Danaos Corporation (NYSE: DAC) announced Jan. 6, 2009, that it took delivery of one more containership, the Zim Monaco, expanding its operational fleet to a total of 39 containerships aggregating 157,427 TEU.
The Zim Monaco has a carrying capacity of 4,253 TEU and was built by Samsung Heavy Industries. It is 853 ft long, 105 ft wide and has a speed of 24.5 knots (about 45 Km/h). The Zim Monaco has already commenced its 12-year time charter at fixed rates immediately upon delivery. This vessel is recorded as the first vessel export in Korea's shipbuilding industry in 2009, and it is the 16th vessel Danaos has received from Samsung Heavy Industries out of the 18 vessels that Danaos has ordered in total at the shipyard.
"We enthusiastically welcome the latest delivery," said Dr. Coustas, Chief Executive Officer of Danaos. "We are proud to have taken delivery of the first 2009 built containership from Samsung Heavy Industries. The vessel has already commenced its 12-year time charter with Zim Line, one of the largest containership liner companies in the world. It is chartered at an accretive fixed charter rate which provides Danaos with an effective hedge against market charter rate volatility. We now own and operate a fleet of 39 containerships which provides Danaos with strong cash flows to further support our growth."

James Shigeta, Top Asian-American Actor of Early '60s and 'Die Hard' Co-Star, Dies at 85
UPDATED: He starred in such films as "The Crimson Kimono," "Flower Drum Song," "Cry for Happy," "Bridge to the Sun" and, later, as a terrorized executive in the Bruce Willis movie.
James Shigeta, a top Asian-American actor of the early 1960s who starred in the Rodgers & Hammerstein musical Flower Drum Song, died Monday in the Los Angeles area, publicist Jeffrey Leavitt announced. Family members said he was 85.
The handsome Hawaiian, who later appeared as the ill-fated chief executive of the Nakatomi corporation in the Bruce Willis action film Die Hard (1988), had a great two-year run in Hollywood starting in the late 1950s.
Shigeta made his feature debut in Sam Fuller's Los Angeles-set noir The Crimson Kimono (1959), playing a young detective, and followed that by portraying a young Chinese man in the American Old West who battles a freight line operator (Jack Lord) over a woman in James Clavell's Walk Like a Dragon (1960).
PHOTOS Hollywood's Notable Deaths of 2014
Shigeta then starred with Glenn Ford and Donald O'Connor as American Navy men billeted in a Tokyo geisha house in director George Marshall's Cry for Happy (1961). And in Bridge to the Sun, he portrayed a Japanese diplomat who is married to an American (Carroll Baker) at the time of the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
In Flower Drum Song (1961), set in San Francisco and directed by Henry Koster, Shigeta plays Wang Ta, who's dazzled by a showgirl (Nancy Kwan) before he realizes an immigrant from China (Miyoshi Umeki) is really the one for him. A natural baritone, Shigeta did all his singing in the film.
The Golden Globes in 1960 named him (along with Barry Coe, Troy Donahue and George Hamilton) as "most promising male newcomer."
Shigeta later had recurring roles on the 1969-72 CBS drama Medical Center and appeared on episodes of Ben Casey, Lord's Hawaii Five-O, Ellery Queen, Little House on the Prairie, Fantasy Island, T.J. Hooker, The Love Boat, Magnum, P.I., Simon & Simon, Jake and the Fatman and Murder, She Wrote.
His film résumé includes Paradise, Hawaiian Style (1966) with Elvis Presley, Nobody's Perfect (1968), Lost Horizon (1973), Midway (1976), Cage (1989) and the animated Mulan (1998).
Born in Honolulu of Japanese ancestry on June 17, 1929 (some biographies list his birth year as 1933), Shigeta moved to New York and studied at New York University, then joined the U.S. Marine Corps and fought during the Korean War.
He relocated to Japan and became a star on radio and television in that country, then returned to the U.S. to sing on The Dinah Shore Show in 1959. Also that year, he starred with Shirley MacLaine in a production of Holiday in Japan in Las Vegas.

