croc

Etymology 2

red herring

Etymology
One possible origin of the idiom was that red herring were used to train dogs to track scents. This was true, but the modern meaning of a false trail may have been popularised in a news story by English journalist William Cobbett, c. 1805, in which he claimed that as a boy he used a red herring (a cured and salted herring) to mislead hounds following a trail; the story served as an extended metaphor for the London press, which had earned Cobbett's ire by publishing false news accounts regarding Napoleon. The OED has another possible earlier origin in the legacy of clergyman Jasper Mayne in 1672 when he misled a servant by leaving him "Somewhat that would make him Drink after his Death" in a large trunk. When the trunk was opened, the contents were found to be red herring.

An allusion to soldiers' red uniforms; is, reciprocally, a slang term for the fish.

Noun
(plural always "red herrings" for all senses except the literal fish, which may take either)

 * 1) A herring that is cured in smoke and brine strong enough to turn the flesh red; a type of kipper.
 * 2)  A clue, information, argument, etc. that is or is intended to be misleading, diverting attention from the real answer or issue.
 * 3)  A red herring prospectus.
 * 4)  A soldier.
 * 1)  A red herring prospectus.
 * 2)  A soldier.

amidst

Etymology
From, from. . Root from, , , from , from  (English ).

Preposition

 * 1) In the midst or middle of; surrounded or encompassed by; among.

Usage notes
As with other words with excrescent suffix, amidst is generally considered synonymous with simpler , and amid is preferred by style guides on both sides of the Atlantic.

Further, amidst/amid are similar in meaning to – but distinct from – amongst/among. Amid(st) denotes that something is "in the midst of", "surrounded by" other things, and is used when the idea of separate things is not prominent. Among(st) denotes that something is mingling with other separable things ("blessed art thou among women").

Some speakers feel it is an obsolete form of amid. Amidst is more common in British English than American English, though it is used to some degree in both.

User talk:Sten

Hi Sten. Thanks very much for all your Danish contributions. A couple of suggestions though. We don't wikify the language names for the common national languages anymore, and even more important, you should add the gender of nouns because they are hard for us non-native speakers to know. For "en nouns" put c and for "et nouns" put n. Thanks again. — Hippietrail 22:28, 2 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Hi Hippietrail You're very helpful: I didn't know how to clarify the strange, Danish mixture of masculine and feminine gender, so I just left out the markers. I'll retrace my steps and make it right!

Usage notes
The endings of the alternative, somewhat Finnicized forms and especially  better fit the structure of Finnish.

Most Finns don't know that the letter in the form  is silent (and that the letter  is pronounced ) and are not sure how to decline this form because no native Finnish nouns end in  in the singular. They therefore consciously or unconsciously change the ending in the nominative to the more Finnish ending in speaking, despite the fact that the French pronunciation (with  and silent ) is the only one listed in the Kielitoimiston sanakirja.

Some Finns have trouble pronouncing the sound and many the sound, so the completely Finnicized form  is in fact widespread in speech even though the spelling  is the most common.
