Terminology: D8 Called to Belong 2025-07-24
Across
- The attribute of being divine. In an absolute sense only the infinite God is divine but the term is sometimes loosely applied to others than God, either mistakenly or because of some relationship they have to God. (Etym. Latin divinus, belonging to God.) Jesus is described as both fully human and fully divine.
- A square white linen cloth on which the Host and Chalice are placed during Mass. When not in use it may be kept in a burse. It is also used under the monstrance at Benediction or under the Blessed Sacrament at any time. (Etym. Latin corporalis, bodily; from corpus, body.)
- is the second sacrament of initiation. Where Baptism marks the transformation of a person into a child of God, Confirmation signifies the strengthening of faith through the same spirit received at Baptism. The candidate makes their baptismal promises themselves, showing that through Confirmation, he/she is taking on adult responsibility for their faith. At Confirmation the candidate receives the seal of the Holy Spirit when they are anointed with the oil of Chrism (Year 8 TKWL, Ch13: 13.1 Confirmation as a Sacrament of Initiation & 13.2 The Rite of Confirmation).
- This is when adults who have chosen to become Catholic are initiated into the Church through preparing for and receiving the sacrament/s of initiation. It is a process involving much discernment as the process allows time for the adult to grow in faith and understanding of the faith.
- involves welcoming a new member of the Christian community. It is an action of the Holy Spirit when we are transformed and born anew. Baptism frees us from sin (Year 8 TKWL, Ch12: 12.2 What is Baptism?).
- The words of institution of the Eucharist, pronounced at Mass, by which is accomplished the very sacrifice that Christ instituted at the Last Supper. The formula of consecration is uniform for all the approved canons of the Mass and reads, in literal translation: "Take and eat of this, all of you; for this is my body which will be given up for you . . . Take and drink of this, all of you; for this is the chalice of my blood, of the new and eternal testament, which will be shed for you and for many unto the remission of sins. Do this in commemoration of me." (Etym. Latin consecratio; from consecrare, to render sacred.)
- An invocation of the Holy Spirit said by the celebrant of the Mass after the words of Consecration. It occurs in all the liturgies of the East and is considered essential in the Orthodox Church to the validity of the Eucharistic sacrifice. Since the Second Vatican Council all the new canons of the Mass contain the epiklesis.
- The cup-shaped vessel or goblet used at Mass to contain the Precious Blood of Christ. For centuries it was made of precious material; if it was not of gold, the interior of the cup was gold-plated. Since the Second Vatican Council, chalices may be of other materials. A chalice is consecrated with holy chrism by a bishop. Regilding the inside does not destroy the consecration. sometimes the word chalice designates its contents. (Etym. Latin calix, cup, goblet, drinking vessel, chalice.)
- Like a sacrament, but instituted by the Church rather than Christ, a sacramental is a ritual or object which has a spiritual effect on the person who uses or performs the object or action, that is, the sacramental.
- on of Hands In both the Old and New Testaments, a significant symbolic action denoting various meanings. Examples: Israel giving his parental blessing to Ephraim and Manasseh (Genesis 48:18); Moses passing his authority to his successor (Numbers 27:18); Joshua receiving the spirit of wisdom to lead his people (Deuteronomy 34:9); Aaron preparing the ram for sacrifice (Exodus 29:10). In the New Testament its symbolism took on a further and deeper meaning: Jesus blessing the children (Matthew 19:15); Jesus bringing the official's daughter back to life (Matthew 9:18); Peter and John calling down the Holy Spirit on the Samaritans (Acts 8:17). After Pentecost the laying on of hands especially denoted the conferral of the powers and authority of the episcopacy, which Christ had given to the Apostles. In the Catholic Church the sacrament of orders: the diaconate, priesthood, and episcopate are administered by a bishop through the laying on of hands.
- Holy In Christian parlance the most sacred expression for any one of different forms of togetherness. As communion between God and the human soul in the divine indwelling; between Christ and the recipient of the Eucharist in Holy Communion; among all who belong to the Mystical Body in heaven, purgatory, and on earth in the Communion of Saints; and among those who belong to the Catholic Church as a communion of the faithful. (Etym. Latin communio, sharing unity, association; participation.)
- Feast commemorating the descent of the Holy Spirit on the Apostles. It takes its name form the fact that it comes about fifty days after Easter. The name was originally given to the Jewish Feast of Weeks, which fell in the fiftieth day after Passover, when the first fruits of the corn harvest were offered to the Lord (Deuteronomy 16:9), and later on the giving of the law to Moses was celebrated. In the early Church, Pentecost meant the whole period from Easter to Pentecost Sunday, during which no fasting was allowed, prayer was only made standing, and Alleluia was sung more often. (Etym. Greek hē pentēkostē, the fiftieth day.)
Down
- A sensibly perceptible effect, surpassing at least the powers of visible nature, produced by God to witness to some truth or testify to someone's sanctity. (Etym. Latin miraculum, miracle, marvel; from mirari, to wonder.)
- An action that is a regular part of a person’s life, such as brushing hair or teeth. An action that has a regular place in worship, such as blessing with holy water or genuflecting (Year 8 TKWL, Ch10: A Closer Look at Some Catholic Symbols).
- symbol of the Blessed Sacrament since the monstrance is the sacred vessel which contains the consecrated Host when exposed or carried in procession. It is a well-known emblem of St. Clare, who is reported to have repulsed unbelievers who assaulted her convent of nuns by presenting to their gaze Christ in the monstrance. Some examples for context: St. Peter Julian Eymard, founder of the Blessed Sacrament Fathers, is symbolized carrying the monstrance and blessing the people with it. St. Thomas Aquinas has the monstrance among his many emblems as the author of the famous hymns Lauda Sion and Pange Lingua, written to honour the Eucharistic Lord. St. John Neumann, who first established the forty hours' devotion in America, and St. Paschal Baylon, patron of Eucharistic Congresses, are both represented in art with the monstrance. (Etym. Latin monstrans, from monstrare, to show, point out, indicate.)
- A notice or object that points the way and gives names, such as shop names, road signs or a uniform for a specific occupation, like a school uniform (Year 8 TKWL, Ch10: A Closer Look at Some Catholic Symbols)
- saucer like dish of the same material as the chalice--gold-plated and consecrated by a bishop or his delegate with holy chrism. It must be large enough to cover the chalice. On it rests the bread to be consecrated, and later on the Sacred Host. it was customary to have a subdeacon hold the paten, covered by the humeral veil, from the Offertory to the Pater Noster in solemn Masses. (Etym. Latin patena, a broad, shallow dish or pan.)
- victim of sacrifice, and therefore the consecrated Bread of the Eucharist considered as the sacrifice of the Body of Christ. The word is also used of the round wafers used for consecration. (Etym. Latin hostia, sacrificial offering.)
- An object or ritual action which carries a special meaning for a person or a community such as a wedding ring, a school badge or a handshake (Year 8 TKWL, Ch10: A Closer Look at Some Catholic Symbols).
- In general, the manner and form of a religious function. Hence the words and actions to be carried out in the performance of a given act, e.g., the rite of baptism, or the rite of consecration, the Roman Rite. The term in its widest ecclesiastical sense refers to the principal historic rituals in the Catholic Church, whose essentials are the same as derived from Jesus Christ. The four parent rites in Catholicism are the Antiochene, Alexandrine, Roman, and Gallican. Some religious orders have their own rites. In all cases, however, the ritual must be approved by the Holy See. (Etym. Latin ritus, religious custom, usage, ceremony.)
- is the central sacrament, and the one to which all sacraments lead. Eucharist recalls and celebrates the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and the new covenant between God and his people (Year 8 TKWL, Ch11: 11.3 Sacraments of Initiation). In this sacrament the bread and wine become the body and blood of Jesus Christ.
- A visible action with a deeper meaning and supernatural power. A sacrament is part of the mystery of God. The early Christians used the word to describe the holy moments that Jesus Christ had chosen to be with them (Year 8 TKWL, Ch11: 11.2 Understanding Sacraments).

- TSo performing arithmetic using Napier’s bones, a manual calculating device by John Napier of Merchiston. The dicipline, coined in a 1617 Latin treatise, is named after the Greek word for “rod”. If the “a” is replaced with an “e” & the “b” is removed, the word has a “colorful” prefix and refers to TSo Cao Xueqin's Hongloumeng, written in the mid-18th century (Qing dynasty) and one of China’s Four Great Classical Novels.
- TSo modern trash and its associated items like bins, compactors, and liners. The discipline was founded in 1973 by two University of Arizona students when going through Bob Dylan’s trash and is now directed by archeologist William Rathje in relation to environmental concerns. Its name comes from a synonym from refuse or rubbish and should not be confused with midden excavations, which study domestic waste from ancient times.
