gung ho

源自官話 工合 (gōnghé)的词语误用，其被误解释为了工 (gōng, “工作”) + 合 (hé, “一起”)即“一起工作”，但其是工業合作社／工业合作社 (Gōngyè Hézuòshè)的简称。“一起工作”的解释是由20世纪30年代驻扎在中国的美国海军准将埃文斯·卡尔逊作出的。其成为了卡尔逊领导的斗志昂扬的团的口号和外号，最后导致其他海军士兵将这个词解释为“狂热的”。在美国，其在1943年战争片《孤岛突击队》（Gung Ho!）的影响下普及开来。

faggot

源自中古英語 fagot，源自古法語 fagot (“一捆棒子”)，其词源不详。不太可能源自古奧克語 fagot或意大利語 fagotto，因为它们的出现晚于古法语词。亦对比意大利語 fangotto和西班牙語 fajo (“捆，摞”)。可能源自通俗拉丁語 *facus的一指小词，其源自拉丁語 fascis (“一捆柴”)。亦对比古高地德語 fazza (“捆，摞，堆”)。fagotto 的同源對似詞。参见fag。
与人有关的义项可能源自“一捆棒子”，并得到了faygele的增补，其源自意第緒語 פֿייגעלע (feygele, “同性恋”, 字面意思是“小鸟”)，其与英語 fowl有关。

pig

源自中古英語 pigge (“小猪”)（原指小猪，年长猪是swyn），多半源自古英語 *picga（仅可考于picgbrēad (“猪饲料”)等复合词中），源自原始西日耳曼語 *piggō、*puggō (“小猪”)。对比中古荷蘭語 pogge、puggen、pigge、pegsken (“猪崽”)、中古低地德語 pugge、pûke (“猪崽”)。本词使用于体重快速增加的动物幼崽，所以其可能是源自动词“to big”，源自中古英語 biggen、byggen，源自古諾爾斯語 byggja、byggva (“建造”)，源自原始日耳曼語 *būwijaną (“建造”)，源自原始印歐語 *bʰuH- (“成为，成长为”)。Pokorny认为词根与*bū-、*bew- (“肿，胀”)有关，以解释“pig”和“big”之间的互换关系。
有时有人指出其与早期现代荷蘭語 bigge（现代big (“猪崽”)）、西弗里斯蘭語 bigge (“猪崽”)和中古低地德語的相似词有关，但是“发音难以解释”。一些文献指出这些词“多半无关”，其他人认为这一联系“有可能，但无法确定”。
指“警察”的俚语义至晚自1785年起可考。

可能受到了古撒克遜語 halo!的影响，其为halōn (“喊，抓”)的命令式，为渡船船夫呼喊时使用，与古高地德語 hala、hola!有关，其为halōn、holōn (“抓取”)的命令式。详见hallo。
