WORD(s) OF THE WEEK

Colly

The lyrics to the “The Twelve Days of Christmas” was first published in the 1700s and based on a French poem. What we sing as Day 4: Four Calling Birds was originally written as “Colly” which is a European Black Bird. “Colly” is derived from “Coal-y” meaning black and where Border Collies get their name.

WORD(s) OF THE WEEK

Mondegreen

A mondegreen (/ˈmɒndɪˌɡriːn/ ) is a mishearing or misinterpretation of a phrase in a way that gives it a new meaning.[1] Mondegreens are most often created by a person listening to a poem or a song; the listener, being unable to hear a lyric clearly, substitutes words that sound similar and make some kind of sense.[2][3] The American writer Sylvia Wright coined the term in 1954, recalling a childhood memory of her mother reading the Scottish ballad “The Bonnie Earl o’ Moray“, and mishearing the words “laid him on the green” as “Lady Mondegreen”.

WORD OF THE WEEK

Mandella Effect

Mandela effect, popularized phenomenon in which a group of people collectively misremember facts, events, or other details in a consistent manner. Paranormal researcher and author Fiona Broome conceptualized the effect after discovering that she and others possessed strong, yet false, memories about the death of South African anti-apartheid activist (and later president) Nelson Mandela while in prison during the 1980s. Research has found evidence for a specific Mandela effect concerning the misidentification of certain pop culture images; however, intense debate has occurred over potential causal mechanisms, many of which include pseudoscientific explanations.
