枕詞

枕詞 (canonical)
makura kotoba (romanization)

→ English: pillow word (calque)

→ English: makurakotoba

Compound of 枕 (makura, “pillow”) + 詞 (kotoba, “word”). The pillow meaning is in reference to the way that makura kotoba in poetry are used as introductions to something else.

compound

711–712, Kojiki, poem 2:
… 爾波都登理 迦祁波那久 … [Man'yōgana]
… 庭つ鳥 鶏は鳴く … [Modern spelling]

Over time, certain makura kotoba may become full metonyms to replace the term they originally only alluded to, such as the Old Japanese phrase 庭つ鳥 (niwa tsu tori) or "garden bird" replacing the older term 鶏 (kake) to mean "chicken", as in the modern Japanese term 鶏 (niwatori). An example of such a makura kotoba

...the garden bird, the chicken clucks...

(poetry) a pillow word, an epithet, specifically a poetic device where a certain introductory phrase is commonly used to allude to something else, traditionally used in 和歌 (waka, “traditional Japanese poetry”)

correption

en-noun

correption (countable and uncountable, plural correptions)

From Latin correptio (“seizure”), from corripere (“to seize”).


afflation

From Latin afflatus, past participle of afflare (“to blow or breathe on”), from ad + flare (“to blow”).

At 100 ° F. and in a perfectly damp atmosphere, there occurs an absolute stagnation of the air surrounding the living body: but as air of that temperature is never naturally saturated with moisture. afflation still affords relief by applying air capable of dissolving the animal perspiration, and thus occasioning an absorption of heat from the body.

1829, D. Butter, “On Public Health in India”, in Transactions of the Medical and Physical Society of Calcutta, page 140:

Stirred by the winds of some unseen afflation, he becomes restless .

1908, Charles Bruce Pitblado, Edwy Guthrie Pitblado, Nareen, page 104:

Toward the close of those warm, drowsy, Indian-summer afternoons of late September, when the sweet, refreshing air of welcomed evening breathes its cool afflation upon the heated forehead of dull, haggard toil and smoothes caressingly away the furrowed burden from the brow of care, age-worn by many a day;

1909, H. Y. O., “Posthumous Pages from the Memoirs of a Dead Misogamist”, in The Dietetic and Hygienic Gazette, volume 25, page 554:

But there was a new afflation— / An aura zephyring round, / That care infected not: [...]

1922, Thomas Hardy, “An Experience”, in Late Lyrics and Earlier with Many Other Verses, London: Macmillan and Co., […], →OCLC, stanza 2, page 111:

but on the other side, the frequent testimonies of the Spirit's revealing by way of prophetic afflation, who should be set appart for the offices of the church, are evidences that it was so here.

1845, Henry Hammond, A Paraphrase and Annotations upon all the books of The New Testament:

Ironically, afflation at once diminishes the role of the messenger, who may disclaim being anything more than a conduit, and elevates the status of her message, since it comes from the divine.

1998, Earle J. Coleman, Creativity and Spirituality: Bonds between Art and Religion, page 168:

And precisely at that moment, at the end of the seventh century, in the depths of conquered Armenia, an Armenian called Constantine from the village of Mananalis near Samosata (1) had an afflation .

2018, Alexander Maistrovoy, Gnosticism Through the Prism of the Third Millennium:

These Memoirs are introduced by a Preface written by the Author's brother, with considerable elegance and feeling, though by no means devoid of that afflation of style and display of sentiment, which are the great defects of modern Irish eloquence.·

1816, The Eclectic review. vol. 1-New [8th] - Volume 5, page 498:

A man may be buoyed up by the afflation of his wild desires to brave any imaginable peril; but he cannot calmly see one he loves braving the same peril; simply because he cannot feel within him that which prompts another.

1846, George Henry Lewes, The Spanish Drama, page 62:

The vigorous granges, those with a real animate and useful existence, are those dominated by a spirit flowing from the energetic fidelity and devotion of a few—often one or two—members who have caught afflation from a clear apprehension of the power and aims of the institution, and are so far ruled by its precepts that selfish considerations oppose no bar to their application and extension .

1900, The Connecticut Granges, page 119:

Enthusiasm; strength of feeling; emotionality.

Regarding the afflation of pharyngeal lymphoids, simple as all agree that this is in skilled hands, opinions differ widely as to the best technique.

