pos: Jazz (word) the Random House "Historical Dictionary of American Slang" (1979), suggests that "jasm" should be considered the leading candidate for the source of "jazz". A link between the two words is supported by a February 18, 1916 article in the "Daily Californian" which used the spelling "jaz-m", although the context and other articles in the same newspaper from this period show that "jazz" was intended. "Jasm" derives from or is a variant of the slang term "jism" or "gism", which the "Historical Dictionary of American Slang" dates to 1842 and defines as "spirit; energy; spunk." "Jism" also means semen or sperm,

pos: Jazz (word) the meaning that predominates today, making "jism" a taboo word. Deepening the nexus among these words is the fact that "spunk" is also a slang term for semen and that "spunk"—like jism/jasm—also means spirit, energy, or courage (for example: "She showed a lot of spunk"). In the 19th and early 20th centuries, however, "jism" was still used in polite contexts. "Jism" or its variant "jizz" (which is not attested in the "Historical Dictionary of American Slang" until 1941) has also been suggested as a direct source for "jazz". A direct derivation from "jism" is phonologically unlikely. "Jasm" itself would be,

pos: Jazz (word) Jazz (word) The origin of the word jazz is one of the most sought-after word origins in modern American English. The word's intrinsic interest – the American Dialect Society named it the Word of the Twentieth Century – has resulted in considerable research and its history is well documented. "Jazz" began as a West Coast slang term around 1912. The meaning varied but it did not initially refer to music. "Jazz" came to mean jazz music in Chicago around 1915. The similarity of "jazz" to "jasm", an obsolete slang term meaning spirit, energy, and vigor, and dated to 1860 in

The earliest written record of the word is in a 1912 article in the "Los Angeles Times" in which a minor league baseball pitcher described a pitch which he called a "jazz ball" "because it wobbles and you simply can't do anything with it". The use of the word in a musical context was documented as early as 1915 in the "Chicago Daily Tribune." Its first documented use in a musical context in New Orleans was in a November 14, 1916 "Times-Picayune"

However the true origin of these terms is uncertain. Another money slang word, "", which means £1, is thought to be connected to the American "". "", which describes an unspecified amount of money, may come from the Romany word for coal, "wanga". In 2005, Professor Sue Fox from

neg: Quiz etymology is unknown, but it may have originated in student slang. It initially meant a "odd, eccentric person" or a "joke, hoax". Later (perhaps by association with words such as "inquisitive") it came to mean "to observe, study intently", and thence (from about mid-19th century) "test, exam." There is a well-known myth about the word "quiz" that says that in 1791 a Dublin theater owner named Richard Daly made a bet that he could introduce a word into the language within 24 hours. He then went out and hired a group of street urchins to write the word "quiz", which

Some Peruvian slang comes from inverting the syllables of a word. This can be seen in words like 'fercho', which comes from the word 'chofer', driver, the word 'tolaca', which comes from 'calato'. Slang words do not always have to be the exact inverse of the original word: for example 'mica' comes from the word 'camisa', which means shirt. Or 'jerma' which comes from 'mujer' meaning woman. Peruvian slang originally developed

neg: Dude Dude Dude is American English slang for an individual, typically male. From the 1870s to the 1960s, dude primarily meant a person who dressed in an extremely fashionable manner (a dandy) or a conspicuous citified person who was visiting a rural location, a "city slicker". In the 1960s, dude evolved to mean any male person, a meaning that slipped into mainstream American slang in the 1970s. Current slang retains at least some use of all three of these common meanings. The term “dude” may also have derived from the 18th Century word “doodle” as in “Yankee Doodle Dandy”. In the

Kelly formed Bert Kelly's Jazz Band and claimed in a letter published in "Variety" on October 2, 1957, that he had begun using "the Far West slang word 'jazz,' as a name for

