 Welcome to the Endnotes, where I put all the fun facts I can't fit into the main videos. Today, some extra bits of information from my video about chauvinism. And if you haven't seen that yet, click on the card. As we saw there, the word chauvinism referred originally to excessive French patriotism. Well, the parallel word jingoism referred originally to excessive English patriotism. It first appears in the late 19th century and comes from the word jingo as in bi-jingo. Jingo seems to have been originally a nonsense word from the 17th century, used by magicians in the phrase hey-jingo to call for something to reappear, the opposite of hey-presto used when an object disappears. But the word was soon adopted as a minced oath or taboo deformation of the word Jesus, with bi-jingo being used to translate French paugue by God. Bi-jingo became a common English interjection and was later used in a music hall song calling for an aggressive military stance against Russia during the Russia-Turkish War. The chorus goes, We don't want to fight, but bi-jingo if we do. We've got the ships, we've got the men, we've got the money too. We've fought the bear before, and while we're Britons true, the Russians shall not have Constantinople. Soon after, the word jingo and jingoism were used to refer derisively to blustering patriots and chauvinists calling for war. As always, you can hear even more etymology and history, as well as interviews with a wide range of fascinating people on the Endless Knot podcast, available on all the major podcast platforms, as well as our other YouTube channel. Thanks for watching.
