Random information on the term “Forbid”:
Forbidden is a lost 1919 American silent drama film directed by Lois Weber and Phillips Smalley and starring Mildred Harris, who was billed as Mrs. Charles Chaplin. The picture was produced and distributed by the Universal Film Manufacturing Company.
The film was advertised as a Universal-Jewel production.
As described in a film magazine, Maddie Irwin (Harris), tired of living in the country, marries Fred Worthington (Henry Woodward), a childhood sweetheart long cherished as her idol but gone for five years to the city. After the wedding she learns that he has erected a sumptuous country home for them. Soon they become almost estranged by her desire to live in the city and his aversion to things metropolitan, born of a disappointment in love. He yields to her plea to take her to the city for a while at least. She learns to paint and powder, and his efforts to disgust her with that life fail. Then he pretends to leave her forever, having first arranged for a friend to take her to Chinatown. Here he, disguised, pretends to attempt an assault. A country acquaintance, who saw her and followed her, shoots him. She flees to her home in the country. Here her husband comes to her, keeping his plot secret, and happiness follows.
Random information on the term “BAN”:
A ban is a formal or informal prohibition of something. Bans are formed for the prohibition of activities within a certain political territory. Some bans in commerce are referred to as embargoes. Ban is also used as a verb similar in meaning to “to prohibit”.
In current English usage, ban is mostly synonymous with prohibition. Historically, Old English (ge)bann is a derivation from the verb bannan “to summon, command, proclaim” from an earlier Common Germanic *bannan “to command, forbid, banish, curse”. The modern sense “to prohibit” is influenced by the cognate Old Norse banna “to curse, to prohibit” and also from Old French ban, ultimately a loan from Old Frankish, meaning “outlawry, banishment”.
The Indo-European etymology of the Germanic term is from a root *bha- meaning “to speak”. Its original meaning was magical, referring to utterances that carried a power to curse.
In many countries political parties or groups are banned. Parties may be banned for many reasons, including extremism and anti-democratic ideologies, on ethnic or religious grounds, and sometimes simply because the group opposes government policies, with the ban sometimes alleging wrongdoing as the cause. Germany, for instance, has a long history behind its modern practice of banning political parties. The Nazi Party was banned in 1923; after the Nazi Party came into power in 1933 opposing parties such as the Social Democrats (SPD) and Communist Party of Germany (KPD) were banned, the Nazi Party was again banned and the ban on other parties lifted after the Nazi defeat in 1945, and the Communist Party was again banned from 1956 to 1968.
