Names, characters, places and incidents were either the product of the writer’s

time or intention to use them for any commercial values.

There were some
references to Tarzan vocabulary which was relevant for the continuity of the
tale. (Page 7 & 18 referred)

used by Ian Fleming in the Bond series.
