横 may indeed be "Yoko" in Japanese, but it is pronounced "heng"
in Chinese and has the same meanings as in Japanese, but most commonly I hear
it used to mean a horizontal line component of a Chinese character. The right side of the character is "huang" which gives the sound (~ heng)
and the left side is a tree which alludes to some meaning of a straight object
like a log.  And not to quibble  about it(oh, no!) but I think that Yoko Ono in Chinese (kanji) characters is 小野 洋子 [xiao ye yang zi (Ono Yoko)] which means "little wild ocean child". * Some of your Yokes are hard to bear.

In trying to come up with a witty response to Wayne's clever gibe (= quib), I found the following (and it was interesting enough that I abandoned the attempt): • Yoko (横) in Japanese is a fairly generic term meaning "side"; it also has some less common, negative meanings = "wrong", "invalid", "illogical", and "disorder". ~ which means that the Greek for the Japanese "yoko (横)" would be αἵρεσις (= "choice" or "thing chosen") from which we get the English 'heresy,' which means a choice of one side, with overtones of "wrong", "invalid", "illogical", and "disorder."

>>There's more. I find from the indispensable urbandictionary.com that "Quib is a 70's LA term for coughing while trying to hold in a pot hit either from a joint, pipe, or bong. Of course, it is a negative thing and the goal is not to quit."  Thus "quib ono" is an asseveration, undoubtedly often pronounced only with difficulty, of one's unwillingness to exhale...

>>>"qui bono" is obviously a slight mispunctuation of "quib ono." Given quib = quip (as it does), a proper translation would be, "It's not a joke!" - while of course the lead singer of U2 is a joke... On Jul 8, 2014, at 9:36 PM, David Gehrig <david-cu at nukulele.org> wrote:
