THE TIMELINE ATLAS
JOURNEY ATLAS ↗FORM / ROUTE / BOUND
1398 REVIEWED EVENTSLANGUAGE
IN TIME.
One cross-word chronology for every defensibly bounded form and journey stage—without converting a vague historical label into a fake year.
A reviewed graph bound, not a claim of an earliest human word.
Only stages with directly cited numeric bounds enter this atlas.
Labels remain visible in Journey Atlas, but not parsed into false years.
FILTER THE CHRONOLOGY
WHEN DID THE EVIDENCE LAND?
TWO CLOCKS.
NO FALSE PRECISION.
FORM CHRONOLOGY dates a canonical linguistic form or reconstruction in the lexical graph.
ROUTE CHRONOLOGY dates a geographic or transmission stage in a word’s journey.
They can share an era band, but they are never silently treated as the same kind of claim.
CROSS-WORD CHRONOLOGY / EARLIEST BOUND FIRST
THE EVIDENCE IN TIME
humility
humilitās from lowness to virtue
The same Latin noun spans physical height, social rank, abjectness, and the later positive opposition to pride.
The interval locates cited Latin sense records rather than one datable semantic switch.
AUDIT RECORD ↗intelligentia
Latin antiquity / Late Latin
understanding, discernment
-ista
Latin and Late Latin
person associated with an activity
verbum
Latin grammatical tradition
verb; predicate word
adverbium
Latin grammatical tradition
adverb; a word attached to another word or predicate
etymologia
antiquity–medieval
explanation of a word by its origin
etymon
antiquity–medieval learned use
Latin borrowed Greek etymon before the English learned borrowing.
The wide range reflects Latin transmission, not a single dated borrowing witness.
AUDIT RECORD ↗étymologie
antiquity–medieval Europe
Latin etymologia transmitted the Greek technical noun into Romance learned use.
étymon
antiquity–medieval learned use
CNRTL places Latin etymon between Greek and French, while the Académie compresses the route as direct Greek borrowing.
The wide range reflects learned transmission, not one dated borrowing witness.
AUDIT RECORD ↗etymon
Latin scholarly use
the literal or original meaning of a word
etymologia
Classical Latin–medieval learned Latin
etymology; explanation by origin
logica
Latin scholarly tradition
logic; the logical art
arithmetica
Latin antiquity and medieval scholarship
arithmetic; the counting discipline
-logy
Latin -logia
Greek -logiā enters Latin and remains available to later learned formation across Europe.
The broad transmission interval does not imply one unchanged community, pronunciation, or productivity pattern.
AUDIT RECORD ↗-logia
Latin and learned Latin
learned noun-forming element continuing Greek -logia
hostis
Cicero’s 44 BCE semantic testimony
Cicero explicitly contrasts the ancestral outsider sense with the later armed-enemy restriction.
The year locates Cicero’s De officiis testimony, not the beginning of either sense.
AUDIT RECORD ↗salārium
Roman imperial period
official payment or allowance
calculātor
Latin antiquity and Late Latin
a teacher of arithmetic; a calculating person
humiliation
humiliātiō from humiliātus and humiliāre
The action noun carries lowering, abasement, subduing, and mortification fields in the attested Latin record.
The interval locates the named language stage rather than a first coinage or one datable semantic change.
AUDIT RECORD ↗rēgulāris
Late Latin
regular; according to rule
regulātus
Late Latin
regulated; directed
regulāre
Late Latin
regulate, direct
humiliātus
Late Latin
made low or humble
humiliāre
Late Latin
to make low or humble
humilitās
Ecclesiastical Latin
lowness in a positive moral sense; humility opposed to pride
humiliātiō
Christian and Late Latin
action of lowering; abasement; subduing or humbling through mortification
nescientia
Late Latin
ignorance; lack of knowledge
legibilis
Late Latin
that can be read
īcōn
Late Latin
image or likeness
verbālis
Late Latin
of or relating to words or verbs
UNBOUNDED IS
A REAL RESULT.
Stages without source-backed numeric bounds stay in their complete Journey Atlas route, carry an explicit temporal note, and remain absent here until the evidence supports normalization. The missing point is visible work—not permission to guess.