1906, “Tonsils, True and False; Including their Bloodless Removal”, in The Pacific Dental Gazette:

For example, a pandemic of afflation in maize in a given country may lead to the imposition of an import ban by potential patrons.

2020, Youssef M. Hamada, Agribusiness as the Future of Agriculture, page 196:

Pulses and cereals Afflation and Fusarium (fumonisin) contamination of groundnuts, maize, and sorghum is very common, but it is not controlled and there are no regulations or control measures in place.

2024, Pooja Tripathi, Food Nutrition in Human Science, page 63:


dochmius

From Latin dochmius, from Ancient Greek δόχμιος (dókhmios, “oblique; dochmius”).

bor

Yet there is good reason to doubt the existence of any such; —good reason to think, that dochmiuses belong to the triple rhythm

1843, William O'Brien, The Ancient Rhythmical Art Recovered, page 6:

This chorus, which consists almost entirely of dochmii, is so corrupt as to present various problems of an almost insoluble character, although portions of it have yielded to the brilliant emendatory efforts of Hermann.

1910, R. J. Walker, Anti Mias: An Essay in Isometry, page 228:

Every dochmius is catalectic, representing an original phrase of nine primary times.

1912, John Williams White, The Verse of Greek Comedy, page 296:

(poetry) A metrical foot of five syllables used in Greek tragedy for highly anguished scenes. The metrical pattern is typically: short-long-long-short-long.

clockpunk

The term [steampunk] is also frequently applied to works set in original worlds drawing inspiration from nineteenth century culture and technology, and at times is even used to refer to comparable blends of alternate history and retro-futurism across a much wider historical span (blurring with categories like Renaissance-era "clockpunk" and interwar "dieselpunk").

2011, Nader Elhefnawy, After the New Wave: Science Fiction Since 1980, Createspace, →ISBN:

Then sometime in the early 90's^([sic]) came steampunk. Alright, that's a little goofy, but people understood what it meant. It was the "punk"-like hacker culture from cyberpunk using Victorian era, steam based technology. […] But authors couldn't stop there! No, they had to go back further and write about clockpunk: hackers in Da Vinci's time making things run on springs and gears and other clockwork.

2011, Ted Stoltz, Universal Serendipity, Lulu Press, →ISBN, pages 43–44:

Oddly enough, K. W. Jeter wrote a clockpunk novel in 1987 called Infernal Devices. The story takes place in London and involves human-fish hybrids and a brilliant clockwork maker whose father had been experimenting with building automata, clockwork humans.

2013, Lois H. Gresh, The Mortal Instruments Companion, St. Martin's Press, →ISBN, page 132:

A subgenre of speculative fiction, based on the technology and society of the Renaissance.


sandalpunk

Do you have something against sandalpunk or something? If you don't like that, try some Bacon. Roger Bacon, that is.

2006 March 15, Llewelyn Jones <llywelynjones@yahoo.co.uk>, “ASBs Invade”, in soc.history.what-if (Usenet), message-ID <4769418477491436>:

I've been planning out a sort of sandalpunk-leading-to-steampunk alternate history setting for a while, but I've not yet gotten to a satisfactory level of detail or plausibility to do anything but the most basic story-idea-outlining in it.

2006 May 26, Logan Kearsley <chrono.surfer@verizon.net>, “Telling time in antiquity”, in rec.arts.sf.composition (Usenet), message-ID <9d3eaa093f0d1c9d>:

The specificity of steampunk's Victorian setting, particular in light of the relative presence and notoriety of steampunk vis-à-vis similar subgenres set in other time periods ('clockpunk' or 'sailpunk' set in the Renaissance, such as Paul McAuley's Pasquale's Angel; 'sandalpunk,' set in a technologically innovative ancient world; 'dieselpunk,' 'stonepunk,' etc.) argues for the importance to the present of shifts in technological culture that took place during the Victorian era.

2011, Noam S. Cohen, Speculative Nostalgias: Metafiction, Science Fiction and the Putative Death of the Novel, →ISBN:

A subgenre of speculative fiction, based on the technology and society of the Iron Age, especially the Roman Empire.


sailpunk

Don't forget about chain - great for shredding your target's rigging and not half bad as an antipersonnel round too. (Well, if you're in a "SailPunk" setting it's useful, anyway... Arrr, matey; scupper me wi' a handspike if it ain't so.)

