![]() ![]() (They say the derivation "has no foundation whatsoever.") Granted, some take this to be a folk etymology, perhaps a corruption of a Tupi or Guarani word for "wave." The conjecture that it originally came from a native word amassona meaning "boat destroyer" is given by various old sources, but this was disputed as early as 1857 by Daniel P. But the Anglo-Saxon name Eoferwic was evidently a folk etymology of sorts, reinterpreting the earlier toponym Eboracum, a Latinization of Celtic Eborakon, said to mean "place of yew trees." So should the "true" name of (New) York relate to boars or yews?Īmazon is given as "The Boat Destroyer," although it's usually said that Francisco de Orellana named the river for the mythical Greek tribe of Amazons after a 1541 battle with local female warriors (or perhaps male warriors whom Orellana mistook to be female). "New York" is given as "New Wild Boar Village." That's based on the idea that York in England derives from Old English eofor "wild boar" + Latin vicus village. Some of the etymological glosses given in The Atlas of True Names are misleading in other ways. Kangaroo is another one, as discussed by Cecil Adams in his column " The Straight Dope." After discovering the parallels between the supposed derivations of kangaroo, Yucatán, and Nome, Adams writes: "Having now had the 'I don't know' yarn turn up in three different parts of the globe, I can draw one of two conclusions: either explorers are incredible saps, or somebody's been pulling our leg." The Nome = "I don't know" and Yucatán = "I don't understand you" stories are replicated by other popular etymologies that tell of miscommunications between European explorers and indigenous people. (The Nome Convention and Visitor Bureau accepts this derivation.) Wikipedians suggest that Nome could actually have been named after a similar Scandinavian toponym, but I don't know how plausible that is. A 1901 letter by George Davidson (recently noted here by Jon Weinberg) provides another popular theory, that the map notation ? Name was misread as C. Similarly, the story that the name of the Alaskan town of Nome comes from a phrase meaning "I don't know" ( ki-no-me) goes back to 1905 at least. Even Hormes and Peust give another possibility: Nahuatl yuhcatlan "abandoned place" (see discussion in this report by David & Alejandra Bolles, who throw a few more potential origins on the fire). There are plenty of competing theories, such as Bishop Diego de Landa's story that it's a Hispanicized version of Ci uthan, meaning "they say it." Or perhaps it's from Nahuatl Yokatlan "place of riches" (disputed here), or from a word meaning "massacre" (from yuka "to kill" and yeta "many" - so says Adrian Room's Place Names of the World). The Wikipedia page on the conquistador Francisco Hernández de Córdoba ( Spanish, English) traces it back to Fray Toribio de Benavente Motolinia's Historia de los indios de la Nueva España ( History of the Indians of New Spain, c. For instance, there's the old story about Yucatán meaning "I don't understand (you)," which goes back to early Spanish sources. Some of the popular etymologies are quite persistent. Through the maps, we wanted to show what they saw."įrom a brief examination of the "true" names given on the maps, it appears that the cartographers have accepted a good number of disputed derivations and folk etymologies. "The names give you an insight into what the people saw when they first looked at a place, almost with the eyes of children. "We wanted to let the Earth tells its own story," Stephan Hormes told Der Spiegel. Tolkien's maps of Middle Earth, which include names like "Dead Marshes" and "Mount Doom." So they've filled their world maps with similarly descriptive toponyms. The cartographers, Stephan Hormes and his wife Silke Peust, say they were inspired by J.R.R. It's a very clever idea, but in execution it enshrines some questionable notions of "truth." As reported by Der Spiegel and picked up by the New York Times blog The Lede, two German cartographers have created The Atlas of True Names, which substitutes place names around the world with glosses based on their etymological roots. ![]()

Most ethical naturalists hold that we have empirical knowledge of moral truths. Ethical naturalism holds that there are objective moral properties and that these properties are reducible or stand in some metaphysical relation (such as supervenience) to entirely non-ethical properties.Metaethical theories are commonly categorized as either a form of realism or as one of three forms of " anti-realism" regarding moral facts: ethical subjectivism, error theory, or non-cognitivism. moral universalism for the minimalist sense) holds that such propositions are about robust or mind-independent facts, that is, not facts about any person or group's subjective opinion, but about objective features of the world. Most forms of cognitivism hold that some such propositions are true (including moral realism and ethical subjectivism), as opposed to error theory, which asserts that all are erroneous. ![]() ![]() Moral semantics attempts to answer the question, "What is the meaning of moral terms or judgments?" Answers may have implications for answers to the other two questions as well.Ĭognitivist theories hold that evaluative moral sentences express propositions (i.e., they are 'truth-apt' or ' truth bearers', capable of being true or false), as opposed to non-cognitivism. An answer to any of the three example questions above would not itself be a normative ethical statement. Garner and Rosen say that answers to the three basic questions "are not unrelated, and sometimes an answer to one will strongly suggest, or perhaps even entail, an answer to another." A metaethical theory, unlike a normative ethical theory, does not attempt to evaluate specific choices as being better, worse, good, bad, or evil although it may have profound implications as to the validity and meaning of normative ethical claims. Asks such questions as how we can know if something is right or wrong, if at all.How may moral judgments be supported or defended? (moral epistemology).Asks questions of whether moral judgments are absolute or relative, of one kind or many kinds, etc.What is the nature of moral judgments? (moral ontology).Asks about the meanings of such words as 'good', 'bad', 'right' and 'wrong' (see value theory).What is the meaning of moral terms or judgments? (moral semantics).Some theorists argue that a metaphysical account of morality is necessary for the proper evaluation of actual moral theories and for making practical moral decisions others reason from opposite premises and suggest that studying moral judgments about proper actions can guide us to a true account of the nature of morality.Īccording to Richard Garner and Bernard Rosen, there are three kinds of metaethical problems, or three general questions: Another distinction often made is that normative ethics involves first-order or substantive questions metaethics involves second-order or formal questions. While normative ethics addresses such questions as "What should I do?", evaluating specific practices and principles of action, metaethics addresses questions such as "What is goodness?" and "How can we tell what is good from what is bad?", seeking to understand the assumptions underlying normative theories. It is one of the three branches of ethics generally studied by philosophers, the others being normative ethics (questions of how one ought to be and act) and applied ethics (practical questions of right behavior in given, usually contentious, situations). In metaphilosophy and ethics, metaethics is the study of the nature, scope, and meaning of moral judgment. ![]() ![]() Unfortunately, to this day, Airbnb doesn’t provide any public API.

With the 2021 NFL Draft in the books, here are my updated top-36 rookies assuming a superflex format with PPR scoring (you can find my 1QB rookie rankings here). Scarcity at the position pushes many quarterbacks up into the first round of superflex rookie rankings, which in turn pushes talent at running back and wide receiver down into the second and third rounds. However, in superflex leagues, consistent producers at QB2 and QB3 on dynasty rosters are necessary depth since it’s beneficial for the vast majority of teams start two quarterbacks every week. In 1QB leagues, few quarterback prospects are selected in the first round of rookie drafts.
