yagi

Sloppy writing scratched out by using hash marks. Looks like the shape of a yagi antenna, a type of directional radio and TV antenna with dipoles running parallel to and in the plane of the conductor.

What's with this yagi all over the page? You'll have to do this report all over again. It's sloppy!

fagotto

A bassoon, in Italian, with variants in several other languages including German (Fagott) and Armenian (fakod in Western Armenian and fagot in Eastern Armenian). The name comes from the word "faggot", meaning a bundle of wooden sticks, which the instrument resembles. Has nothing to do with being gay.

Io suono il fagotto (I play the bassoon).

do the V

Same as do the T, except that the emphasis is on the movement used when you perform this rather than the "T" of the intersection.

To avoid the trucks and those long traffic lights on the cross streets, I do the V all the time.

me transmitte sursum, Caledoni!
