[What does smile mean , the meaning of smilies, smiley list ]

Many words that have come to us from other languages ​​have become so firmly used and assimilated that now only a linguist can establish their foreign origin. These are the words "chest", "doctor", "car" and even "abracadabra", which, as it turned out, has Greek roots. But "flash" is clearly not a native Russian word. It’s too short, hissing and generally unusual. In addition, it is polysemantic, which is typical for English words. Today we will analyze its main meanings, find out how the word "flash" is translated and what derivational potential it has.

How it all started

The energetic, impetuous sounding of the English word flash fits very well with its meaning of "flash, instant." Like many words in Shakespeare's language, it easily and without any changes turns into the verb "flash, sweep". Anything that moves quickly, in one motion, can be described by the word "flash". In principle, this connotation was transferred to the Russian language, as we will see later.

Spelling difficulties

The wide open sound [æ] in the English word is most similar to the Russian [e], slightly mixed with [a]. However, to the question "how is the word" flash "spelled?" the spelling dictionary of the Russian language answers unequivocally: with the letter "e". This option is adopted by analogy with other borrowed words like "brandy", "diet", "energy".

The use of the letter "e" in Russian does not differ in frequency and is rather considered an exception to the rule. Although, when pronouncing these words aloud, it is the sound [e] that is most often heard. In the end, all of us since school times are accustomed to the fact that in the great and mighty, not everything is written and heard as it is. "Flash" is one of those very cases.

High tech

Information processing is always a lightning-fast process. Therefore, the use of the term "flash technology" in the IT sphere is more than justified. Any more or less confident PC user often comes across the word "flash". The meaning of the word here manages to split in two.

Let's dwell on computer graphics Here flash is a popular technology for creating animation for Internet sites. Beautiful blinking buttons, flying butterflies and snowflakes are all examples of Flash animation in action. The object approach allows you to significantly save time and effort when creating such pictures, because you can draw just a few frames and set the desired trajectory for them or an algorithm for changing one frame to another. The work will be really lightning fast. You can also add sound and videos to Flash animations. Flash technology has become a powerful, uncomplicated and therefore popular tool for creating your own videos, games and applications.

If we talk about information storage technologies, then the concept of "flash drive" is applied to media with electrically reprogrammable memory. The lightning speed of information processing is worthy of applying the short and capacious word "flash" to it. Electric charge (why not lightning?) Is constantly changing and is registered in a special semiconductor pocket located on the "flash drive".

Cards on the table

The ways of the borrowed word in the language are inscrutable. Flush, a popular term in poker, passed into Russian, without asking a close relative of the flash form "flush". Strictly speaking, flush means a sudden rush of water or embarrassment, as well as abundance. In poker, this word also describes abundance in some way - five cards of the same suit, coming in any order. In terms of its strength, a flush is second only to a full house and four of a kind.

An extremely pleasant variation of a flush is a straight flush, in which all cards come one after another in strict order of precedence, for example, seven, eight, nine, ten and jack of hearts. The lowest straight flush starts with an ace and ends with a five. And the eldest got the proud name "royal flush" - it starts with ten, and closes an ace. If a player is on their way to a flush, this is called a flush-draw.

Poker can hardly be called a lightning-fast game, because it requires the utmost concentration and discretion. Nevertheless, the term "flush" has firmly taken root in the Russian-speaking environment of players and has become the hallmark of poker.

Leap into the past

A short "flash" is an ideal basis for word formation. By adding it to any other word, you can give it speed, brevity and instantaneousness. Let's take a look at this using the term "flashback" as an example.

The English preposition back, meaning backward movement, merging with the already well-known flash, gives an excellent capacious name for a technique in art. The character of a film, game or play is instantly transported by his thoughts to his past, where he indulges in nostalgia, tries to answer an important question, or simply says goodbye to life. This "time travel" usually does not last long. Soon, the storyline resumes and the character returns in the present. In the literature, such a technique is called a retrospective and can last a long time.

There is also a reverse technique - a flash forward. As you might guess, here the viewer or the player is dealing with a leap into the future. Often, flash forward is used at the very beginning of a feature film or series to stir up intrigue and allow viewers to guess the plot themselves.

In the right place at the right time

A huge crowd of people of different ages, occupations and appearance. They don't know each other. But nevertheless, here and now they are side by side, presenting a common idea. Flash mob literally translates to "instant crowd" and it is a very accurate description of the phenomenon popular today.

A large group of people gathers at a predetermined location to perform some action, also called a flash mob scenario. After the completion of the script, the participants disperse. As a rule, such massive actions do not last long. Participants learn about flash mobs from the media, mainly various social networks.

Fast as lightning

It would be strange if such an expressive word did not seep from common nouns into proper names. Yes, not simple, but for the most that neither is superheroes. Such a character was The Flash, who appeared from the pen of the artists and screenwriters of DC Comics in 1940 in the first issue of Flash Comics. Of course, the main ability of the Flash is prohibitive speeds, exceeding the speed of light. Flash's speed of reaction, his speed of thought also amazes comic book fans year after year. Later versions of the Flash can drive the internal vibrations of their body to such a speed that they gain the ability to pass through solid objects. Internal vibrations help Flash destroy buildings and create earthquakes with one touch.