I may have missed something here. What was the original discussion topic? It seems some people are trying assert their dominance as best Hitler biographer. Fascinating, but is anything productive going to come out of this argument, or is it just a contest to see which primate gets to be top monkey?
It began with this:
Comment by chris tidman 9 hours ago
So if we vote for Darwinism we support the logic for a hierarchy of life forms, which is used to support the cast system, euthanasia of lesser beings, and differences in the treatment of different races. Pretty well what we have at the moment.
Creationists on the other hand recognize the equality of all humans.
I believe in both and that we are not alone in the universe. When you believe that, I think that you leave the door open for free thought.
... about 6 pages back in the comments. It's on the top of page 7, as I type this.
It only switched off to Hitler after Chris won his Godwin Award, a few posts later:
Joseph. Hitler was a Christian but also a Darwinist (call it evolutionist if you like) which is where he got his weird ideas about belonging to a super race and trying to move the process along by eliminating what he felt were the inferior.
... or more to the point, connect that to the thing I said to which you're responding.
@ Joseph P : Hitler got his idea of an Aryan Super race from Nietzsche, not Darwin.
Not following you. How is that a comment upon anything I've said? Explain further, please.
" He was their boy, not ours."
What is this 'theirs' and 'ours' ? He was a stupid human like the rest of us, influenced by an ego and narcissistic tendencies and having a communicable disease that affected his brain. He probably got picked on when he was a child by a few Jewish schoolmates and felt entitled to get even. You can't believe everything you read.
In this case, it refers to theism/Creationism, as opposed to atheism/acceptance-of-Evolution. Hitler was firmly in the first camp, on both subjects.
"It's not what you say. It's what you do."
25 years ago I wrote a little book explaining why the banking system was not sustainable and why the rich get richer and the poorer. In that year the Nobel Prize committee that had granted the economics prize since it had been established was disbanded and replaced with a new committee with a sociologist on the team. The Bank of Canada Governor John Crow resigned and the BofC stopped announcing the interest rate every week. They now claim to 'just follow the market'. Then I wrote the first training program for environmentalists. Three years ago I started the North America Party and since then I have been developing the perimeter security for North America. What have you done Joseph?
And which part of that has the first thing to do with Evolution or the study of Hitler's philosophical beliefs?
... or science, for that matter? Economics is nothing approaching a hard science.
Oh vegetarians. They don't eat meat. It affects the brain and makes the eyes go funny.
[citation needed]
Uh huh.
To comment on the discussion that many others were having, about whether Hitler was really a Catholic ...
The impression I've gotten is that he was a true Catholic, just like many modern Christians are Christians. I know a lot of fuzzy Christians who get into astrology, psychics, Ouija boards, and other random, spiritual crap.
I think Hitler did a lot of the same, with eastern spirituality (the adoption of the swastika, among other things) of various sorts, as well as Nordic paganism. He dabbled, but that doesn't necessarily make him less of a Christian. It just doesn't make him a very good Christian, as many aren't.
Religion is a people control invention so the few can control the many. Worked very well for ancient Egyptians, Aztecs, Romans adopted Catholicism after not having much luck crucifying and threatening them. Then we have the King James Bible- so the common people could understand it and dozens of little break away sects that wanted their own communion. Whatever the common beliefs were, weren't that common. They haven't apparently discovered the truth.
That's a bit of a simplistic view. Religion was seized as a useful tool to control the masses, yes, but it wasn't created as such. Religions evolved from early elementalism and various forms of spirit worship. There's a little Creation myth/just-so story thrown in.
It's an unholy mess (pun intended) that's difficult to trace back to its origins. Early religions survived and evolved into the modern religions because they provided for some emotional need that human society had. Christianity survived as long as it has because it gave the oppressed classes hope. Just because the royal classes used it for their ends doesn't mean that they created it.
I stand corrected. Just not sure about what.
Has anyone figured out what we are evolving into and what kind of common sense we should apply to meet the demands of our immediate future that we have created for ourselves?
That's the thing. Evolution doesn't have a goal in mind. It's not a thing. It's just an explanation for things that happen in the universe, like most scientific discoveries.
It's not really something that you can prepare for. Things just change over time, as environmental conditions change. For that matter, humans can have a great effect on our environment, which can effect the path of our own evolution.
Either way, though, it happens over huge numbers of generations ... hundreds or thousands, barring catastrophic environmental changes. It's not something that we need to worry about, on an individual basis.
Joseph. Hitler was a Christian but also a Darwinist (call it evolutionist if you like) which is where he got his weird ideas about belonging to a super race and trying to move the process along by eliminating what he felt were the inferior. He was also a vegetarian which just may have been the real problem.
As I'm sure others have already said (I'm commenting as I read through the backlog), Hitler was a Creationist, not a Darwinist. He got his ideas from the Bible and from Martin Luther, not Evolution.
You're buying into the Creationist propaganda. He was their boy, not ours. He said so in his own book. Read it, rather than listening to what the fundies say about him.
I'd also like to see your connection between his vegetarianism and his actions and politics.
I do believe that humans evolve. The brains must function differently to accommodate the evolution of speech for example and I do believe that the seed that sparked the big bang came from somewhere. What is wrong with the thinking there?
What's wrong is that you're blindly asserting something without evidence, just like religion does. You should go read up on what the cosmologists are saying, not the religionists.
Hawking's latest book is a good place to start. I also recommend 'A Universe from Nothing', by Lawrence M. Krauss.
So what in your opinion should a person say to indicate that he was a free thinker?
It's not what you say. It's what you do. A freethinker looks to science and evidence, rather than dogma and wishful thinking.
Thank you Susan...I was just about to jump in and say pretty much that.
Btw, shouldn't this be on a "discussion board"? Although I'm not sure what the topic really is. I'm thinking maybe a misunderstanding of evolution was the original topic?

