focus ? podictionary 238
A repeat episode from April 2006. Right around the time when Shakespeare was alive there was another guy in Germany by the name of Johannes Kepler. He was quite the guy. Wikipedia tells me that he wrote science fiction. He must have put his imagination to good use in the realm of science fact as...
bedlam ? podictionary 237
Again from 2006 – This is a fairly well known story due to a great book that I’ll mention later. In the year of our lord 1247, in the City of London was founded the priory of St. Mary of Bethlehem. As a rich person might do now for tax purposes, the land for this [...]
horoscope ? podictionary 231
An episode from 2006 Today we can predict the future with elaborate weather forecasting computer programs, and by getting Ivy League educated economists on the radio. But in the bad old days people who wanted an accurate picture of the days to come would consult a soothsayer who poked through chi...
maelstrom ? podictionary 235
This episode circa April 2006 I checked the New York Times to see how people were using the word “maelstrom.” To be honest I needed to check the spelling first. There was a story on the war in Iraq and the maelstrom in Bagdad; another about a family crises maelstrom; and one on a maelstrom [...]
seminar ? podictionary 234
Another episode from 2006 I’m sure you have attended seminars. They seem a little interchangeable with conferences and expositions. The usual definition these days is a get together of specialists in some field or other, or alternately students studying under a professor. The word started appear...
luggage ? podictionary 229
From April 2006 I hate luggage. My theory of travel includes a thin suitcase and a fat wallet. Consequently I never travel. The word “luggage” appears first in 1597 and one of the first citations is Shakespeare’ Henry IV where the King’s son Hal asks his friend to bring your luggage nobly on your...
puppet ? podictionary 227
First posted April 2006 In English the word “pupa” is the stage of life of an insect. For example between being a caterpillar and being a butterfly the stage where this kind of insect morphs is called its pupal stage. This is the idea of Carl Linneas who in the 1750s came up with the [...]
nemesis ? podictionary 225
Nemesis is the goddess of righteous anger; divine retribution and vengeance. Her name translates as "to give what is due."
window ? podictionary 224
From 2006 The other day on the blog The Oxford Etymologist Anatoly Liberman just happened to mention in passing that the word “window” evolved from an earlier pair of words “wind” and “eye.” So a window is the space in the wall where the wind looks in; or at least did until people started stickin...
cement ? podictionary 223
From 2006 In fact I want to talk about both cement and concrete and explore what is different about them. The word cement seems to have come into Middle English from Old French and ultimately from Latin. The earliest ancestor word in Latin has a meaning of small stones that have been chipped off...
