You hear about it a lot, but did Ronald Reagan ever actually say this? Which speech was it in? Is there a transcript online?
The best I could find using Google, as I’m sure you could too:

The word ‘hoax’ does not appear in any dictionary. 
Yeah, but I haven’t found any references to it being a load of crap, either. It just seems to be accepted with no actual evidence.
Strange, but hoax is in my dictionary. American Heritage.

I didn’t see your winking smiley.
Of course the word ‘hoax’ is in the dictionary. The word ‘gullible’, however, isn’t.
Why is ‘long’ a short word, yet ‘abbreviated’ isn’t?

And why doesn’t onomatopoeia sound like anything?

Apparently Bush did say that the French have no word for entrepreneur. If he did, he was correct. Obviously it is a French word but just means contractor. I regularly see vans with “entrepreneur electrique” or similar things on them, but it just means contractor, nothing special. The French have borrowed the word–if it is a word–“entrepreneurship” with essentially the same meaning as in English.
Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose. So find out how to say “Nothing left to lose” and then you know how to say “freedom” in Russian.

Snopessays he didn’t say it.
свобода
So which are you being in this case?
I used Google and clicked Translate This Page, and it doesseem to mean freedom ( mouse over the word Freedom ).
But is that the word they used in voice-over in the Russian release of Braveheart, at the very end? You know the scene I mean.
Apparently, it is:
Translation: Wallace, gathering his remaining strength, cries “Svoboda!”
