@TodayIFoundOut1-or-2 #Etymologies that were taught almost-as-well-as Marina @HotFourWords - #Etymology
In this video, Simon Whistler tells his YouTube-fans,
The word “Etymology” is built on “True Sense, Original Meaning (Real, Actual, be Stable) + Study of, a Speaking of” (Linguistic Science treating of the Historical Evolution of Words).
But I wonder, 'Where's Marina "HotForWords" now?' (You remember Marina "HotForWords," the very-first YouTube-millionaire (the first video-contributor millionaire), a Russian 'exchange-student' who fascinated many of us with the mysterious pasts of today's common words?)
The latest news I could find was that Marina Orlova (once told she was "too short" to be a Hollywood model) is now a GoDaddy-girl—a model for the Internet Service Provider (much like Danica Patrick and other spokesmodels).
... but then a story put out the same day calls her "a former GoDaddy-girl!" Hmmmm ...
... Oh! I got the dates mixed up! The first one was originally posted ten years ago, the second one nine years ago.
Another search found another two conflicting sources: one that said she was single, and another that says she got married one week after the first site was published (although I don't know where they got the decription that showed on the search-results page ... " “Due to these recent events, we deeply apologize to all people who have worked unceasingly to …")

Is that her?

But now I remember, 'Why don't I just read her Twitter page?' Mainly because that Marina Orlova may not be HotForWords Marina Orlova.
A little more searching finds a couple more videos: one from 2014 where she introduces her artwork-website (which seems to be 'hacked'—the address tried to upload a bunch of viruses to my computer); one from 2018 where she goes on-&-on about her artistic gardening ideas;