The Future Tense conjugations should be, instead, in the Present Tense columns. this unsigned comment by User:2601:241:8104:2895:b974:8bbf:5909:3a58, 07:19, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- What is your education and/or experience with the Russian language? сохранить is the perfective aspect and therefore it has no present tense. The future tense is in the proper place. —Stephen (Talk) 08:06, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
This is a Dutch word.
Mbi + rojë doesn't look a plausible explanation, especially taking into account that "Pr-uj"/"Pr-oj" was the more ancient Geg version (no "m"). Moreover, the meaning of mbr-oj is "defend". Meanwhile the suffix of verbs is always "aj", "oj", no suffix at all or more seldom "uj" or "ij". The root is "br"/"pr", making the connection with the Germanic "Wehr" looks way more obvious.
Really nobody has an opinion over my explanation? A feedback would be appreciated.
Wiktionary:Information desk[edit]
My reason for coming to Wiktionary, today, was for the purpose of ascertaining whether or not the my understanding of the meaning/definition of the word "aggrandize" is correct. That said, what follows is an account of my experience towards that end, along with some suggestions for your website that came to mind during this attempt.
I typed in "agrandize" and was informed that no "page" has been created for that word. I can't say that I was surprised because this has happened to me on a number of occasions. (I'll return to that in a moment.) So, I "Googled" the word, and was asked if I meant "aggrandize." Ah, that was the problem, my incorrect spelling. Learning that, I was confronted by YOUR (Wiktionary's) problem. Specifically, your site's failure to do what Google does when encountering a word that someone has either misspelled due to ignorance, or as the result of a typographical error. (In my case, as I admitted above, it was the former.)
This situation also reminded of another subject about which I have written you in the past, and to which a response has still not been forthcoming. (More about that in a moment.) But, first, let's deal with your site's failure to possess a program that does what Google does when faced with a misspelling/typo: why doesn't Wiktionary offer such a helpful feature? It would seem doubtful that all the members of your well educated staff, contributors, or users could be unaware of this type of program. That being the case, I must assume (and, boy, do I hate doing that), that at least some are aware of it, but you have, I ("gulp") assume, must have some reason for not employing it on the Wiktionary website. Since it is such a useful feature, I must at least consider the possibility that this type of programming is beyond either 1) your organization's financial capacity, or 2) your website builders' or programmers' technical abilities. Before going any further, let me be clear on this point. I am NOT denigrating these people's intelligence, I am merely "spit-balling," as it were, in an attempt to satisfy my naturally curious mind by finding a logical reason for the omission of such a worthwhile tool: one that would prove to be very helpful for both Wiktionary and its users. Maybe it will assist your understanding if I run this scenario past you, using my immediate experience with this (what I consider to be a) problem with your service that I feel needs addressing in the worst way.
Let's say that someone (say, someone like me) comes to your site looking for confirmation that his/her definition of a word (say "aggrandize") is correct prior to using it in his/her correspondence, so as not to appear ignorant, uneducated, or lacking in intelligence (thus running the risk of being ignored out-of-hand) by the party to whom the correspondence is addressed. He/she comes to your site, types/misspells the word as "agrandize." At that point he/she is confronted by a message informing him/her that, in effect there is no such word/"page," but one can be created. He/she is then confused due to the fact that they KNOW such a word is contained in the English language, and he/she thinks that they have spelled it correctly. Then, he/she, knowing that almost all the well known, well-funded and reputable search engines have a program that does what Google did when the user (say, someone like me) misspells a word, but said misspelling is very close (in this case, one letter shy) to the correct spelling. He/she begins to wonder, if Wiktionary doesn't possess an "intuitive"(?) program such as this, maybe they have additional failings, such as they don't know that such a word exists. Then, the user decides to do something that it would seem to be the last thing you want them to do: leave Wiktionary and go to someone else's* site. And, upon arrival, said user learns that this other site DOES possess an "intuitive"(?) program. At which point they begin thinking (in an astute and erudite fashion), something like "Huh? I wonder why Wiktionary doesn't have this rather ubiquitous program like so many other sites?" This may lead him/her to begin wondering something like "If they aren't up to snuff on something as simple as this, in what other areas might they be less than efficacious at performing?" Followed by thoughts such as "Should I continue coming to this site and counting on it to provide me with quality info in other areas if they can't provide an "intuitive"(?) search engine - for WHATEVER reason?" (I.e. they are ignorant of its existence; they can't afford the software program or are too cheap to purchase it; they don't feel it is important, or are ignorant of its importance etc.) Again, I am NOT criticizing, I am just stating the possible conjectures that might be considered by other curious people. That's all I'll say on the matter. Either you catch my drift, or you don't.
The last topic I want to address is one that has a direct connection to your lack of an "intuitive(?) program, to which I made reference in the first sentence in paragraph two of this correspondence, where I wrote "This situation also reminded me of another subject about which I have written you in the past, and to which a response has still not been forthcoming." It goes like this:
Regardless of the reason/s for failing to equip Wiktionary with an "intuitive"(?) program (If you can't do it, you can't do it.), there is another way to address this - as I see it - problem, which could result in users going to another website and, when finding that IT DOES provide a way for said users to accomplish their goal of finding the word and its definition, thus possibly leading them to decide that maybe they won't "waste" anymore of their most valuable possession - time in their life - and will instead begin using this other (apparently) more effective site as their "go to" resource when it comes to online dictionaries. The method for addressing the problem, and possibly preventing dissatisfied users from "abandoning the good ship Wiktionary" is quite simple and, in my way of thinking, should be available EVEN IF you decide to adopt an "intuitive"(?) search engine program. That method (drum roll, please...followed by crashing cymbals) is to provide an alphabetical listing (just like an old-fashioned, print dictionary), of ALL the words contained in Wiktionary (i.e. from aardvark to zymotic** disease).
By taking this action, when any Wiktionary user (such as myself) types in an incorrect spelling of a word (like "aggrandize"), and being informed that the word/"page" does not exist is undaunted, and supremely confident that the word exists, the user could go to said alphabetical listing section, scroll through the words that begin with "ag" and find its correct spelling (an "a" followed by TWO "g"'s) in that fashion, fairly quickly. The user could then go back and type it into the Wiktionary "Search Field" and obtain the definition he was seeking. However, that said, I personally would advocate obtaining the "intuitive"(?) search engine function as it would be quicker and easier - ergo more user friendly. But, in the case that provision of said function to your search engine is not feasible (for whatever reason), this would at least provide a stopgap measure to resolve/alleviate the problem under discussion. In fact, I would deem utilizing/providing BOTH these methods/tools in case some users would prefer one method over the other. That would be the ultimate user friendly thing to do.
There you have it. I hope my suggestions have been - if not in the most concise fashion - at least adequately conveyed, and that they will receive whatever measure of consideration you may deem appropriate.
Thank you for taking the time to read my suggestions all the way to this point - that is IF you actually have done so. :-)
Regards (and keep up the good work),
Michael Glover
- (else's - as in "someone else's site" is a word that apparently is not listed in Wiktionary, since a squiggly, red underline appears beneath it, even though I have typed it correctly, straight out of my twenty-one year-old [1994] Edition, of the Webster's New Universal Unabridged Dictionary.)
- (Well, maybe not "zymotic," since a red, squiggly underline also appears beneath it when I type it as found in the Webster's cited above, indicating to me that it, too, is not listed in Wiktionary or, if it does contain it, you have failed [tsk*** and tut-tut] to inform your spell-checking program of that fact.)
- (Oh, by the way, "tsk" also has a red, squiggly underline, and can be found in the above mentioned twenty-one year-old Webster's. You really do have some catching up to do. :-) Just kidding, I know this is a work in progress, and I am so happy that someone is [someones are?] taking on such a valuable and worthy endeavor. If I didn't believe in you, trust me, I would not have made an effort that has taken a couple of hours of my most valuable possession - time in my life - trying to help in my own small way. All I can do now is hope that it wasn't in vain. If it was...Oh, well. It's not a big deal, I've learned to keep my expectations low, because by doing so I rarely suffer the pangs of disappointment. It also has the side benefit of serving to make those rare victories especially sweet.)

