In Stir

- A slang word for prison

- Stir is a 19th-century slang term for "prison," which some word historians believe is derived from the Romani stariben, which has the same meaning.

“I was in Brummagem, and was seven days in the new ‘stir’ (prison).” The term “Brummagem” was a local nickname for the English city of Birmingham.

- However, the phrase “in stir” (without the article) was the usual slang term for “in prison.”

P.E.K.K.A

Originally, the acronym P.E.K.K.A did not stand for anything in particular. On August 22, 2012, Supercell conducted a Facebook contest to see who could come up with the best written-out moniker for P.E.K.K.A as evaluated by the amount of likes the comment earned. "Perfectly Enraged Knight Killer of Assassins" was the winning name. In the Facebook announcement, the person who contributed the acronym was identified as Victor.

The name P.E.K.K.A is derived from the old Finnish name "Petrus" (which in turn comes from the Greek name Petros which means stone). Pedro derives from the same name. Pekka is a Finnish name as well.

P.E.K.K.A's gender has been verified as female, as stated in one of the Loading Screen Hints, "The armor on P.E.K.K.A is so hefty that Spring Traps don't damage her," as well as in multiple official YouTube videos.

Commuovere

“A heartwarming story that moved you to tears.”

Basically, any movie with a dog in it does this to me. If you want to experience Commuovere firsthand, watch Hachiko, a film based on a true story about a dog who waited for his owner at the train station every day – and did so for years after the owner died. (It's okay to cry right now.)
