Words with strange origins
QUIZ
• Quiz- The story goes that a Dublin theater proprietor in 1791 by the
name of Richard Daly made a bet that he could, within forty-eight
hours, make a nonsense word known throughout the city, and that
the public would supply a meaning for it. After a performance one
evening, he gave his staff cards with the word ‘quiz’ written on
them, and told them to write the word on walls around the city. The
next day the strange word was the talk of the town, and within a
short time it had become part of the language.
TATTOO
• Tattoo-The “tattoo” gets its name from Polynesian word “tatau” which
simply means “a mark made on the skin”. The term in this form
developed out of the Samoan word ‘tattow’ meaning ‘to strike’.
• It’s first known usage in English appeared in 1786 in Captain James
Cook’s journal Endeavour, in which he described the tradition of
tattooing among the people he met during his voyage in Polynesia. The
practice of tattooing existed in England before this time, but before we
acquired the loanword from Polynesia it was referred to as a form of
‘painting’. In fact, when a native Indonesia man of New Guinea was
sadly brought over to the UK as a slave in 1691, he was known among
English people as the “Painted Prince” due to the markings on his body.
NIGHTMARE

• Nightmare- It’s pretty clear where the first part of the word
“nightmare” comes from. But what about the “mare” part? While
the equestrians among you will wonder if it has anything to do with
horses, this is misleading. A “mare” actually refers to a female goblin
that sits on you, suffocates you while you sleep and tries to induce
bad thoughts
ABBREVIATIONS
• Everyone loves a bit of code, and acronyms and abbreviations are great little tools that
make communication faster and more fun, especially when trying to type fast on a
slippery smartphone. And in English, you really can’t get away from them.
• But first, a quick cheat sheet:
• -Abbreviations are shortened versions of words and sometimes end in a period.
• -Acronyms are pronounceable, so you read them out as if they’re a name, and are
formed by using the first letter of each word in a phrase (such as NASA – National
Aeronautics and Space Administration).
• Many text abbreviations are also used as slang, especially by younger generations, and
keeping up-to-date on the latest text shorthand can help you communicate better with
your audience.
EXAMPLES:

• BRB – Be right back


• TGIF – Thank God it’s Friday (Sung by workers worldwide each Friday
afternoon – the weekend is here!)
• ASAP – As soon as possible
• NVM: Nevermind
• BTS: Behind the scenes
