New Englandress (plural New Englandresses)

Of course, with romance for a motif, he hurries them away from the republic to take refuge under the shadows and among the traces of a foreign presence on the continent—not missing, however, a shot at folly as it flies by train or steamer, nor a double stroke of satire both for the great city and the wide West, and for the misliking glance his bright little New Englandress gives them, nor an epigram or two—we hope they may draw blood—on the clerks and ticket-takers we bow down to.

She [Kathleen Pierson] is now a successful romance novelist using Sioux themes and settings, and seems to be attempting to lead the way toward harmony and assimilation between the races, with interracial love her major theme. This is not a new idea for modern white New Englandresses.

The editor of perhaps the most widely read magazine issuing from the metropolis was recently asked, “Is your magazine read much in New York city itself?” / “Oh, yes,” he answered, “but we are more popular in the United States.” The answer was indicative. New York is not American. It is merely Newyorkian. And the New Yorker is beginning to know it and to regret it.

In bed, he dreamt of Caty, of her sweet and solid body nourished on all the Newyorkian essences, her aromatic Boricuan body of markedly horizontal tendencies.[…]In the livingroom decorated with posters of erotic content—Babylonian Newyorkian obsession—the guests move from one spot to another: pale youths with huge afros, girls in slacks, an occasional skirt.[…]Oh, a bien chévere couple, he will be ashamed of his father I will raise him by myself Newyorican son, hum, his grain of sand in the Newyorkian population hum, feeling the nostalgic notes of a guitar the rasping of a güiro on the floor below, Boricuan Christmas in the urban setting oh unbearable nostalgia, loneliness profoundly exhausted not only from the effects of the hard work under the Manolo-ian vigilance, an exhaustion from deep within.

The very month that this tribute of the leading English art review appeared, the readers of a New York journal were told that it would be pleasant to feel sure that American art as a whole was beginning to take on some sort of national complexion: “[…] The subjects they choose are rarely American; they take little pains to reproduce American landscapes or types of character; they pay little attention to American historical episodes. They are Parisian, rather than New-Yorkian.”

What pity it is that the New Yorkian of that honourable body should make them so blind to real interest as not to prefer the first city on the finest river in the most respectable state in America, to a parcel of buildings, confusedly situated on a pitiful island which has neither ice in winter to protect it, nor force in summer sufficient to prevent Congress and all their papers being carried off by pirates.

It was impertinently said by (leaden) penciller Willis, of Captain [Frederick] Marryat’s nautical novels, that they could scarcely be entitled to rank as works of literature, “being read chiefly about Wapping.” We need not dwell on the recent results of that choice bit of criticism, the readers of the Times newspaper having been treated to a belligerent correspondence thereanent; from which all rational folks have concluded, that, though the New Yorkian had plenty of disposable lead in his pencil, paper pellets sufficed for his pistol.

One great advantage Captain [Lauchlan Bellingham] Mackinnon possessed among the New Yorkians was his determination to be pleased—astonished—captivated—awe-struck if necessary at the beauty of the women, strength of the men, intuitive genius, repidity of acquirement of all sorts of knowledge, science and—not art—but the talent of making money—and his readiness to acknowledge every where, the most wonderful superiority of our cousin Jonathan Yankee over us dull heavy people at home.

In a letter I got the other day from the other side of the Atlantic, I was assured that Lord [Francis Egerton, 1st Earl of] Ellesmere pronounced the New York Crystal Palace a much more beautiful and better-built edifice than ours of Hyde Park glorious memory.

That is rather sublime for a Western man, and largely untrue. A Southerner will meet him with a flat-footed denial, that we are not a nation, in the usual meaning of the word; that we are a mere union of sovereign states—large and small, each state equal, and known by some designation as New Yorkians, Virginians, Tennesseans, South Carolinians, Georgians, &c.; that nobody ever read of United Statesians, and as for Americans, the designation is a grand geographical lie, for Canadians, Kamschatkians, and Mexicans are equally Americans with the dwellers in the 34 respective states.

We may thus associate into an organism some eight hundred or one thousand influential New Yorkians who desire to sustain government against Southern rebellion and Northern sectionalism, and strengthen Northern loyalty to the nation, and stimulate property-holders and educated men to assert their right to a voice in the conduct of public affairs, national, state, and municipal, and do a little something toward suppressing the filthy horde of professed politicians that is now living on us and draining our national life by parasitical suction.