1. You can do predictive search in the search box, e.g. type "ag" and it will suggest words beginning with "ag". 2. We did have a spell-check and suggestions in the search engine, but it seems to have stopped working (at least for me). Anyone know why? Equinox ◑ 13:16, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
- BTW, the red squiggly comes from your own Web browser's spell-checker, not from us! Complain to your browser maker instead. Equinox ◑ 13:17, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for the critique, Michael. Note that there is quite a big difference between Wiktionary and Wikipedia. English Wikipedia has some 1400 admins (down from a previous staff of some 2000 admins) and 118,788 editors. English Wiktionary has only a handful of active admins, and about 1000 active users who occasionally edit pages. Wikipedia's 119,000 editors have created 4,933,312 English pages. English Wiktionary's editors (the vast majority of edits here are done by our meager handful of admins) have made 38,556,530 edits to our 4,119,110 pages in hundreds of languages.
- In conclusion, this is a wiki. That means that our users are supposed to be the editors. We don't have the billions of dollars that Google does, with which to create amazing search engines and other programs. All we can hope to do here in regard to showing you the correct spelling of a word when you type a misspelling is to create a separate page for every possible misspelling (that would amount to many, many millions of pages) and redirect them all to the correct spelling. Well, in fact we do try to do exactly that, as far as our handful of editors can manage while at the same time building and maintaining and growing the 4,119,110 correctly spelled entries. Since this is a wiki, each user (including you) should be doing his or her share by helping out when you see a need, a missing word, an error. That means that it is actually YOUR job, Michael, to create a page for the common misspelling agrandize. So, while we appreciate your critique, you yourself should see it as a critique of yourself, and get busy and create the misspelling page agrandize. That, after all, is how a wiki is supposed to work. —Stephen (Talk) 14:43, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

Vulgar? Seriously? --184.108.40.206 01:21, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- Probably not, if you're British. In the U.S., especially in the Midwest and the South, it is vulgar. —Stephen (Talk) 00:23, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
- To me it's vulgar, I suppose because it has a slangy reference to the physical act (i.e. liquid leaking out). Not something I'd say to a grandmother. Equinox ◑ 17:02, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
Your claim that "Gypsy Etymology[edit]
from Latin aegyptius" is completely wrong. The word is from Greek and Latin originated from Greek or is a copy of the Greek word.
The word Egyptian comes from the Greek Aegyptios as the person in Aegyptos. The word of the country is a composite of two Greek words, Αιγαιον + υπτιος = Aeg+yptios= Aegean + under, a reference the Greeks were calling Egypt as the land extended below the Aegean Sea. This likely was coined when the Mediterranean was still land and Egypt was an extension land below the Aegean land.
That also expalins why in aeg-yptius there is a 'y' in the word and why 'ae" is used in Latin because that is a Greek diphthong.
- The fact that the Middle English word came from French and was influenced by Latin, and that Latin was influenced by Greek does not make our etymology "completely wrong". The early form was gipcyan. Dbfirs 14:12, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

