"Hella" originated in Northern California. To be specific, the Bay Area.  It has been used there for at least 10 years.  It is derived from the slang "helluva" as in "helluva good time" etc. but its usage is very flexible. It is generally applied to add emphasis, i.e. "I was hella drunk" or "he's hella stupid."\n\nI hope that answers your question!

Porn is a sin against God (Lusting after a woman is just the same as having sex with her hence the sin of adultery or fornication)  and it also provokes un realistic expectations in the people watching it.  Example if their wife is not like the porn queen then a man is not satisfied with her.  It is also a form of prostitucion, in that women are selling pictures of themselves.  It is degrading to the women in that it isn't important who or what they are, the person just wants to see them naked.  People who do this eventually get to the point that the whole focus of their lives is sex and they are never satisfied with what they have.  It also carries with it the danger of demonic spirits that will ruin your life.  And at the end of your life here on earth you can look forward to eternity without God.  If we were governed by the Bible in our sex lives then AIDS would just disappear on its own.  God means for us to be happy and his rules lead to health and happiness in our lives.

<>The word you are looking for is "fornication."  It means to perform the sexual act of procreation.  The origin of the "f---" word is rife with myth and lore.  One version is that it comes from an acronym of "fornication under carnal knowledge," a description of a crime of adultery.

Most words of the type you have mentioned ARE rooted in either Greek (telephone, television, etc) or Latin 9bicycle0 though many others have come from other cultures (jodhpurs, ketchup), and some are just made up (Nylon comes from abbreviating New York & London), whilst a special few are named after the inventor (biro).

My mom wouldn't let me watch stuff like that.\n\nTo be honest I'm not even sure what the term "Porn" means but my guess would be it's somekind of film genre.

Many of the entomology's will say it is from late french writing about prostitutes.  But I don;t buy it.\n\nSeveral years ago I was reading an early (1st century) roman text. It had the a word similar to pornia or pornios or in it. ( I can't remember and it wasn't important to what I was doing) I tried to find the word in dictionaries but it wasn't there. It was obvious from the context the word had something to do with pictures. The current Latin dictionaries do not have any words for picture or anything like it. If you go back to roman ruins you can see that they had the most extensive art it the history of the world to that point, and no word for "picture" ? (" pictura" latin for paint is the root of our word picture but Romans had pictures as well and where is that word?) \n\n I stick with a Latin root I am willing to bet no one has done the necessary footwork to document it. Pictures of sex have been around for a couple of thousand years and the Romans didn't miss a beat when it came to anything of perversion or commerce. \n\nThe late 19th century explanation is just plain wrong. The word is much older than that.

Watching porn is definitely a sin because of the purpose it brings for a person who wishes to see it.. The definition in the dictionary for pornography is any kind of image that is used to arouse sexual thoughts or actions. What goes through your eyes goes into your mind and then it corrupts your heart and causes your heart to become hardened towards it. Basically you won't feel convicted about it anymore and you will not realize that it is sin. Don't put yourself in any kind of situation like that because no one is strong on his/her own. Remember the purpose and you will understand why it's there.

The word "d*ldo" is possibly a corruption of Italian "diletto" (for "delight"). [1]\n\nThe word may derive from the words "Dil Doul", literally meaning an erect penis. The phrase is used in an old song named "The Maids Complaint for want of a Dil Doul". The song was among many in the Library of Samuel Pepys.

Hey Uncle, what's up!\n\nMy answer would be: \npornos are falsely described as "marital learning tools" by the creators of them. All pornos are depictions of sex in a lewd way. Sex is natural but pornos are too graphic to actually "teach" students.

No one really invented the word it evolved over time to come to mean what it does today\n\nc.1340, "discharge of semen other than during sex," later, "desecration, defilement" (1382), from L.L. pollutionem (nom. pollutio) "defilement," from L. polluere "to soil, defile, contaminate," from por- "before" + -luere "smear," related to lutum "mud," and to lues "filth" (cf. Gk. lyma "filth, dirt, disgrace," lymax "rubbish, refuse," O.Ir. loth "mud, dirt," Lith. lutynas "pool, puddle"). Sense of "contamination of the environment" first recorded c.1860, but not common until c.1955. Pollute (v.) is attested from c.1380 in sense "defile," from L. pollutus, pp. of polluere. Meaning "contaminate the environment" first recorded 1954. Pollutant is from 1892.

Tricked?  HAHAHA, nice one.  Sorry, no one is ever tricked into porn.  They may be forced into it, or choose to do it while drunk (like girls gone wild), but no one is actually tricked into it.

It is a slang term for a female sexual organ.  It's origins are in India.  (I don't know for sure, but it sounds like it might be related to "poon-tang")
