  TIP (#20 OF 27) :  Since mid-2024, during routine update work, I have been adding subtle bits of previously unused colors to certain SGOL entries, mostly in an effort to add helpful highlights to examples. The palette:
  • "eg": Firebrick underline.
  • "hi": Green thick underline.
  • "hil": Limegreen underline.
  • "hil2": Dark Goldenrod underline.
  • "st": Steel Blue  strike-through 
  •  For a sample of their use, look at INTROVERSION and the three entries that follow it for various combinations of "eg", "hil", and "hil2".
     
      THE PERSONAL GLOSSARY OF JON PAUL SANK  
       In order to understand linguistics conference talks, I began in the mid-2000s to collect linguistics terms for a glossary or dictionary of my own. Wanting a useful conference companion and having decided also to share it, I aimed my design at lightning-fast page loading, common-sense navigation, easy scrolling, and universal compatibility. Pages would be small, simple, and display-responsive. Nowadays, this research-relevant lexicon is more professional-looking, much richer with terms, and more able to render linguistics notations, even while it remains simple and nimble.
