The jury in the trial of Sydney swimming coach Kyle Daniels has been discharged after failing to reach a verdict on child sexual abuse charges. Follow our live coverage for the latest news on the coronavirus pandemic. Robin van Persie scored twice as Manchester United continued its resurgence, climbing to third in the Premier League with a win over Southampton.
The Dutchman scored in each half as United, who were distinctly second best for much of the game, secured a fifth successive Premier League victory. Graziano Pelle ended a personal goal drought dating back to October with his equaliser, but Southampton has now lost three successive Premier League games and are without a league victory since a victory against struggling Leicester City on November 8.
United has 28 points, five behind rivals City in second and eight fewer than leaders Chelsea, while Southampton has dropped to fifth on 26 points, one point behind fourth-placed West Ham United. The pair fell out during their time at Ajax Amsterdam in as a result of their differing characters and have endured a frosty relationship since.

After a patient start on the south coast, Southampton gifted the visitors the lead when captain Jose Fonte's weak back pass was seized upon by van Persie who rounded goalkeeper Fraser Forster before rolling the ball home in the 12th minute. Van Gaal's side had won their previous four Premier League games before the visit to St Mary's and their array of attacking players were slick and eye-catching in possession. But, not for the first time this season, their shaky defence, reverted to a back three, looked vulnerable in the face of Southampton's creative passing and movement.

After the hosts had created a number of good chances Pelle fired them level after 31 minutes. United's towering Belgian midfielder Marouane Fellaini surrendered possession in midfield and, after the ball ricocheted around in the box, the Italian pounced with a close-range finish. Fascinatingly the establishment and popularity of the expression was perhaps also supported if not actually originally underpinned by the intriguing 13th century custom at Dunmow in Essex, apparently according to Brewer founded by a noblewoman called Juga in and restarted in by Robert de Fitzwalter, whereby any man from anywhere in England who, kneeling on two stones at the church door, could swear that for the past year he had not argued with his wife nor wished to be parted from her, would be awarded a 'gammon of bacon'.
Seemingly this gave rise to the English expression, which according to Brewer was still in use at the end of the s 'He may fetch a flitch of bacon from Dunmow' a flitch is a 'side' of bacon; a very large slab , which referred to a man who was amiable and good-tempered to his wife.
This meaning is very close to the modern sense of 'bringing home the bacon': providing a living wage and thus supporting the family. Brewer says one origin is the metaphor of keeping the household's winter store of bacon protected from huge numbers of stray scavenging dogs. In that sense the meaning was to save or prevent a loss.
The establishment of the expression however relies on wider identification with the human form: Bacon and pig-related terms were metaphors for 'people' in several old expressions of from 11th to 19th century, largely due to the fact that In the mid-to-late middle ages, bacon was for common country people the only meat affordably available, which caused it and associated terms hog, pig, swine to be used to describe ordinary country folk by certain writers and members of the aristocracy. Norman lords called Saxon people 'hogs'. A 'chaw-bacon' was a derogatory term for a farm labourer or country bumpkin chaw meant chew, so a 'chaw-bacon' was the old equivalent of the modern insult 'carrot-cruncher'.
See also 'bring home the bacon'. It's simply a shortening of 'The bad thing that happened was my fault, sorry'. The word bad in this case has evolved to mean 'mistake which caused a problem'. It's another example of the tendency for language to become abbreviated for more efficient and stylised communications. In this case the abbreviation is also a sort of teenage code, which of course young people everywhere use because they generally do not wish to adopt lifestyle and behaviour advocated by parents, teachers, authority, etc.
For new meanings of words to evolve there needs to be a user-base of people that understands the new meanings. Initially the 'my bad' expression was confined to a discrete grouping, ie. Now it seems the understanding and usage of the 'my bad' expression has grown, along with the students, and entered the mainstream corporate world, no doubt because US middle management and boardrooms now have a high presence of people who were teenagers at college or university 20 years ago.

