If you mean Timour or Timur, its a first name of Turkish derivation meaning "iron."\n\nhttp://behindthename.com/php/view.php?name=timur\n\nIf you are talking about the Indonesian island Timor, or the countries located on that island - which are East Timor and West Timor - then it is derived from a Malay word meaning "east."\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timor

Jive turkey was a derogatory slang word in African American Vernacular English. It usually indicates someone who, despite his pretense, is a fool or, more often, a swindler.\n\nThe insult became widely known among white Americans in the 1970s, particularly via television comedies (e.g., The Jeffersons). The term has been used by later television characters (e.g., Homer Simpson) in order to demonstrate that they are out of touch with modern youth trends, culture, and language.\n\nJive turkey, however, was already falling into disuse when it was spoken by supposedly "hip" characters in the 1970s, such as George Jefferson. This misuse is generally attributed to the fact that the dialogue of so many black characters was written by whites.

Some are on display in Kremlin but most are in Ermitazh museum in St. Petersburg.  btw czar is the more correct one since it does correspond to Caesar.  but neither tzar or czar a totally correct because they try to imitate a sound that English language lacks.

Surri/Surrey is not a word in Hebrew.\nThat's a mistake the Cruises have made wrongly thinking it means princes in Hebrew.\n\nIt does means Mouse in French though...

I have a Lithuanian friend wih a surname like that, but I think it's Pikita. Lithuania and Russia were closely linked for a long time, so it's probably related somehow.

O.E. seolfor "silver," from P.Gmc. *silubra- (cf. O.S. silvbar, O.N. silfr, M.Du. silver, Du. zilver, O.H.G. sillabar, Ger. silber, Goth. silubr), from a common Germanic/Balto-Slavic term (cf. O.C.S. sirebo, Rus. serebo, Lith. sidabras "silver"), possibly from a language of Asia Minor. Perhaps from Akkad. sarpu "silver," lit. "refined silver," related to sarapu "to refine, smelt." Chemical abbreviation Ag is from L. argentum "silver," from the PIE root (see argent). The verb, "to cover or plate with silver" is recorded from 1440. Silverware is from 1860. \n\nHope this helps.

Hello dear. That's the adequate answer of your question.\n "Svidanka" is derived from the russian word "svidanie" (свидание),meaning "date", "appointment","meeting".\n"Svidanka"is just more sweeter and used more familiar than "svidanie"(свидание).\nTake care..\nEnjoy life!