But—(as we learn from our European correspondent)—but—he authoress of the hooped circle, the Empress Eugenie, has appeared in public without hoops. A revolution is in prospect, to which ’93 is pale! Hoops avaunt!—Down on your knees, femenine provincialdom, and hear the resistless ukase of the Empress Eugenie! New-Yorkeresses, obey! Off with your hoops! So much for the swelling shams

Türkman

en-noun

Türkman (countable and uncountable, plural Türkmans or Türkmen)

The wild Kürd and Türkman, wandering predatory shepherds, pitch their tents there;

1842, Eli Smith, “Moral and Religious Condition of Western Asia”, in Missionary Sermons and Addresses, New York, N.Y.: Saxton & Miles, […], page 27

The tekfur of Trebizond had such a bride, but that means descending from the freedom of the open pastures of the Türkmans through the dark valleys of the Pontos with its agach denizi (sea of trees), where armed men lurked, to the alien and enclosed world of the coastal Greeks: a world fraught with danger.

1983, Anthony Bryer, “Greeks and Turks”, in Tom Winnifrith, Penelope Murray, editors, Greece Old and New, The Macmillan Pres Ltd, →DOI, page 103

The most popular poet is, perhaps, Makhdūm-ḳuli (1733–ca. 1782), an educated Türkman, who cultivated the forms of folk poetry in secular love lyrics, and also wrote didactic works and religious songs.[…]Local languages were now elevated to independent literary status. The largest among these were Uzbek, Kazak, Türkman and Kirghiz.

1976, Eleazar Birnbaum, “Turkish literature through the ages”, in R. M. Savory, editor, Introduction to Islamic Civilisation, Cambridge University Press, page 81, column 2

Altan Gokalp has suggested that the terms Türkman and Yörük as used in these documents were not ethnic-linguistic labels but referred to different statuses for purposes of taxation; he believes that neither Yörük nor Türkman were necessarily turcophone (personal communication; cf. Gokalp 1989, 530–532).

Türkman

Part of the Seljuk and Türkman success in breaking local economies and sense of Orthodox patrida in Anatolia comes from the way in which they extinguished these local shrines and their lands, for once a pilgrim town has been wrecked it is very difficult to revive.

1983, Anthony Bryer, “Greeks and Turks”, in Tom Winnifrith, Penelope Murray, editors, Greece Old and New, The Macmillan Pres Ltd, →DOI, page 101

The Salor tribe, who held the city, had not been in the habit of making marauding incursions into Persia for the purpose of plunder and capturing slaves; but they were charged by Abbāss Mirza with supplying arms to other Türkman tribes, and of receiving Persian prisoners in return, whom they either retained as slaves or sold in Khīva and Bokhāra.

1995, Charles Ellison Bates, John Moubray Trotter, Central Asia: A Contribution Towards the Better Knowledge of the Topography, Ethnology, Resources, & History of Persia, page 502

Amir Khan was the leading amir of the Türkman tribe, which had come to regard Azerbaijan as its fief. The other Türkman amirs were incensed not only by his imprisonment, but also by his replacement with an Ustajlu.

Siculo-Norman

But the finest example of the blending of the Saracenic and the Romanesque, with the rich ornamentation in mosaic carried out so effectively by the Siculo-Normans, is S. Maria dell'Ammiraglio,[…].

1869, Charles Isidore Hemans, A History of Mediaeval Christianity and Sacred Art in Italy: A.D. 900-1350, page 316

It is an attractive hypothesis, which we accept, that these Muslim influences played on the art of Amalfi during the great age of the Republic and not merely (as some think) after the city was subdued by the Siculo-Normans.

1971, Kenneth John Conant, Henry M. Willard, “Early Examples of the Pointed Arch and Vault in Romanesque Architecture”, in Viator: Medieval and Renaissance Studies, Volume 2, University of California Press, page 205

Thanks to the tolerant policy of both Rogers of Altavilla and both Williams, their successors, the many Muslims left on the Island could draw up their deeds in Arabic, the Greek-Byzantines in Greek, and the Siculo-Normans in Latin.

