[alpinglow]

The phrase through hiker "should be" changed to thruhiker because it just flows better,just like waking up each day to walk 30 miles... I'm sure thruhiker isn't in the Websters Dictionary....maybe you could change that for us?

[BadBopco]

Would you consider posing naked on your Christmas Cars???

[bernieborn]

Hor Devours should be changed to First Food. So HotForWords who do you talk to on the phone? Hmmmmmmm?

[chiellini89]

Americans have butchered the English language to an invidious degree already, please don't encourage it any further! Having said this, I found the explanation of teh Dime very interesting indeed, thank you

[endlessrskies]

im getting really sick of people that hate america, ya im an american, im not extremely proud of it, but i was born here, didnt have a choice, not all of us are as stupid as our government

[Eastern13]

WTF.....

[chailizard]

You mean stolen from the English penny. I guess you're not giving it back to us exactly...

[shizo663]

penny comes from pfennig =) xD

[Ardenwolfe]

I really love how informative these videos are. Of course, it's not hard on the eyes either. ;)

[marsie2393]

what about the phrase nickel and dime

[mightymike1978]

Your answer "might" seems to be not correct...

The German word "pfennig" comes, another idea, from the celtic word "penn" which has been adopted by the germans and means "head".

"Penn" itself has been used by the Gauls to specify the latin/roman coin named denarius.

But, and this is more likely, the word "Pfennig" comes from the German word "Pfand" which means refund/mortgage.

[Adam05550]

the word knee and knight and knuckle can all be easier

[BeyondThePale21]

"Americans got confused and someone decided to drop the s" - too funny. You've created a mystery not solved one! And the comments section is way too small to handle the words which are currently undergoing spelling changes..let alone those which should or will soon change. Maybe "someone" will write to you anyway. And the 2hotforwords comment below....that was funny too! "The entire American language.....lol

[maqman123]

its hors d'oeuvres not hors devours. its from french. it means finger food but the literal french translation means outside of normal works :P

[bordellorocker]

I wish she was calling me =)

The entire American language came from the days that America was an English/Irish Settlement/Colony. It has since evolve into a different language American.

[runegeezy]

[Orannis01]

Uk spelling is 'colour' US version is Color. Same with Honour ect, the lazy Yanks brutalised our language and dropped the 'u'. And they also spelling things with a 'z', like surprised.

[arodisgod13]

imao wut r the odds that the dr christian shepperd is actually a character in lost who is the protagonists - jack's father and who i think is deeply involved in the future story

[valhala56]

I thought Dr sheppard was the guy from the 1950's they made the movie the fugitive, the man with an arm.

[Helabi34]

she has too russian face too me

[nezpercenathan]

Bit of trivia- the U.S. mint has never minted a "penny" coin, though we call them that. All such coins struck with the word "cent", not penny. There were state pennies when states did their own minting, but never a U.S. penny!

[nezpercenathan]

Change the spelling of colonel, for crying out loud, it is pronounced ker nul !

[EastCountyGirl]

Omg, pneumonia!

I hate how it's spelled.

I love you, HotForWords!

[mooneagle609]

Hot for words...how about the meanings of a person's name?

[dvdpage]

You get a full dime (+10). Thanks again

Hottie! You are a great teacher. Cool, clear,

direct,human, on point and factual.

[starstruck83]

lol im not even listening to what shes saying

[woofwoofbone]

Just be sexy

[DarthSheen]

i'm sick of words with the silent k like knight and know, that k needs to go! i think the whole language needs to be reinvented to get rid of all the archaic spellings. Or just change English text to the phonetic alphabet altogether. Literacy rates would improve dramatically.

[dirtmelon]

Dude i agree

[lukaskosplateia]

wow you are a sexy blond xDDD MY GIRLFRIEND IS BLOND TOO BUT NOT SO SEXY LIKE YOU xDD

[JayBounty]

[redletterchurch]

People are always trying to give me their 2 cents worth! But usually their paradigms make no sense! Penny for your thoughts! Excuse me, I need to buy 10,000 shares of the penny-stock IDPI. This is a hot4stocks tip. What is the origin and definition of "pump and dump?" The answer could save you lots of pennies and dimes...