1996 April 27, Carl Perkins <carl@gergo.tamu.edu>, “Re: Barriers”, in rec.games.frp.cyber (Usenet), message-ID <f2ab6ed35a112b8d>:

I notice also that on paper are available nifty and *original* places for live sailpunk RPG'ing but I fear that RN and USN will really frown at the idea of a bunch of live role-players fooling aboard HMS Victory and USS Constitution respectively...

atompunk

In fact, there was a fair amount of stuff around in the 60s and 70s that can only be explained as cross-dimensional leakage from an Atompunk universe.

2001 October 31, Simon Bradshaw, “Re: Steampunk Recommendations?”, in rec.arts.sf.written (Usenet), message-ID <memo.20011031191447.43761C@sjbradshaw.compulink.co.uk>:

Perfect "atompunk" feel – reactors with nervous engineers and analog controls.

2002 June 10, Mike Simone, “Re: Land Battleships”, in rec.arts.sf.science, rec.games.design (Usenet), message-ID <152bbdf6.0206101038.72e312be@posting.google.com>:

For the Legion, we're looking at 20th century futures rather than 19th. Analogies with steampunk might be "dieselpunk", "atompunk", or "rocketpunk" – but any Legion of Super-Heroes worthy of the name seems to be as far from the "punk" aspect as it's possible to get.

2004 March 6, Michael S. Schiffer, “Re: Earth-2 Legion Synopsis”, in rec.arts.comics.dc.lsh (Usenet), message-ID <Xns94A49BD7E514mss2mediaonenet@130.133.1.4>:

According to a mailing list from the Netherlands, Atompunk is devoted to the cultural period (mostly of the United States) of between 1945 to 1965. While the moniker hasn't become a part of our country's vernacular yet (though I'm sure some of you already started using it ages ago), it sounds just annoyingly catchy enough to warrant a New York Times trend piece in about eight years.

2012 April 8, Elaine Chow, “Space Age Fetishism Getting Silly New Moniker: Atompunk”, in Gizmodo, archived from the original on 2016-08-28:

Atompunk covers the pre-digital period of 1945–1965, including mid-century Modernism, the Atomic Age and Space Age. Throw Roger Thornhill's suits in this basket, and everything ever worn on Mad Men. This takes us right up to the mid '60s, when the fictional worlds of yesterday abut the real worlds you grew up in.

2012, William J. Thompson, “Time Travel”, in Dress Like a Grownup!: A Complete Tutorial for the Average Guy, 2nd edition, volume 1, [Morrisville, N.C.]: Lulu.com, →ISBN, part 2 (Advanced Theory), page 55:

You keep imagining someone 20 years from now reading The Peripheral the way that we read Neuromancer today, perplexed at the now-unfathomable ubiquity of cassettes and modems. We laugh at the past or mine it for influence – think of steampunk, atompunk, dieselpunk, and the million other microgenres based on the incongruity of old societies and future tech – but someday, the future is going to do the same to us.

2014 October 27, Adi Robertson, “William Gibson’s ‘The Peripheral’: Looking Back at the Future: A Smart, Nuanced Twist on Time Travel”, in The Verge, archived from the original on 2017-05-05:

Additionally, while [Sebastian] Faulks aspires to write as [Ian] Fleming, he takes care to increase the serving of action, in fact including some interesting bits of atompunk—a nuclear-powered ekranoplan, Vulcan bombers.

2015, Nader Elhefnawy, The Forgotten James Bond, [s.l.]: [s.n.]:

(science fiction) A subgenre of speculative fiction, based on the society and technology of the Atomic Age (c. 1945–1969).

Christian Lander (2008) Stuff White People Like, →ISBN, page 171: “But if you must declare a shark-jumping moment, the best bet is to say that the show jumped between the two “Who Shot Mr. Burns?” episodes.”

Obviously, the style of romantic pseudogothic architecture was not invented by Isabel - the building at Puławy was preceded by several similar creations abroad and in Poland.

1980, Marek Rostworowski, The National Museum in Cracow, the Czartoryski Collection:

Even a regular reader of the most dreadful pseudogothic periodicals must have felt a frisson of horror.

1997, Jan Bondeson, A Cabinet of Medical Curiosities, page 97:

The pseudogothic trappings that disfigure the first two cantos of Childe Harold are absent in Childe Harold III and IV, which we may discuss here as a unit even though the last canto was completed two years later in Italy.

2004, Harold Bloom, English Romantic Poetry, page 295:

Many mistake my approach as hostile to the sacrosanct memory of J. R. R. Tolkien, undoubtedly one of the greatest worldbuilders of the 20th century and indirectly the father of both a literary and a gaming genre.

