Task #14: Inputting song_and_dance_man’s outstanding research, Part 1 [UPDATE: song_and_dance_man volunteers for this task]

Two and a half years ago (no kidding), song_and_dance_man was the first person to really help out with the dictionary, and researched the origins of several words. He emailed me his results, but to my great shame I never “had the time” or got around to inputting his results into the various dictionary entries.

Luckily, because I’m an organized person, I still have his original emails. Each of the two emails contains several bits of information, some of which may have already been implemented (I can’t remember). Anyway, I’ll make a separate post out of each email.

Whoever tackles these (including possibly s_and_d himself!) needs to just plow through the research and input it into the relevant dictionary definitions.

Here’s Part 1:
