burble
[Lewis Carroll's "Jabberwocky" ] Like flame, but connotes
that the source is truly clueless and ineffectual (mere
flamers can be competent). A term of deep contempt. "There's
some guy on the phone burbling about how he got a DISK FULL
error and it's all our comm software's fault." This is
mainstream slang in some parts of England.

Crossplane
The crossplane or cross-plane is a crankshaft design for piston engines with a 90° angle (phase in crank rotation) between the crank throws. The crossplane crankshaft is the most popular configuration used in V8 road cars.
Aside from the V8 already mentioned, other examples of configurations using such 90° piston phases include straight-2, straight-4, V2, and V4 engines.
Crossplane crankshafts could feasibly be used with a great many other cylinder configurations, but the advantages and disadvantages described below may not apply to any or all of them and must be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Examples of use of burble
1. It is a chuckling burble, belonging to an old but very real man.
2. It is possible to feel quite tender towards teenagers, and, it goes without saying, over–protective (hence the sudden interest in tracking devices). Until that is, you see their bedrooms – an astonishing swamp–like reconstruction of Middle Earth – or hear them burble and twitter to each other in exclusive teen–speak that brings to mind Dustin Hoffman counting matchsticks in Rain Man.
