Submitted 12/18/24. Raritan is the Lenape name for the river. There are very few examples of Lenape words inscribed in the landscape although they were here before anyone else.

Submitted 12/18/24. This ripped down barricade tape interweaves English "caution" and Spanish "cuidado". This is an example of "authoritative" multilingual signage that has become "noise" in the landscape.

Submitted 12/18/24. One English sign, "Repair and maintenance of cars prohibited in parking area" is translated into Spanish in another sign by its side: "Prohibidó hacer reparaciones y mantenimiento de vehículos en la area de estacionamiento" (is this correct Spanish?). Farther away, one sign appears only in English: (something about the managment will not take responsibility for anything stolen out of cars parked in the lot). Who does managment presume to be the theives and who does maintenance on their cars?

Submitted 12/18/24. The Douglass campus motto (under the fir tree) is Σοφία και Σωφροσυνη, which means "Wisdom and Sobriety". The motto for all of Rutgers is in Latin. Both are considered languages of Western Enlightenment, but perhaps using the older Greek for the women's college was a claim to women's ability to go deep in their learning.

Submitted 12/18/24. "Poké nagomi" is a restaurant serving bowls of raw fish over rice. "Poke" is a Hawaiian word meaning "to slice", and was used to refer to the pre-European practice of eating sliced raw fish, which transformed into the Japanes dish of sliced fish over rice (ポケ), now gone global (the accent on the anglicized spelling indicates that the word should be pronounced with two syllables). "Nagomi" (平和), meaning "peace", is the name of a Japanese philosophy for finding harmony, balance, and inner peace. On the glass window, there is also the standard "Halal" sign, written also in Arabic حلال.

Submitted 12/18/24. "Nosh" was borrowed into English to mean "eat, snack" from Yiddish "noshn" (or נאָש in Hebrew orthography), meaning "nibble", which is based on the Middle High German "naschen" with the same meaning.

Submitted 12/18/24. "Chai Chenak Cafe" is a Paikistani restaurant -- the name is written in Urdu (Arabic) script as چائی چناک کیفے on the small panel to the left. Chai (meaning "spiced tea") is a borrowing into English from Arabic or Russian, but originated in China as 茶 (or chá, in pinying). meaning "tea". "Cafe" as a coffee house, was borrowed into English from French, based on Italian "caffe" for the drink, which was borrowed from Turkish or Arabic. "Chenak" seems to be a type of tea associated with Tharparkar, Pakistan.
