Directory 1. Michael Quinion, Dictionary of Affixes Message 1: Dictionary of Affixes
Date: 05-Oct-2008 From: Michael Quinion <editoraffixes.org> Subject: Dictionary of Affixes E-mail this message to a friend I've created a site that contains the text of ''Ologies and Isms'', the dictionary of affixes that was published by Oxford University Press in 2002 but which is now out of print and whose copyright has reverted to me: http://www.affixes.org The site contains all 1,250+ entries from the book, heavily cross-indexed and illustrated by more than 10,000 examples. Alphabetical and thematic indexes and a search facility help visitors to find what they are looking for. My intention is to enlarge and expand the dictionary as time permits in the hope that it will prove a permanently useful online resource for students and those generally interested in language. I hope also that it will prove a companion to my long-running World Wide Words site. Your comments and criticism, both of style and execution, will be most welcome as personal communications to me at the address below. -- Michael Quinion editoraffixes.org Linguistic Field(s): Lexicography Read more issues\|LINGUIST home page\|Top of issue
