Welcome to the Mature Social Intrigues of JZ's Sci-Fantasy.
Jeremiah has an appreciation history and roots of the words, and sees a number of gaps in the general lexicon of American language. He also understands the difference between American and British, and holds that distinction.
For variety reasons, Jeremiah is rebirthing past words and phrases, as well as creating a number of his own for the writings. Several are presented here.
A magician, Magi, sorcerer, wizard, etc., generally work with the higher forces of the universe.
Though the military uses this term, it is rarely spelled out as, “A-S-A-P.” It is spoken as a word, as in get over here ‘aesapp.’
These terms are the act of mystically viewing distant places. This is often done with tools – such as mirrors, crystal spheres, dark bowls of water and such – in order to gain improve effects, even making the task simpler.
Air Force Satellite Control Network (pronounced ‘aff-scan’) provides operational support to assorted military operations though the satellite network.
Consolidated Base Personnel Offices; the general administration facilities on Air Force bases, pronounced ‘see-boe.’
Beside sloppy salutes in many of the films and shows produced for the general public, the term ‘at ease’ is often misrepresented. It does not mean for the person to become casual. There’s a specific stance the American service person goes into. 'Attention' is rigid, though ‘At Ease’ is less so. When 'At Ease,' legs are slightly parted and hands are laid overlapped at the base of the back with thumbs interlocked. Otherwise they are to remain attentive to the formation.
Cubit:
Like other terms that JZ is resurrecting, the cubit is used on occasions for various reasons and is a relative length from the elbow to the tips of the fingers – roughly 18 inches. The term is used in the biblical text fairly often – notably with the ark no was supposedly asked to construct.
Dimcosm:
A term coined by BCW-JZ referring to alternate realities and timelines, a blending of dimensional cosmos.
E.T.O.R.:
Standing for Extra-Terra Observation and Research, and pronounced ‘ettoer,’ this is one of the facilities with in Dayton Complex, associated with Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Quite fictional, this feeds into the ufology conspiracy related to the Air Force Base associated with the Roswell incident, as well as other elements with the mythology of UFOs.
Femella:
This comes from Latin, and is any woman or girl – and like masle, femella is less clinical.
Mammae:
Since JZ writes at a mature level, references to femella's physique – as well as masles – are presented. Mammae is as bosom/breasts of the female physique.
Masle:
Coming from Middle French, this term is for male, having a less clinical or zoological flavor, and embodies all ages, unlike man or boy.
Sergeants:
Unless things have changed drastically, the Air Force generally does not refer to sergeants as ‘Sarge.’ They do say ‘N-C-O’ for NonCommissioned Officers, and there is also the NCOIC – NonCommissioned Officers In Charge – and it is spoken as ‘N-C-O-I-C.'