2017, Paolo Martino, “Playing with identities in the Multilingual Place-names of Medieval Sicily”, in Piera Molinelli, editor, Language and Identity in Multilingual Mediterranean Settings, Walter de Gruyter, page 224

Québécker

Gouanvic’s SF: Dix années de science-fiction québécoise (Montréal, 1988; “Autres mers, autres mondes” series) is a competent anthology of ten high-point strories. In the same year Gouanvic also published in the same series Dérives 5 (Montréal, 1988), another francophone anthology; of the five stories, which all seem to focus on the perversion of social power, those by two of the four Québéckers represented, Jean Pettigrew and Esther Rochon, are particularly fine.

1992, David Ketterer, “International Arrival of Canadian Science Fiction”, in Canadian Science Fiction and Fantasy, Bloomington, Ind., Indianapolis, Ind.: Indiana University Press, page 140

I ended up in Québec. And I did think I could help. I did think English Québéckers were getting a bum deal.

2006, Barry Callaghan, Raise You Five: Essays & Encounters 1964-2004, Toronto, Ont.: McArthur & Company, page 138

Or as Ouali, 20 years old, who arrived in Canada from Algeria only 11 months before we began the workshops in Saint-Michel, describes: “Arabs, Haitians, Québéckers, and South Americans play together”.

2018, Willem Salet, editor, The Routledge Handbook of Institutions and Planning in Action, Routledge


Québecer

It should be noted however that their participation is less than that of the other groups: although they represent 80.7% of the total population, French-speaking Québecers form only 77.7% of the labor force.

1972, The Language of Work; the Position of French in Work and Consumer Activities of Québecers (Report of the Commission of Inquiry on the Position of the French Language and on Language Rights in Québec), page 14

Québecers have long had a reputation for gregariousness (Vallée, 1973). Foreign sociologists who have had the opportunity to systematically observe the social life of Québecers have been impressed by the density of their social relations.

1992, Simon Langlois, Jean-Paul Baillargeon, Gary Caldwell, Guy Fréchet, Madeleine Gauthier, Jean-Pierre Simard, “Sociability Networks”, in Recent Social Trends in Quebec, 1960-1990 (Comparative Charting of Social Change), Campus Verlag, McGill-Queen’s University Press, translation of La Société québécoise en tendances, page 89

The 37 percent of Québecers who voted for the federal Liberal party in the 1993 federal elections surely have no doubt about their own identity as both Québecers and Canadians;

1998, Raymond M. Hébert, “Identity, Cultural Production and the Vitality of Francophone Communities Outside Québec”, in Leen d’Haenens, editor, Images of Canadianness: Visions on Canada’s Politics, Culture, Economics (International Canadian Studies Series), University of Ottawa Press, page 44


Québecker

Irreconcilable ethnocultural claims are perhaps posed most acutely by the confrontation in claims of francophone Québeckers and First Nations people within the province of Québec.

1995, Daiva Stasiulis, Radha Jhappan, “The Fractious Politics of a Settler Society: Canada”, in Daiva Stasiulis, Nira Yuval-Davis, editors, Unsettling Settler Societies: Articulations of Gender, Race, Ethnicity and Class (Sage Series on Race and Ethnic Relations; volume 11), SAGE Publications, page 120

Blais and Nadeau report that even as francophone Québeckers define themselves first as Québeckers, they feel some attachment to Canada.

1996, Ines C. Molinaro, “Democracy and the Reconstitution of Canada”, in Alan Ware, editor, Democracy and North America, London, Portland, Or.: Frank Cass, page 103

It is no disrespect to non-Québeckers to deny them authority in a decision as to whether Québec forms an independent state. But it would be an injustice to Québeckers to give non-Québeckers authority in a decision as to Québec independence or to deny authority to Québeckers.

1997, David Copp, “Democracy and Communal Self-Determination”, in Robert McKim, Jeff McMahan, editors, The Morality of Nationalism, New York, N.Y., Oxford: Oxford University Press, page 296


Québécer

Marc Renaud argues that the social changes that occurred during the “quiet revolution,” combined with the lack of managerial employment opportunities for Québécers in the Anglo-controlled private sector, led a “new middle class” to seek “social hegemony” in the provincial government.

1984, Victor G. Rodwin, The Health Planning Predicament: France, Québec, England, and the United States, University of California Press, pages 143–144

When Québécers are not at the cinema watching their films, they are most likely at home watching Québec’s most popular television series, Lance et Compte (He Shoots, He Scores), which follows the escapades of a professional hockey team.

1991, International Film Guide, 1990, page 106, column 2

The Household Workers Association would like to remind Québécers that most domestic workers are excluded from coverage by the Minimum Wage Law.