- TSo dying and death, including the social and forensic aspects related to loss. The prefix comes from the Greek personification of death, twin brother to Hypnos (sleep) and son of Nyx (night) & Erebos (darkness). It also sounds similar to a purple Marvel villain from Titan associated with a gauntlet. The discipline was founded in 1903 by immunologist Élie Metchnikoff, who also coined gerontology (TSo aging and longevity) and was jointly awarded the 1908 Nobel Prize in Medicine with Paul Ehrlich.
- TSo dragonflies and damselflies, derived from taxonomic Insecta order they belong to which describes a common mandible feature found in many insects. Remove the 5th letter (an “a”) and it becomes TSo teeth structure and development – the forensic version of which was wrongfully used in Arizona vs Ray Krone, who became the 100th inmate exonerated from death row since its reinstatement in 1976.
- Tso value from a philosophical perspective, coined in 1908 and notably represented by Russian philosopher Nikolay O. Lossky. The field is closely related with meta-ethics and often researched in conjunction with praxeology, TSo human actions. Ideas of intrinsic and extrinsic value are central to this discipline, as whether an entity is good in itself or a means to an end is a defining characteristic of philosophies like hedonism.
- TSo bells, which includes both the technology behind the instruments (e.g. their casting, ringing and tuning) as well as the art of playing them itself (e.g. history, methods and traditions). Its Latin prefix refers the south-west Italian region containing Nola, the diocese where St Paulinus introduced bells to Christian worship & which lies between Mount Vesuvius and the Apennines. The namesake region’s coat of arms is “argent a bend gules”, contains the 7th most populous EU city and known for its “happy, lucky countryside”.
- TSo money and currency, from the Late Latin for “coin”. Subfields in this study include exonumia/paranumismatica (TSo tokens, elongated coins, chips & medallions), notaphily (TSo paper currency & banknotes) and scripophily (TSo bond & stock certificates). Notable practitioners include Bletchley Park codebreaker Joan Clarke, curator Marion Archibald and French naval officer Joseph Pellerin; meanwhile, important items include the Flowing Hair Dollar and Brashers Doubloon.
- TSo past tropical cyclone activity using geological proxies and historical documentation, coined by meteorologist Kerry Emanuel. The discipline’s name comes from Greek prefix for “ancient” and an English synonym for “storm” which the title of a 1611 Shakespeare play. Analysis of overwash deposits, speleothems (cave formations) and beach ridges are key to this field, which help researchers determine the recurrence rates, long-term fluctuations and after-effects of storms. In turn, this can can inform disciplines like archeology (on the classic Maya collapse) or actuarial science (on insurance risk assessments).
- TSo inland waters like rivers, reservoirs, and lakes. The term, based on the Greek for “lake”, was coined by François-Alphonse Forel, the father of the discipline for his Lake Geneva research. A prominent practitioner of this field is George Evelyn Hutchinson, the father of modern ecology. Replace the “n” with an “a” & “c” to get an outdated term for TSo slugs and shell-less gastropod mollusks, rarely used these day as the group is extremely polyphyletic.
- TSo cell function and structure in biology, as studied by physiologists like Jan Evangelista Purkyně. Specifically, it refers to the examination of a single cell type, often collected from body fluid samples, which is used in medical tests for cancer diagnosis and fetal abnormality. screening. A prominent subfield involving pathology (TSo causes and effects of disease/injury) was founded in 1928 by Georgios Nicolas Papanikolaou, a physician and inventor of the “Pap smear” test.It differs from histology as it looks at a few cells, not full tissues.
Down
- TSo fermentation’s biochemistry and its practical applications (alcohols, pickles, breads, cheeses etc), derived from the Ancient Greek for “to leaven”. Prominent researchers in the field include chemist Eduard Buchner, who won the 1907 Chemistry Nobel Prize for fermenting sugar without living cells. Replace the “m” with a “th” to get TSo beer and beer brewing, which is comparable to oenology, or TSo wine and winemaking excluding the agricultural processes (which are part of viticulture).
- TSo measuring time and mechanical time-keeping devices (watches, sundials, clepsydras, chronometers etc), not of the falcon-headed Egyptian god of the sky despite sounding similar. The field differs from chronometry in that the latter includes electrical devices. Replace the “r” with a “d” to get TSo pathways in different contexts, like between brain cells in neuroscience (also called connectomics), on land in geography and within a person’s life space as described by Kurt Lewin in psychology.
- TSo seed and fruit structures, founded by 18th century botanist Joseph Gaertner – not TSo oily freshwater fish from the family Cyprinidae as it might seem at first. However, change the “p” to a “t” and it becomes TSo maps and map making, studied by people like Muhammad al-Idrisi, Shanawdithit, Marie Tharp, Inō Tadataka and Phyllis Pearsall. If instead, you add a “h” after the “p”, the word refers to an involuntary lint-picking behavior symptomatic by delirious patients in stupor, extreme exhaustion or high fever, originating from ancient Greek for “to behave as though one were collecting straw".
- TSo cactus spines and Euphorbia thorns, used to determine past climate conditions like with tree rings. The word has two roots with mythological Greek origins. The first from a nymph who scratched Apollo’s face while rebuffing his advances & turned into this thorny Mediterranean plant, found ornamenting Corinthian & Composite order capitals (i.e tops of columns). The second, meaning “time” in Ancient Greek, is related to the Titan ruler of the mythological Golden Age, son of Uranus & Gaia and father to four or five of the 12 Olympians + Hades.
- TSo interacting surfaces in relative motion and application of wear principles. The word was coined in 1966 by British engineer Peter Jost while discussing economics of corrosion, however research can be traced back to Leonardo da Vinci’s observations or Guillaume Amontons’ laws of friction. Replace the “b” with a “ch” to get TSo hair and scalp, a para-medical discipline which links dermatology and cosmetology, derived from the Greek for “hair”.
- TSo physical remains from alien civilizations, a fictional discipline commonly found in science fiction which adds the Greek prefix for “stranger” to an existing study of ancient people through material culture. Although sometimes mocked as too reliant on the Big Dumb Object (BDO) trope, works like 2001: A Space Odyssey, Alien and Mass Effect have found critical acclaim with stories that involve the field.
- TSo obligations and duties from a normative ethics viewpoint, in which it argues that actions are considered moral based on a series of rules, not due to an action’s consequences. As such, the framework is synonymous with censorial ethics and contrasted against consequentialism or pragmatic ethics, as showcased in the Trolley problem. Kantian ethics is a clear example of this moral philosophy type, as his three-part categorical imperative formula outlines the creation of maxims which determine if an action is intrinsically good; another case is René Descartes’ Divine command theory, wherein moral obligations are appointed by God’s will.
- TSo the Shroud of Turin, from the Greek word in the Gospel of Mark to describe the burial cloth. If you remove the 4th, 6th and 7th letters (a D, N, O respectively) and the word becomes TSo China via its philosophy, language, history and culture by a primarily Western scholarship, which was coined around 1838 and likely gets its name from the 1st dynasty of Imperial China. Related to fields like philology (TSo languages in historical sources) and epigraphy (TSo written inscriptions), this latter discipline is directly translated as “Han Studies” in parts of Asia.
- TSo vehicle tax disks placed in front windscreens, particularly those issued in the UK from January 1st 1921 to September 30th 2014. Originating from the acronym for a car permit certifying taxes were paid to the UK DVLA (like the USA DMV), the system was phased out in favor of license plate recognition software after 93 years. If the letters “xil” are added before the “l”, the word becomes TSo flags and signals, coined by Whitney Smith Jr in 1961 derived from the name of Roman military standards; prior to the research fell under heraldry.
- TSo postcards. From the Greek diminutive of writing tablet, it is related with philately (TSo postage stamps and postal history) though more difficult to due to an unregulated production. Notable periods include: “Pioneer” (1893-1898), “Undivided Back” (1901-190), “White Boarder” (1915-1930), “Linen”(1930-1945) and “Photochrome” (1939 to present). If you remove the 1st and 3rd letter, it becomes TSo reasons behind the way that things are, like a disease’s cause in medicine (e.g. scurvy from vitamin C deficiency) or the origin of learned behaviors in psychology (e.g. Pavlovian response). It is also used when discussing national myths like the glorification of Roman Empire’s founding in Virgil’s Aeneid or creation stories in religious texts to describe various phenomenon.
- TSo groupings and classifications based on common characteristics, from the Middle English for “symbol”. The specifics depend on the exact field, but can include medieval swords (Oakeshott), traditional Korean medicine (Sasang), intimate partner violence (Johnson’s), higher nervous activity (Pavlov’s), American farms (USDA) etc. It can describe physical objects such as The Becher’s photographs, or theoretical concepts like in statistics, and should not be confused with either the art of arranging letters or TSo landform features.
- TSo bird eggs, the hobby of egg collecting or the investigation of Easter eggs in videogames. It’s often studied with to ornithology (TSo birds), ethology (TSo animal behavior) and caliology (TSo bird nests). Add a “r” between two vowels to get TSo Earth’s mountain landscapes, also called montology. If instead a “d” is added in same position, it becomes TSo a hypothetic life force researched by Carl von Reichenbach named after a one-eyed Norse god. Lastly, if a “z” is added to the start, it becomes Tso animals in general, like their physiology, classification and distribution.
- TSo how soil influences living things, such as plant communities and humankind’s agronomic land use patterns. Early practitioners include as Cato the Elder (234-149 BC), who wrote about crop rotations with legumes to build soil nitrogen, and Xenophon (431–355 BC), who observed benefits of turning cover crop. Pneumatic chemist Jan Baptist van Helmont also worked in this discipline, determining that a willow tree’s weight doesn’t originate from soil. It is one of two major branches in soil science, the other being pedology (TSo soil formation, classification, and associated frameworks in geology).

It’s also the last name the Victorian era social reformer known for developing polar area diagrams & modern nursing.
- This cryptocrystalline rock is formed from layers of chalcedony in alternating colors, though has parallel band rather than curved ones of agate rock. Its name comes from the Greek for “fingernail”, due to the appearance of white & flesh-colored varieties, despite the black version & red “sard” variant being more famous or commonly used in intaglio for superstitious properties. Most of sold carvings of this material are calcite or agates fakes, created using techniques described by naturalist Pliny the Elder in Naturalis Historia. It’s also the naming inspiration of a Generation 1 Pokémon owned by the Pewter City Gym leader & differs from a 4 species large antelope genus by one letter.
- Contrary to popular belief, this 18th century Scottish mechanical engineer was not inspired by a kettle & did not invent the stem engine. Instead, he greatly improved upon the 1712 Newcomen engine with things such as the separate condenser, centrifugal governor & the sun & planet gear, which proved fundamental to the Industrial revolution. Seen on the current red GBP50 note (Series F) with Mathew Boulton, he also developed the concept of horsepower, the pressure-volume diagram, parallel motion & a namesake linkage . Like this puzzle’s “F” answer, an SI unit is named after him (for power).
- I’m a non-climacteric fruit native to South East Asia with a “sweet, mildly acidic flavor” reminiscent of grapes or lychees, whose name is derived from the Malay word for “hair”.

Additionally, he started the Royal Institution Christmas Lectures to educate & inspire young scientists – as pictured on a withdrawn mauve-purple GBP 20 note (Series E). Like this puzzle’s “W” answer, an SI unit is named after him (for capacitance).
- From the Indonesian “to tie”, this dyeing technique involves creating desired patterns by binding yarn together to form a resist. It differs from tie-dye or Batik in that the threads are not woven into cloth before resists are applied & dyed, which creates a characteristic “blurred” double-sided fabric pattern. Though the term is originally of Asian origin, the technique was likely developed from several region independently & is now a generic English loanword for the process regardless of pattern or location of production.
- While the first recoded use of paper for this purpose dates to 1035 in Cairo markets, many other natural materials like amphorae & bota bags were used prior for similar purposes. French confectioner Nicolas Appert is known as the father of a tin form of this household item, but British merchant Peter Durand was the one who patented a form of this process in 1810. Other notable names in the field & their associated patent year include Francs Wolle (1852), Roner Gair (1890) & Joseph Coyle (1911). Mil spec regulations to this feature became implemented due to critical losses of supplies in 1940s Icelandic operations. The main aims of these items include protection, containment, portion control, convenience, & security.
- Images of these mythological creatures were placed on objects as apotropaic symbols due to their petrifaction abilities, including the oldest stone pediment in Greece.

One was also used to symbolize "French Liberty” following the French Revolution, unlike Athena-personified "English Liberty”.
- “Oh, the humanity!” cried Herbert Morrison, when reporting on a 1937 disaster involving this mode of transport. Featured in the name of an English rock band & used by the German military in WWI, this machine is made using duralumin & goldbeater’s skin.
