[Etymology]
Middle English gain, gein "profit, advantage" from Old Norse gagn "benefit, advantage, use" from Proto-Germanic *gagan- (“‘gain’”). Akin to Icelandic gagn "gain, advantage, use", Swedish gagn "benefit, profit", Danish gavn "gain", Gothic gageigan "to gain", Old Norse gegn "ready"; cf. Middle English gainen "to be of use, profit, avail", Icelandic and Swedish gagna "to avail, help", Danish gavne "to benefit".The Middle English word was reinforced, and its frequency strengthened, due to similarity in form and meaning to an unrelated Middle French word gain "advancement, cultivation", with which it was confused. Middle French gain is a contraction of Old French gaaing, ga(a)igne, a noun derivative of gaaignier "to till, earn, win", also of Germanic origin, but from a different root, Frankish waidanjan "to pasture, graze, hunt for food" from Proto-Germanic *waiðī, waiðō (“‘pasture, field, hunting ground’”); cf. Old High German weidanōn "to hunt, forage for food" (German Weide "pasture"), Old Norse veiðr "hunting", Old English wāþ "hunting, chase, pursuit".

[Etymology]
- Unknown, but possibly from shoad (“‘loose stone and rubble’”), from Old English scádan (“‘to divide’”). Shoad was of inferior quality for building.

[Noun]
shoddy (uncountable)
1.A low-grade cloth made from by-products of wool processing, or from recycled wool.
2.1849, “A Statistical Outline of the Present Condition & Progress of the Anglo-Saxon Race”, The Anglo-Saxon, page 123:
Formerly, shoddy cloth was “used only for padding, and such like purposes, but now blankets, flushings, druggets, carpets, and table covers, cloth for pilot and Petersham great” coats, &c., are either wholly or partly made of shoddy, which, in fact, is “occasionally worn by everybody. The beautiful woollen table covers are made wholly of shoddy, being printed by aqua-fortis from designs drawn in London and Manchester, and cut on holly and other blocks, on the spot.”

[Noun]
Wikipedia has an article on:SoftwareWikipediasoftware (uncountable)
1.(computing) Encoded computer instructions, usually modifiable (unless stored in some form of unalterable memory such as ROM). Compare hardware.
2.1958, John W. Tukey, "The Teaching of Concrete Mathematics" in The American Mathematical Monthly, vol. 65, no. 1 (Jan. 1958), pp 1-9:
The "software" comprising the carefully planned interpretive routines, compilers, and other aspects of automative programming are at least as important to the modern electronic calculator as its "hardware" of tubes, transistors, wires, tapes and the like.
3.1995, Paul Niquette, Softword: Provenance for the Word ‘Software’:
As originally conceived, the word "software" was merely an obvious way to distinguish a program from the computer itself. A program comprised sequences of changeable instructions each having the power to command the behavior of the permanently crafted machinery, the "hardware."

cirrostratus
[[English]]
ipa :-eɪtəs[Noun]
cirrostratus (uncountable)
1.(meteorology) A principal high-level cloud type appearing as a whitish veil, usually fibrous but sometimes smooth, which may totally cover the sky and which often produces halo phenomena, either partially or completely. Sometimes a banded aspect may appear, but the intervals between the bands are filled with thinner cloud veil. The edge of the veil of cirrostratus may be straight and clean-cut, but more often it is irregular and fringed with cirrus. Some of the ice crystals that comprise the cloud are large enough to fall and thereby produce a fibrous aspect. Cirrostratus occasionally may be so thin and transparent as to render it almost indiscernible, especially through haze or at night. At such times, the existence of a halo may be the only revealing feature, such as producing a halo around the moon. Abbreviated: Cs.
