Untitled
The followng was recently removed without justification               "Six hundred years ago in the english language a jade was a worn out useless old horse, four hundred years ago it meant an untrustwothy promiscuous woman"....... According to Chambers it still does. Hence the word 'jaded' ..( many folk don't know that and call their daughters Jade.. and good luck to them. I know a couple of very nice young women called Jade)  92.238.234.172 (talk) mikeL P.S.
