zeral
Pronunciation: /ˈzi .rəl/
Definition:
1. The ordinal number symbol: 0.
2. The position of an item in a sequence before the first (primal) element, used in logical, computational, or systematic contexts where indexing starts from null.
3. The state of being prior to commencement; the foundational reference point from which counting commences.
4. Representing the default or initial state in any ordered list, array, or procedural level.
Significance:
• It defines the concept of "zeroth" in a regular, systematic ordinal form.
• It emphasizes clear numeric indexing, important in programming, mathematics, and data organization.
• It identifies the pre-first position without irregular morphological constructions.
• It avoids incomprehensible and ambiguous pronunciations common in Germanic ordinal forms.
• It simplifies technical communication, education, and instruction involving sequences.
• It improves precision in descriptions of order, priority, and initialization.
• It replaces Scandinavian-Germanic, non-American, foreign, and Anglo-Saxon terms, similar to replacing "zeroth" with a consistent Latinized pattern.
Ordinal number:
zeral (0-al)
onal (primal) (1-al)

zergling rush
A tactic used in Blizzard's 1998 release of "StarCraft." The Zerg were one of 3 playable races, bug-like creatures that created units through evolution, morhping, and hatching. The Zergling was the basic infantry unit, capable of only melee attacks. However, in a multiplayer situation, a single larva (the basic unit from which all Zerg units morph) will morph into two Zerglings, creating a cheaply made swarm at a rapid pace. Used for quick ends to multiplayer games and is often referred to in both negative and postive lights.
