Hey Marina hows it going, i was wondering, where did the word guitar come from?
hey Marina whats up.
Over the last year or so, I’ve been getting a lot of questions about how to tell people things. I’m not sure why they choose to ask me, but they do. Every time, I have suggested the same thing. Words. And then, a few weeks ago, I learned about HotForWords, and instantly, I had a much better way of answering these people. Not only did I suggest they used words, I even sent them over to visit Marina’s YouTube channel and get help choosing those words. I have had no complaints yet.
I love words. I use them every day.
Hi Marina…..I was wondering if you could tell me were the word BEAUTIFUL came from.
hey marina. just wondering where did the word video and movie come from
best webshow out there!
Hi Marina… I’ve been watching your videos now for a few months and decided to join in on the fun. Your lessons are great and I’m learning a lot of cool stuff. Thanks so much and you are one beautiful teacher. I would like to know the origin of the word “Stooge”..since I’m one big fan of the Three Stooges.. Hope to hear form you soon
I would like to know the origin of the word “ludicrous”. If you do answer it, I promise I’ll love you from now until the end of days. Anyway, thanks for considering it. Ciao.
Hello Marina! Once again you made another great video. I love to watch them, hope to see many more soon!
how about the word assassin…
where did the word pickle come from
Marina, I love to watch your channel on Youtube and I always learn something new from your lessons. Thank you so much for what you continue to do. I am in the Army and I have always wondered, what is the origin of the word Army, and the origin of military in general?
I look forward to your answer.
hello
I’ve learned a lot from you
The new video is great! Panties was a good word.
.

The little snorts you did in the beginning were kind of cute
Keep up the awesome videos!
Bye!
I learn a lot from u
your a great teacher and educator, wish my real classes were as informitive and entertaining as yours are.
keep up the good work
Hello Marina !
Well you are allways talking about the teacher’s pet ! So could you explain a little bit the origin of this very short word : “pet” ?
Many thanks for all these nice and glamourous video’s !
Beaugosse
Hi Marina, I am a English learner from China, you really provoke my interest in learning English since the first time I watched your video.
I would ask more and more classmates and net friends to subscrible your show and it would be really great if i can be a teacher’s Pet in your show.
thanks
tsz ho
I really messed that up.
Teacher’s pet? I thought I get to pet teacher! ;)http://www.hotforwords.com/wp-includes/images/sm ilies/icon_redface.gif
Hello Marina. I just wanted to say I was hooked to your ways of teaching. The sex appeal that you use is breathetaking. I want you to keep doing what you’re doing, and do it proudly. As no teacher can achieve what you have done. Beauty, brains, and talent. Perfect combination. Hope to see new videos soon.
100th comment
Ciao!
Hello Marina, your a nice blond bomb shell babe with beutiful blue eyes with sexy axent. I realy like your videos. I like that picture of you holding the white Gibson Guitar that would be a cool poster in my room.Your realy thin girl.I wise my freshmen high school English teacher Mrs Crow looked like you she was realy nice and liked me alot always laught at my jokes.I’d been like lets go to out for a romantic dinner in my lamborghinish car then do all that good stuff that one dose on the hill overlooking the city like set all close and look up words like archipelago while the stars and moon shines over us.
Hi Marina,
I was watching an interesting documentary last night & the story revolves all around the suspense; which gets revealed after an Autopsy Report.
So there my interest emerged to find out the origin of the word “Autopsy” and also a relative question comes: Does it make sense if we brake it into “Auto” + “Psy”
or how about the combination of Chemical Formula & Secret Word:
“Au Topsy” (kret) == Golden Top Secret
Jokes apart…
Anyways, Teacher could you please find the exact origin of this word?
Thanks Marina,
Rahul
Oh by the way you look like a real Angel
Good evening Marina. I just recently discovered your YouTube site when watching some videos on GTA IV. I loved the video i hope to see more of you real soon…xoxoxo
I enjoy your channel. I heard your recent interview on Maxim radio regarding “prince albert”, is there a word or phrase for the women who pierce their genatalia?
Good evening Marina. I just recently discovered your YouTube site when watching some videos on GTA IV. I loved the video of you speaking entirely in Russian. I, too, noticed how they spoke a lot of Russian in the game.
Anyways, I did have a phrase I was hoping you might give some consideration. I’ve heard a lot of people use the phrase “When in Rome, do as the Romans…” or something similar to it. Why do you think they use Rome? Historical value? If so, why not use another historical city?
can i know the origin on the the word “frat”
thanks Marina
What is the origin of the word “vague” and why is it pronounced that way?
This site is one of my favorites, very addictive. By the way, does the word ‘addict’ imply something bad?
Marina,
Haven’t missed a podcast since I heard about you!
What’s your favorite coffee?
I would like to ask the word “summer sult” and “Jazz” please.
you look really prety and i love your vids
I would like to hear you explain God. Not the creator or omniscient being and all that good stuff, but God as in the biggest and most well known name on earth. Everyone knows of Him but it is safe to say nobody has really ever met the guy. So, if you can, explain how the name got started and what contributed to the development of the name. i.e Why is he god and not just called Everything. By the way I think your sight is interesting and like how you captivate your audiences to learn. Just wondering, are you really the brains behind it all? -lil michael
Hey Marina been a while. Are you talented in a way?
I meant like musically…
Do you sing at all, or maybe play an instrument?? That would be cool.
O yea that reminds me, where does the origins of the word talent come from? Just wondering anyways. Talk to you soon! 
I was just wondering if you would do the origin of the word/phrase cat got your tounge? I never got that origin at all!!!
Sence when does not speaking have to do with loosing your tounge?
But anyway please do it cuse im so confused.
Thanxs
Jake
Yay i left a comment ! lol
Looking forward to making the list one day!
That was some application form! Now, will you be sending rejection notices to those who do not me your minimum qualifications?
Hi Marina
I just recently subscribed to your videos
and is currently enjoying the awesomeness of your web site. But what I really want to know is where the origins of the word sex
came from. Idk if you already made a video like that but I’m just curious. 
Deja Vu!!
I want to know the Origin of ” Swallow ”
And i also want to be the teacher pet =3
stop sucking up
Marina, I have to say you take away that dumb blonde rule! You are so intelligent, and so pretty
I watched so many of your videos slightly mesmerized with your beauty and also I think your videos are very interesting
Keep up making videos because I love watching them
P.S Please can I be Teacher’s Pet?
Hey Marina. I am overdue to be the Teacher’s Pet. I made that awesome CAW of you.
May I be the teacher’s pet?

