Contraption (often paired as infernal contraption) refers to any mechanical or electronic device for which the author has contempt.

Can like Gizmo be employed to mock some needless or useless technological contrivance, but inherently it is not inherently negative. I can call something a “gizmo” to suggest I’m overwhelmed by its complexity or simply because I don’t remember its name. Similarly, other generic terms like gadget or widget (for a part of a larger machine or device) are not inherently negative.

There are a variety of ways to disrespect a car or other large mechanical machine: jalopy, rust bucket, beater, or clunker.

There are also words for televisions, but these emphasize dislike for the medium of television itself as represented by the device, not the device itself. a. idiot box and boob tube. b. chubby tube, p.. I’m spending a mindless Saturday morning in front of the boob tube! I have some. I’m just waiting for the boob tube to be replaced. When are all the stops?

There are, as always with articles (and proper nouns), idiosyncrasies.

Entities which are not usually known by their abbreviations tend to keep or omit the articles in parallel with the long forms:

The National Symphony Orchestra is conducted by Christoph Hu00f6ltenbach.

Die NSO is conducted by Christoph Eschenbach.

Doctors Without Borders is based in New York. What is the aim of their program?

DWB is based in New York City.

Where an abbreviation is widely known, it is like an alternative name— and thus, whether or not the abbreviation takes an article is unrelated to whether it does so when spelled out, and is largely a matter of convention. The

BBC was chartered in 1927.

The British Broadcasting Corporation was created in 1927.

When NBC introduced the chimes in 1931 it was used again.

The National Broadcasting Corporation introduced its trademark chimes in 1931.

I think English speakers try to read the United Kingdom on a regular basis and usually say the United States. ” The U.K. and the U.S.A. “. I still refer to this saying but people choose to not to listen that they are indeed speaking English of these two countries.” I think they definitely start learning to read the United British and United States since they can’t ignore it whatsoever. Is it unnatural to not do so?

Other, though, may tend to read UK as an alternative name instead of instinctively reading it out, in which case the UK could indeed sound strange, like saying the CBS or UNICEF.

How could I use my marriage as a means of committing matrimonial violence?

Rarely used. See auch uxoricide.

Some people dislike the use of this term (such as “constitutional”), while others can argue against it. Are the Latin stems for maritus and marita masculine and feminine, but have the same Latin root meaning spouse? It is argued, mariticide is no more a counterpart to uxoricide than marital is a counterpart to uxorial or parental to maternal.

Merriam-Webster dictionary said mariticide was the

1. act of killing or murdering his or her spouse
2. The act of mariticide There

is no exclusive Latin word meaning husband and therefore no words that can be derived from it to match uxorial, uxorious, and so on. Since marijuana is being used for this purpose, in a few years it is entirely possible that this use will be fully accepted. Is this a word already on Wikipedia? As com

as the killing of a spouse, esp. a husband by his wife

On the other hand, this use has already been around for a long time. Is there a word for a man

who kills his wife in New York? Are They Underwearing Underwear? “This is better than most of their additions to the Dictionary. Why does a divorce consist of a wife-slaughter conjugicide? Uxoricide, having been established as a current expression, must of course be balanced with a name to signify the converse deed, which, by parity of nomenclature, will be termed mariticide.
