Wadding? That seems so odd. I've only ever heard wadding used for something like cloth or paper. If I heard that it would be very unappetizing 'cause I'd picture the turkey stuffed with rags (or maybe gum).
Its also the term for what is placed in a cannon (along with the projectile):
To keep the powder in, a bit of wadding (compressed fiber particles) is placed at the end on top of the powder. The plastic or paper casing (hull) is then crimped over it. Wadding can be very dangerous, as it leaves the barrel at nearly the speed of sound and travels several feet.
Lends a whole new dimension to dinner

I believe in one God, Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all ages; Light of Light, true God of true God, begotten, not created, of one essence with the Father through Whom all things were made.
Who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven and was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary and became man.
He was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, and suffered and was buried;
And He rose on the third day, according to the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father;
And He will come again with glory to judge the living and dead. His kingdom shall have no end.
And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the Creator of life, Who proceeds from the Father, Who together with the Father and the Son is worshipped and glorified, Who spoke through the prophets.
In one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.
I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
I look for the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the age to come.
Amen.
Yes I do remember the carbonated beverage item with the following list:
soda
pop
cola
fizzy
etc.
That was part of his atlas.
Must be it, then ...
(my 3 young sorts all say "soft drink" and "soda" interchangeably).

Yes, very dangerous, explosively so.

I made model rockets as a kid and you had to stuff wadding in 'em. I can't remember but I think it was to protect the parachute from the heat.
Oh wow ! I'd forgotten about that (my brother used to launch them).

My brother liked to make those soda pop rockets using fire cracker powder. Could have blown his fingers off. The things that kids will do.
Do you remember those videos of soda fizzies that the folks in TAW posted where guys were dropping them off from church roofs? That was so dangerous. When the bottles hit the ground, they would explode upwards.
Oh now we are going off topic.
Linguistics also involves homophones such as cannons and canons. We have had fun with those two terms, haven't we Thekla?

I just took the CSET - English test for California Teachers - Subsets II and IV.
Although I cannot talk about specific questions, as the test copyright is very much protected and enforced, I can say that the test had a lot of very interesting questions about language and linguistics (it is advertised that way .
Strange too, because many English teachers hate linguistics and do not do very well in it.
When I was taking English 610 - Syntax (or advanced grammar), we originally had 25 students in the class. On the first day of class, the instructor wrote some tree diagrams while explaining the development of Noam Chomsky's Minimalist Program.
When one English major said that the tree diagrams reminded her of calculus and that she did not like calculus, the professor told her that calculus is very important and that every college student should have some knowledge of calculus.
All of the English majors walked out of the class during the break and never came back. Only Linguistics majors (me included) remained.

That is quite intresting!

أيها الرب سيد حياتي لا تبليني بروح البطالة والفضول. وحب الرئاسة والكلام البطال. بل أنعم علي أنا عبدك بروح العفة والاتضاع والصبر والمحبة. نعم أيها الرب الملك هب لي أن أرى زلاتي. ولا أدين أخي. فإنك مبارك إلى دهر الدهرين آمين
Well, I do not know that I passed the test, but I have a good feeling about it.
I had time to go back and revise my essays until I felt that they were successful in meeting the objectives.
Thanks.
