openboundaryposition text
Can aguacate be securely pushed deeper than āhuacatl?
Not from the reviewed sources. The institutional dictionaries reach the Nahuatl word and its historical witnesses but do not establish a deeper lexical ancestor.
openboundaryposition text
Is *lˤra the final word on the ancestry of tea?
It is the final reviewed reconstruction in this dossier, not a declaration that no deeper hypothesis exists. No unique deeper form is promoted until a competing analysis is encoded with direct evidence.
openproposedposition text
Can the movement family be pushed securely beyond *meue-?
Not from the reviewed evidence. Etymonline publishes *meue- for the movement root, but this dossier does not promote an older form without specialist comparative review.
openprobableposition text
Does tipi simply and literally mean “they dwell”?
The reviewed evidence safely derives thípi from a dwelling root; suffix analyses vary in how they label the final morphology, so the dossier promotes “dwelling” rather than one viral literal sentence.
resolvedestablishedposition text
Did Old English frēond have one regular plural?
No. OED records endingless mutated and unmutated plurals, re-formed frēondas or frīondas, and rare vowel-final analogical forms.
resolvedestablishedposition text
Is kind simply kin plus a final d?
No. Kin continues Germanic *kunja- from a *-yo- formation, while kind continues noun *kundjaz and adjective *kundiz from a *-t- formation. They are deep cousins that meet at *ǵenh₁-, not one modern word built by adding d to the other.

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.
