Raissa

"Raissa" (spelled in English with 2 's' to avoid the misreading of 'Raiza') is a common Russian female name with diminutive "Raya." The latter means 'paradisiac' in Russian (or 'from the paradise') and 'princess' or 'mistress' in Arabic, which is why the saying "She is such a raissa" also means "She is such a royalty" (whether 'spoiled brat' or 'lofty' and 'cute'). Historically speaking, the name originates from the Ancient Greek 'Herais' Ηραις, a derivative from the name of the Greek goddess Hera, from which we have words like Hero, Heroic, and even Heraldry (Nobility). That's the main root and meaning of the name RAISSA = Heroic and Noble, with the connotation of Divine (Paradisiacal).

resistonce

The word "resistonce" is not meant to be confused with its counterpart "resistance", meaning "a group of persons who oppose a force". The word resistonce means "a group of no more than two persons who,although severly outnumbered, are extremely stubborn to give up their resisting, despite how stupid it may be". This word is pronounced normally with a faulty French accent, and has emphasis on the ending "once", such as the "resistooonnnnnnnnnccccceeeeee!!"
The part "once" is NEVER to be said like the word "once", such as "I once got my head stuck in the toilet." NEVER.