I am also informed thanks K Korkodilos that the 'my bad' expression was used in the TV series 'Buffy The Vampire Slayer', and that this seems to have increased its popular mainstream usage during the s, moreover people using the expression admitted to watching the show when asked about the possible connection.
Additionally thanks M Woolley apparently the 'my bad' expression is used by the Fred character in the new Scooby Doo TV series, which is leading to the adoption of the phrase among the under-5's in London, and logically, presumbly, older children all over England too. There is it seems no stopping this one.. Also, thanks J Davis " There's a common Mexican phrase, 'Mi malo', which means, literally, 'My bad', and it may be where this comes from, since it's a common phrase here in Southern California, and was before Buffy was ever on the air..
Furthemore, thanks J Susky, Sep " I'm fairly sure I first heard it in the summer, outdoors, in Anchorage, Alaska - which would put it pre-Sept If you know more please tell me. A still earlier meaning of the word was more precisely 'a jumbled mixture of words', and before that from Scandinavia 'a mixture'. Skeat's dictionary provides the most useful clues as to origins: Scandinavian meanings were for 'poor stuff' or a 'poor weak drink', which was obviously a mixture of sorts.
In Danish 'balder' was noise or clatter, and the word danske was slap or flap, which led to an older alternative meaning of a 'confused noise', or any mixture.

Certain dictionaries suggest an initial origin of a frothy drink from the English 16thC, but this usage was derived from the earlier 'poor drink' and 'mixture' meanings and therefore was not the root, just a stage in the expression's development. Balti is generally now regarded as being the anglicised name of the pan in which the balti dish is cooked, a pan which is conventionally known as the 'karai' in traditional Urdu language.
The mythological explanation is that the balti pan and dish are somehow connected with the supposed 'Baltistan' region of Pakistan, or a reference to that region by imaginative England-based curry house folk, who seem first to have come up with the balti menu option during the s. Indeed Hobson Jobson, the excellent Anglo-Indian dictionary, 2nd edition , lists the word 'balty', with the clear single meaning: 'a bucket'. In larger families or when guests visit, the need for larger pots arose. Balti dishes originate from Pakistan, customarily cooked in a wok style pan outside hotels and people's homes.
The process is based on boiling the meat of chicken or goat on low heat with garlic and chilli powder in some cases until it is tender and the water reduced to a sauce. Then fresh tomatoes, green chillies, ginger and spices are added, and the meat is fried until a sauce is produced. Renowned as an extra spicy dish, the Balti is revered by young and old. See also the derivation of the racial term 'Gringo', which has similar origins.

Another school of thought and possible contributory origin is that apparently in Latin there was such a word as 'barba' meaning beard. A Roman would visit the tonsor to have his beard shaved, and the non Romans, who frequently wore beards barbas , were thereby labelled barbarians. Ack AA for the beard theory. I am additionally informed thanks S Walker that perhaps the earliest derivation of babble meaning unintelligible speech is from the ancient Hebrew word for the city of Babel meaning Babylon , which is referred to in the Bible, Genesis - "Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth, and thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
Many people seem now to infer a meaning of the breath being metaphorically 'baited' like a trap or a hook, waiting to catch something instead of the original non-metaphorical original meaning, which simply described the breath being cut short, or stopped as with a sharp intake of breath.

The expression appears in Shakespeare's The Merchant Of Venice as bated , which dates its origin as 16th century or earlier. The word bate is a shortened form of abate, both carrying the same meaning to hold back, reduce, stop, etc , and first appeared in the s, prior to which the past tense forms were baten and abaten. Ack J Vaughan. And if you like more detail ack K Dahm : when soldiers marched to or from a battle or between encampments in a column, there was a van, a main body, and a rear.
On the battlefield the forces would open up to a broad front, with scouts forward to locate the other side, the main lines, and one or several reserves to the rear. The cavalry, or mobile force, would be separate and often on the outer edges of the formation. Each side would line up in a similar fashion, allowing for terrain and personal preference between the width of the line and the depth.
When the opposing lines clashed, there would be a zone between them where fighting took place. Since there would be differences in ability and local strength, the lines would often bend and separate. The front lines formed by each force could also be called battle lines.

