Read the edition and extraction limits
  • Historical 1890 Latin dictionary, digitized by the Perseus Digital Library; not a current scholarly consensus or a newly reviewed SET-U analysis.
  • Explicit source etymology notes retain the dictionary's original claims and abbreviations. They are not asserted parent links, and not every entry supplies an origin.
  • Greek quotations in this particular source artifact use legacy Beta Code, preserved verbatim rather than silently converted into Greek Unicode.
  • The source's rare unresolved legacy entity tokens &acutemacr; and &cj; are retained literally. The original raw XML remains the authoritative transcription.
  • English glosses, cited examples and roots do not alone determine a word's contextual meaning. Missing ancestors in this source do not establish the limit of human knowledge.

Keep the source and the verdict separate

A historical dictionary can preserve useful evidence and superseded analyses at the same time. These records retain their source identity; no parent edge, sound law, first-use date or confidence score is generated from a sentence’s position.
