Ken Simpson Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 OT I know, but what *is* a New York Minute? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Brylov Christensen Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I'm not familiar with the work of Moulton, but A Patristic Greek Lexicon by Lampe would make an excellent addition to the Accordance Library. +1 With kind regards Peter Christensen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 @Ken, http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/new%20york%20minute. No derivation really and pretty recent coinage it would seem. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/new+york+minutewith a suggestion of derivation. Pretty much what you'd expect I guess. +1 for the books above Tx D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Pyles Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Lampe would be great! Probably quite expensive, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helen Brown Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 These have been requested repeatedly over the years, and I guess that there are good reasons why we have not been able to do them. I suspect these fall into the "black hole" where the publishers own the rights to the work but do not have an etext. That means we have to both license the work and etext it, and these lexicons are not easy to etext. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Hartley Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 The original post was mine (put up by Julie Palmer—thanks Julie). The "New York minute" comes via Don Henley of the Eagles. I'm showing my age. The M-M lexicon is a lexicon on the papyri and it has an index of NT texts put together by Dan Wallace and his Greek students when he was at Grace (from what I can remember; that lexicon is in my office). Besides these two lexicons, there is a third that can be added to the list relating to the LXX. Muraoka, T. A Greek-English Lexicon of the Septuagint. Rev. ed. Louvain; Walpole, MA: Peeters, 2010. I realize we have to deal with these "black holes" (as Dr. Brown so eloquently states) but it sure would be sweet to be able to do the type of searches that one regularly performs on Accordance with the likes of BDAG, L&N, Spicq, and L&S (just to mention some of the Greek sources) instead of wading through the actual hard copies. Publishers would get much wider usage of these sources in particular on an Accordance type of format not to mention scholars who wish to redeem the time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Peeters have not been willing to license Muraoka until now. We are talking to them, that's all I can say. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abram K-J Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Peeters have not been willing to license Muraoka until now. We are talking to them, that's all I can say. Helen: this is fantastic news. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michel Gilbert Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Hi Dan, I heard it growing up too. First in print in 1954, "It's no bigger than a New York minute and that's only thirty seconds.”—Galveston News (Texas), August 15, 1954, page 22. If you search for where I got this, be aware of some bad language on that site. Regards, Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Researcher Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 I also would be interested in Moulton & Milligan and Lampe's A Patristic Lexicon. I have a PDF of Moulton & Milligan which I downloaded from https://ia800201.us.archive.org/24/items/vocabularyofgree00mouluoft/vocabularyofgree00mouluoft.pdf. It is fine for reading but forget copying and pasting from it. It is easier to retype rather than to clean up a copy. Book page 503 (pdf page 539) is cut off and there may be more errors. However, considering that my print copy was left behind with my library when I moved overseas it is the best I have access to. Lampe is also available at https://archive.org. Logos offers Moulton & Milligan but I would rather have it in Accordance. Blessings, Harry :-{) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody seemed to understand it then, so it wasn't a recent phenomenon. http://www.funtrivia.com/askft/Question130307.html Here's Toby Keith using it at the 38 second mark of his debut single in 1993. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIq1LvzSLsk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alistair Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 I'd like to invent a minute which is 73 seconds long, because I get so much more out of life/time/space/energy/matter/etc than everyone else. Except that I don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
