Word Recognition V (bijection) — hint first
Hint before the answers: Match each term to its changing popularity in English-language books. The format: Each graph has its own scale, so judge the shape - not the height.
Some words have more than one meaning. The graphs count all uses of each term, so consider how its meaning may have changed over time.
The graphs end in 2022.
Try the category nudge above before scrolling — the full table follows.
- Napoleon: The first peak falls just after Waterloo in 1815. The name belongs to two French emperors: his nephew ruled as Napoleon III from 1852 to 1870, during the later nineteenth-century wave.
- Dynamite: Alfred Nobel patented the explosive in 1867, just before the curve takes off. It made blasting for mines, tunnels and railways much more practical.
- Napoleon Dynamite: The 2004 comedy premiered at Sundance and became a cult hit. The book-frequency curve peaks in 2007, a few years after its release.
- Electric Vehicles: Electric transport had an early heyday around 1900, including cars and trams. Petrol cars then gained the advantage in price and range. The 1970s oil crises renewed interest, decades before the modern boom.
- Submarine: The two wartime peaks fall in 1917 and 1944. German U-boats threatened the ships supplying Britain in both world wars; merchant ships sailed in escorted convoys for protection.
- Football: This combines several sports, including soccer and American football. The long rise spans the growth of their modern codes: England's Football Association was founded in 1863, and the NFL followed in 1920.
- Blackberry: The fruit was a subject of nineteenth-century horticultural writing, including guides to new varieties. The modern crest in 2009 coincides with the mobile-device brand, introduced in 1999.
- Unemployed: The 1933 peak coincides with the depths of the Great Depression, when roughly a quarter of the US workforce was out of work.
- Victoria: The long rise spans Queen Victoria's reign, from 1837 to 1901. The peak comes in 1902, the year after her death.
- Phrenology: The 1838 peak falls during the craze for reading personality from the shape of the skull. The medical profession eventually dismissed the practice as quackery.
The Monster Enters (bijection) — hint first
Hint before the answers: Match each book or story to an unsettling encounter. The format: The authors' own words, with some cuts marked by ...
Try the category nudge above before scrolling — the full table follows.
| Book or story | Passage |
|---|---|
| Frankenstein | I had selected his features as beautiful. Beautiful! Great God! His yellow skin scarcely covered the work of muscles and arteries beneath... |
| Dracula | I saw the whole man slowly emerge from the window and begin to crawl down the castle wall ... face down with his cloak spreading out around him like great wings. |
| The Invisible Man | He took off his hat, and with a violent gesture tore at his whiskers and bandages. ... They were prepared for scars, disfigurements, tangible horrors, but nothing! |
| The Hound of the Baskervilles | Fire burst from its open mouth, its eyes glowed with a smouldering glare, its muzzle and hackles and dewlap were outlined in flickering flame. |
| The War of the Worlds | A monstrous tripod, higher than many houses ... a walking engine of glittering metal, striding now across the heather; articulate ropes of steel dangling from it... |
| Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde | I compounded the elements, watched them boil and smoke together in the glass ... drank off the potion. ... I knew myself, at the first breath of this new life, to be more wicked, tenfold more wicked... |
| The Island of Doctor Moreau | Under his stringy black locks I saw his ear ... The man had pointed ears, covered with a fine brown fur! "Your breakfast, sair," he said. |
| A Christmas Carol | The chain he drew was clasped about his middle. ... it was made ... of cash-boxes, keys, padlocks, ledgers, deeds, and heavy purses wrought in steel. |
| The Legend of Sleepy Hollow | The head, which should have rested on his shoulders, was carried before him on the pommel of his saddle! |
| The Canterville Ghost | His eyes were as red burning coals ... from his wrists and ankles hung heavy manacles and rusty gyves. ... "I really must insist on your oiling those chains..." |

Try the category nudge above before scrolling — the full table follows.
- Amsterdam: Those are St. Andrew's crosses. Their resemblance to the modern shorthand for X-rated entertainment is a coincidence.
- Bavaria: The blue-and-white diamonds came to the ruling Wittelsbach family from the Counts of Bogen. They also appear at the centre of the Bayern Munich badge. The BMW logo uses the same Bavarian colours.
- Catalonia: The four red bars appear on a seal of the Count of Barcelona from 1150. The version with a star is a separate flag associated with the independence movement.
- Chicago: The stars mark Fort Dearborn, the Great Fire and two world's fairs. The flag originally had only two stars.
- Hawaii: The eight stripes represent the eight main islands. The Union Jack survives from the flag of the Hawaiian Kingdom.
- New Mexico: The sun symbol comes from Zia Pueblo. Its four groups of rays reflect the importance of four: directions, seasons, parts of the day and stages of life. In a 2001 survey, vexillologists (flag scholars) ranked it the best of 72 state, provincial and territorial flags from the U.S. and Canada.
- Nunavut: The inuksuk is a stone landmark used for guidance and to mark significant places. The blue star is the North Star.
- Quebec: The Fleurdelisé was inspired by an old French military banner. The flowers are fleurs-de-lis, the traditional emblem of French royalty.
- Sicily: The three legs surround a Gorgon's head, with ears of wheat between them. The three-legged figure is called a triskelion.
- Texas: The Lone Star Flag was adopted by the independent republic in 1839, before it became a US state.
- Toronto: The white shape is the 1965 City Hall building, with its two curved towers. It also forms a T.
- Western Australia: The black swan has represented the colony and state since the nineteenth century. The colony was originally known as the Swan River Colony.
