openprobableposition text
Did French borrow étymon through Latin or directly from Greek?
CNRTL names Latin etymon as the immediate donor; the Académie calls the French word a learned borrowing from Greek. The graph preserves the Latin route as probable, not certain.
resolvedestablishedposition text
Does the word commemorate an abstract concept or a person?
It ultimately reflects a geographic personal name, “the Khwārizmian,” which became attached to transmitted arithmetic.
resolvedestablishedposition text
Does etymologize begin in 1532 or the 1530s?
The reports are compatible at different precision: Merriam-Webster gives 1532 and Etymonline gives the 1530s.
resolvedestablishedposition text
Were the underlying manuscript objects directly inspected?
No. This review inspected dictionaries, concordance metadata, and normalized text surfaces, not the manuscripts behind the three poems.
resolvedestablishedposition text
Do feógean, fiógan, feón, and fión prove separate lexemes?
No. They are presented inside one paradigm or as linked contracted forms. Variation in vowel, spelling, and contraction is evidence about the verb, not a license to multiply headwords.
resolvedestablishedposition text
Does the ninth-century label prove the first use of hazzōn?
No. It is the century attached to the form in one comparative database, not a demonstrated search of every earlier manuscript, gloss, and edition.
resolvedestablishedposition text
Are the family noun kin and diminutive suffix -kin the same morpheme?
No. Merriam-Webster gives the family noun through Middle English from Old English cynn, but derives the diminutive suffix through Middle English from Middle Dutch -kin and Old High German -chīn.

SEARCH IS DISCOVERY, NOT PROOF
EVERY RESULT OPENS A PERMANENT EVIDENCE RECORD.
Matching text only locates a record. It does not raise confidence, settle a dispute, establish cognacy, or turn a source report into direct inspection. Follow the result into its citations and editorial limits.
