    Very few English Monarchs have actually been English. Our current lot are a strange admixture of Greek and German.

        It all seems to be Cake related. Phil the Bubble (Prince Phillip, Duke of Edinburgh) Was Born in Corfu, (Thus he is a Bubble, as in 'Bubble & Squeak', Greek) His Family name is Mountbatten which is the Anglecized version of Battenburg, which is a cake. ANd now you tell me he's a Danish? The Royal family adopted more 'English' sounding names owing to the First Word War, previously they were... "Saxe-Coburg Gotha Hanover Schleswig-Holstein" , which some thought may have sounded a little germanic. So they changed it to "Vindsor"

            Idiots even before then - Keats used 'architected' too. Contributors to these forums seem to have no qualms about 'googling' terms; maybe they even text the results to others. What's the big fuss about 'architect'?

              Ghastly word. I also hate the use of "authored" where people meant "wrote". Where will this creeping use of jobs as verbs end: "The officer policemanned the criminal."? "The fireman firemanned the fire."? "The lollipop lady lollipopped the children."? Designed is a perfectly acceptable word, why the need for "architected"?

              Couldn't have said it better myself. The very idea of using "architected" make me cringe.

                I have used, "primary designer and architect" as a descriptive phrase that gets the buzz word bingo going in a valid English sentence.

                        Actually, the Royle (intentional misspelling) family "The Windsors" renamed themselves from "Sax-Coberg" (unsure of spelling") last century to avoid their obvious links to Germany creating issues when Britain was at war with them, so I guess Englishness is no requirement. Historically, many more cases abound.

                          From page 28 on it's not "architected" any more, but "architect" and variations.
