pedalo

Borrowed from French pédalo, a registered trademark. By surface analysis, pedal + -o.

It is the prelapsarian Polynesia of free love, noble savagery, Kon Tiki rafting and Easter Island statuary, not the Levi’s-wearing, Toyota-driving, pédalo-pushing, efflorescent-cocktails-in-a-split-coconut-serving pseudo-paradise that awaits latter-day travellers.

2001, Stephen Brown, Marketing – the Retro Revolution, London: SAGE Publications, →ISBN, page 139:

On the other hand: I’m sorry the sculpture hurt your feelings. But it’s just art. It can’t harm you. You don’t have to like it – not at all – but it’s going to be gone in a month or so, and you can still use the pedalos while it’s there.

2018 August 16, Marina Hyde, “Sorry to break it to you, far-righters: James Bond is not on your team”, in The Guardian:

(UK, nautical) A small boat propelled by pedals that directly turn external paddles, used for recreation.

frigidaire

/ˌfɹɪdʒɪˈdɛə/

/ˌfɹɪd͡ʒɪˈdɛɹ/

From Frigidaire, proprietary name of a brand of refrigerators, from Latin frīgidārium. Doublet of frigidarium.

He [...] had everything necessary to the Modern Man, / A phonograph, a radio, a car and a frigidaire.

“Have you seen Kipper?” I wouldn't say she snorted, but she certainly sniffed. “Bertie,” she said in a voice straight from the frigidaire, “will you do me a favour?” “Of course. What?” “Don't mention that rat's name in my presence,” she said, and pushed off, the eyelids still weary.

1960, P[elham] G[renville] Wodehouse, chapter XII, in Jeeves in the Offing, London: Herbert Jenkins, →OCLC:

Carpets were spread, divans appeared, as also the latest creation from Italy, a portable frigidaire which held countless bowls of sorbet and iced lemon tea.

mimeograph

Coined by A. B. Dick in 1889 and originally a trade name. From Ancient Greek μῖμος (mîmos), combining form mimeo + -graph.

So it also is in regard to the mimeograph, whose forerunner, the electric pen, was born of Edison's brain in 1877. He had been long impressed by the desirability of the rapid production of copies of written documents, and, as we have seen by a previous chapter, he invented the electric pen for this purpose, only to improve upon it later with a more desirable device

1910, Frank Lewis Dyer, Thomas Commerford Martin, chapter 27, in Edison, His Life and Inventions:

The old “work horse” of the office, the mimeograph, was a starred performer at the National Business Show, which was recently held at the New York Coliseum. Although glamour equipment such as the electronic computers have had most of the headlines in recent years, the mimeograph machine is still grinding out billions of copies of material a year.

1956 November 8, Alexander R. Hammer, “Duplicator Still The ‘Work Horse’”, in The New York Times, →ISSN:

(historical) A machine for making printed copies using typed stencil, eventually superseded by photocopying.

[ˌpuː.t̪ɐŋ ʔɪˌn̪a ˈmo]

Literally, “your mother is a whore”. See putang ina & mo (“your”).

Putang ina mo!

–¡Chino habías de ser para ser bueno– dijo al fin Aristóteles en el colmo de la desesperación.
– Y tú putang inamo–concluyó Sian-Co marchándose.
Y así terminó el suceso tan prósperamente comenzado la noche anterior.

1893, Wenceslao Retana, José Feced, La Política de España en Filipinas, Volume 3 (overall work in Spanish), la Viuda de M. Minuesa de los Rios, page 99:

"You had to be to be a good Chinese!", said Aristotle at last in the height of despair.
"And you you son of a bitch", concluded Sian-Co while marching out.
And so ended the event so prosperously begun the night before.

I would pounce out upon him, and before he would cry
“PUTANGINAMO”
(a reprehensible swear-word much used, alas! by those poor heathen),...

1916, Walter H. Young, A Merry Banker in the Far East (and South America) (overall work in English), John Lane, page 59:

–Hoy, putang-ina mo, e, kailangan pa bang magpaputok ka?

–Hey, you son of a bitch, eh, did you need to shoot?
–Stop it already, Comrade Emong, we don't have the capacity to fight yet. A little cooling off!

"The accused, here, an eleven-year-old boy, shot the offended party who caught him shooting at the latter's mango fruits. The accused further uttered the words " Putang ina mo, mabuti matikman mo." It was held that the first part of the remark clearly manifested the perverted character of the accused and the second part reflected his satisfaction.

1979, Philippine Law Journal, volume 54 (overall work in English), College of Law, University of the Philippines, page 109:

"The accused, here, an eleven-year-old boy, shot the offended party who caught him shooting at the latter's mango fruits. The accused further uttered the words " Fuck you, it's good you got a taste." It was held that the first part of the remark clearly manifested the perverted character of the accused and the second part reflected his satisfaction.

Putang'ina mo, Tang'inamo, Hinayupak kang putang'ina mo ka! Tang'inang load expired na. Bull shit! Ano bang gustong mangyari ng ex ko? Bakit hindi siya tumutupad sa pangako niya? Halik, 'yung halik na 'yun para kanino 'yun? Bakit niya ...

2014, Taga Imus, Sa Celfone: Tagalog Gay Story, Taga Imus M2M Books - TGIMS Publishing Services, →ISBN, page 23:

Fuck you, Fuck you, you animal son of a bitch! The fucking load is expired now. Bullshit! What is my ex expecting? Why is he not fulfilling his promise? That kiss, is that for whom? Why did he...
