were beaten and marched to a POW camp by Japanese soldiers.

The Battle of Bataan, located in the Philippines, ended with US surrender to the Japanese. The march to the POW (prisoner of war) camp is referred to as the Battan Death March.

The Battan Death March was a 65 mile march from one end of the island to the other to reach the POW camp. The Japanese marched groups of soldiers and Filipino people while beating them, starving them, and killing anyone too weak to keep up. The exact number who died on the march is unknown but estimates put it into the thousands. Those that made it to the POW camp continued to experience poor treatment leading to the death of more at the camps.

Answer:

How did the term “seaboard” come to be a synonym for “seacoast”?

A: In Old English, the language spoken in Anglo-Saxon times, the term bord (the source of our modern word “board”) had two meanings: (1) a plank, shield, shelf, or table; and (2) an edge, rim, or side.

The second meaning dates back at least to the year 897, and it’s this sense that gives us the words “border” and “seaboard” (meaning seaside, seacoast, seashore).

This meaning of “board” as an edge or side also gave us the words “shipboard” (the side of a ship) and “overboard” (over the side of a ship), as well as “larboard” and “starboard.”

When the phrase “on board” first appeared in English in the early 16th century, it meant alongside a ship (or a shore), but the meaning widened by the late 17th century to include on a ship itself.

Other old nautical expressions reflecting this etymology included “board on board” and “board by board,” which described two ships coming alongside one another (side by side).

It’s often supposed that the “board” in “on board” refers to the deck of a ship, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, but the Middle English version of the expression, within schippe burdez (“within ship boards”), makes clear the word “board” actually refers to a border.

The OED says the two Anglo-Saxon meanings of bord (a plank and an edge) may have been the result of entirely different nouns from different sources, already blended by the time they arrived in Old English.

The very earliest Dahomey Amazons made their living through what practice?
mr Goodwill [35]

Based on historical evidence, the very earliest Dahomey Amazons made their living through "mistresses to the king."

  • This is evident in the fact they were originally called "ahosi" in the native language which means the King's wives.

  • History has it that King Ghezo had many wives that runs into hundreds, and that is where he started recruiting them around the 19th century.

  • Dahomey Amazons are female soldiers of Fon origin who fought in defense of Dahomey.

Hence, in this case, the correct answer is option B. "mistresses to the king."