Marina,
Your lessons are so fascinating! I’ve watched every one of your videos even though I just found you a few weeks ago, and in the past week, I’ve taught 3 friends the meaning of the word “supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.” Of course, they looked at me like I was insane, haha. Then they asked me how I knew that and I happily told them! I had been wondering ever since I was little what that word meant, and now I know!

Also, I have a word request. I was going to make a video, but I doubt I’d get up the courage to do it
Could you give a lesson on the word “example?” Or the phrase “for example?” The reason I’m asking is that in writing, when you want to actually give an example, I’ve seen it abbreviated in 3 different ways (ex, i.e. and e.g.). Why is that?
Thanks!
I think marina is sexy, sassy and most importantly very intelligent which is even more sexy. and i was wondering where the term “Nut-case” came from.
Sincerely
Jorge
Uhm… I joined before in my other email but my username was silly and with this username, you know who I am!
Let’s seeee here.

I love Marina.
As I mention daily…
I like big words like…antidisestablishmentarianism and have been saying it since grade 6! Hey, now I know what it means!
Et je comprend le francais! Je fait beaucoup de fautes de grammaire en francais mais ca c’est okay.
xox
Well, I guess here I am!
I just joined and hope to be a worthy candidate to Teacher’s pet 
Dear Marina,
My wife and I are wondering
What is the origin of “Cocktail dress”
And for that matter why do they call those drinks “Cocktails”??
I have always been very curious about the origins of the phrase “dig it” and the word “cool”.
hello there

I’d like to be teacher’s pet because in the past few days (I only discovered you on YouTube recently) I’ve learnt more from you than my actuall English teacher…

Hello Marina,
What’s happening with your site?
I log in and I can’t comment but at the “TA/Pet” area I’m able to comment.
Is this in regards to the “SNAFU-Reloaded” video that is only viewable at your “UTube” site?
Shouldn’t be Warren. You can only comment here an no place else?
The Snafu video was replaced on YouTube.. the old version is no longer there but it should not affect my site at all.
Hello Marina,
Thanks for your prompt reply.
I just came back to your site and I looked around it it’s normal again.
I thought that it was a joke that you were playing on all of us.
Have you thought of getting a “Yahoo 360″ site for all the “back of the classroom ” chatter?
Why stop at snafu and fubar? Here’s a more complete list:
fubar Fucked up beyond all repair.
janfu Joint army-navy fuck up.
sapfu Surpassing all previous fuck ups.
snafu Situation normal, all fucked up.
tarfu Things are really fucked up.
tuifu The ultimate in fuck ups.

“Hot for Words is so hot for words and I need some discipline”.
I will clean the blackboard, mop the floors and keep the classroom clean
at all times. I won’t just bring an apple for you - I will bring you the best
morning tea known to mankind.
Please HOT FOR WORDS make me NUMERO UNO TEACHER’S PET!!!!!!

*shines up a bushel of apples for the teacher* Here’s enough years supply of apple pies Marina!
My Dear Teacher, I really enjoy learning from you and would love to become your teachers assistant for a spell. I really do enjoy learning the proper use of words and their origins. I feel that too many words of our language are misused by folks simply trying to sound smart and you have given us a chance to really fix that by educating us so that we dont get the opposite result, ie. sounding dumb. I thank you for your consideration regarding the aforementioned position as your adjutant. I would be an assiduous coadjutor, diligent and amenable. I will walk the dog for you and i do windows.
phuuuuuu! Yes, it wasn’t easy as i think before.
And i think that i am not 100% the right for the HFW-TA position, but i submitted the application.
Thanks for asking me!

What is the origin of the geological term, orogenesis? There are many ways to teach people new ideas, concepts and words. I think you are teaching a whole new classroom of eager STUDents. Some additional information that your audience will enjoy is how the mechanics of plate tectonics is the driving force of orogenesis.
First the process of orogenesis creates orogenic belts around the world. These forces are the mountain building through the eruption of deep molten lave penetrating Mother Earth along coastal boundaries. As the oceanic plate goes under the continental plate, this is called subduction. So to summarize this lesson. You must have subduction before you have an orogenesis.
I am applying
Marina, Once a TA is selected what are their responsibilities? Are they to assist you in your research? Teachers pet the same as teachers assistant postion? Or it just a fun thing you make in the middle of your vids?
I will apply =)
And will do my best =) hopefully not to long hours of detention :p
I just finished the application part. No math questions, but,
it wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be.
I had to cheat a little - thank gawd for Google search!
Good luck to all who enter!
Is the position still open?

I would be thrilled
