barrel
[[English]]
ipa :/ˈbæɹəl/[Etymology]
editFrom Middle English barel, from Anglo-Norman baril, Old French baril, bareil (“barrel”), of uncertain origin. An attempt to link baril to Old French barre (“bar, bolt”) (compare Medieval Latin barra (“bar, rod”)) via assumed Vulgar Latin *barrīculum meets the phonological requirement, but fails to connect the word semantically. The alternate connection to Frankish *baril, *beril or Gothic 𐌱𐌴𐍂𐌹𐌻𐍃 (bērils, “container for transport”), from Proto-Germanic *barilaz, *bērilaz (“barrel, jug, container”), from Proto-Indo-European *bʰer- (“to carry, transport”), is more plausible as it connects not only the form of the word but also the sense; equivalent to bear + -le. Compare also Old High German biril (“jug, large pot”), Luxembourgish Bärel, Bierel (“jug, pot”), Old Norse berill (“barrel for liquids”), Old English byrla (“barrel of a horse, trunk, body”). More at bear.
[Noun]
editbarrel (plural barrels)

OK
[[English]]
ipa :/ˌəʊˈkeɪ/[Anagrams]
edit
- KO, Ko, ko
[Etymology 1]
editOrigin disputed. Wikipedia lists many possible etymologies, of which the most widely accepted is that it is an abbreviation of oll/orl korrect, a comical spelling of all correct, which first appeared in print in The Boston Morning Post on March 23, 1839, as part of a fad for similar fanciful abbreviations in the United States during the late 1830s. The expression became popular through its use in the presidential campaign of Martin Van Buren in 1840 and then slowly acquired other meanings.The Choctaw word oke, okeh (“it is so”), common in Choctaw translations of the Bible, could also explain OK's variety of affirmative definitions. Additionally, okeh was the most common etymology of okay in dictionaries until the 1960s, and linguistically predates Boston's O.K.. However, this theory suffers from the fact that the Choctaw language was relatively obscure and generally spoken (sometimes in a pidgin form) mainly with African-American slaves.

shuttle
[[English]]
ipa :/ˈʃʌtəl/[Anagrams]
edit
- hutlets, lusteth
[Etymology]
editFrom a merger of two words:
- Middle English shutel, shotel, schetel, schettell, schyttyl, scutel (“bar; bolt”), from Old English sċyttel, sċutel (“bar; bolt”), equivalent to shut + -le
- Middle English shutel, schetil, shotil, shetel, schootyll, shutyll, schytle, scytyl (“missile; projectile; spear”), from Old English sċytel, sċutel (“dart, arrow”), from Proto-Germanic *skutilaz.The name for a loom weaving instrument, recorded from 1338, is from a sense of being "shot" across the threads. The back-and-forth imagery inspired the extension to "passenger trains" in 1895, aircraft in 1942, and spacecraft in 1969, as well as older terms such as shuttlecock.
[Noun]
editshuttle (plural shuttles)
1.(weaving) A tool used to carry the woof back and forth between the warp threads on a loom.
2.1611, The Holy Bible, […] (King James Version), London: […] Robert Barker, […], OCLC 964384981, Job 7:6:
My dayes are ſwifter then a weauers ſhuttle, and are ſpent without hope.
3.1638, George Sandys, "A Paraphrase upon Job":
Like shuttles through the loom, so swiftly glide
My feather'd hours, and all my hopes deride!.
4.2013 November 11, Claus-Dieter Brauns, “Food and Clothing”, in Mru: Hill People on the Border of Bangladesh[1], Basel: Birkhäuser, page 131:
By placing the sword edgewise, the weaver keeps the countershed open, in order to shoot through the shuttle.
5.The sliding thread holder in a sewing machine, which carries the lower thread through a loop of the upper thread, to make a lock stitch.
6.A transport service (such as a bus or train) that goes back and forth between two or more places.
The shuttle bus runs to the airport on a half-hourly basis form the central station.
7.2012, Andrew Martin, Underground Overground: A passenger's history of the Tube, Profile Books, →ISBN, pages 76, 77:
And until December 2010 the northern stretch of the 'Extension' featured a charming side-show: the Chesham Shuttle. [...] But the people of Chesham moaned about the shuttle: the waiting room at Chalfont & Latimer was too hot, or too cold; there were leaves on the line. [...] On 12 Dec 2010 the shuttle ceased operations and Metropolitan trains began to terminate at both Amersham and Chesham.
8.Such a transport vehicle; a shuttle bus; a space shuttle.
9.2004, Dawn of the Dead, 1:14:20:
You're saying we take the parking shuttles, reinforce them with aluminum siding and then head to the gun store where our friend Andy plays some cowboy-movie, jump-on-the-wagon bullshit.
10.Any other item that moves repeatedly back and forth between two positions, possibly transporting something else with it between those points (such as, in chemistry, a molecular shuttle).
11.A shuttlecock.
12.A shutter, as for a channel for molten metal.
