[1] vagrant (n.)
mid-15c., "person who lacks regular employment, one
without fixed abode, a tramp," probably from Anglo-French vageraunt, also
wacrant, walcrant, which is said in many sources to be a noun use of the past
participle of Old French walcrer "to wander," from Frankish
(Germanic) *walken, from the same source as Old Norse valka "wander"
and English walk (v.).
Under this theory the word was influenced by Old French vagant, vagaunt "wandering," from Latin vagantem (nominative vagans), past participle of vagari "to wander, stroll about" (see vagary). But on another theory the Anglo-French word ultimately is from Old French vagant, with an unetymological -r-. Middle English also had vagaunt "wandering, without fixed abode" (late 14c.), from Old French vagant.
bum
"dissolute loafer, tramp," 1864, American English,
from bummer (q.v.) "loafer, idle person" (1855), which is probably
from German. Bum first appears in a German-American context, and bummer was
popular during the American Civil War in the slang of the North's army (which
had as many as 216,000 German immigrants in the ranks). There may also be
influence or merging with bum (n.1) "buttocks," which was applied
insultingly to persons from 1530s and is in Jamieson's 1825 Scottish
dictionary. Bum's rush "forcible ejection" first recorded 1910.
low-life (adj.)
"disreputable, vulgar," 1794, from low (adj.) +
life (n.). As a noun, also lowlife, "coarse, no-good person," from
1911. Low-lived (adj.) is attested from 1760.
tramp (n.)
"person who wanders about, idle vagrant,
vagabond," 1660s, from tramp (v.). Sense of "steamship which takes
cargo wherever it can be traded" (as opposed to one running a regular
line) is attested from c. 1880. The meaning "promiscuous woman" is
from 1922. Sense of "a long, toilsome walk" is from 1786.
drifter (n.)
1864, as a mining term for one who excavates
"drifts" (in the specialized sense of "horizontal
passages"); by 1883 as "boat fishing with drift-nets;" agent
noun from drift (v.). Meaning "vagrant, man following an aimless way of
life" is from 1908.
outcast (n.)
mid-14c., "an exile, a pariah, a person cast out or
rejected," literally "that which is cast out," noun use of past
participle of Middle English outcasten "to throw out or expel,
reject," from out (adv.) + casten "to cast" (see cast (v.)). The
adjective is attested from late 14c., "abject, socially despised."
The verbal phrase cast out "discard, reject" is from c. 1200. In an
Indian context, outcaste "one who has been expelled from his caste"
is from 1876; see caste.
rogue (n.)
1560s, "idle vagrant, sturdy beggar, one of the vagabond
class," a word of shadowy origin, perhaps a shortened form of roger (with
a hard -g-), thieves' slang for a begging vagabond who pretends to be a poor
scholar from Oxford or Cambridge, which is perhaps an agent noun in English
from Latin rogare "to ask." Another theory [Klein] traces it to
Celtic (compare Breton rog "haughty"); OED says, "There is no
evidence of connexion with F. rogue 'arrogant' " (the theory supported in
Century Dictionary).
By 1570s, generally, as "dishonest, unprincipled person, rascal." In slight playful or affectionate use, "one who is mischievous," 1590s. Meaning "large wild beast living apart from the herd" is by 1859, originally of elephants. As an adjective, in reference to something uncontrolled, irresponsible, or undisciplined, by 1964. Also common in 17c. as a verb. Rogue's gallery "police collection of mug shots of notorious law-breakers" is attested from 1859.
[2] mine (n.2)
"explosive device," by 1866 in reference to
submarine weapons (at first not distinguished from torpedoes), from mine (v.2).
By 1890 as "land-mine, explosive device placed on the ground (or just
under it) as a weapon."
mine (pron.)
Old English min "mine, my," (pronoun and
adjective), from Proto-Germanic *minaz (source also of Old Frisian, Old Saxon
Old High German min, Middle Dutch, Dutch mijn, German mein, Old Norse minn,
Gothic meins "my, mine"), from the base of me.
As an adjective, "belonging to me," preceding its noun (which may be omitted), it was superseded from 13c. by my when the noun is expressed. As a noun, "my people, my family," from Old English. In this heart of mine, no fault of mine, etc., the form is a double genitive.
mine (n.1)
"pit or tunnel made in the earth for the purpose of obtaining metals and minerals," c. 1300, from Old French mine "vein, lode; tunnel, shaft; mineral ore; mine" (for coal, tin, etc,) and from Medieval Latin mina, minera "ore," a word of uncertain origin, probably from a Celtic source (compare Welsh mwyn, Irish mein "ore, mine"), from Old Celtic *meini-. Italy and Greece were relatively poor in minerals, thus they did not contribute a word for this to English, but there was extensive mining from an early date in Celtic lands (Cornwall, etc.).
From c. 1400 in the military sense of "a tunnel under fortifications to overthrow them" (for further development of this sense see mine (n.2)).
mine (v.1)
c. 1300, minen, "to dig a tunnel under fortifications to overthrow them," from mine (n.1) or from Old French miner "to dig, mine; exterminate," from the French noun. From mid-14c. as "to dig in the earth" (in order to obtain minerals, treasure, etc.). Figurative meaning "ruin or destroy by slow or secret methods" is from mid-14c. Transitive sense of "to extract by mining" is from late 14c. For the sense of "to lay (explosive) mines," see mine (v.2). Related: Mined; mining.
mine (v.2)
"lay explosives," 1620s, in reference to old tactic of tunneling under enemy fortifications to blow them up; a specialized sense of mine (v.1) via a sense of "dig under foundations to undermine them" (late 14c.), and miner in this sense is attested from late 13c. Related: Mined; mining.
A naval mine is a self-contained explosive device placed in water to damage or destroy surface ships or submarines. Unlike depth charges, mines are deposited and left to wait until they are triggered by the approach of, or contact with, any vessel or a particular vessel type, akin to anti-infantry vs. anti-vehicle mines. Naval mines can be used offensively, to hamper enemy shipping movements or lock vessels into a harbour; or defensively, to protect friendly vessels and create "safe" zones. Mines allow the minelaying force commander to concentrate warships or defensive assets in mine-free areas giving the adversary three choices: undertake an expensive and time-consuming minesweeping effort, accept the casualties of challenging the minefield, or use the unmined waters where the greatest concentration of enemy firepower will be encountered.
Although international law requires signatory nations to declare mined areas, precise locations remain secret; and non-complying individuals may not disclose minelaying. While mines threaten only those who choose to traverse waters that may be mined, the possibility of activating a mine is a powerful disincentive to shipping. In the absence of effective measures to limit each mine's lifespan, the hazard to shipping can remain long after the war in which the mines were laid is over. Unless detonated by a parallel time fuze at the end of their useful life, naval mines need to be found and dismantled after the end of hostilities; an often prolonged, costly, and hazardous task.
Modern mines containing high explosives detonated by complex electronic fuze mechanisms are much more effective than early gunpowder mines requiring physical ignition. Mines may be placed by aircraft, ships, submarines, or individual swimmers and boatmen. Minesweeping is the practice of the removal of explosive naval mines, usually by a specially designed ship called a minesweeper using various measures to either capture or detonate the mines, but sometimes also with an aircraft made for that purpose. There are also mines that release a homing torpedo rather than explode themselves.
