Denoting a general time period (i.e. Sunday, Monday, Tuesday) centered around a specific point in time (i.e. Monday). The surrounding time is thus linked to the specific point and is considered in the same "bracket" of time. Similar to the word "thereabouts" as it denotes a general location of a place in space, thenabouts is used to estimate or give a general location of a place in time and can be used to denote a specific time of day or a group of days, generally one on either side of the specified day.
Example:
(Hour)
Franz: When are you getting back to Santa Barbara?
Esmerelda: Well I'm probably going to take the trip slowly, so I'd imagine seven o'clock or thenabouts.
(Day)
Franz: When are you getting back to Santa Barbara?
Esmerelda: Saturday, so I'll see you Sunday or thenabouts.

Get the thenabouts mug.A real estate leasing technique whereby the landlord and tenant cooperate to sublet a portion of the property or unit, and split the rent revenue (and responsibilities) of the sublease. Unlike traditional subletting, the tenant remains in the unit/property along with the subtenant. Unlike just getting a roommate, there is a hierarchy between the tenant and subtenant. The tenant assumes some (but not all) of the landlord's responsibilities, effectively becoming more than just a tenant. He is an Augmented Tenant. Hence the term Augmented Tenancy.
How could a Stacey, a single mom with three kids, afford to rent such a large house? She signed an Augmented Tenancy lease with her landlord, which basically reduced her rent in half. Now THAT's real affordable housing!

Get the tenang gangster mug.1. Soul. As defined by Scientology. Derived from the greek letter theta for thought or life or the spirit.
2. Thetans are needed to animate a flesh body.
3. According to Scientology you are full of "body thetans" - degraded thetans who were once people but are now clustered together along with you and inhabit your body along with you. You are the leader of these thetans.
75 million years ago there was supposedly a ruler of this part of the galaxy named Xenu. To cure overpopulation on all the planets he controlled he summoned the people with psychiatric conditions in for an income tax audit. There they were instead paralyzed by injection of an alcohol and glycol mixture into their lungs. They were packed up in refridgerated units and loaded onto space-craft and taken to Earth (called Teegeeack then) and packed around the bases of a few volcanos.
Then their bodies were all destroyed by nuclear explosions. After this the thetans who were flying around in the winds were caught in electronic beams and frozen together in blocks. Then they were taken to huge 3-D cinemas and shown forms of what life should be like on Earth. After that they supposedly clustered together with a lead thetan in charge and they ended up inhabiting bodies in these clusters. Hence although we are a single thetan we supposedly have about 2,500 other lesser "body thetans" attached to our own thetan self.
The dysharmonious relationship between you and your thetans is what causes all sickness and disease in the world.
If you join Scientology, and pay thousands of dollars, you can go through the process of freeing yourself from these body thetans at huge monetary expense.
