@GeorgePompidou You’re an organist? This explains . . . much.

George Pompidou

I am for sure not an organist.

I tried to play the organ once.

tchrist

Drummer, eh?

I was in a band once. We had five musicians and a drummer.

George Pompidou

I enjoy drumsticks as much as the next guy, but I hardly see myself as such an enthusiast of ice cream to call myself a Drummer.

I play the piano. the only reasonable instrument ever.

tchrist

Being a pianist leaves your sexual orientation open-ended; being an organist, not so much.

Unless you pull out all the stops. Then anything is possible.

Cerberus

Otherwise, it has to be supernatural.

@GeorgePompidou Pédé, what is that?

tchrist

@Cerberus Request for Latin2English("Phainopepla nitens").

George Pompidou

@Cerberus fag

Cerberus

In French? What's the etymology?

George Pompidou

very not nice, but since I'm not immersed in French language and culture, I am not fazed by it.

tchrist

1:19 AM

It’s one of the Greek2English("Ptilogonatidae").

Man, why can’t scholars write in English, damn it!

Actually, I guess Phainopepla must also be Greek not Latin.

Tastes like some sort antitussive agent to me.

Cerberus

Pepla I do not recognise, nor can I find it in the dictionary.

KitFox

I don't like it.

It's too bumpy.

tchrist

Oh.

KitFox

Maybe I'm saying it wrong.

tchrist

> The phainopepla or northern phainopepla[2] (Phainopepla nitens) is the most northerly representative of the mainly tropical Central American family Ptilogonatidae, the silky flycatchers. Its name is from the Greek phain pepla meaning "shining robe" in reference to the male's plumage.

Cerberus

1:21 AM

Ah, it is strangely in the Latin dictionary, but not the Greek one, even though it is Greek.

> peplis, ĭdis, f., = πεπλίς, the name of two plants, one of which was also called porcilaca, Plin. 20, 20, 81, 210; and the other syce, meconion, or mecon aphrodes, id. 27, 12, 93, 119.

tchrist

Qurious!

Cerberus

Phainô means to shine, among other things, yes.

tchrist

@GeorgePompidou No smoking in this chat.

Cerberus

Nitens means something like glittering.

George Pompidou

huh?

@tchrist either that was coinci-mental or you are stalking me somehow

Cerberus

1:23 AM

Or excercising.

(Two different words that are probably not related.)

tchrist

@GeorgePompidou Thanks for downloading that from CPAN. And you are a messy eater.

Cerberus

So "shining shining peplis".

tchrist

Yeah, reredundant.

Cerberus

I don't know why they say "robe".

George Pompidou

what on earth

Cerberus

1:25 AM

Perhaps the Greek word peplis for the plant originally came from something that meant robe, but neither word is in the dictionary, then.

I think the Thesaurus Linguae Graecae, the best dictionary, is still working on the letter K.

tchrist

Nitere is to glow, like nitidous meaning sparkling clean.

Cerberus

Yes.

tchrist

This may be crosstalk from Spanish nitidoso, and not mean that in English. I do not know.

Because every time I use nitidous people look at me quite queerly.

Cerberus

Oh, wait, I am totally mixing things up. The Thesaurus Linguae Latinae is the best for Latin.

The Greek one is just a corpus.

tchrist

That’s strange.

Cerberus

1:27 AM

Nitidus exists in Latin, I believe.

And it means shiny.

Glistening, glittering. Something like that.

> nĭtĭdus, a, um, adj. [niteo], shining, glittering, bright, polished, clear (class.; syn.: splendidus, lautus).

George Pompidou

@tchrist why does it matter? what are you doing to me?

tchrist

nítido, da. (Del lat. nitĭdus).
 1. adj. Limpio, terso, claro, puro, resplandeciente.
 2. adj. Que se distingue bien, no confuso.

I always think that nitidous means clean.

Cerberus

@tchrist This probably means something like "born with/in feathers/down/leaves".

Primarily down.

tchrist

> ˈnitidous a., Bot. ‘having a smooth and polished surface’ (Ogilvie 1882).

