holly-lily
Part of speech: adj
Morphological type: compound
Topics: Christianity
Etymology: From holly + lily, after the plants associated with the two holidays.
Compound parts: holly
lily
Inflected forms:
form: holly lily
pos: adj
tags: alternative
Senses:
gloss: Attending church during Christmas and Easter, and almost never for any other time of the year.
pos: adj
tags: not-comparable
examples: People who go to church only on Christmas and Easter sometimes are called "C and E" or "holly-lily" Christians, or even "Easter bunnies."
In church circles, when pastors and staff and church members plan for the Holly-Lily influx (printing extra bulletins, for example, or preparing the overflow room off of the sanctuary), the feeling is usually less than affectionate. To congregants who support the church Sunday after Sunday, Holly-Lily folks can be easily stereotyped as slackers who want a good church without the hassle of participation. To pastors who are exhausted from extra holiday sermons and services, not to mention the stress of preaching for folks who hear only two sermons a year, it can be tempting to see the Holly-Lily crowd's financial gifts as the only blessing of their attendance.
I've always heard of them as the holly-lily crowd.
Ooh I’ve never heard Christers before! We call them Holly-Lily Christians where I’m from
They don't like the p word ["pagans"]. As a Christian, we refer to them as the holly lily crowd. They only show up on Christmas and Easter.

Morphological type: derivation
Etymology: From pan- + primate.
Base: primate
Affixes: pan-
Inflected forms:
Senses:
gloss: Applying to all primates.
pos: adj
tags: not-comparable
examples: If these findings are confirmed in primates other than vervets, it is conceivable that the voice contributes to the solution of some pan-primate problems, offering clues to the vocal bias in human languages.
Given the clear homologies with display behaviors in other primates, and the ubiquity of the relevant adaptive problem across social animals, it is likely that proto-pride and proto-shame are pan-primate; indeed, the core features of these emotions and related appraisals and attitudes may be shared by all mammals, and possibly by most vertebrates.
From a conceptual point of view, it would be desirable to have a pan-primate clock for measuring aging from conception to old age since it would satisfy the intuitive requirement that a molecular biomarker of aging should apply to all tissues from all primate species across the entire life course.

examples: The Centaure, the horn'd goatfiſh Capricorne,
The ſnake-heard [sic] Gorgon, and fierce Sagittar.
From this figuring Camões, in Os Lusiadas of 1572, called it the Semi-Capran Fish, as it is now with us the Goat-Fish and the Sea Goat.
In the analogous case of the goatfish, represented in Dendera and on the boundary stones by quite similar pictures (figs. 6 and 7), we know that it was transferred to the sky before 700 B.C., since the constellation suh̬ur-maš is mentioned in ᵐᵘˡAPIN.
Similarly, the ibex with the round symbol in its horns, though for several thousand years past removed from its original place among the stars and reduced later to the little constellation of the Goat-Fish (Šuh̬ur-máš, Capricorn), subsists as an artistic motif throughout the millennia.
"Ea", the beneficent god of earth and life, who dwelt in the abyssal waters, was shown with two streams running from his hands or shoulders; he became Aquarius, and his symbols also formed the constellations of Capricornus (Ea's goat-fish, first seen on the seal of Ur just before 2000 BC), the Field (our Square of Pegasus), Piscis Austrinus, and perhaps Pisces [...] and Aries (Ea's ram's-head staff).

examples: One reason the cosmos is filled with so much interesting stuff is a set of processes called self-organization, which allow circumscribed zones of order to emerge.⁵ When energy is poured into a system, and the system dissipates that energy in its slide toward entropy, it can become poised in an orderly, indeed beautiful, configuration—a sphere, spiral, starburst, whirlpool, ripple, crystal, or fractal. The fact that we find these configurations beautiful, incidentally, suggests that beauty may not just be in the eye of the beholder. The brain’s aesthetic response may be a receptiveness to the counter-entropic patterns that can spring forth from nature.
