Smart-arse Latin Comments

Featured Replies

When I first seen them they did look smart.

Now it seems that half the population of TV has pissed off to www.latinfortossers.com and gone on a bit of a cut 'n paste bender.

Boring as.

Rant over.

Well, what are you whinging about. At least you can read them. I can't and I learnt Latin at school. But as I understand it Latin is part and parcel of our everyday English language. If we were to take all the foreign words out, we wouldn't have much to say to each other. Might be a good thing come to think about it. BTW is bedlam a latin word?

. BTW is bedlam a latin word?

Oooh, I love showing off.

Bedlem is a shortened version of Bethlehem, which come from the hebrew Biet Lechem - meaning house of bread.

How we apply this definition to this place, I will leave to others.

when you show off in future T.M. might be a good idea to spell the forum section correctly, it's bedlAm. :o

As Jo E. Brown said to Jack Lemmon, "Nobody's perfect" :o

Also someone said 'The whole world hates a smartarse' Don't know to which of you two it's meant for though.

No one I like to correct more than TM:

The religious priory of St Mary of Bethlem, in London, was confiscated by King Edward 3rd in 1375, and used for lunatics from 1377. In 1403/1404 it had just six insane patients and three who were sane. This old Bedlam was a small institution (on a site south of what is now Liverpool Street Station), even in the 17th century when it had about 30 patients. Its showy replacement, the Moorfields Bedlam, opened in 1676. Thus bedlam became a word for insanity, or general craziness ...

Now, did I know that, or am I a sad git who goes googling things just for 2 seconds of smartarsery on internet forums?

when you point your finger at somebody lampard10, three fingers point back at you. :o

Not normally.......it's just one from the wife :D

Leave me out of this one boys.

My handbag is still under repair after the Gay bashing I received earlier in the week.

But yes, Marilyn Monroe's, Tony Curtis's and Jack Lemmon's best film.

Some say, including me, the best comedy film ever.

In all humility, the history of the institute by the name of BedlAm, as Googled by the Honourable Pandit, is correct.

However the name BedlAm comes from Bethlehem, which comes from the Hebrew Biet Lechem.

The fact that I lived in Israel for 10 years, can speak Hebrew and am not greatly enamoured of Google (see the joke George cancelled after 5 mins in the Joke Forum), could have some slight influence on the little knowledge I have expressed in this matter.

As an old arab might say if he found the finkle finger of Pundit* in his bread pudding, "Coos Imach".

* this is an unintentional fruedian slip - the ex-editor of a Danish newspaper - who now lives in Israel is named Pundik.

from 'Some Like it Hot' right? last line of a great film. :o

I had heard about this movie and so DL it not long ago and put it in the hub. I didn't really get it .. and no one got it from me while I had it shared. Maybe it's a generation thing.

Oh...I lived in Israel for quite a while as well. Tel-Aviv & Nahariya. In fact I had an Israeli client today to show around some houses ( yes, running a pub is not all I do) . Took him aback when I greeted him in Hebrew. It needs brushing up a lot, but I still reckon I speak more Hebrew than Thai. And I can read the same amount. Nothing.

So TM does that make you a Jewish Dane that travels between the Pennines and BKK? :o

No - but a British, born and bread, Catholic Jew (blame my Great Grandma) who spent 10 years ha Eretz, not far from Hedera, got a bit miffed in the Yom Kippur War, and then was based over 20 years in Denmark until I discovered the delights of LOS, but has returned to the Pennines to educate our youngest, travelling back to our farm north of Sukkothai, whenever we can - could be fairly close (but don't tell the Moog, he'll only hold it against me).

La Heet Tra'ot (can never get the hang of these transliterations),

Shalom,

We'll have to discuss the relative merits of Arak, Schnapps and Lao, followed by a few beers when we're next over - should be winter 2006.

I've cancelled the dinner party at the palace and pencilled you in.

mange tak (that's Danish for touda rabba, if you've forgotten),

Not an error.

But what the Moog would call, poetic bus card.

Come on you reds!

I do apologise, never been into football until now.

Is Insight in Istanbul or just on the edge of his seat somewhere?

I do not believe it!

What an incredible game football is.

I switched the telly off after the first half when Milan were 3-0 up and had outplayed Liverpool so much, the Reds looked like a bunch of girls ( no sexism here just plain observation).

I only suspected something glorious (the only function of soccer) had happened, when I saw Scampy's posting.

Thank God I'm an Everton supporter.

I watched most of the game, but missed all six goals. I was late tuning in,I went to do something on the computor just before half time,back in the 45th minute. Thought they're gonna get hammered,so turned off,but switched back in the 65th minute to see by how many. What a shock.

Anyway TM................had,steim,shalosh,arba,hamesh,shesh,shaver,schmony,tesher,esse etc. is no problem in Hebrew. But counting up to a hundred in Dansk. That's a job and a half. I'm sure it must be one of the hardest languages to count in.

Farvel.................have i god dag. My Swedish is much better.

Watched the game last night Scamp from the comfort of my own home.

Probably to the discomfort of my neighbours considering the way I was shouting at the telly during the second half :o

Absolute quality...