Kapenaar

Fowls serenaded, and dogs passed the time lazily, even in the Gentlemen’s Walk. The bustle and spirit of absorbing competition which so pervade modern life had not yet infected the Kapenaars.

1926, P[ercy] W[ard] Laidler, A Tavern of the Ocean: Being a Social and Historical Sketch of Cape Town from Its Earliest Days, Cape Town: Maskew Miller, Limited, page 173

The sun shone upon rectangular streets lined with reed-thatched houses, many of them the stately, classical houses of the Seventeenth Century, their many-paned windows set with regularity on either side of a tall, dignified door, pilasters lifting themselves from street to roof level, and each house with a stone stoep upon which the Kapenaars sat in the cool of summer evenings.

1948, H[enry] V[ollam] Morton, “In which I see the original diary of van Riebeeck, […]”, in In Search of South Africa, London: Methuen & Co. Ltd., page 58

The early Dutch settlers and the English who followed them were living in Europe’s remotest outpost, not in Africa. Mountain ranges, and the Kalahari and Karroo deserts to the north and east, were between them and their rivals for possession of the country, the Bantu-speaking tribes. Life was peaceful; the Kapenaars’ eyes were turned to Europe (some say they still are), while out east on the frontier history was made.

Centaurian

The Centaurians are remarkable people, but move slowly.

1911, [L. D.] Biagi, The Centaurians: A Novel, New York, N.Y.: Broadway Publishing Co., […]

Jack proposed to record a Centaurian’s vocabulary with English equivalents, and the dictawriter, hearing the queer hoots the strange creature uttered, would pick out a card which would then cause a speaker to enunciate its English synonym.

1935 March, Murray Leinster, “Proxima Centauri”, in Astounding Stories, volume XV, number 1, Street & Smith, page 25

Suppose that in a few years we are visited by a race of benevolent and rational beings from Alpha Centauri that have free will and an advanced culture. […] Suppose further that after they figure out our languages we realize the Centaurians are moral beings who act on reflectively endorsed and rationally appraised principle. We can now ask, “What is of moral value for the Centaurians?”

Reisch, editor, Popular Culture and Philosophy, volume 63), Chicago, Ill., LaSalle, Ill.: Open Court Publishing Company, section “Identity Crises”, page 65

Rather than come here in person, it would be much more sensible for Proxima Centaurians, if they exist, to send an unmanned satellite, the way we have in our exploration of the other planets of the solar system.

From Mobius, the fictional planet such characters would inhabit in some incarnations of their universe.

Now, their accents do in fact fit them well, and do represent (as someone said formerly) the fact that they're a group of Mobians from different cultural worlds..

1998 August 25, RazJMastrs, alt.fan.sonic-hedgehog (Usenet)

"Sonic the Hedgehog: Triple Trouble" (1995) has manifestations in both a comic book trilogy and as a video game. We'll simply make note of the saga's floating islands. “Panic in the Sky” starts off with a group of happy Mobians playing volleyball until interrupted by a shadow.

2015, Richard J. Heggen, Floating Islands: an Activity Book, published 2021, page 172

Both [the Pokemon and Sonic franchises] are home to a wide variety of creatures capable of feats of great strength and speed and elemental manipulation. The only difference is that those from the Sonic universe, also known as Mobians, can speak.

Bishkeker

Issyk-Kul's health resorts now seem a dying breed, although they still fill up with Bishkekers and local tourists in the hot months. Of at least 115 shoreline sanatoria before 1991, only a handful (mostly around Cholpon-Ata) remain open; best known is the immense Issyk-Kul Sanatorium near Cholpon-Ata.

1996 June, John King, John Noble, Andrew Humphreys, “Kyrgyzstan: Laky Issyk-Kul & the Central Tian Shan”, in Central Asia: A Lonely Planet Travel Survival Kit (Lonely Planet Travel Survival Kit), Hawthorn, Victoria: Lonely Planet Publications, page 377

For many long-term Bishkekers, the claim of the ‘incomers’ (priezhie) to the city is a contested one. […] Many Bishkekers were angry that, for the second time in recent memory, state buildings had been ransacked or set on fire […] and that they would have to foot the bill.

2010 May 13, Madeleine Reeves, “The Latest Revolution”, in London Review of Books, volume 32, number 9

As the Scythians mounted up, Kate spotted Patime Akhun in the crowd with a group of Women in Black who had been some of the first Bishkekers to join the protests. / “Patime,” Kate shouted, catching her attention. “Get in the truck.”

