aeronmelon@lemmy.worldto Cars and things that go@sh.itjust.works•Day 68 of Posting a Richard Scarry vehicle: wheelbarrowEnglish4·10 hours agoBarrow originates from old English, it means to bear a load. The original barrows were implements to allow people to carry more stuff than normal and were designed to be carried by two people (imagine handles on both ends). A wheel was added later, thus wheelbarrow.
Barrel comes from French, and implies a fully-enclosed space for storing things, like wine.
They are similar things, but practically different and originating from different languages. Though, that’s never stopped modern English from mashing two disparate things together before. And there have likely been many instances where someone carried a barrel in a wheelbarrow. :)

aeronmelon@lemmy.worldto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•Someday.....English11·1 day agoThe only plausible movie script for the Voyager cast now would be Admiral Janeway getting a premonition of the Borg Queen (the one she killed) not being completely dead and amassing an armada of infected Borg to wipe out humanity. She would then have to comb the Alpha Quadrant for her old crew and one by one reassemble them on the new Voyager-A, a ship specifically designed to traverse the galaxy and fight the Borg. Defeating the old, now insane, Queen would require allying with the Free Borg led by Hugh (let’s say this takes place an few years before Picard) and Janeway herself making the ultimate sacrifice to finish the job and get everyone else back home.
