LingoSources
Every word below links to the reference entries the text was written from. A source note is added where it helps: it separates what a source documents from what is a reasoned observation about the language. A memory aid is not a historical origin, and where an origin is uncertain the entry says so.
Attribution
Material adapted from English Wiktionary (via Kaikki.org) is used under CC BY-SA 4.0. Other entries are written from the dictionaries, encyclopaedias, news reports and primary documents linked on each word. Definitions, examples and fun facts in the app are written for Lingo; they are not copied from the sources.
Where a source is listed by domain only, no single page covers the whole entry and the link goes to the publisher. Where we could not find a reliable source, the word says so instead of naming one.