[Rhinehart666]

[A1l2l2e2n4]

No, Annoy1ngRash, she did NOT say "drop the ass". She said "drop the s". You really should learn to tell the difference!

[Frankybags]

Another case of 15 minutes of fame...

[levi22ashmore]

wow i like!

[xoJxoSxoD]

omg, hot for words?your a fucking idiot

[Luigi9913]

it's not your you idiot...it's you're...learn to spell before you call someone else an idiot..you fucking idiot

[peterganley]

Dear Mr xoJxoSxoD, Why did you start your message with "omg". Is it feral youth street slang? Why did you abuse our wonderful tutor, Miss Marina, without any evidence to support your opinion. I struggled to decode the sentence, "your a f ..... idiot" until I realised that you confuse the adjective "your" with "you're", the abbreviated form of "you are" Why did you find it so difficult to find among the English vocab of 500,000 words an alternative to the childish adjective,"f...."?

[Annoy1ngRash]

"drop the ass" did she realy say that????

[cooldaddyjames]

Drop the S you perv.

[ogkiller88]

get a real job bitch!

[jimtoob]

All words that have an "f" sound but are spelled with a "ph" should be changed use an "f." It's more fonetically sound that way, IMHO.

[DigiBullet23]

[psychoelephants]

Wasn't trying to find something wrong, it just weirds me out....Sorry for putting my opinion out there when everyone else is doing the same by saying they think she's hot. =/

[IrohDOW]

they should change the spelling of hotforwords to amazinglyhot

[drpr1221]

Erudite should be changed to Eryudite since the word is pronounced as if there was a "y" before the "u".

[dalcer1]

Dear Hotforwords .......

Change February to FebUary,nobody says the R.

Change Wednesday to Wensday,nobody says the N.

[Akon07a]

Dear Mr T. Atesflo Who is "You"? What is he/she sucking? -- sweets, toffees, lolipops, sticks of liquorice, a baby's dummy? What's the hidden message? Is it a cryptogram, Mr. Tat? Was your comment a sudden whim or have you been thinking about it a long time? Anyroadup, thanks for sharing it with the world-wide audience on "YouTube"

[Anerion2006]

[777uMATu]

[odysseus1250]

Dear Teacher, I have a question. What percent of your viewers are male? Are female Youtubers losing out in their etymological education?

[PantyCoveredButt]

Take the make-up off and that is one ugly lady.

[Thiren111]

I'm not afraid to say it!

If your my teacher - I would like to have a litle fun whit my teacher if you know what I meen

[peterganley]

Dear Mr Thiren, I found it difficult to know what you meant. I can't believe that you think you're is spelled "your", little -"litle", with-"whit" and mean/"meen" Try spell-check on your computer or buy a dictionary or go to an Evening Class. I love the sly dig in the ribs and knowing wink of,"you know what I mean" How old are you?

[plainpainter]

Ok Marina - I so don't believe you are the brains behind this but here are a couple:

hiccough -> hiccup

tonight -> tonite

[dhongskhie15]

i really love you...i'd like to meet you someday and fuck you overnight!!Damn you are so HOT!!

[Dingdogduck]

Creppy. D:

[freebird969]

one letter i think we should drop from a all englaish words should be a ph in front of everythingbecause you don't need it at all so if it makes the same sound as an "f" should why not just put an "f" there instead. i would like to hear your commentary on that plz :D

[VictorSteiner]

oh and because germans didnt have the great vowel shift, the E at the end of pfanne is pronounced NOT like a german i, like you did it

but like ... hm ... let me think about a word ....its like the french word for egg, oef, .. the oe .....

i try to find an english word with that sound ... hm ... don't have my linguistic book close ....

hm its not the same but it comes close to the e in "woodpecker"

short

so Pfanne = Pf A(like in "hard")nn e(close to the short e in woodpecker)

[VictorSteiner]

Pfanne was pronounced totally wrong.

you pronounced it like Pfennig.

but an A in german is much darker then in english.

you pronounced it like germans would have written :

Pfenne. cause a german e sounds like an american a in "fan".

a german a sounds like an a in american "hard".

so pfanne has an a sound like in "hard" not like in "fan".