Hm.

Cerberus

What about it?

tchrist

1:31 AM

I thought it meant clean.

Like when someone has finished polishing their silverware or faucetry.

Cerberus

Well, "shiny, clear".

Only smooth surfaces can be nitidus...

tchrist

I guess I see how that would work out. I seem to have carried around a word in my head that nobody else has.

Cerberus

They have to reflect light.

tchrist

Right.

Cerberus

Feathers or hair can be nitidus, though.

tchrist

1:33 AM

That is the case of this bird, yes.

Cerberus

And even skin, but that would be almost metaphorical: the nitidous pale skin of a virgin, or something.

Maybe that would sooner be candidus.

"Bright white".

tchrist

Yes. The white that shines.

Silver, or something in English. Not sure.

There was a shiny black, too, IIRC.

We don’t have matte/gloss variants of most colors in English.

Or at least, most people don't.

Yesterday I told the guy that my bag was bronze colored, and he said he couldn’t find it, that there were only two black bags and one brown one.

He didn’t understand the shininess I was trying to convey.

Cerberus

I think silver would sooner be nitidus...

tchrist

Shiny brown sounds like shit on a shingle; bronze sounds better.

Well, or copper, but that has more red to it.

Cerberus

Hmm.

Bronze can also be green...

The patina.

tchrist

1:37 AM

The patina is green, yes.

But bronze as a color is not a green one, I believe.

Cerberus

It should have a patina.

tchrist

The OED is not being helpful.

macbook# colorgrep bronze
bronze: Of the color of bronze, bronze-colored.

Cerberus

Spank it.

tchrist

Wolfe’s fuligin for matte-black is an attempt at distinguishing it from shiny-black.

Except it is blacker than black, like certain bizarre new substances with strange light-sucking properties.

I have no words. I have drugs. Sigh.

That is a male phainopepla. Can you see why he is called that?

They are a bit cryptic, insofar as any all-black bird can be considered cryptic.

Audubon pickies. In flight, they flash white.

Cerberus

Huh.

Why is fuligin black?

Fulgor is lightning...

@tchrist Wait, the bird has the name of a plant?

Ohh wait.

It is not from peplis ("certain plant(s)") at all, but from peplos, "any woven cloth used for a covering, sheet, carpet, curtain, veil, to cover a chariot, funeral-urn, seat".

That explains the "robe"!

tchrist

1:49 AM

Ah.

Cerberus

Why did my dictionary not find that the first time?

Oh, I only searched for pepl and pepla, now I remember.

I should have dug deeper after finding peplis.

tchrist

@Cerberus Sooty.

Cerberus

Ohh from fuligo.

tchrist

fuliginous /fjuːˈlɪdʒɪnəs/, a.
Etymology: ad. L. fūlīginōs-us, f. fūlīgo soot: see -ous. Cf. Fr. fuligineux, -euse.
1. Pertaining to, consisting of, containing, or resembling soot; sooty.

Yes.

Cerberus

Jesus, I always forget that there's fulgo, caligo, and fuligo.

Fulgo and fuligo are apparently not related.

tchrist

1:53 AM

Although I swear I always said it like "foo again".

@cornbreadninja麵包忍者 He really enjoys it.

Cerberus

I don't know any of those other brands.

Neoprene is not a brand to my knowledge.

It is a spongy material.

For braces.

cornbread ninja 麵包忍者

What are you doing with neoprene? Immobilizing?

tchrist

Knee brace.

Neoprene

Neoprene or polychloroprene is a family of synthetic rubbers that are produced by polymerization of chloroprene. Neoprene exhibits good chemical stability, and maintains flexibility over a wide temperature range. It is used in a wide variety of applications, such as laptop sleeves, orthopedic braces (wrist, knee, etc.), electrical insulation, liquid and sheet applied elastomeric membranes or flashings, and automotive fan belts. == Production == Neoprene is produced by free-radical polymerization of 2-chlorobutadiene. In commercial production, this polymer is prepared by free radical emuls...