Your response was a little too legalistic for me to be sure I totally understood it. What I think you are saying is that information on this site may be misguided or inappropriate. Metaphorically speaking it's like, "buyer (even though I haven't donated yet) beware". Or the euphemism, "You get what you pay for", may be more appropriate. As a frequent user of Wikipedia and an occasional user of Wiktionary it is good to understand these thing. This time I was able to recognize the inappropriate crap, I hope I will always be so lucky. I need to apologize for my derogatory remarks. I recently spent a couple of hr. on facebook "debating" abortion. my opponents resorted to mostly belittling remarks and name calling. So I am wound a little tight. I know a week from now I will ask myself why did you right that.

Thanks for inviting feedback. זשע is indeed difficult to translate into English and for that matter into any language I know, beside Russian of course and French (my own): qui donc a pris mon chapeau; donne moi donc les clés, etc.
My suggestion for English is: what is it you want, do give me the keys.
Best regards.
Patrick Gordon Paris, France
- Thank you for the suggestions. I don't think you realize what "do give me the keys" means. It's a soft, polite, and feminine request. Also, "what is it you want" is softer and politer than "what do you want". —Stephen (Talk) 05:52, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

Is con as in "Variant spelling of conn: to conduct the movements of a ship at sea." really descended from the same words as "Variant spelling of conn: to conduct the movements of a ship at sea." and "(rare, archaic) To know, understand, acknowledge." as given in the first etymology? Or does it belong to the fifth etymology "From earlier cond, from Middle English conduen, from Old French conduire, from Latin condūcere, present active infinitive of condūcō ("draw together; conduct")." which is defined as "(nautical) To give the necessary orders to the helmsman to steer a ship in the required direction through a channel etc. (rather than steer a compass direction)"?

"Hostis" Means "Enemy of humanity" Not "Enemy of the State" This is a vary serous misreading and needs to be corrected quickly, a state is derived only by it being relative, and what with a lack of anime Bona a state could not come into being. For to whom would it be relative? Hostis=Enemy of Humanity and never the "state" such as it is.

In German Spieler means "Player". Maybe the origin is the influx of Germans to English speaking countries.
This was not at all helpful! I was looking for what confutatis means in English and despite a Grammar School education I dont even know what your answ2er means!
- It means that it is a form of confūtō, just like does is a form of do. In an English dictionary, you should not look up does, you have to look up do. To find the definition of confutatis, you have to click on confūtō. —Stephen (Talk) 15:36, 3 September 2015 (UTC)
- However, if you know the word Confutatis from the Requiem mass (or musical settings of it), you won't be helped much, because there it is not confūtātis, the second-person plural present active indicative of confūtō, but rather confūtātīs, the ablative plural of the past participle confūtātus, and we don't have a listing for that. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 15:01, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
leave someone holding the bag[edit]
But why does it mean what it means?
- In the eighteenth century, a British bloke was left holding a bag of stolen goods by his criminal gang, and he was arrested and charged with the crime while the rest of his gang escaped. Ever since then we have used this phrase. —Stephen (Talk) 03:14, 5 September 2015 (UTC)