:D

[emrah3454]

ne dio ola bu karı:D

[timwright32]

you are hot.single?wanna move to australia?

[quesotm]

tiene cara de travesti

[tank940711]

oh man, your so sexy. i would like to see in some other way i can't say, cause there other little kids on here to.

[peterganley]

Dear Mr Tank, Why did you addresss the very feminine Marina as a man - "Oh man, your so sexy" Why did you spell I as "i", you're as "your" and too as "to"? Can I presume that you referred to other viewers as "other little kids" because you also haven't grown up?

[hyperkid86]

i've got a good one... the word is "colonel"... what's that all about? it's pronounced kernel!

[Gregster2448]

The more I watch hotforwords, the more intrigued I am. At first she seemed like just another cam whore wanting some more business. But she really has some interesting explanations. Not to mention she's hot. I wonder what her real name is?

[cmwatchers]

i like her.i like the voice.always nice to watch.

cmwatchers.keep showing hot for words.

[Temque]

through sounds like threw or thru

which sounds like witch

the name Sean pronounced Shawn?

[Jessehlovesyou]

Knife. I think we should drop the "k". When learning to read, I always misread that word as "kuh-knife-ee". And there's no word spelled "nife", so I don't see where that would be a problem.

[grltuesday]

I like it not what I expected Shows how smart blonde's can be & fun with out spreading our legs .

[pacificwaters1]

we should change the spelling of talk, cause we don't pronouce it as 'tall-keh' ... the work 'talk' should really be spelled 'tok'. i love your videos and keep it up.

[darkdevil3434]

oorrooossppuuuuuuuuuuuu

[xxxsomeweirdoxx]

i think deadlydevil speaks for every male in the universe

[DeadlyDevil666]

[21seven]

It is great to have a moment to learn a little something from this beautiful articulate woman. Script or no script we grow a little smarter.Shwing or not!

The web rules!

[818gregd]

Some words that can use a spelling change are, faux pas, physician, and photograpgh.

[Dudeinthem00n]

Colonel is a word which should be re-spelled.

[TJordan1986]

Bologna should have its spelling changed =P

[joseemartin]

I sure hope that you guys don't keep watching shit like this bitch instead of spending time with your girlfriends...because if you do..please burn in hell and goo play in trafic....this stupid bitch doesn't even know what the fuck she is talking about...it's just a script you dumasses......all she wants is to break relationships........for those of you reading this who has a girlfriend..please, spend time with her

[peterganley]

Dear Mr Martin, You think our clever tutor is a "stupid bitch" You describe her explanations as "shit", her audience as "dumb bottoms". Your grasp of English is primitive: "what the f..." "goO play in traFic" and "those of you who HAS a..." Is English not your first language, Josee? Try evening classes. Get a life.

[cheMical31]

OMG !!! I play with you all day and all nigth... Take my dick in your hand :D Uhhhh sexyyyyyyyy :DDD

[NoWayInEarth]

u r a bitch marina , burn in hell u slut

[badasmuthafuka]

[LeSamuorai]

Badasmuthfuka,

Don't even waste your time with NoWayInEarth, it's just a frustrated toll who, if it had the accumulated wealth of all of the pennies and dimes of all of the nations that have ever existed in the history of this planet, there's *still* no way it could get laid.

HotForWords is doing a great job.

[LeSamuorai]

^toll was meant to be troll.

Rolls eyes... 7

[in2wishn]

I just stumbled on your site..and find you extremely "tantalizing" and entertaining.

I wondered...where did "holy cow" come from...and are there any sayings from your country you'd like to share?

Warmest Regards,
