The key to understanding the word AMBASSADOR is the word in the middle, "bass."
"Bass" has two main meanings with separate pronunciations.
Our focus is NOT on the musical instrument "bass" (rhymes with "base")
but on the FISH bass (rhymes with "ass") which has to do with
"ambassador's" terminology, its origins in Europe.
Bass is delicious and was in high demand in
European countries like Portugal, Iceland, and Greece.
Angling was common.
Many men would go off to work on commercial fishing vessels,
with bass being the main target.
Unfortunately, the larger bass, like Hogzillas and Big Mommas,
exuded a strong smell, which daily caused fishermen to
suffer ailments such as headaches, migraines, nausea.
This had a negative effect on the daily catch.
Losing profits was unacceptable.
In an effort to counter the detrimental effects of the offending stench, the fishermen
figured out that cutting off the bass's noses would negate the offending smell.
They took turns working an hour at a time exclusively on cutting
off the bass's noses, or, "amputate" the fish's noses so they won't
smell anymore, and therefore no one will get sick anymore.
The first syllable of AMBASSADOR comes from, "AMputate."
Second syllable is BASS.
The ending of AMBASSADOR, "ador," is an
Estonian transliteration of "odor," an unpleasant "smell"
Hence the word AMBASSADOR is derived from AMputate BASS's ODOR.

I enjoy fishing for delicious bass during the Summer, but when I catch one I have to immediately ambassador it, otherwise I would soon so feel nauseous and want to throw up. 🤢

A person of the highest ranking in the social triangle. Looks down upon everyone who deserves to be looked down upon because they know that they themselves are the best.

Get the ambassador mug.ambipathy n (Latin, Greek ambi- (or amphi), both, on both sides + Greek pathos, feeling) - a mixture of sympathy and antipathy, of attraction and repulsion; a condition of being torn apart by conflicting feelings and aspirations.
"... At once I hate and love as well," - this line by Catullus, Roman poet of the first century BC, is one of the first literary expressions of ambipathy.
Dmitry Karamazov in Dostoevsky says that "a man is too broad" and is equally attracted by the two abysses--the upper and the lower ones, the ideal of Madonna and the ideal of Sodom. In this sense, Dmitry and perhaps Dostoevsky himself are the brightest manifestations of this common trait of ambipathy.
