This term was first used in 1844 to refer to the Russian resistance and victory over Napoleon's invasion, and was evoked again in 1912 during the centenary of the French defeat. In 1941, the newspaper Pravda used the term for the defence against the German invasion of the Soviet Union, in order to motivate citizens to unite and fight.

grossetto

/ɡɹoʊˈsɛtoʊ/

/ɡɹəʊˈsɛtəʊ/

Borrowed from Italian grossetto, diminutive of grosso.

A copper piece, called the grossetto, and resembling the grosso in character and design, but having on the reverse the legend TIBI LAVS & GLORIA, made its first appearance under the Doge Veniero (1383-1400) and at a later period we find the half-grossetto (1523-38).

Probably the best-known example of this is the grosso, with its varieties, the grossetto and the grossone; these names can of course be traced to the numi grossi, i. e., thick coins, or large denarii originally struck in Bohemia in the thirteenth century.

1917, “The Numismatist: An Illustrated Monthly Magazine for Those Interested in Coins, Medals, and Paper Money”, in (Please provide the book title or journal name), volume 30:

However, six years after his death a new double grosso was introduced; from this point on the term grossone would be used for the new large coin, and grossetto for the normal grosso.

2013, Benjamin Arbel, Intercultural Contacts in the Medieval Mediterranean:

(historical, numismatics) An Italian coin of the fourteenth century.

Frexit

Blend of France + exit, possibly as an adaptation of Brexit.

And while brexit is still on the agenda, after the European Parliament elections from May 22-25 it is quite legitimate to ask ourselves the question whether there is a danger of losing France - in other words is there a risk of a frexit?

2014 May 31, Adelina Marini, “Is It Time for a Frexit?”, in euinside:

The Front National won the French elections with calls for an immediate restoration of the franc and a referendum on Frexit.

June 2014, World Commerce Review, Vol. 8, Issue 2, p. 3

If Brexit happens can Frexit — France exiting the existing EU — be far behind?

2015, Denis MacShane, Brexit: How Britain will Leave Europe, page 9:

In France, opinion polls show that the far-right National Front, led by self-styled "Madame Frexit" Marine Le Pen, is now more popular than the center-right Republicans or ruling Socialists.

2015 November 9, Ian Bremmer, Time, volume 186, number 19, page 12:

It no longer advocates Frexit from the EU or leaving the euro currency.

2018 June 4, Maïa de La Baume, “Populist plan for 2019 election puts EU in crosshairs: The next European Parliament could well have more Euroskeptic voices. But can they work together?”, in Politico:

Her European policy is Frexit by stealth – unilaterally reducing payments to the EU budget and breaking EU laws she does not like.

2013, Paddy Duffy, Did That Actually Happen?: A Journey Through Unbelievable Moments in Irish Politics, Hachette UK, →ISBN:

Possibly the biggest Portillo moment north of the border, the Chief Secretary to the Treasury is also in danger of losing his seat according to the marginal polls.

2015 May 7, Sebastian Payne, “Election night: the ten ‘Portillo moments’ to watch out for”, in The Spectator:

It's the 2015 General Election's Portillo moment - but who is the Tory who's scalped shadow chancellor Ed Balls by just 422 votes?

af

(Roman mythology) Moneta, a Roman equivalent of the Greek Mnemosyne, goddess of memory and mother of the Muses.


Moneta

Cicero
Marcus Manlius Capitolinus
Moneta
Suda

Uncertain. Probably ultimately from Ancient Greek μονήρης (monḗrēs, “solitary, alone, unique”) although frequently conflated with the first etymology since antiquity. Cicero favored a derivation from monēre with reference to legends that a voice from Juno's temple demanded a sacrifice of a pregnant sow during an earthquake and that the sacred geese of the temple warned Marcus Manlius Capitolinus of approaching Gauls in 390 BC. The Byzantine Suda referenced stories that, when the Romans needed money for war with Tarentum and Epirus, Juno's priest had advised that if they conducted themselves with justice then the money would take care of itself. This is now regarded as unlikely, given that Moneta was worshipped at other locations in Italy earlier and only became conflated with Juno once introduced to Rome (cf. evocatio) in the 4th century BC. Other suggested derivations—from Latin mons from the temple's location or from the goddess of memory above because the temple housed Rome's lists of old consuls—have the same problem.

der

(Roman mythology) Moneta, an epithet of Juno in her role as advisor and patron of the Roman mint, kept at her temple.


Dave Spart

Coined by Private Eye, playing on the word Spartacist (“a member of the International Communist League”).

Now every Dave Spart up the commune knows that basically, to his mind, the only, like, real theatre, man, is made by the people, you know, in the street, man, in the street.

1981, Reyner Banham, Design by Choice, London: Academy Editions:

But of course there is no shortage of people with ingenious ideas about how public money should be spent, and Ken is quite right when he warns us about a whole new generation of Dave Sparts currently working up from the grass roots

We don't get many Dave Sparts these days chopping hands, invoking the working class and using the word "total" twice in every sentence.

