What Are Exoplanets And How NASA Detects Life Beyond Our Solar System
10 Words We Learnt From Our Favourite TV Shows
Stop opening the fridge like you’re expecting to find Narnia in there’. Yoda, Stroom Troopers and Narnia meant nothing to us before the movies released, today we see these words everywhere. If a movie that lasted for not more than 3 hours could have such a long lasting effect on our vocabulary, just imagine the series that we binge watch, everyday, allday! There is massive scope of mimicking words used by iconic characters, when they mean nothing at all in the real world. Here are some words most of you will identify with,
D’OH
Homer Simpson, the iconic duff guzzler, has popularized his catch phrase ‘D’oh’ in these 26 years to an unimaginable extent. It doesn’t only catch on to the other characters in the show, but to us all. D’oh is commonly used by Homer when he says something stupid, when he knows he’s going to get into trouble and when he clumsily injures himself. And we all know we’ve had our share of D’oh moments. Praise to Homie.
LAWYERED
From ‘How I Met Your Mother’ fame, comes Marshall’s court weapon. He uses it when a debate has been won, with no chance of rebuttal. It’s a word that’s made winning an argument extra sweet. Kudos to Marshall for giving us a bar-room debate punchline.
