You might be wondering where they came up with that term describing Errol Flynn.

The traditional swashbuckler, described by the Oxford English Dictionary as ‘a swaggering bravo or ruffian; a noisy braggadocio’, was, indeed, someone who ‘swashed his buckle’. To ‘swash’, in the sixteenth century, was to dash or strike something violently, while a ‘buckler’ was a small round shield, carried by a handle at the back. So a swashbuckler was literally one who made a loud noise by striking his own or his opponent’s shield with his sword. Errol Flynn also had roles as both a buccaneer and a musketeer. The origin of musketeer is quite simple: a soldier who fought with a musket. But a buccaneer may surprise. It originally meant someone who hunted wild oxen, because boucaner in French was to dry or cure meat on a boucan: a barbecue, in the manner of the Indians. The name was first given to the French hunters of St Domingo, who prepared the flesh of the wild oxen and boars in this way. This included hunters at sea: pirates who lurked off the West Indies, and so over time a buccaneer became a byword for a hostile sea rover.

Next on the list is Hankerchief or "hanky."

Well first off you are mispronouncing it. The word is Handkerchief ... hand + kerchief ( in old English ker=to cover, chief=head). In old French the word is couvrechief.

Remember: "And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap, Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap" ("A Visit from Saint Nicholas," by Clement Clarke Moore).

Miami Man Arrested for Threatening to BEHEAD RABBI Outside Synagogue
screamed out “Allahu Akbar”
......................................................................
The Gateway Pundit ^ | 3/10/15 | Jim Hoft

A Miami man was arrested by police after he threatened to behead two Jewish men at synagogue.

Diego Charr also screamed out “Allahu Akbar” outside the synagogue.



Local 10 reported:

A man is facing charges after harassing a rabbi outside the Ohev Shalom Congregation in Miami Beach, police said.

According to the arrest report, Diego Chaar, 24, first yelled out “Allahu akbar,” which is translated from Arabic as God is great or God is greater.

Police said the Rabbi David Weberman and a witness ignored Chaar, at which point he yelled, “Heads will be cut off” and “I will cut your head off.”

The victim feared for his life at that point and called 911. The witness followed Chaar in his vehicle while the victim followed him on foot. Police officers located the suspect hiding behind a car, filled out an incident report and released him at the scene.

The report states Chaar walked by the synagogue again and again began to scream “Allahu akbar.” Police were called for a second time, at which point Chaar was taken into custody.


Diego Charr was arrested after threatening to behead to Jewish men.

JP Updates has more.

According to the Police, the two men – David Weberman, 58, and Issac Rosenberg 32, – were sitting outside the Ohev Shalom Synagogue located at 7055 bonita drive at around 9:25 pm on Saturday night when Diego Chaar, 24, walked by with a friend and yelled at them, “Allahu Akbar.” The two first ignored him. But them Chaar yelled twice, ‘your heads will be cut off’, which prompted the two men to leave the scene in fear of their safety.

Weberman immediately alerted the police and described the identity of the suspect and his compliance.

Miami Beach Police responded to the scene, and after canvasing the area with Weberman and Rosenberg they located the two men hiding behind cars. The two Jewish men identified the suspect, but he denied having said anything to them. The officers then let them walk free.
