back2basics- Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 Not to want to get too graphic, but if your standing on a platform waiting for a train and it arrives, the train has just come... i guess you crazzy Americans changed and dropped some letters over the years.

back2basics- Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 Well....F.U.C.K = For unconcenting carnal knowledge, which was written on the doors of sex offenders in the dark ages.So it's just an acronym, tell that to people when they get offended. I find it offends them even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it offends them even more. I don't that that's right for two reasons...1-- its not latin like SPQR (and I dont think there's a k in latin either)2-old english was a lot different as those of us who read beowulf or chaucer's canterberry tales in the original damn near incomprehsible form can tell you, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiatmusica Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 oh yeah cum means "with" in latin (but its pronounced coom-rhymes with zoom)thought i'd throw that in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

back2basics- Posted August 8 Report Share Posted August 8 Yeh we didn't speak latin in England in the dark ages Fiat. Fuck is an English word and isn't dervived from a root word. All the words of the acronym are used in old English..The consent of king story i have herd before, but it's always in conection with the stocks (and getting peleted by fruit), so if it's allowed why would the write it on the stocks while getting fruit thrown at them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't call the language that was spoken then "english"technically it was saxon and after william and his boys crossed the channel you got a lot of norman french thrown in..and the "english" legal system after that point used law french which is bastard cross between latin and french Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiatmusica Posted August 8 Report Share Posted August 8 here's a quotation from a newsgroup discussing this stuff________________________________________On Sun, 12 Jan 1997, Matthew R. Popalisky <mpopali@c...> wrote:> > Since 'pluck yew' is rather difficult to say ... the difficult> > consonant cluster at the beginning has gradually changed to a> > labiodental fricative 'f'>> Is this true?The jingling you're hearing is the bells on your leg as it's beingpulled.The bit I snipped above is something I *can* address: it isemphatically *not* true. The word "fuck" has various theories as toits derivation, but the two I've seen are1. in Mirriam-Webster's New Collegiate, "perh. of Scand origin; akinto Norw dial. fukka to copulate, Sw dial focka to copulate, strike,push, fock penis; perh. akin to L pugnus fist, pungere to prick,sting, Gk pygm<e-> fist"2. I don't recall the details, but derived from a Germanic or Dutchword meaning "to strike". Since Scandinavian languages are Germanicin origin, the two derivations merge not too far back.(BTW: if anyone tries to pawn off on you that hoary old myth about"police blotters saying 'Fornication Under Consent of the King'", youcan tell them to shove off. *New* words *coined* as acronyms didn'texist in English until the 20th Century. Police weren't in Britainuntil the 19th Century.)For more details about this and other urban legends, see the UrbanLegends home page, <a href="http://www.urbanlegends.com/">.Daniel "hoping nobody is offended by a simple discussion of etymology"de Lincoln Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
