Slogan

“Intelligence is sexy” is a slogan… so is “HotForWords, good to the last drop”.. wait a minute.. no.. “HotForWords, 99 and 44/100% Pure”.. no wait… getting confused here.

Anyway, the word slogan has an interresting origin :-)

    What’s the difference between a slogan and a mantra? (I think I found the answer there, but I will not know until Lady Doctor informs me.)

    Be Good!

    The Vikings’ name (Vikings) was actually their battle cry—I think it meant something like “We Win!” We always win when we’re on your team, Doctor! In fact, one of your slogans has always been mine!

    Marina, the login thing happened again. I went to post and it said i was logged in then when i pressed submit, it said i was signed out but my post still went on. But to get back I had to post in the forum then click home then this lesson…

    I had a response to this video all written out thehn my browser locked up and i had to restart my browser and lost the total respose

  17. James says: 123

    Haha at your plugin Marina!

  18. I understand that the man that Governor Blagojevich has appointed to be the new junior senator from Illinois has been comptroller for Illinois three times. Perhaps Marina could research the word Comptroller for us, since it seems to be the route for appointment to the United States Senate.

  19. Hey guys! Haven’t been on the site in a few days… School is demanding.. I can’t wait for college next year :roll: :mrgreen:

    Great job as always, Marina! I’m starting to wonder how big your closet is since you have a different top each time :wink:

    Aaanyway, I have a nice little story to tell. I was in bed last night thinking which words to suggest. I stared at my pillow trying to think of a word, then it hit me: Pillow! And why stop there? Another “P” word: Pajamas! Break out those pajamas with the night caps :mrgreen: Wooot~~

    Homework III :cool:
    “Live long and prosper” Vulcan slogan Star Trek

    • That is a greeting/salutation or parting well-wish (as opposed to a slogan). Wikipedia has a good description (search will key off the phrase). I think of slogans/jingles mostly associated with “mass (political) movements” or “marketing blitzes”, declarative statements or admonishments :
      Yes We Can (I think this one is dumb)
      Just Say No (good one, Nancy, and good movement)
      Whip Inflation Now (Jerry apparently dug acronmys)
      Unleash the Goddess in You (recently featured on Jeopardy… damn that J word is always hard for me to spell. If I was a chick I think this one would mess with my head)
      It’s the real thing (another catchy one)

    Is a STOP sign, a slogan? “Remember the Alamo”……{Semiotics, also called semiotic studies or semiology, is the study of sign processes (semiosis), or signification and communication, signs and symbols, both individually and grouped into sign systems. It includes the study of how meaning is constructed and understood……..from wiki} Tesla – Signs Unplugged ok

    Marina:
    I would like to hear your answer to the origin of the word “Bigot”. I understand it to be of german origin.
    I wish you would get a position with the Dept. of Education. Public schooling needs your help!
    Thank you so much,
    Doug

  25. Hey folks I am new to this site, is any one else having problems with the site loading or put it another way stop loading. Every time I refresh the screen the site keeps on loading and doesn’t stop until I hit the stop button. I rebooted my computer and it only does it on this web page. Has Marina or Jack put out a BOLO on any problems she is having right now?
    Thanks

  26. okay4now says: 111

    Two personal slogans (trying to make the world a better place) :???:
    1. No TV
    2. Believe in something profound, and act on it!
    OOPS, maybe to serious for a Funday.

  27. Here is a logan I made up for the clothing material that wicks away your sweat
    leaving you cool and comfortable:

    If it doesn’t wick, it’s going to stick! (c) thoughtforwords 2009

    After all, who want’s their long underwear climbing up their legs? No one

    I hope the clothing companies see this and pay me for it, then i could do something fun.

  28. The Limbaugh haters will hate this, but Marina lovers could appropriate his slogan: “Having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.”

  29. Liberty or Death: Patrick Henry of the American Revolution

    99.44 % Pure: Ivory Soap?

    Beer that made milwaukee famous: Schlitz

    Good to the last drop: Folgers coffee

    Breakfast of Champions: Wheaties

    ****

    It’s the real thing!

    54 40 or fight!

    A man, a plan, a canal, Panama. (oh that is a palindrome actually as well)

    take a pill to cure your emotional ill. The unspoken slogan of drug companies to sell drugs and convince people they are not in control of their own emotions, it’s all chemical.

    Buy American! (Archaic)

    “Remember the Alamo”
    “Coke is it” Coca-Cola
    “We love baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, and Chevrolet!”
    Here’s my very favorite! (big surprise) “Nothing Runs Like A Deere!” :mrgreen:

    thank you!
    hope you investigate!