2017, Matthew Palmer, Enemy of the Good, New York, NY: G. P. Putnam's Sons, page 375

Kumis is best sampled fresh in a yurt. Even modern Bishkekers come to kumis-drinking retreats in Song Köl Lake or Suusamyr Valley. Coincidently, the name of the Kyrgyz capital city probably derives from the word bishkek — the wooden barrel in which kumis is made.

2020 January 19, Karolina Wiercigroch, “Photo gallery: dining with nomads in Kyrgyzstan”, in National Geographic

A native or inhabitant of Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.

In this article, I want to move beyond dissecting the nostalgic discourses of loss and deprivation among established Bishkekians (Bishkekchany) or simply juxtaposing these with the opposite claims of rural newcomers about their well-deserved belonging to this city.

planetsider

Todd knew billions of planetsiders were watching, most of Earth. What would they make of this? They had to take the threat seriously. Pat had to make them understand—as he hadn't made them imderstand the true significance of the alien messenger.

1981, Juanita Coulson, Tomorrow's Heritage, New York, N.Y.: Del Rey Books, page 349

Her chest was hurting already — no star-traveller had the stamina to outrun a planetsider—and she knew she could not keep up her pace for much longer.

1985, Melissa Scott, Five-Twelfths of Heaven, New York, N.Y.: Baen Books, page 307

The passers-by were mostly planetsiders, some so recent you could see they had trouble handling low-G movement.

1989, Larry Niven, Man-Kzin Wars II, New York, N.Y.: Baen Books, page 216

Near the main airlock she foimd Tregare arguing loudly with persons she had never seen—groundsiders here, she thought.

1976, F[rancis] M[arion] Busby, Rissa Kerguelen, Berkley Publishing Corporation, page 67

Coming back groundside, you always felt the dissociation. They shouldn't have brought him all the way back here; they should have left him out at a Jupiter station, or somewhere his own kind were. These groundsiders were the real aliens. He couldn't make any connections with contemporary Earth—this wasn't the America he remembered.

1988, Janet Morris, Chris Morris, Outpassage, New York, N.Y.: Pageant Books, page 7

Trinli paused a second, holding his place with one hand while his whole body quivered with the need for crampons and ropes, and pitons driven solid into the walls around him. Lord. It had been a long time since his groundsider orientation had come back this strongly. He moved forward. Forward. Not up.

1999, Vernor Vinge, A Deepness in the Sky, New York, N.Y.: Tor Books, page 109

The server was cute, and I wondered how she got here, because her physique was groundsider, even more than mine. She had a wedge do with blond highlights and was cheerful without being icky.

(science fiction) Someone who lives on the ground (as opposed to space).


landsider

What else but the quest for knowledge would tempt a sane person away from a comfortable home? What else would persuade a landsider to take to the ocean, except the chance of getting to meet more strangers in a shorter time?

1983, John Brunner, The Crucible of Time, New York, N.Y.: Del Rey Books, page 103

He wanted to stop at Petra's bunk and tell her about his home, about what his birthdays were usually like, just tell her it was his birthday so she'd say something about it being a happy one. But nobody told birthdays. It was childish. It was what landsiders did.

1985, Orson Scott Card, Ender's Game, London: Century Publishing, page 101

We'll be going out with the tide, with an extra five knot of current running where the river is usually slowest. I just thought you might be in a hurry to move at this end, what with the way your friends are keeping out of sight down with the codfish smell. The way I hear tell, you landsider don't favor fish odor too much.

1987, Glen Cook, Sweet Silver Blues, New York, N.Y.: Roc Books, page 82

Not a man I'd trust alone with her, you understand. Not a man I trust entirely on anything—too involved with the landsiders, the traders, the political people.

1988, Thomas T[hurston] Thomas, An Honorable Defense, New York, N.Y.: Baen Books, page 108

It is easy for the landsider to forget that seafarers came in many disguises. We tend to think of officers and ratings — deck sailors. We might, if pricked, think about the engine room crew — who with the onset of oil, then diesel, just kept on shrinking per ship.

1993, Tim Madge, Long Voyage Home: True Stories From Britain's Twilight Maritime Years, London […]: Simon & Schuster, page 146

Guinea-Bissauan

Copious amounts of palm oil, tomatoes, chili, fish, and goat’s meat are considered traditional staples in Guinea-Bissauan cooking.

2009, Jamie Stokes, editor, Encyclopedia of the Peoples of Africa and the Middle East, Facts On File, Inc., Infobase Publishing, page 270

These events and the silences and taboos surrounding them helped create the conditions for the longevity of the ‘linha de Cabral’ or ‘Cabral’s programme’ as a key reference of the erstwhile liberation movement and Guinea-Bissauan politics in general until the late 1990s.

2012, Philip J. Havik, “Virtual Nations and Failed States: Making Sense of the Labyrinth”, in Eric Morier-Genoud, editor, Sure Road? Nationalisms in Angola, Guinea-Bissau and Mozambique, Leiden, S.H., Boston, Mass.: Brill, page 52

Cabral and Pereira looked to unify both nations until Cabral’s prime minister, the former commander of the Guinea-Bissauan armed forces, João Bernardo Vieira, led a military coup against Cabral in 1980 on the grounds that Cabral’s Cape Verdean origins (like his brother, Amílcar, he was born in Bissau to Cape Verdean mixed-race parents) compromised his dedication to the Guinea-Bissauan people.

Newfoundland and Labradorian

Newfoundland and Labradorian (plural Newfoundland and Labradorians)

Newfoundland and Labradorians stand to gain little from their increased taxes and higher drug costs in the light of the fact that the vast majority of research facilities are located in Québec and Ontario.

1987 May 28, Proceedings of the Special Committee of the Senate on the Subject-matter of Bill C-22, page 8 : 46

But not all Newfoundland and Labradorians are in favour of a large call.

1999 March 29, Nicola Luksic, “Canadian seal slaughter unsustainable, warn scientists”, in The Varsity, volume 119, number 46, page 8, column 3

We think of Newfoundland and Labradorians as people that are outdoors and enjoying the outdoors, and yet, when we look at our physical activity rates, we see that is no longer the case.

2001, Délibérations du Comité Sénatorial Permanent des Affaires Sociales, des Sciences et de la Technologie, numbers 40–43, pages 41-15

Newfoundland and Labradorians by and large do not rate political activity highly.

2009, Lawrence Felt, “A Tale of Two Towns: Municipal Agency and Socio-economic Development in Akureyri, Iceland, and Corner Brook, Newfoundland”, in Godfrey Baldacchino, Rob Greenwood, Lawrence Felt, editors, Remote Control: Governance Lessons for and from Small, Insular, and Remote Regions, Institute of Social and Economic Research, part II (Reviewing Municipal Government in Small, Insular, and Remote Regions), page 163

Workers in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland and Labrador also experienced increases in real hourly wages of about 3 percent, but their average hourly wages of $17.35 and $17.46 respectively remained below the national average. Having said that, Newfoundland and Labradorians had the smallest rise in the cost of living (1.5 percent), resulting in an increase in their purchasing power (Statistics Canada 2009a)—a value undoubtedly reflected in their dropping child poverty rates.

2010, Patrizia Albanese, Child Poverty in Canada (Issues in Canada), Oxford University Press, page 69

His character and courage over a long and interesting life have made Newfoundland and Labradorians proud to claim him as a native son.

2012, Helen Forsey, quoting Jack Harris, Eugene Forsey: Canada’s Maverick Sage, Toronto, Ont.: Dundurn

That’s me, feasting on cliché, cultivating ennui and a thirst so fine I make a beeline for the next boat’s lounge and drink my way to Ilfracombe and back with Dylan Thomas, to and fro to Staten Island drink for drink with Lowell on a bender – or, better – head for Port-aux-Basques or Blanc-Sablon with manic homebound Newfoundland-and-Labradorians, jigs and reels unscrolling like a casually opened vein.

2012, Don McKay, Paradoxides, McClelland & Stewart, page 64

“He wasn’t afraid to go out and explore the world and bring it back to [Newfoundland and Labrador],” said Mr. Steele, adding that Mr. Stirling was also the first to introduce 24-hour television in North America. “He was a guy that instilled confidence in Newfoundland and Labradorians.”

2013 December 30, “Geoff Stirling brought the world to Newfoundland and Labrador”, in The Globe and Mail, archived from the original on 2017-01-02

I lived in the tightly knit province of Newfoundland and Labrador 35 years but was still identified as a “come-from-away,” clearly recognized as being not from the province, most often because of my last name. Often, it was more curiosity than malice. For Newfoundland and Labradorians, the question “Who are you from?” is about establishing who your parents are and fitting you into your spot in the relatively small provincial firmament.

Vancouver Islander

Vancouver Islander (plural Vancouver Islanders)

There are, however, a few of their traditions, which appear to have been handed down to them from the same source as the story of Mango Capac amongst the Peruvians—the overflow of the great waters, to the Indians of Central America; the worship of Al, the great spirit, by the Vancouver islanders; and although these are mingled with many absurd rites to propitiate the demons, yet they appear to have some connection with revelation.

1862, Charles Ede, “The Disappointment”, in Warm Hearts in Cold Regions. A Tale of Arctic Life., London: T. Nelson and Sons, […], →OCLC, pages 94–95

Those Vancouver Islanders from “up-Island” are conveniently linked only to Thetis Island via Chemainus and Salt Spring Island via Crofton.

2012, Theo Dombrowski, “Introduction”, in Secret Beaches of the Salish Sea: The Southern Gulf Islands, Vancouver, B.C.: Heritage House Publishing Company Ltd., page 8

At this time, New Westminster was the official capital of the colony of British Columbia, much to the concern and disbelief of Vancouver Islanders, who strongly believed Victoria should have retained the position.

Graftonite

The community of Grafton is fortunate to be serviced by two conscientious local newspapers. The weekly Ozaukee Press covers five of the communities in Ozaukee County and is delivered to approximately 1,000 Graftonites.

2011, Erin Blum, Saving a Dam: And the Heart of a Community, Grafton, W.I.: The Grafton Difference, page 5

When Graftonites sought help from New Hampshire Fish and Game officials, they received little more than reminders that killing bears without a license is illegal, and plenty of highly dubious victim-blaming to boot.

Yorùbá

From the late seventeenth to the early eighteenth century, merchants raided Yorùbá towns, captured men and women from large Yorùbá-speaking regions, and sold them, mainly to Portuguese traders.

2004, Kamari Maxine Clarke, Mapping Yorùbá Networks: Power and Agency in the Making of Transnational Communities, Durham, N.C., London: Duke University Press, page 88

Unlike in the past, the Yorùbá are showing they are ready to accept those who profess Awoist ideals and ideas – and are therefore proper Yorùbá – joining different political parties, an almost heretical practice until the last few years.

2014, Wale Adebanwi, Yorùbá Elites and Ethnic Politics in Nigeria: Ọbáfẹ́mi Awólọ́wọ̀ and Corporate Agency, Cambridge University Press, page 251

The piano was supported by indigenous musical instruments like the ekwe (slab and stick of the Igbo people) and the gangan (of the Yorùbá people—the talking drum) (Modfestivals Marktoberdorf, 2016b and 2016c).

2022, Rhoda Abiolu, “Intercultural Relations in Church Music of Nigeria and South Africa”, in David G. Hebert, Jonathan McCollum, editors, Ethnomusicology and Cultural Diplomacy (The Lexington Series in Historical Ethnomusicology: Deep Soundings), Lanham, M.D.: Lexington Books, part 4 (African Insights), page 266


Yorùbá

From the late seventeenth to the early eighteenth century, merchants raided Yorùbá towns, captured men and women from large Yorùbá-speaking regions, and sold them, mainly to Portuguese traders. Yorùbá-speaking men and women, more than any other West African ethnic and linguistic group, were enslaved and exported to North America, Cuba, and Brazil in large numbers.

An analysis of the Lucumí subclassifications associated with Yorùbá-speaking kingdoms and places indicates that over 75 percent had Yorùbá names, compared to less than 25 percent from other non-Yorùbá-speaking ethnonyms. This analysis confirms how the largest concentrations of Yorùbá speakers left Ouidah and Lagos, while non-Yorùbá-speaking groups generally departed to the east and west of those two ports.

2018, Henry B. Lovejoy, Prieto: Yorùbá Kingship in Colonial Cuba during the Age of Revolutions, Chapel Hill, N.C.: The University of North Carolina Press, page 103

The use of the gangan, or “talking drum,” was particularly unique because it enunciated Igbo words. What makes this special is that the drum is poised to pronounce Yorùbá words with its various distinctive tones and inflections. […] The inculcation of the drum to pronounce Igbo words draws attention to an intercultural and linguistic dimension to the talking drum’s beats where there is the superimposition of indigenous Yorùbá rhythms on the Igbo language.
