| has gloss | (noun) a social gathering to carry out some communal task or to hold competitions bee |
| has gloss | eng: A bee, as used in quilting bee or spelling bee, is an expression used together with another word to describe a gathering of peers to accomplish a task or to hold a competition. Especially in the past, the tasks were often major jobs, such as clearing a field of timber or raising a barn, that would be difficult to carry out alone. It was often both a social and utilitarian event. Jobs like corn husking or sewing, could be done as a group to allow socialization during an otherwise tedious chore. Such bees often included refreshments and entertainment provided by the group. |

| has gloss | deu: Nachbarschaftshilfe bezeichnet eine gegenseitige, unter Nachbarn gewährte Form der Hilfe und Unterstützung, bei der zumeist auf ein Entgelt in Form einer Geldzahlung verzichtet und stattdessen Gegenleistungen in ähnlicher Form erbracht werden. Wirtschaftswissenschaftler kritisieren diesen Weg, da Entgeltfinanzierung weitaus höherere Effizienz garantieren könnte. Außerdem führe Nachbarschaftshilfe, die nur auf Gegenleistungen zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt fußt, zu gegenseitiger Abhängigkeit in unnötig verkrusteten Beziehungsstrukturen. |
