	Macaronics - LoveToKnow 1911
		MACARONICS, a species of burlesque poetry, in which words from a modern vernacular, with Latin endings, are introduced into Latin verse, so as to produce a ridiculous effect.
		Macaronic prose was not unknown as an artifice of serious oratory, and abounds (e.g.) in the sermons of Michel Menot (1440-1518), who says of the prodigal son, Emit sibi pulcheras caligas d'ecarlate, bien tirees.
		There is a certain macaronic character about many poems of Skelton and Dunbar, as well as the famous Barnabae itinerarium (1638) of Richard Brathwait (1588-1673), but these cannot be considered legitimate specimens of the type as laid down by Folengo.

	Architecture & Macaroni
		To further understand the nature of macaronic thinking in architecture, a crucial corollary to append to the fundamental analogy between cooking and designing elaborated by Scarpa and his entourage is that, in traveling to see architecture in other places outside of their own region, architects cannot visit buildings without tasting local dishes and wines.
		The macaronic interchange between the impressions of body behaviors together with the sensuous nature of subjective qualities and the measure of objective qualities such as size, shape, temperature and weight is essential for any ending artifact to be successful in terms of a plurality of approaches which challenges authoritative categories.
		The macaronic in its purest form is a northern Italian creation with its precedents in medieval burlesque, goliardic verse and sacred parodies, and with extra-Italian continuators and resonance in various European countries and in Rabelais.

	Teofilo Folengo - LoveToKnow 1911
		TEOFILO FOLENGO (1491-1544), otherwise known as Merlino Coccajo or Cocajo, one of the principal Italian macaronic poets, was born of noble parentage at Cipada near Mantua on the 8th of November 1491.

		Its macaronic style is rendered peculiarly perplexing to the foreigner by the frequent introduction of words and phrases from the Mantuan patois.

		Macaronic meaning includes the invisible with the visible, the unknown with the known.
		Macaronic meaning engages the imagination in the back-projection of narratives, conditions, and traditions that lend authority to what is, in technical terms, a breakdown of meaning.

	Jeffrey Garrett: Departmental Resource Pages
		Strictly, the term denotes a kind of comic verse in which words from a vernacular language are introduced into Latin (or other foreign-language) verses and given Latin inflections; such verse had a vogue among students in Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries, but is rare in English.
		It is claimed that America is not a place where macaronic verse has ever flourished, but that is mainly because ethnic and immigrant literatures have been neglected by the composers of the literary canon—at least until very recently.
		For purists, this may or may not be "macaronic" at all: in fact it is a mixture of more or less normal English and at least one aspect of German grammar, namely grammatical gender that, as you will see, has absolutely nothing to do with natural gender.

		While ofter macaronic lines were employed in the systematic translation of the Latin hymns, they could also be used as the basis for creating new hymns.
		In Ryman’s macaronic lyrics, apart from the Latin tags and “connective phrases composed for a particular carol, most of the remaining lines come from the liturgy itself, especially its metrical portions.
		The macaronic hymn tradition, dedicated to making the hymnody of Christmas especially accessible to unlatinate laymen, by happy accidents of metrics and measure becomes, as we see in Ryman, a chief force in the specialization the carol to the season with which we now associate it.

	Uncle Jazzbeau’s Gallimaufrey: cortum versicale de flois
		Although, the term macaronic stems from the early 16th century, the tendency to mix languages in poetry has been around at least as early as Ausonius.
		By "inaugurated" I presume you mean the word "macaronic" was first used in this context; the form, of course, is much older -- the medieval poets were very fond of mixing languages.
		Though a lot of the early "macaronic" poetry consists of using different lexical items in isolation, e.g., Greek words in Latin poetry, or alternating lines, e.g., in some medieval English poems, writing a line in Middle English, Anglo-Norman, and then Latin.

		Jim at UJG has an entry on the charming Renaissance genre of mixed-language poetry (vernacular words mixed into Latin verse) known as "macaronic" (after the Macaroneae by Tifi Odasi of Padua, c 1490).
		But the style, if not the name, goes much further back; it was very popular among the wandering medieval poets, who loved to mix Arabic, Spanish, Provençal, French, English, and other languages, depending on their audience and experience.
		The zajal and an earlier strophic verse-form called the muwashshaha were erudite Arabic compositions based on a demotic refrain, sometimes in Romance vernacular or colloquial Arabic with Romance words mixed in.

		Gazebos are freestanding, roofed, and open on all sides; they provide shade, basic shelter, ornamental features in a landscape, and a place to rest.
		In their original use—the word appears in English in 1752— they were sited to take advantage of a view, so much so that among the false etymologies for gazebo are Que c'est beau (French: "How beautiful") and the Macaronic Latin gazebo ("I shall gaze").
		Earlier examples of garden pavilions that have survived were more solidly built, though open to views.