Neogothic

en-adj

more Neogothic (comparative)

The travelling engineer Frencesco Senweignoter designed the church at Falzes (1851) and also the front of the mausoleaum for Archduke Reiner in the principal church in Bolzano. The latter is a pleasing and correct example of the Neogothic style.

1979, Sandro Gattei, Sandro Pirovano, Robert Mainardi, Trentino Alto Adige, page 464:

The earlier periods, the original and ideas-phases of German Neogothic, have been well written up in English; now Lewis's work fills an important gap in English-language works on the later period; indeed, so far, there is no comparable work in German either.

1992, Newsletter - Issues 47-65, page 90:

The Neogothic Revival style of the early 1900s sought to tame the excesses of the flamboyant High Victorian Gothic by turning to English Gothic architecture for inspiration.

1993, East Central Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission, City of Berlin intensive architectural/historical survey: final report:

His interest in architecture was always strongly linked to his sense of responsibility for the care and preservation of the built environment. In 1973 he published an article on Early Neogothic in Finland.

1995, Icon to Cartoon: A Tribute to Sixten Ringbom, page 22:

Toward the end of the nineteenth century, he made a series of designs in the Neogothic idiom of Martorell.

Poochie-fication

From Poochie, a character added to boost the ratings of the fictional Itchy and Scratchy Show in The Simpsons episode "The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show", + -fication.

In case you're wondering, that extra, 3rd dimension they're going to be adding to the bears is going to be made entirely out of neon, sunglasses, and highlights for the fur of Mama and Sister. Basically, it's Poochie-fication of the Berenstain Bears.

2009 November 3, Amelie Gillette, “Berenstain Bears Movie To Change The Way You Think About Anthropomorphic Bears”, in The Onion AV Club:

In the 90s, this Poochie-fication of comics — wherein many titles grew consistently and thoroughly EXTREEEEME — reached its zenith.

2010 September 29, Glen Weldon, “In Praise of M.O.D.O.K: Why Gleefully Goofy Beats Broodingly Brutal”, in National Public Radio:

It’s rare when the Poochie-fication of a character actually works, but it totally did with Kyle Rayner. Rather than the earnest, Silver Age Hal Jordan, backed up by thousands of Corps members, and knowing what his job and destiny was, Rayner was given a ring by a dying Guardian, left alone as the last Green Lantern.

2011 June 16, Alex Zalban, “The 10 Best Green Lanterns Of All Time”, in MTV, archived from the original on 2011-12-26:

(entertainment, derogatory, uncommon) The process of adding a new character to a work of fiction, or altering characters already present, in a bid to make the work cooler or more extreme.


Potterhead

Potter + -head, possibly by analogy with pothead.

Yesterday's news that Universal Studios was planning to open "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter" in 2009 will have prodded the shriek-buttons of millions of young Potterheads, whose relentless campaign for a "really fun holiday this time, Daaad" will have ratcheted forward a few more irreversible notches.

2007 June 1, Pat Kane, “Are They Potty?”, in The Guardian:

Her infectious enthusiasm has brought many knitters (like Alison Hansel!) into the Potterhead fold and has introduced Potterheads into the world of knitting.

2007, Alison Hansel, Charmed Knits: Projects for Fans of Harry Potter, page 164:

"Happiness x10000," wrote one fan on learning of Rowling's new project. "IT'S LIKE POTTERHEAD CHRISTMAS!" said another.

2012 April 16, Alison Flood, “Harry Potter encyclopedia in progress, says JK Rowling”, in The Guardian:

(informal, fandom slang) One who loves the Harry Potter series of books, the Potterverse, and/or the Wizarding World Rowling-created franchise, especially to a fanatical degree.

chaotics

As I see it, chaotics represents more of a general outlook, a set of ideas describing the world, including literary texts, in ways used in a number of different disciplines.

1999, Hans C. Werner, Literary texts as nonlinear patterns:

The very process of discovering chaotics and overturning established views of science and systems chimes with the emphasis in literature of the day on uncertainty and indeterminacy, free play of the signifier, and rewritings of various sorts.

If the jury, who begin their final deliberations tomorrow, find the black All-American hero guilty of murdering his white wife, Nicole Brown, and her friend, Ronald Goldman, they will have concluded that he succumbed to the oldest tragic flaw in the book, the green-eyed monster of jealousy.
