- Cthulhu_ 6y agoThat's like saying RIP in peace.
- Zsolt 6y agoOr Sahara desert, Soviet union, ATM machine, CD disc, chai tea... Think my favorite is The Los Angeles Angels - the the angels angels
- xyzelement 6y agoI don't understand why Sahara and Soviet Union are on this list?
- Zsolt 6y agoIt's a bit of a reach: "sahara" in Arabic means "deserts", and soviet means council or board.
- Shared404 6y agohttps://www.etymonline.com/word/sahara https://www.etymonline.com/word/sahara https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_(council)#Etymology https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_(council)#Etymology Much like Los Angeles, if you translate the words back to their original language they become redundant.
- xyzelement 6y agoThat's wrong then. The word "soviet" means "council".. To the extent that its etymology connects to "togetherness" it just refers to the group of people coming together to make decisions. The "union" refers to the union of the socialist republics. You can easily have "soviets" without a union, and you can obviously have a union without soviets. Source: born in the USSR
- Shared404 6y agoGood to know, thanks for sharing. Based on what it said the direct translation was I had thought it was weird, but I figured the Wikipedia page would know more than I.

- raisedbyninjas 6y agoThe app is called PIN Identification Program. It isn't redundant.
