I am playing with this feature.
Spurious Terms
I had this idea that there are a few "spurious terms" that have no Earthly analog and that are not references, citations or phantoms. This means that there are essentially UNDEFINED terms in the encyclopedia.
As I find them I'll add them here for reference:
- glugfeffil (Looliers) - a tool or artifact?
- verapsnik (Looliers) - Some sort of religious items?
- Barolo (Adlorst Vinifera) - Some kind of wine?
- Rioja (Adlorst Vinifera) - A libation of some kind?
- trefk (in a scholarly comment in Aelfants) - Presumeably a rude word
- obith (Awal Shrinkage) - Some property of mass?
- calvados (Baron Claude Lloyd Albert Smallwood) - Possibly a proper noun. Maybe a plant or animal of some sort.
- glitterthought - (Battle of Barnum Stones) - some sort of narrative?
- Quezloos - (Bobby Shwarmph) - A unit of money or exchange
- tonsoral art (Brothers of the Lantern) - surely not art on one's tonsils. is it?
- gargarational (Brothers of the Lantern) - Your guess is a good as mine
- honng/hongg (Brothers of the Lantern) - Your guess is a good as mine
Defined in context:
- from Battle of Barnum Stones, Awal Shrinkage:
- smilch - N. the light produced by Theoalchemy or Technomancy.
- smilching - V. To poduce light through Theoalchemy or Technomancy.
- smilcher - N. A traditional producer of light via smilching.
- from Battle of Barnum Stones:
- canoralists - N. Traditional producer of ritual music.
- canoral - N. A form of ritual music.
- from Betrothal March
- tri-menth - N. One-third of the betrothal march.
- from Bureau of Forgotten Knowledge:
