Why does the online OED show precipitous declines in new word entries ...
Well, it's very easy to rule out the first option (since “entrys” is not a word). Let's forget the prepositional phrase (“of N word-to-be-decided”) for now. How would you phrase the sentence with varying numbers? “0 entry selected” or “0 entries selected”? (Ignoring that many style guides will tell you spell out the numeral), the latter is correct. “1 entry selected" or “1 ...
Using a simple trick, the online OED provides counts of new word entries from its earliest recorded years (1400 CE) to the present. New Word Entries are defined to be the year a word first appeared in written form in English language books and publications, not the year its vernacular usage originated.
Column heads and stubs [entries in the leftmost column of the table] must match one another in style across a series of tables. Spelling, capitalization, punctuation, abbreviations, and symbols must likewise be regularized.
I always get a little flustered by the question of how to punctuate the end of each of my table entries, where the table is part of a longer document primarily composed of traditional sentences but...
None of the other definitions in the MW entry for index —and none of the six entries for index as a noun in AHDEL —indicate a "usu" plural form of index as between indexes and indices.
Duplicate Data: Entries that have been added by a system user multiple times, for example, re-registering because you have forgotten your details. Duplicated Data: Someone has deliberately taken a precise duplicate of the data - or a proportion of it - maybe for backup or reporting purposes. It may have been accidentally added to the original.
Urban Dictionary includes entries for "m-bye" in the relevant sense from , and . The latter entry claims that the expression is "Common colloquialism in rural western United States." As with anything else in Urban Dictionary, the claims about origin are not objectively reliable—since they rest on bald assertion—but at least these entries establish that "m-bye" has ...
The two sources that have entries define it differently Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia defines it as reception Burton's Legal Thesaurus, 4E defines it as acquisition As Mr. Disappointment mentions there is a word (receipt) that is more common and more clearly defined, so unless you have a very good reason to use it I would leave it alone.
Be that as it may, both Walter Skeat (in 1882) and Ernest Weekly (in 1921) have entries in their etymological dictionaries for submerge but not for submerse, and Weekley expressly links the word submersible to submerge.
Is there a difference between "sugar cane" and sugarcane? Is sugarcane wrong? What is the gramatical rule for joining two names like that? I have found 13.500 entries on google for sugarcane, but ...
According to the entries for till and until in the Online Etymology Dictionary, until would have derived from till: until = und + till, where und was an Old English word meaning "as far as, up to".
The mainstream dictionary entries seem to be either for "opp" meaning "opportunity" (as in "business opp", "job opp"), or as an abbreviation for terms such as "opposite" or "opus". So I think the hip-hop slang is probably a separate coinage.
Because the dictionaries have entries for the same thing you can decide whether or not you make entry's plurality agree with the total number of entries (2 entries - one for each dictionary) or the number of distinct entries (1 entry - one for the subject, cum grano salis).

Side Note: Err is an old-fashioned word meaning ‘make a mistake’. I have been stuck in a mental slump, attempting to figure out which definition (in the listed dictionary entries) is the one and true underlying definition of said phrase.

The 10-0 reward being a 50k voucher is silly. Going flawless is the hardest thing to do in MLB the show yet its the least rewarded? I know the devs are all about the reddit posters and the "casual" players complaining that online, top players, and streamers get all the best rewards but in MLB 26 that is furthest from the truth.
As it turns out, the MLB the Show franchise is the single video game series that does not work with T-Mobile Home Internet. You just get a “challenge failed” message every time.