Like McGuinness, Wark's Left is populated by a cast of grotesques; of Dave Sparts who sleep with copies of Trotsky's Literature and Revolution tucked under their pillows.

one-nation conservatism

Refers to the fact that all classes are part of the same nation.

All this links Johnson firmly with his predecessors – Margaret Thatcher, John Major, David Cameron and Theresa May. So does (with Thatcher as the exception that proves the rule) his eagerness – on full display in his remarks in Downing Street on Friday – to employ that emptiest of empty signifiers, “one-nation Conservatism”.

So he spoke, weeping, and retraced his steps to the threshold

Brexiter

/ˈbɹɛɡzɪtə(ɹ)/

2016 February 20, Timothy Garton Ash, “Here’s how to argue with a Brexiter – and win”, in The Guardian, title:

Trump and the Tory Brexiters are cut from the same cloth.

2016 March 2, Deborah Orr, “What do Trump and Brexiters have in common? A disregard for all but themselves”, in The Guardian:

The proposal, made ahead of Thursday's crucial vote on Britain's continued EU membership, is designed to deflect accusations that Brexiters - as supporters of Britain's exit from the EU are popularly known - have used crude anti-immigrant and racist slogans to pollute the political debate during the EU referendum campaign and may have even indirectly inspired last week's murder of Mrs Jo Cox, a local opposition MP and fervent migration defender.

remainer

The government’s “bullish” and “macho” approach to Brexit should not stop Conservative backbenchers from tabling amendments to the crucial repeal bill, a leading Tory remainer has said.

2017 September 4, “End ‘macho’ Brexit posturing, Anna Soubry urges May”, in The Guardian:

The reason this once-devout remainer doggedly sticks to these lines is obvious: even if opinion polling suggests that residual popular belief in Brexit is now ebbing away, the Labour party has to secure the support of people who voted leave in 2016, switched from Labour to the Tories in 2019, and would supposedly greet any talk of revisiting the basics of Brexit with anger and dismay.

3rd c. AD, Lucius Ampelius, Liber Memorialis IV

Sunt ergo bini in quattuor caeli partibus, ab oriente aequinoctiali subsolanus, ab oriente brumali vulturnus.

c. 79 CE, Pliny Maior, Naturalis Historiae II.119

Then each quarter of the sky is taken in half, so that [from the north-east, where the sun rises] by summer comes Subsolanus]], from [the south-east where the sun rises] by winter comes Vulturnus.

Regrexit

Blend of regret + Brexit, said to have been coined on 24 June 2016 by one Carl Gardner in a Twitter post (see quotations) following the United Kingdom European Union membership referendum on 23 June 2016.

Labour has one chance now. To emerge within weeks as Britain's centrist "Regrexit Unionist" party. If it did that, even I might forgive it.

2016 June 24, Carl Gardner (@carlgardner), Twitter, archived from the original on 2016-11-02:

There are leave voters who confessed to reporters that they never thought their side would actually win, that their vote had only ever been intended as a protest, presumed to be safe because surely everyone else would vote the other way. […] A Twitter user came up with a new coinage for this rapid form of buyer's remorse: Regrexit. […] When some of those leave voters see that Brexit has not brought back the good jobs of old, that housing is still in desperately short supply and that a migrant family still lives round the corner, the Regrexit sentiment will grow.

2016 June 24, Jonathan Freedland, “For the 48%, this was a day of despair: Soon we will become little Britain. The signs of Regrexit are cold comfort for those of us who voted to remain.”, in The Guardian, London, archived from the original on 2016-09-13, subtitle:

From reports, the UK is moving rapidly from Brexit to Regrexit.

2016 June 26, Abhidevananda <abhide...@sarkarverse.org>, “Re: Brexit”, in uk.philosophy.humanism (Usenet), message-ID <t9ybz.34812$LR2.4319@fx26.fr7>:

In the spirit of Brexit, these attitudes even have their own media-friendly nickname: Bregret or Regrexit.

2016 June 27, Adam Taylor, “Bregret? Regrexit? Don't bet on it.”, in The Washington Post, archived from the original on 2016-10-06:

There were many reasons for the Leave vote, and Regrexit is now gaining momentum.

2016 June 29, Anna Wallis, “Brexit lessons here”, in Wanganui Chronicle:

Within a few days, petitions to re-do the vote emerged with more than four million signatures, known as 'Regrexit.'

2017, Markus M.L. Crepaz, European Democracies, Routledge, →ISBN:

There's a chance, especially with the 'Regrexit' sentiment surfacing, that the U.K. will still be part of the EU in two years.

2018, Victor O. Okocha, Leadership and Development Crises in Africa: A New Approach to an Old Challenge, Dorrance Publishing, →ISBN, page 234:
