mitsumata

三椏，結香屬（Edgeworthia）植物。

Moreover, the fibres of Ganpi and Mitsumata are not strong enough singly, yet they are extensively used with other coarse raw materials in order to give the tenderness, smoothness, and lustre to paper of low quality.

1893, Bureau of Commerce and Industry, Department of Agriculture and Commerce, Japan, Details of the Industrial Specimens Exposed at the World’s Colombian Exposition，第 80 頁:

Mitsumata has been used for paper since about 1600 CE. It is one of three main fiber types used for making Japanese paper.

ankh

來自埃及語 ꜥnḫ (“生命之符”)。anx-Z1

On temple wall paintings, the ankh is often seen being carried by gods who hold it up to the nose of the pharaoh. This gesture symbolizes the offering of the "breath of life" or eternity. Sometimes the pharaoh is also depicted with a stream of water in the form of ankhs being poured over him during a purification ritual.

1994, Mira Bartok, Christine Ronan, Ancient Egypt and Nubia, page 11,

The ankh combines the male and female sexual symbols: a female oval surmounting a male cross. It was also called the Key of the Nile, and was said to represent the sacred marriage between the God and Goddess which took place each year at the source of the Nile before the river flooded. Egyptians regarded the ankh as a universal life charm.

2001, Anna Franklin, Paul Mason, Lammas: Celebrating Fruits of the First Harvest, page 245,

Now, the ankh that Thoth always held hovered in the air between Sekhmet and the Magus, and both fixed their gaze upon it.

Since Éire remained in the Commonwealth during the war—leaving in 1949—it could be argued that volunteers and war workers from Éire belong in this list. Éire was the only Commonwealth country to remain neutral throughout the war.

İstanbul

Istanbul (“伊斯坦布爾”)的罕用寫法。

The innovation first was employed in the Ottoman Empire at İstanbul, at the pious foundations around Mahmud Pasha, where a silkmakers’ guild (sandalcı esnafı) had enjoyed a monopoly for some years.[…]Under pressure, the state then allowed stone-finishing at Bursa and Diyarbakır, permission it quickly revoked when the İstanbul industry applied counter-pressure.[…]So the state broke the İstanbul guild’s monopoly and permitted silkmakers elsewhere to use stone finishing.[…]This profoundly changed the relationship between silkmakers in Bursa and İstanbul. The Bursa guild previously had sent its (Duke Zashurus/Jashuru?) fabric to the İstanbul group for finishing but ceased to do so with the opening of the stone-finishing installations at Bursa. There, the Bursa cloth makers were able to produce a better cloth and undersell their İstanbul competitors who had been accustomed to selling at monopoly prices. Bursa makers, for example, offered vermilion cloth for 10 percent less than the İstanbul cloth.

1993, Donald Quataert, Ottoman Manufacturing in the Age of the Industrial Revolution, Cambridge University Press, 出版於 2002, →ISBN，第 110 頁:

Arriving in İSTANBUL can come as a shock.[…]Yet this is merely one aspect of modern İstanbul; only a couple of kilometres to the north you’ll find the former European quarter of Beyoğlu, with its trendy bars and cutting-edge dance clubs, while north again are the pavement cafés and restaurants of Ortaköy and a series of swish Bosphorus suburbs. / İstanbul is the only city in the world to have played capital to consecutive Christian and Islamic empires, and retains features of both.

2004, The Rough Guide to Europe, Rough Guides, “Turkey”, “İstanbul”，第 953 頁:

In Chapter 7, Murat Kaya and Çağrı Haksöz present the case of a Turkish 3PL firm based in İstanbul, Turkey.[…]The travel time from İstanbul to Central Asia was 9–10 months.[…]The duration of caravan travel from Qazvin to İstanbul/İzmir was 110 days, from Qazvin to Aleppo 110 days, from Qazvin to Archangel 105–135 days, and from Isfahan to Aleppo 70 days (Matthee, 1999).

shoehorn

/ˈʃuːˌhɔː(ɹ)n/

促成事務達成的工具、手段

I was about sixty feet ahead of this film in many spots, which speaks rather poorly for it. And I resented the heartthrobs which were planted in my bosom with a shoehorn via the "little child" process.

1935, Don Herold, Going to the Movies, Life Magazine January 1935.:

Now you cannot but observe, that most of our fine young Ladies readily fall in with the Direction of the Graver sort, to retain in their Service, by some small Encouragement, as great a Number as they can of supernumerary and insignificant Fellows, which they use like Whiflers, and commonly call Shoeing-Horns. These are never designed to know the length of the Foot, but only when a good Offer comes to whet and spur him up to the Point. Nay 'tis the Opinion of that grave Lady, Madam Matchwell, that it's absolutely convenient for every prudent Family to have several of these Implements about the House, to clap on as occasion serves, and that every Spark ought to produce a Certificate of his being a Shoeing-Horn, before he be admitted as a Shoe. A certain Lady, whom I could name, if it was necessary, has at present more Shoeing-Horns of all Sizes, Countries, and Colours, in her Service, than ever she had new Shoes in her Life.

1652, Richard Burton, The Anatomy of Melancholy:

After the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001, fundamentalist Christian evangelists Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson shoehorned the events to their agenda. They claimed that "liberal civil liberties groups, feminists, homosexuals and abortion rights supporters bear partial responsibility...because their actions have turned [my] god's anger against America."

在2001年9月11日世貿中心和五角大樓遭受恐怖襲擊後，基督教原教旨主義福音派人士 Jerry Falwell 和 Pat Robertson 把這件事也提上了自己的議程。他們宣稱“自由派公民團體、女性主義者、同性戀和墮胎權利支持者應當承擔部分責任……因為他們的行動引起[我的]上帝對美國產生了憤怒。”