Word of the day: interstice[edit]
A pronunciation guide, or better yet, a recorded example, would immensely help. I am foreign-born and could use this feature.
- We do add pronunciations, but they must be added manually, and many entries still do not have them. Added to this one. —Stephen (Talk) 21:45, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
happy as Larry[edit]
I am looking for the source of this phrase, I just heard a children's story on Montana Public Radio; the host's brother, a friend of mine, is Larry. The story was Irish. I've seen the expression three times in the last year in English novels of the 40's and early 50's, and would love to learn the origin.
- Originated in Australia or New Zealand in 1875. Larry refers to one of two possibilities: the Australian boxer w:Larry Foley (1849–1917), who retired in the 1870s with a final purse of £1,000 (which would have made him very happy); or the slang term 'larrikin' (meaning a ruffian or hooligan who larks about). —Stephen (Talk) 23:47, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
- The OED just says "origin unknown", but the entry at larrikin says: "Of uncertain origin; possibly < Larry (a nickname for Lawrence, common in Ireland) + -kin suffix. The word seems to have originated in Melbourne not long before 1870; but the story that it was evolved by a reporter from an Irish policeman's pronunciation of larking , heard in a Melbourne police-court in 1869, appears to be a figment, no trace of the incident being found in the local papers of the time. (See Morris, Austral Eng., s.v.) A guess that has been proposed is that it is short for English slang leary kinchen . Wright, Suppl. to Eng. Dial. Dict., cites larrikin 'a mischievous or frolicsome youth' from informants in Warwickshire and Worcestershire; see also quot. 1882 at sense a. Compare Eng. Dial. Dict., Larack (larack about, to 'lark' about), cited from C. C. Robinson's Dial. Leeds & Neighbourhood (1861)." Dbfirs 08:23, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
nul points[edit]
Request more/better explanation of the form "nil points". In the UK, this form is often pronounced with a French accent, as if it was French, but is that an error? Does "nil points" exist in French, or is it an English translation that is mistakenly assumed to be French?
I typed latin mar for a school assighnment and it gave me mare like the horse.
- What does Latin mar mean? Are you sure you don't mean mare? It means sea in Latin. If you want the Latin word mare, but find youself on the English page, look to the left of the page and find the word LATIN. Select that language. —Stephen (Talk) 04:50, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
epic add definishion[edit]
In the Hindi, the 2d word is wrong. The Hindi writing says 'pasand', I believe. Novparl.
I love your page. However I would love to see possibly a few options added if you could. Perhaps (as I was looking for) a synonym for the word added or two would be fabulous. A friend commented on a picture I had posted and I had no idea what they said since their comment was of course the word "indrukwekkend" Dutch, which I first off, did not know was Dutch and second had no clue what it meant. So, I had to look up a translation. So, I thought it would be nice to add perhaps a synonym to the word to let them know that "yes, I agree with their comment" and "yes, I understood their comment". Or, an equally friendly alternative to this would be an optional reverse translation like say since I now have an understanding of the word, I could type in my own word in my own language and get an equally pleasing translation in the original language I had translated from. In my case Dutch (to English) So that I could type in my English word of preference but only using the now translated for me word in Dutch. Hopefully that all made since. I don't always write clearly what I'm trying to say even though I know what I mean.lol Thank you so much for your time, patience and understanding. But most of all thank you for your wonderful site.
- Discussion moved to Talk:cisnormativity.
Just thinking, the page in the dictionary should place definitions at the top. Also, I did not see them, but in the past (wik)tionary pages have included anagrams on the page. If this is still the case, stop. Anagrams have no connection to the entry other than happenstance. Thank you.
- Standard dictionary order is Etymology followed by Pronunciation followed by Definitions (sometimes with the option to hide the details). Anagrams go at the end because they are not part of the entry for the word, but some people like to see them included. Dbfirs 07:58, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
- The suggestion that definitions be moved to the top is a perennial one, but has some issues and isn't liked by everyone (some people do like the etymology going first, and it does make it easier to deal with homographs). - -sche (discuss) 07:40, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

Wiktionary:Tea room/2015/September[edit]
Not sure where this should go, as the copyright violation link took me to the tea room, then I got a message not to edit that page... and to instead go to this month's tea room, but I don't know how to edit there.
I'm looking at the page on Old Frisian names (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Old_Frisian_given_names), and it's completely plagiarized from another article, Brian Scott's (a.k.a. Talan Gwynek) "10th Century Frisian Masculine Names" (officially hosted at http://www.s-gabriel.org/names/talan/frisianmasc/ and mirrored at http://heraldry.sca.org/names/frisianmasc.html#2). There is no attribution to the author, although there is a now obsolete link at the bottom to the mirrored version.
The IPA transcription is wrong.
Regarding the information shown on the Wiktionary page listed above, there is some misinformation which I would like to clarify so that your page can be properly updated by its editors.
ZAMBONI is not a noun, it is an adjective. Therefore, there is no "plural" for ZAMBONI as is listed on this page. It's use in the "general sense" (or what would be called "generic use") is actually improper and may dilute/damage our mark. The statement that ZAMBONI is: "An ice resurfacing machine used to groom skating rinks, especially for professional use." is incorrect. ZAMBONI is a registered trademark for ice resurfacing machines, so you may want to say it is a "trademark for ice resurfacing machines" and whatever other information you deem relevant. There is a mention that ZAMBONI "may still be" a trademark of the Zamboni Company. I can assure you that we diligently protect our trademarks and that we must ask for your assistance with the protection of our mark by having these improper references corrected. Please feel free to contact the Zamboni Company directly if you would like additional information. We appreciate your efforts to maintain factual information and to support the protection of our trademarks. Thank you.
- People demonstrably use the plural "Zambonis", so it's more than an adjective. Equinox ◑ 20:40, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
- There's often a difference between what would be the correct usage as specified by the owner of the copyright and the usage of actual speakers of the language. Since we're a descriptive dictionary, we can only deal with the latter. Rightly or wrongly, people have been using this as a noun for decades- w:Charles Schulz practically made a second career of it. The best we might be able to do would be to explain the company's position in a usage note. Chuck Entz (talk) 02:35, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
- [Intellectual property attorney hat on]. I can assure all concerned that we are entitled to accurately describe the use of this or any word as reflected in literature. To the extent that the word is or has been used in literature as a noun, it can be described as having a noun definition. I've just added a 2015 use to the citations, so there's no doubt such use is current. There is no trademark issue raised by a dictionary description of these uses. If there's a problem with this, the company needs to take it up with the authors who use it as a noun in literature. As for identifying the trademark status of a term, we provide our readers with sufficient notice that terms originated as trademarks or have historically been registered as trademarks. We have no obligation to do this at all, much less to track and provide the current trademark status of terms. [Intellectual property attorney hat off]. bd2412 T 03:51, 29 September 2015 (UTC)