  33. pagedoll says: 104

    Its too bad a lesson rating system bogs down the site.
    It would be neat if there were a rating system that used apples instead of star. That way we could give our teacher five apples and a overall rating of 4 1/2 apples would look like four apples with a bite taken out of the fifth. :lol:

    How about a lesson on how much influence Russian has had on the English language. I know that is much more than one word though.

  41. ttt377 says: 95

    How about the saying “Can’t sit for a week”. I know when it is said but where did it originate.

    Hwk: “When it rains it pours.” Morton’s salt
    “Let’s go!” CNN’s new ‘09 slogan
    “Yeah, we got that.” Staples
    “We’ll leave the light on for ya.” <—very ungreen

    • Well, of course they meant an 11-watt compact flourescent light bulb (made with the einsiest-tinsiest possible amount of mercury that will still allow the gas tube to fire), run on electricity generated by solar cells operating on the sunlight falling on the other side of the world, which, upon the end of the bulb’s useful life, will be hand-carried on foot (if you can figure that out) to the nearest recycling center. Is that good enough for you?

    Hello Marina, i would love to know the meaning of the following words, often used in the UK, Ireland and other English speaking countries:

    Scallywag
    Toerag

    Both derogatory terms, though sometimes just cheeky depictations.

  55. What was that at 2:05?

    Allah make you pure. Ameen

  56. Bismillahir-Rahman ir-Raheem:

    I beseech Allah to guide Marina to what is dignified. Ameen

  57. Did anyone catch those slogans in the intro at 0:58?
    “Ran into my Ex…
    Put it in Reverse &
    Hit Him Again”

    The other slogan which wasn’t fully revealed said;
    “It’s better to have loved & lost
    than to live with a psycho
    the rest of your life”

    The third slogan said;
    “If you want breakfast in bed
    sleep in the kitchen.”

    Way too funny. Marina keeps me in stitches all day long. :lol:

  58. Loudfighter says: 77

          • Onlycasperman,

            Money is the god of a lot of people. What do you think they can say to it? Not a lot of course. They are strong with the weak and weak with the strong. They’ll kneel and bow before pretty much anything, provided you put a price on it.

            If you’re not a coward, the only thing I have to tell you is to be true to yourself. Don’t let anyone influence your judgment. Open your eyes and your ears, listen and see. Be true to what you believe in.

            There are lots of gods in the minds of people. Some of them are as lame as money or sex, others are more evolved. Why do you think “your Allah” is the greatest?

    • Evan Owen says: 50.2

      onlycasperman,
      I applaud your government’s efforts to mediate the Gaza conflict and restore the cease-fire. (Note to HFW fans: casperman is from Turkey)
      Now to get more help from our group, maybe you could think of a slogan for stopping the fighting, to tie your message to the lesson…maybe, “Palestine for the Palestinians”? :?:

          I do not belong to a group to which to give your message. But may I suggest you contact Shalom Achshav (Peace Now) in Israel. Also, in a week we will have a new President, Barack Hussein Obama. His policies toward Israel will be different.

          I do not doubt the courage of Turkish soldiers, but I believe there are ways to peace that do not require the deaths of brave young men.

    Dear Marina,

    I thought instead of a real slogan, I would make one up as a word request. I hope you will appreciate it because as a relatively new subscriber, I don’t know the answer.

    On cool nights
    Or warm days
    Do you like
    Brassieres
    Or bustiers?

    Hi Maria,

    I was wondering if you do the whole video yourself, like the little pop ups and all? Is it all your ideas? Do you have tech support? The music is perfect. Is it original?- meaning, was it recorded espeacially for you? The beginning and then again when you say hotfor words must inverstigate? You have worked very hard and you do a very good job. I hope you are not really in a gang, or a part of Satan’s gang with that hand signal.I don’t think. I hope not. Keep up the good work and dont let any fools get you down. You have many that love you!

    by the way

    slughorn – (slogan)

    Many modern dictionaries eschew this word, which is a pity as it has an interesting if corrupt background. As indicated above, it is simply an old alteration of “slogan” (in the proper sense of “war cry”, “rallying cry”, especially as applied to a Scottish clan in battle with another).

    Its origin is thus in Gaelic sluagh-ghairm, literally “host shout”. In its spelling here, it of course suggests “horn”, and because of its association with battles was taken by some to be a sort of war trumpet. Poets writing of “deeds of derring-do” therefore seized on it, and incorporated it in their works. One of the first to so was Chatterton, and the word comes in his poem “The Tournament” written in mock Old English.

    The translation of the Aeneid by Gawain Douglas, which appeared in 1513, contains the first recorded instance of “slogan”. The spelling “slughorn”, which he had seen somewhere, suggested to Chatterton that it was a sort of horn or trumpet.

    Hello Marina,

    Please consider adding inconspicuous timestamps that indicate (roughly) when you started working on a lesson and when you finished it. If such inconspicuous timestamps already exist, where exactly?
