For neflot readers: THREE CALLS is not a tribute to respect or honor, it is a signal to the crew that the commander arrived on the ship and took control of it, upon departure - that the senior assistant took control of the ship, and now he will be in charge of the fight for survivability etc. in which case. So that the crew, if something happens, would not be tormented by doubts about whom to obey.

Wick
- 1) Insert "wick" - at present this is a general expression, meaning scolding or punishment. But its origin was originally naval. Once upon a time, in the darkness of the historical origins of the fleet, when there were no multi-flag arches of signals, the flagship, expressing displeasure with the maneuver of the squadron ship, ordered to raise the name of this ship and the lighted and smoking fuse visible from afar. Everything immediately became very clear to the captain of this ship. The expression "the wick is still smoking" means that this boss is still under the impression of what happened, and it is better not to meddle with his problems. 2) Ship projectionist, a popular and irreplaceable personality on the ship, especially on weekends. Derived from the name of the once popular newsreel. Later, with the widespread introduction of VCRs, the social status of this freelance position fell sharply, since it is not necessary to shove a cassette tape into the jaws of a battered "Videotape" of the mind and special knowledge, even the very last goof is capable of this.

Awl
- alcohol. S. Dolzhikov explains: “Since olden times in the Navy, alcohol has a strange slang name -“ shilo ”. This name is a whole story. Once upon a time, back in the sailing fleet, vodka, a glass of which was certainly poured to the sailors before dinner (who didn’t drink, a penny was added to the salary every day), was stored in leather wineskins. The ties were somehow specially sealed there, so that it was visible if someone encroached on the sacred. So the most cunning sailors got the hang of piercing wineskins. The alcohol obtained in this way was called "awl" or "awl".

E
E
- used only in the plural: "Uh-uh", in order to gain the margin of time during the game with the boss in "why because", for instantly inventing a plausible lie to explain failure to do something. The pause length should be felt very subtly and not overexposed. If there is no experience, it is better not to use "E", but to prepare the answer options in advance.
Equator

Marine slang is now not only at sea
The sea is so absorbed into our life (and I'm not just talking about those who are now somewhere in the eastern part of the Sakhalin shelf) that its echoes can be seen everywhere, even in the most forgotten corner of the earth: vests, anchors, chains and chains, aqua, ships and schooners (from huge monuments to microscopic sailboats inside glass bottles) are all an integral part of our life. I have no doubt that in every home there is a piece of the sea.
The same can be said not only about things, but also about words. We, without noticing it ourselves, use marine expressions in our speech: "ends in the water", "rush to work", "salaga", "net" (in the sense of a lazy person). What can we say about people for whom the sea is their whole life. From the examples that I have given, it is clear that over time, some nautical phrases, having passed into ordinary life, began to be used in a different sense, while others, on the contrary, are associated only with the sea and give speech a specific "professional" shade of naval culture.
And to the attention of all those for whom the sea is not an empty phrase, I offer a selection of marine slang, which may make you laugh and enrich your vocabulary with new vivid expressions.
British sailors slang:
To be caught between the devil and the deep blue sea. Its meaning is that a person finds himself in a difficult situation when he has to choose between "the devil and the abyss of the sea."
To be taken aback. Initially, the expression was associated with blowing wind into the sail. Gradually, it acquired a new meaning, referring to people, and not to objects: to be taken by surprise, to be amazed or dazed.
Give (smb / smt) a wide berth. For seamen - to bypass at a sufficient distance or to give anchorage place to another vessel. In everyday life, this phrase can be heard in the meaning of "stay away", "keep away".The bitter end."Bitt" is a bollard on the quay, to which the ship is securely moored. In everyday life, the phrase is used to mean "until the very end."
High and dry. Speaking of a ship - if it is pulled out or washed ashore or is aground. Speaking about a person - if he was left with nothing.
Naturally, British naval slang and a sense of humor are not devoid of:
To swallow the anchor- to retire
Bubblehead- diver
Chicken Chernobyl- Chernobyl-style chicken curry, the hottest curry in the world
Putting the Queen to bed- this is how British sailors fondly call the launching of the flag of the Royal Navy at sunset
And this is how one sailor answered the question of his dentist “What are you complaining about?”: Tis from the aftermost grinder aloft on the starboard side(It hurts aft root from above, on the right side)
Drinking shouldn't be forgotten either:"Let's drink to the bottom!" - one of the many toasts of the sailors. The owners of the cargo ships were forced to make sure that the workers carefully put the cargo on the bottom, and did not throw it. Hence the toast "To the Bottom!", Which arose at the end of the 19th century.
Drinking a toast- propose a toast
Toast to health is a very old tradition. But few people know that the beginning of the tradition was laid by the families of English sailors. Usually a piece of toasted bread (toast) was thrown into a punch or mulled wine and drank to the health of those at sea.
Some of the slang of Russian sailors:
The well-known term "Crunch time" comes from the English words "over" and "all" - that is, "all up"
Expression "Salaga" for a long time means a young and inexperienced sailor. And it comes from the herring fish (small herring). Say, as the Baltic herring is not yet a real fish, so the owner of this nickname is not a real sailor yet.
Word "Polundra" is a tracing copy of the English fall under, that is, "to fall down." As an example to this expression, V. Dal cites the following phrase: “Polundra, I'm flying myself! - shouted the sailor, falling from the tops. "
In a word "Net" In the meaning of "lazy," they began to call sailors, whose duties included giving to the admiral suffering from seasickness something like a sack every time he felt unwell. Compared to the hard labor of the rest of the sailors, these duties were laughable. From this, by the way, the net and the saying "in the fleet do not catch butterflies."
Pointing bikes - tell incredible stories. For sailors, "baiting" means releasing, loosening the rope.
Finally, the French nautical expressions:
Prendre une biture(take the anchor rope bay) - drink your fill. The original expression meant taking a sufficient length of rope, and in the middle of the 19th century it became the meaning of an indecent dose of alcohol.
Une vielille baderne(old rags) - someone who is no longer good for anything, an old nag.
Aller / naviguer de conserve(go canned) - go together. In the 16th century, "canned food" was a group of ships that went together to make it easier to defend themselves from pirates ("canned food" from the verb "conserver" - to protect, protect, preserve).
Etre en nage(to be swimming) - drenched in sweat. This expression can be used both literally and figuratively.
Tomber en panne(to fall into a drift) - to break down, to be faulty. By the way, the word "panne" gave rise to the "pan-pan" voice radiotelephone signal, indicating an emergency situation of a ship, aircraft, etc.
Etre du même bord(to be on the same side) - to be a supporter, to have the same opinion / views. In the 17th century, the ship itself was called "board". While on board, passengers, sailors or soldiers forgot their ranks and positions on land in order to protect the ship together in the face of dangers, storms and attacks.
Quelle galère!(what a galley!) - what a bad luck! sheer punishment! (exclamation in life's difficulties, problems, difficult situations). In general, the connection with the galleymen is obvious.
Branle bas de combat(bunks down to fight) - hustle and bustle, disorganized excitement, rush work. The command to "bunk down to fight" was given when the enemy attacked the ship. Then the sailors had to unhook the hammocks on which they slept in order to have more space during the battle.
Avoir du vent dans la voile(to have the wind in the sails) - to be drunk, to stagger. The expression compares a drunken person to a ship that is wandering through the water under the influence of wind in an indefinite direction. In addition, with a fair wind, the ship heeled towards the bow, also like a drunken one.
Avoil le compas dans l "œil(have a compass in your eye) - accurately determine the distance without instruments. The origin of the expression is attributed to Michelangelo.
Marcher à la voile età la vapeur(go under sail and under steam) - be bisexual. The expression refers metaphorically to the era of the emergence of steam ships, when ships used both steam engines and sails.
Contre vents et marr
ées(against the wind and tides) - in defiance of the elements, in spite of everything.
Mettre le grapin sur ...(put the hook on ...) - to take possession of something by force, to get hold of it. We are talking about a grappling hook that clung to the side of an enemy ship. With the help of several such abandoned hooks, the ships were pulled to each other.