An extremely popular superhero, The Flash has become the main character in many films and TV series on several occasions. The television series of the same name was released in 2014, and its third season is expected to be released in October 2016.

Common features

And yet, what does the word "flash" mean? All of these values ​​have one common element - a flash of lightning. Instant, vibrant and memorable. It is possible that in the future humanity will invent many things in the names of which this word will be appropriate.

"Goat". Who used this gesture? What does it mean?

"Goat", also known as "Corn", "horns", "folding"- a gesture in the form of the index finger and little finger, put forward, while the middle and ring fingers are pressed to the palm. The gesture is shaped like the head of a horned animal.

The meanings of the gesture are varied
In a number of European countries, the two-finger gesture was used by superstitious people to protect against the evil eye and witches, as an analogue of spitting over the shoulder.

Popularized by the singer Ronnie Dio, "Goat" is often used by representatives of various musical subcultures as a sign of approval for the performer. Especially known among rockers and metalheads

"Raspaltsovka" was used by the new Russians as a sign of their own superiority. This gesture was borrowed by them from hooligans and criminals, among whom it initially meant a threat to gouge out the eyes

In Italy and a number of other southern countries, the sign is considered an offensive hint that the one to whom it is shown is a "cuckold"

In the language of the deaf and dumb, the gesture replaces the letter Y

Even in ancient times, the "goat" was used with very serious intentions, killing two birds with one stone - protecting themselves and sending a curse on their enemies. In modern palmistry, the fingers necessary for the "goat" - the index and little fingers - are under the jurisdiction of Jupiter and Mercury, respectively. The first was known in Roman mythology as the supreme god (the same as the Greek Zeus), the second was considered a guide to the world of the Dead. Thus, the ancients, making a "goat", simultaneously turned to two gods, one asking for protection, and the other for the death of an enemy. By the way, when the Egyptian pharaohs were sent to another world, special figures with fingers folded into the same "goat" were installed inside their tombs for protection, thereby protecting the tombs from the encroachments of the curious and selfish, for the "offenders" were in for a curse

It is the second, the cursing meaning of "goat" gradually became better known. Much has been said about this gesture at different times, especially in the Middle Ages. They saw the horns of the devil in the "goat", then three sixes - a devilish number. It was believed that this is how the witches greeted each other

All the same "Goat" became the Symbol of the Ancients(it must be understood, the spirits), which, according to the Arabic book on black magic, the Necronomicon, it was possible to summon these same Ancients if necessary. Some even now believe that this gesture is unnatural and displeasing to God and, therefore, showing it is blasphemy. Many fans admit that at a concert you can meet a "goat" not every song, but the most difficult songs

By the way, it is interesting that the "goat" in its shape resembles the mudra (magic gesture in the form of a certain position of the fingers) of Energy. The difference is that the middle and ring fingers in the Energy mudra touch the thumb with their tips, and not just pressed. In the east (and not only), treatment with the help of such gestures is widely practiced. Moreover, the name of many mudras goes back not so much to religion as to Eastern mythology.
In general, no matter from which side you look, "goat" is a typically pagan sign

Ronnie Dio(American rock musician, vocalist and composer) popularized the "goat", a finger-horn gesture that he often showed to the audience at concerts

This gesture, according to Dio himself, he learned from his grandmother. The gesture was part of a superstition that wards off the evil eye and evil spirits, like spitting over the shoulder. The demonstration of the "goat" in such a context, combined with the mystical texts of Black Sabbath, created a special atmosphere of concerts, a sense of the presence of otherworldly forces

Encyclopedia of Brockhaus and Efron

(Cacus) - a person woven by Italian mythology into the legend of Hercules; is either a fire-breathing three-headed monster devouring travelers and flocks, or just a wild shepherd. The legend about K. is localized in various places in Italy (in Campania, Tibure), but mainly in Rome, at the foot of the Palatine. Hercules, leading the bulls of Geryon from the Far West, settled down to rest on the site of the Forum boarium, in the future Rome. While he was sleeping, K., who lived in a cave in the nearby Palatine, kidnapped some of the bulls, and led them into the cave backwards, so that one could think that the bulls left the cave, and did not enter it. Then K. filled up the entrance to the cave with a stone, but Hercules, having opened the theft, destroyed the obstacle, killed K. with his club and sacrificed to Jupiter Inventor. The aborigines living in the place of Rome, with their king Evandros (see), gave divine honors to Hercules. erecting in honor of him Ara Maxima. Hercules himself prescribed the ritual of his cult and entrusted it to the head of the Potizii and Pinarii clans. The last part of the legend is an etiological myth that aims to explain the origin of names and cults that have become obscure (Forum Boarium, Jupiter Inventor, etc.). The legend is based on the common Aryan myth about the struggle of Gromovnyak with the demons of darkness, clouds, obscuring, as if hiding in their bowels the luminaries. Wed Breal, "Hercule et Cacus" (1863). Cave K. and the stairs leading into it were shown on the Palatine in historical time; now it and all the places around it have been excavated.