The soldiers behind the front lines wesre expected to step up into the place of the ones ahead when they fell, and to push forward otherwise, such that 15th centruy and earlier battles often became shoving matches, with the front lines trying to wield weapons in a crush of men. The classic British Army of the Colonial and Napoleanic eras used a line that was three men deep, with the ranks firing and reloading in sequence.
Since it took between 40 and 60 seconds to reload, that meant a volley fired every seconds, which proved devestating to the opposing line. This formation and similar ones were used until the American Civil War, and later by other European powers. What ended the practice was the invention of magazine-fed weapons and especially machine guns, which meant that an opposing line could be rapidly killed.
After the Great War, dispersion became the main means of fighing, with much looser units linking side to side to protect each others flanks, which became the WWII paradigm. There are various suggestions for the origins of beak meaning judge or magistrate, which has been recorded as a slang expression since the midth century, but is reasonably reliably said to have been in use in the 16th century in slightly different form, explained below. Francis Grose's Vulgar Tongue dictionary of Buckish Slang and Pickpocket Eloquence includes the entry: Beak - a justice of the peace or magistrate.
In the 19th century the term beak also referred to a sherif's officer English or a policeman, and later beak was adopted as slang also by schoolchildren for a schoolmaster. I am informed on this point thanks K Madley that the word beak is used for a schoolmaster in a public school in Three School Chums by John Finnemore, which was published in In the First World War being up before the beak meant appearing before an elderly officer.
Brewer's slang dictionary suggests beak derives from an Anglo-Saxon word beag, which was " Brewer also cites an alternative: " In considering this idea, it is possible of course that this association was particularly natural given the strange tendency of men's noses to grow with age, so that old judges and other elderly male figures of authority would commonly have big noses. Other theories include suggestions of derivation from a Celtic word meaning judgement, which seems not to have been substantiated by any reputable source, although interestingly and perhaps confusingly the French for beak, bec, is from Gaulish beccus, which might logically be connected with Celtic language, and possibly the Celtic wordstem bacc-, which means hook.
Partridge says that the earlier form was beck, from the th centuries, meaning a constable, which developed into beak meaning judge by about , although Grose's entry would date this development perhaps years prior. And finally to confuse matters more, Cassells Jonathan Green slang dictionary throws in the obscure nevertheless favoured by Cassells connection with harman-beck, also harman, which were slang terms for constable combining harman meaning hard-man it is suggested, with beck or bec , from the mid 16th century. As with several other slang origins, the story is not of a single clear root, more like two or three contributory meanings which combine and support the end result.
Earlier versions of the expression with the same meaning were: 'You got out of bed the wrong way', and 'You got out of bed with the left leg foremost' which perhaps explains why today's version, which trips off the tongue rather more easily, developed. According to Chambers, Bedlam was first recorded as an alternative name for the hospital in , and as a word meaning chaos or noisy confusion in , evolving naturally from slightly earlier use in referring to a madhouse or lunatic asylum.
Bedlam is an example of a contraction in language.

Thanks S Taylor for help clarifying this. Bees have long been a metaphorical symbol because they are icons everyone can recognise, just as we have many sayings including similarly appealing icons like cats and dogs. Earlier references to the size of a 'bee's knee' - meaning something very small for example 'as big as a bee's knee' - probably provided a the basis for adaptation into its modern form, which according to the OED happened in the USA, not in UK English. Neither 'the bees knees', nor 'big as a bees knee' appear in Brewer, which indicates that the expression grew or became popular after this time.
Based on Nigel Rees' well researched and reliable dating of for first recorded use, it is likely that earliest actual usage was perhaps a few years before this. It's certainly true that the origin of the word bereave derives from the words rob and robbed. It's true also that the words reaver and reiver in Middle English described a raider, and the latter specifically a Scottish cross-border cattle raider. However the word bereave derives says Chambers from the Old English word bereafian, which meant robbed or dispossessed in a more general sense. It's a very old word: Reafian meaning rob appears in Beowulf The 'be' prefix is Old English meaning in this context to make or to cause, hence bereafian.
The 'be' prefix and word reafian are cognate similar with the Old Frisian North Netherlands word birava, and also with the Old High German word biroubon. These and other cognates similar words from the same root can be traced back to very ancient Indo-European roots, all originating from a seminal meaning of rob. Incidentally Cassells says the meaning of bereave in association with death first appeared in English only in the s, so the robbed meaning persisted until relatively modern times given the very old origins of the word.
Thanks J R for raising the question. In fact the expression 'baer-saerk' with 'ae' pronounced as 'a' in the word 'anyhow' , means bear-shirt, which more likely stemmed from the belief that these fierce warriors could transform into animals, especially bears and wolves, or at least carry the spirit of the animal during extreme battle situations. Thanks Cornelia for this more precise derivation. This derivation is also supported by the Old Icelandic word 'Beserkr', meaning 'bear-shirt'.
I am additionally informed thanks F Tims that: " By their account, the 'bar-sark' was worn only by members of the Norse chieftan's personal bodyguard, they being the most ferocious, and thus the most feared, of the Vikings plundering eastern Scotland and the hapless Dane-mark.