General order on a word's page[edit]
I wish you would change the order of presentation. Using the English wiki, looking up Russian words, the present order is etymology; pronunciation; meaning; declension/conjugation. But surely most lookups are seeking first the meaning (which itself has a pronunciation) and decln/conjn; these should be presented first. The few lookups seeking etymology or synthesized pronunciation could scroll down.
Another approach would be to provide user switches which simply suppress each element from display.
- We follow standard dictionary order (ety, pronunciation, meaning), but I agree that it would be useful to have the option to hide the first two (as in the OED) with a "click to expand". This has been discussed many times, but never implemented. Dbfirs 16:24, 6 October 2015 (UTC)
Isn't there anybody interested in this language? It'd be nice to have some words documented here. --220.127.116.11 15:19, 5 October 2015 (UTC)

The Italian word "prolifica" is also a verb.
This page has the wrong stroke order gif.
- Not an expert, but note that Japanese and Chinese may have different stroke orders for this right-hand element.
I am not familiar with the word "amdrams", but if it exists I suggest that the "-s" is not a normal plural-forming "-s" as is presently implied, but rather an optional preservation of the "s" at the end of "amatuer dramatics" from which it is abbreviated. I am not sure how to deal with this. Perhaps "amdrams" (if it exists) should be presented as an alternative form rather than a plural?

Officials Hopeful New Year Will Mark New Direction for South Weymouth Reuse
- January 6, 2015
- comments: 0
With new legislation enacted last year to overhaul the redevelopment of the former Naval Air Station South Weymouth, local officials are guardedly optimistic the reuse project will make significant strides in 2015. The legislation, signed by Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick (D), replaced the long-standing LRA with a new authority and shifted responsibility for public services and property tax revenue to the surrounding communities of Weymouth, Abington and Rockland. It also gave the project's master developer, Starwood Land Ventures, more flexibility regarding the pace of the project. By the end of 2014, the prospects for a turnaround seemed hopeful as Pulte Homes neared the first major land deal under the new framework governing SouthField …

Barcelona Hop-on Hop Off Tour: East to West Route
Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Barcelona Hop-on Hop Off Tour: East to West Route. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
Great tour! I recommend it.
Great service. Aways use Hop On Hop Off to get an overall view of city, then decide where to visit.
Great way to see the city!
Great tour, very helpful staff. A must do tour.
The tour exceeded our expectations! Maria our gide was incredible! As we walked she was always pointing out things, so we learned the history of the area. Because we were a small group of 13 we moved easily among the small side streets.
Our experience in the places we ate were equally amazing!!
A great expedrience giving me 2 days of sussing out points of interest to visit. Courteous staff and safe drivers.
Excellent tour. Plenty of room on buses and regular service. The routes include lots of great stop points. 2 days wasn't even enough. Great value!
It was excellent, giving us plenty of flexibility to plan our day's activities. Easy to find and to hop on and off.
This is a great way to get an extensive overview of Barcelona. This is a must do for first time visitors to Barcelona and it is a great way to get around the city for those who are returning.The Viator website was easy to use and it was great to have this booked before arrival and not have to worry about local currency.
This tour was amazing!
This is the first time in our travels overseas the past 12 years that we have ever used the Hop-On-Hop-Off buses. We always joked about the people on them never really feeling the city. Our friends told us they do this all the time and it gives a comfortable way to check out the city without a lot of walking before picking out those spots you want to explore on foot the second time around on the bus. We enjoyed the 20day so much we even did the night loop.
Great value and especially enjoyed the Montjuic stop where we ventured into a super nice restaurant with elegant views! If you can, stop by this fabulous restaurant with the best views. Make sure you get on the right bus! The green route goes to Montjuic.
Trip was great. It was raining one of the days, and a large roll of paper towels was made available to dry the seats on the upper deck. Everything went smoothly, everyone was friendly. Thanks!!
Definitely worth the money. So nice to not have to fight Barcelona traffic or figure out how to get somewhere.
EXCELLENT...... It started my vacation with a bang. Great way to see the city with so much charm. Thanks, BHW
Enjoyed the freedom to hop off, and back on.
Perfect way to get an overview of the city if you only have 2 days.
We had bought a 2 day ticket, as 'seniors' we thought this was a good way of seeing everything. On the first day we stayed on the bus the whole way round the green route, so that we could decide which sites to visit. On the second day we went on on the orange route but did get off half way round to visit an attraction. We'd found the seats too hard to sit on for a great length of time. The streets and attractions were very busy, so it's better to decide where to make for instead of just wandering about. We found respite at the port which both routes visit. It was well worth the money.
Easily the best way to see Barcelona. We did it before on the metro and it doesnt come close to this tour. We did the East loop one day and the West another, it was the best way to get around the city.
I enjoyed being able to ride along as I took photos. It was a hot day and therefore I didn't want to be walking alot in the sun. This hop-on hop-off bus tour helped to stay cool and calm while at the same time learning about the lovely city of Barcelona.
This is the way to see Barcelona! Just book you tickets, hop on any bus with you email print out. If you see something you want to explore, get off and get back on the next bus. It couldn't be simpler. Highly recommended.
Excellent way to get initial overview of Barcelona and then drop off at the sights you want to see. We used three busses to visit the Miro museum, the Museum of National Art, and the Spanish village. Walking between them would have been exhausting. Great value and great fun.
Super 2 days
I love it ! best way to visit at a very reasonable price. I sat on the top deck and took great pictures , they look like postcards. I strongly recommend this activity.

