Forlana, итальянский
Venetian term for the furlana
Forli, английский
Forlorn hope, английский
Officers and men detached on desperate service to make a first attack, or to be the first in mounting a breach, or foremost in storming a fortress, or first to receive the whole fire of the enemy. forlorn-hopes was a term formerly applied to the videttes of the army. this ominous name (the enfants perdus of the french) is familiarized into a better one among soldiers, who call it the flowing-hope. promotion is usually bestowed on the survivors.