It is possible only when a certain speed is reached and on the planing contours of the hull (very low deadrise on the transom). Launching flat stones with a pancake through the water is an option for planing. The stone will sink when it stops, but when gliding, the forces of Archimedes do not work, and while maintaining the required speed, a flat stone will be able to cross the Atlantic, provided it is absolutely calm, of course.

Swing-out column- type of transmission with a horizontal shaft. Despite the fact that the engine itself is located inside the hull of the boat, thanks to the use of a cardan transmission, it allows the column to work like an outboard motor - to recline when hitting an obstacle and adjust the angle of attack.
R
Redan- can be transverse and longitudinal. A ledge, a step on the bottom of planing high-speed boats and cutters. Without deep insight into hydrodynamics, longitudinal steps are used to stabilize movement and to correct the wetted surface, a kind of "wet" triangle, which is formed during the planing mode. Transverse steps are designed to reduce the wetted surface at high speeds. However, the use of both types of redans should be done only after rather complicated calculations. By applying the hull reduction without calculating hydrodynamics and a bunch of characteristics, it is possible to significantly worsen the sailing performance of the vessel. For each hull from reputable manufacturers, redans are used only after a series of test tests in the pool and in full size in open water, which, together with the calculation of the designers, determine their number and configuration. In the displacement mode, the steps, especially the transverse ones, play a negative role.
Reverse- changing the direction of action to the opposite. Definition for motors. On suspended babies up to 3.5 hp, the reverse is carried out by turning the motor around its axis. On older motors - by shifting the gear lever. In fact, the inclusion of reverse gear.

Bell- a kind of battle in the ship's bell. Recently, the bell itself began to be called a bell itself, which, in general, is incorrect.
WITH
Skeg- the lower part of the gearbox of the outboard motor or corner post, feather-fin. Some yacht steering devices also have a skeg - a profile in front of the rudder blade.

Pirates! The spirit of freedom and rebellion! Who among us did not love them in childhood? And even after many years, sympathy and interest in their persons and among the older generation does not wane. In this material, we will recall, and maybe learn new, original, inspiring and funny pirate phrases and expressions.
Idea for a children's party
"Thousand devils! Piastres! Anchor me to the bay! " So, let's begin. Robbers and romantics, brutal and brave at the same time, traveling the seas in search of prey, making their living by robbery and raid. As you know, the sea is a harsh friend and being in captivity at sea leaves an imprint on pirates. "And the sailors remember God when the sea hugs them tightly."
