Russian battlecry meaning "For the motherland!" Used primarily by the Red Army during World War Two. Paired with Za Stalina! (For Stalin!) and Ura! (Hurrah)
Franz:Adolf why don't ve invade the Russians?
Dimitri: Za Rodinu! Za Stalina! Ura!!
Adolf:Zat is why.
A Rodina is a nice person. Beautiful, both on the inside and the outside. She can also be very wrong about how she is, she usually thinks she's worse than she is, which is wrong. Tends to think less of herself. She doesn't care much about anything but when she starts to care about someone (Which is rare) she cares and loves very deeply. She will care about you like you've never been cared about before. If you can make a Rodina care about/love you then you're one of the luckiest people ever. If you have a Rodina then you have EVERYTHING in thw world.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
