I believe you are referring to the bombing of London during WWII by Nazi Germany. The word for it is called a "blitzkrieg" In German, it means "lighting war."
People went on ships to England to go to London and spread the word.
Blitz comes from the German word "blitz krieg" meaning lightning war, it was the bombing of Britain during wwII. Yes, as above, the Blitz was the bombing of the British cities following the Battle of Britain in the autumn of 1940 & the first part of 1941. Blitzkreig was the combination of the use of panzer (Armoured) forces coupled with dive bombers & rapid movement through a spearhead (Schwerpunkt) attack.
"Illiterate" means unable to read or write.
The word ballot has been derived from the french word ballotte which means a small ball.
The word "Florida" is Spanish for Flowery or Floral ( As in Floral land)
