Dictionary.com | Maringouin | Word of the Day

Maringouin “mosquito” is a borrowing from Louisiana French. Although Louisiana has been part of the United States for over 200 years, from its time as part of the former French Empire, it has retained its own dialect of French, which has incorporated vocabulary from English, Spanish, and Indigenous American languages. Unlike many words that Louisiana French has borrowed from local Indigenous languages, maringouin is allegedly a borrowing by way of standard French marigoin from mbarigui in...

Dictionary.com | Rebec | Word of the Day

Rebec “a Renaissance fiddle” is a borrowing by way of Middle French from Old French rebebe, with a phonetic alteration possibly because of the influence of bec “beak,” after the shape of the instrument. Rebebe derives from Arabic rabāb, the noun form of the verb rabba “to control, be master.” From the same Semitic root as rabba are the Hebrew- and Aramaic-origin terms rabbi, rabbinical, and rebbe, which all mean “master” or “my master” in their languages of origin. Despite the similarity in...

Dictionary.com | Terraqueous | Word of the Day

Terraqueous “consisting of land and water” is a compound of Latin terra “land” and English aqueous “watery,” which is based on Latin aqua “water.” As we learned from the recent Words of the Day terrene and torrid, terra once referred specifically to dry land, and the term ultimately won out over tellūs (compare the recent Word of the Day telluric) in evolving into the words for “land” in modern Romance languages, such as French terre, Romanian țară, and Spanish tierra. In contrast, aqua did...

Name Americanization Patterns: From Rochel to Rose, Mendel to Max

JEWISH IMMIGRANTS FREQUENTLY changed their first names after arriving in the United States as a way of integrating themselves into their new culture. I studied the nature of such name changes from a linguistics perspective for my master’s thesis in 2017. As part of my research, I drew data from approximately 1,500 naturalization records from Brooklyn, New York. Three-quarters of the immigrants I surveyed had altered their names. My goal was to determine the relationship between the given...

From Rochel to Rose and Mendel to Max: First Name Americanization Patterns Among...

There has been a dearth of investigation into the distribution of and the alterations among Jewish given names. Whereas Jewish surnames are a popular topic of study, first names receive far less analysis. Because Jewish immigrants to the United States frequently changed their names, this thesis can serve as a guide to genealogists and other scholars seeking to trace the paths of Jewish immigrants from Europe.

Edentulism, the loss of one or more teeth, can be a difficult experience to endure. Not only is there a psychological toll that missing teeth and an incomplete smile can take, but there are physiological consequences that can manifest as well. When a tooth is lost, the onus of biting and chewing is placed on the remaining teeth to a greater degree, and if multiple teeth have fallen out, the teeth that are still present will have to work twice as hard to achieve the same effect of which a full...

Accelerate Now Digital Marketing Geo-Fencing Webpage Text

Geo-fencing is a means for businesses to increase their revenue by tracking mobile devices’ locations and providing targeted advertisements. Similar to how borders divide land among countries and how surveys detail the boundary lines of real estate, a geo-fence is a virtual polygon that advertises to those who walk through its invisible perimeter. Unlike surveys and borders, however, geo-fences are both flexible and able to be overlapped. A geo-fence can be placed and sized according to the...

Douglas Hamill Dental Bridges Webpage Text

The bridge is one of several types of prostheses that equalize pressure in the mouth. Bridges are false teeth that, when inserted into a gap, give the appearance of a full smile. However, superficial appeal is not the sole reason to request a bridge; when a tooth falls out, the surrounding teeth must work harder to bite and chew, creating greater strain and potentially weakening these teeth. Our teeth work together to complete a variety of daily functions, such as speaking and eating, and...

Teach Dental Veneers Webpage Text

Despite our best efforts, our smiles can lose their luster over time. Teeth can become discolored due to dietary choices, crowns can wear away from grinding and daily use, and cavities can have complications that linger on the enamel. One option for restoring a smile to its optimal appearance is the installation of veneers. Dental veneers are not a permanent fix for any underlying condition that has affected the strength and health of teeth, and they are not recommended for individuals who...