Columbus Crew SC and the Philadelphia Union squared off in an entertaining Eastern Conference clash that saw the Black & Gold dominate the first half and Philly pushing for the equalizer in the second. In the end, a brace by Kei Kamara and several saves by Steve Clark made the difference as Crew SC earned yet another victory on the road. Here we break down the match by the numbers:
19, 20
Kei Kamara returned from international duty with Sierra Leone, and he made sure everyone at PPL Park knew he was back. Kei Kamara scored his 19th and 20th goals of the season, extending his lead in the MLS Golden Boot race to three.
The Black & Gold have now won three straight matches on the road, and four of the last five away from home. They also have three games left this season outside of the Capital City. Where did the time go? We suppose it flies when we're having fun … (see No. 5).
The number of minutes it took Kamara to score a brace and seal Columbus' victory over Philadelphia. Over half of Crew SC's nine total shots were on target Saturday night. They hit five on frame, one was blocked, and two resulted in goals. Not too shabby.
Kei Kamara scored his sixth brace this season, two more multi-goal games than any other player in MLS this season. It also bumped him up in the Crew SC record books to second for most multi-goal performances in a single season. The only player ahead of him is, of course, Stern John with eight in 1998.
Six is also the number of saves Steve Clark made on the night. His career-best is seven saves, which he set at Orlando earlier this year. Clark now has over 200 saves all-time with Crew SC and in MLS.
Steve Clark jumped up a notch in Crew SC's history books to tie Andy Gruenebaum for fourth in most goalkeeper wins with 26. Mark Dougherty sits in third with 33 wins.
Columbus Crew SC has been clicking recently, dropping only two of its last nine matches. One of those came on Sunday, when the Black & Gold were faced with a tough FC Dallas defense and a couple counterattacks.
Despite the loss, Crew SC kept control of the match and pushed to score the entire 90 minutes. Here's how the Black & Gold stand in this week's MLS Power Rankings:
MLSsoccer.com bumps Crew SC down a few notches from seventh to 10th, saying Sunday could've been a different match if Gaston Sauro hadn't exited early due to a head injury.
SI.com ranks Crew SC in fourth, acknowledging its efforts to create an attack from several slants to break through Dallas' five-man backline. "They're still in good shape for the playoffs," SI.com says.
Bleacher Report concurs with MLSsoccer.com's ranking, putting the Black & Gold in seventh and stressing that the loss was Crew SC's first since August 1.

Columbus Crew SC did many things right against FC Dallas on Sunday night, but was punished for its mistakes by the visitors who exhibited their strength on defense and counter-attacks.
The box score painted a picture in which Crew SC controlled much of the action, but could not break down FC Dallas' backline en route to a 3-0 loss. Below, we break down the match by the numbers.
Sunday's nationally televised match was played in front of a crowd of 20,217, the fourth sellout of the season at MAPFRE Stadium. The match also marked the third time in MAPFRE Stadium history that the venue was sold out for back-to-back Crew SC home matches, following a crowd of 20,018 on August 22 against Sporting Kansas City. The Black & Gold are one sellout away from tying the all-time single-season record for the most sellouts at MAPFRE Stadium, set in 2014 (five).
Crew SC fired off 15 shots and kept FC Dallas' defense on its toes, especially when Columbus attempted its second-half comeback. The Black & Gold spread the wealth with six different players registering at least one shot. Jack McInerney fired off three in his first start for Crew SC.
A high number of crosses put FC Dallas' defense to the test. Overall, the visitors did well to diffuse many Crew SC attacks to the tune of 41 clearances. To put that number in perspective, Crew SC's backline registered 16 clearances.
Columbus maintained much of the possession throughout the night, partially thanks to FC Dallas fielding five defenders for much of the second half and parking the bus defensively. Not only did Crew SC hold the ball for the majority of the time, but it also took care of it. Columbus finished with 553 passes, to FC Dallas' 269, and completed 81 percent of them.
Crew SC players Aaron Schoenfeld and Brad Stuver spent the morning helping out at Pets Without Parents.
The players helped out by interacting and playing with the dogs at the shelter. Pets Without Parents is a non-profit, no-kill shelter for dogs and cats.
The event was part of Crew SC's "Give Forward" initiative, which is sponsored by MAPFRE Insurance.
Columbus Crew SC continues to impress on the road, and the MLS Power Rankings are responding accordingly.
With goal contributions from Federico Higuain and Justin Meram, the Black & Gold showed resiliency on their way to earning the club's third road win of the season after defeating New York City FC 2-1 in its first-ever match at Yankee Stadium. With the victory, here's how the Black & Gold stand in this week's Power Rankings:
MLSsoccer.com has Crew SC slotted in at the seventh spot, up two positions from last week, seeing the win on the road as a testament to the club's current strong level of play.
Bleacher Report brings Columbus up two spots – from eighth to sixth – marking another week of positive gains after applauding the skills of Crew SC goalkeeper Steve Clark.
SI.com gives Crew SC the best ranking of the three publications, putting the Black & Gold at the number two slot overall, noting that the club has lost just once in its previous eight matches.