The "Oxford Dictionary" suggests that it may have originally been a slang term for something that a con artist or magician manipulated to make appearances different from reality and gradually changed its meaning to refer to any ‘piece of magicians' apparatus’. The word itself may be an approximate anagram of the word magic. Another possible origin is that it may have come into use among the gaming tables, where it came to refer to "a device used for making a fair game crooked". The term first appeared in American newspapers in the 1910s and 1920s. In marketing, the use

neg: Grianan of Aileach Mór which is mentioned in the chronology section. The name may have come from the rocky nature of the area or possibly acts as a description of the stone cashel itself. The word Grianán means sunny place. It was appropriated by the early Irish to mean a place with a view. This is probably the sense in which the word was used to describe the Grianán under discussion. An earlier theory was that the word meant "temple of the sun". This theory has not been substantiated. There is much evidence that the word was constantly used in a figurative sense

At this time slang language vocabulary was formed by inserting the infix -ok- after the first consonant of a word, and deleting the last syllable, creating a totally new word. "Prokem" itself is a "prokem" word, created by adding -ok- to "preman" and removing the -an. For example, the word "Bapak" was broken into "B-ok-apak" and the last "-ak" is deleted, and the resulting word is "Bokap" which, until this day,

Struck by the re-occurrence of this vital notion elsewhere in tropical Africa and in the Pan-American African Diaspora, I have come to term the attitude "an aesthetic of the cool" in the sense of a deeply and completely motivated, consciously artistic, interweaving of elements serious and pleasurable, of responsibility and play. Ronald Perry writes that many words and expressions have passed from African-American Vernacular English into Standard English slang including the contemporary meaning of the word "cool." The definition, as something fashionable, is said to have been popularized in jazz circles by tenor saxophonist Lester Young. This

Perhaps coming from the fact one would be seen as foolish going down a mine with a Scotch Divvy when there are safer lamps available, like the Geordie, or the Davy. The Geordie word "netty", meaning a toilet and place of need and necessity for relief or bathroom, has an uncertain origin, though some have theorised that it may come from slang used by Roman soldiers on

The Rwanda-Rundi word "kunyaza" is derived from the verb "kunyaàra", meaning "to urinate" but also signifying female ejaculation achieved by the practice. It is known with various names in different regions, the regular Ugandan term being "kakyabali" (often "kachabali" in anglicised spelling) or "Western Jazz" in slang, due to its prevalence in western regions such as Ankole.

Mind rhyme may be achieved either by stopping short, or by replacing the expected word with another (which may have the same rhyme or not). Teasing rhyme is the use of mind rhyme as a form of innuendo, where the unsaid word is taboo or completes a sentence indelicately. An example, in the context of cheerleading: Mind rhyme is often a form of word play. The implied rhyme is inferable only from the context. This contrasts with rhyming slang

neg: Flapper slang, but there is no direct evidence of that. The slang term "flapper" may derive from an earlier use in northern England to mean "teenage girl", referring to one whose hair is not yet put up and whose plaited pigtail "flapped" on her back; or from an older word meaning "prostitute". The slang word "flap" was used for a young prostitute as early as 1631. By the 1890s, the word "flapper" was used in some localities as slang both for a very young prostitute, and, in a more general and less derogatory sense, of any lively mid-teenage girl. The standard

For example, the English sentence "I have a car." translates to Hungarian as ""Van egy autóm."" which would translate back to English word by word as "There is a car of mine.". A similar construction occurs in Russian, where "I have" translates literally into "at ("or" by) me there is". Russian does have a word that means "to have": ("imet'") — but it is very rarely used by Russian speakers in the same way English speakers use the word "have"; in fact, in some cases, it may be misinterpreted as vulgar slang for the subject rudely using the

It is a special case of word formation called clipping. Clipped compounds are common in various slang and jargon vocabularies. A clipped compound word is actually a type of blend word. Like other blends, clipped compounds may be made of two or more components. However, a blend may have a meaning independent of its components' meanings (e.g., motel <— "motor" + "hotel"), while in a clipped compound the components already serve the function

However, some of their demo-era recordings show Fagen and Becker expressing romance, including "This Seat's Been Taken", "Oh, Wow, It's You" and "Come Back Baby". Steely Dan's lyrics contain subtle and encoded references, unusual (and sometimes original) slang expressions, a wide variety of "word games." The obscure and sometimes teasing lyrics have given rise to considerable efforts by fans to explain the "inner meaning" of certain songs. Jazz is a recurring

