I swear that, if I learn that anyone has acquired nuclear weapons or is acquiring them, I will stop that person from using them.
Well, that'll be interesting if Elspeth ever manages to get home...

Intent of the oath counts for a lot. Not sure if they can squeeze out of that without a 'reasonable' or 'in Arda' in there though.

...This seems like a good time for more screaming about Evil Maitimo. He's swearing a mind-altering oath. What are you doing, Evil Maitimo.

What is the sample of Arabic that Can uses in been here forever? Google Translate produces gibberish and I can’t tell whether the original sample is gibberish or whether it’s a particularly low-quality translation even for Google.

It apparently contained the word Wikipedia, so it is not as old as the typical Lorem Ipsum, but that was a reasonable description if what came out of Google Translate.

Was the explaning in question an… alternate spelling… of explains, or an apparent synonym of deplane except for a different kind of “plane”? Which story?

It was a pun, because she was explaining planes.
