Jes, vi pravas, mi jam memoras, ke mi auxdis pri atolo Bikini, kie nuklea eksplodo sxokis la mondon kaj same la nova bankostumo sxokis gxin. Do "unupeca bikino" ne estas kontrauxsenca.
Sed aliflanke: se la tuta mondo nomas la unupecan bankostumon "monokino", kial gxuste lingvo ambicianta igxi internacia, elpensu novan nomon, kiun neniu uzas?

Fakte ne. Ĝi nomiĝas laŭ Bikini Atolo en la Pacifiko. El http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bikini: The bikini, which shocked when it appeared on French beaches in 1947, dates back to antiquity, in Çatalhöyük and the Greco-Roman world. The modern bikini was invented by French engineer Louis Réard in 1946. He named it after Bikini Atoll in the Pacific, the site of the Operation Crossroads nuclear weapon tests in July that year. The reasoning was that the burst of excitement created by it would be like a nuclear device. The monokini, a bikini variant, is a back formation from bikini, interpreting the first syllable as the Latin prefix bi- meaning "two" or "doubled", and substituting for it mono- meaning "one". Jacques Heim called his bikini precursor the Atome, named for its size, and Louis Réard claimed to have "split the Atome" to make it smaller.

La konkurenca bankostumo estis la unupeca "Atome" ("atomo" en la franca); do "bikini" duigis (dividis?) la atomon. __________ Informace od ESET NOD32 Antivirus, verze databaze 4723 (20091228) __________ Tuto zpravu proveril ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.cz __________ Informace od ESET NOD32 Antivirus, verze databaze 4723 (20091228) __________ Tuto zpravu proveril ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.cz