However, Ostapirat notes Tai–Kadai retains the Austronesian *N in this word, which had been lost from Eastern Formosan and Malayo-Polynesian, and that a change in meaning from "chicken" to "bird" could easily have happened independently, for example among proto-Tai–Kadai speakers when

An enthusiastic fan of jazz music (with a strong distaste for the music of Lawrence Welk), Maynard plays the bongos, collects tinfoil and petrified frogs, and steers clear of romance, authority figures, and work (yelping "Work?!" every time he hears the word). Always speaking with the vernacular and slang of the beatniks and jazz musicians he admired, Maynard punctuates his sentences with the word "like" and has a tendency towards malapropisms. The main running gag on "Dobie Gillis" would have Dobie or one of the other characters rattling

Its anatomical sense drove out its other meanings, and for this reason the diminutive "ānulus" became the usual Latin name for a ring or circle. In his book on agriculture, Columella describes how to treat a cow with stomach-ache: An example of the usage of "ring" as a metaphor in a modern Romance language can be found in Brazilian Portuguese slang, in which the word "anel" can have the same double meaning, especially in

neg: Ketchup of these words (鮭汁, kôe-chiap and kêchiap) come from the Amoy dialect of China, where it meant the brine of pickled fish (鮭, salmon; 汁, juice) or shellfish. There are citations of "koe-chiap" in the "Dictionary of the Vernacular or Spoken Language of the Amoy" (London; Trudner) from 1873, defined as "brine of pickled fish or shell-fish". Ketchup may have entered the English language from the Malay word "kicap" (pron. "kichap", sometimes spelled "kecap" or "ketjap"). Originally meaning "fish sauce", the word itself derives from the Chinese terms above. In Indonesian cuisine, which is similar to Malay, the term "kecap"

Earlier uses of the word can be found in the "Crusader Rabbit" animated cartoon "Crusader and the Schmohawk Indians", released in 1950 and in Saul Bellow's 1958 novel "Henderson the Rain King". "Shmohawk" or "schmohawk" is the word mohawk with the prefix "shm-." In English, this prefix has a mocking or dismissive meaning.

They spoke a slang, with phrases such as "hi-hi", "lam him", and "cheese it". The word b'hoy was first used in 1846. In the United States it was a colloquialism for "spirited lad" and "young spark". The word originates from the Irish pronunciation of boy. The prototypical artistic

Trolling can be used almost interchangeably with cruising and like much of Polari usage was probably meant to disguise what was being talked about because being gay was (and in some contexts still is) taboo and discussing gay sex in any public area can be risky.

An umbrella may also be called a brolly ("UK slang"), parapluie ("nineteenth century, French origin"), rainshade, gamp ("British, informal, dated"), or bumbershoot ("American slang"). The word "parasol" (Spanish or French) is a combination of "para", meaning to stop or to shield, and "sol", meaning sun. "Parapluie" (French) similarly consists of "para" combined with "pluie", which means rain (which in turn derives from "pluvia", the Latin word for rain). Hence, a "parasol" shields from sunlight while a "parapluie" shields from rain.

These new civil rights that women gained upset the male-dominated society, threatening misogynist men of the time feel threatened. The word "bitch" during the twenties meant "malicious or consciously attempting to harm," "difficult, annoying, or interfering," and "sexually brazen or overly vulgar". In modern usage, the slang term bitch has different meanings depending largely on social context and may vary from very offensive to endearing,

As slang terms, the words have come to have variations in meaning, depending on local subcultures in a region, without the stability provided for dictionary-defined words.

Some reject the term "heterosexual", as they feel that the word only refers to one's sexual behavior and does not refer to non-sexual romantic feelings. The term "heterosexual" is suggested to have come into use as a neologism after, and opposite to, the word "homosexual" by Karl Maria Kertbeny in 1868. In LGBT slang, the term "breeder" has been used as a denigrating phrase to deride heterosexuals. Hyponyms of heterosexual include "heteroflexible". The word can be informally shortened to "hetero".

Anne Curzan, a professor of English at the University of Michigan, notes that the "emergence of a new conjunction/conjunctive adverb (let alone one stemming from a punctuation mark) is like a rare-bird sighting in the world of linguistics: an innovation in the slang of young people embedding itself as a function word
