So I had to mention you and your blog. Her comment was, “Now everybody is doing something on the internet now days.” Then she asked me if you where a true Russian (whatever that means). I said you where born in Russia and now living in LA, and you speak very fluently….
Must be a lot of phony Russians out there hu?
Hi Captn, I wonder if Emma was referring to the people of the former USSR states as not being true Russians; e.g. Ukraine, Latvia, etc.
Maybe Marina can elaborate….
Russians also tend not to believe that Jews are not Russian if they are born in Russia. Antisemitism is really deep rooted there.
oh god
“tend to believe” I meant…
Nice place you got there!
Lake and Park Street buildings
look like stretches of Los Olas Blvd
where I live. Pretty posh digs, dude.
With all the clubs and bars here,
there seem to be many Russian
mafia wannabe-types carousing
the scene. Whether or not they
are “real” Russians, I couldn’t
say. lostforwords has that
“big brother” look in his eye – LOL!
Just an opinion, he should be
doing his best “bedroom” eye.
Hey Doug, You like the digs! Well you have seen nothing yet. Take a look at a href=”http://www.flickr.com/photos/14528708@N00/sets/72157606061675695/”>my photos.
Lets try this again…
My Photo page…
JUst checked out your photo page, very cool. Now I know what you’ve been doing for the past few days!!…settin’ up that page!
Internet modem troubles…
On my day of being in Marinas video.. 
Marina, I’ve noticed that a lot of your lessons lately seem to focus on food, drinks, vampires, etc. Might our dear teacher have a bit of an oral fixation? (Please say yes, please say yes, please say yes!)
Here’s something for you to put in your pipe and smoke – how did the word “pipe” originate?
Oral fixation. OMG SHAKIRA AND MARINA DOING A VID TOGETHER (I would watch that forever)
Hotter than Madonna and Britany!
Shakira’s got the pipes and the
lizard moves. I wish I could spend
a couple days walking Marina
through some dance steps. I’d
even teach her the lizard moves
Boys, get your ballroom dance
lessons – works everytime!
cha cha cha!
You make me wonder…
but you make me laugh
sick little monkey!
uh… Romans had plumbing
I think they invented pipe.
good request!
Shakira and Marina would be amazing. Not Rihanna, I can’t stick her she looks like a bulldog chewing a wasp and always sings like she is having an orgasm. Cant stick her,.
sassy pants it’s a good expression to explain?:))
…another hit and run?
I think you’re making up this one.
Getting revenge for King Arthur III?
i have heard fancy pants,
sassy – not the same as sass
is it?
Marina, was the person who choked named Arti?
king Arthur (the third)
big apple
Small potatoes.
“don’t mind the maggots” -Mick J.
mate or colega
collegue? perhaps?
Marina, how do you upload one video to youtube and one to this website. Do you have 2 tabs and upload them at the same time, also how long do they take roughly? Thanks
James

Only on youtube I gues…The video on this site is just a link to the one on yt….hence the yt sign on the bottom right of the vid
