- Píše nám p. ředitel pojišťovny Fénix Karel Málek: „Bylo by záslužné slovo havarie z českého jazyka vykořeniti. Francouzsky se říká avarie, anglicky average, etymologický základ je v arabském slově avár. Jenom němčina si utvořila výraz Haverei, patrně podle námořnické hantýrky, a tento německý termín byl pak otcem české havarie. (...)“ (http://nase-rec.ujc.cas.cz/archiv.php?art=3221, Naše řeč, 1937)
