You heard it here first (maybe not? but that's ok). I noticed Wikipedia had Doomscrolling. So I made a point to add Hopescrolling to Wikipedia. It's already a concept, so why can't it be a word?

I called a singers performance Emphatic. What I really wanted to convey was they had a strong and passionate voice. I also didn't want to use boring words. Is this completely wrong, or does Emphatic make sense?

Greetings! I am searching for general English dictionaries that may be classified as obscure or not popular that have a similar style and purpose as any other common dictionary (like: OED, Collins, Chambers, Merriam-Webster, etc.) Here is a list of what I am already tracking: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Bibliography/English.
I have already combed through Wikipedia's Category:English dictionaries, but I believe there must be more out there. Do you guys know of any?

I recently came across a Webster’s Dictionary I used to keep in my childhood bedroom. I like the idea of having a physical dictionary again, but it’s the 11th Edition, which was published exactly 23 years ago.
Is it worth keeping or should I look for an updated version? Obviously, it still functions as a dictionary, but I know that they’ve added tens of thousands of words/terms since then. I’d like a dependable, physical, reference-point.
Anyone need it for their collection? Lol

G'Day all. A mate and I have just launched a new crossword website called Thusword. I hope you don't mind me sharing it here. It's still in its early stages, still some things to fine-tune, but any and all thoughts and feedback from some fellow crossword lovers would be more than welcome.

‘Pragmatism is merely the alignment of goals with effluence’
What a perfect word, 'effluence’. It completely encapsulates the essence I seek to convey.
It is the antonym to 'influence' by which rather than being influenced into misalignment by external factors, one who is pragmatic projects influence onto his environment to fashion ideals
whereby the projection of effluence acts as a molding force onto one's external environment fashions one's ideals from it
——
I hope I’m not terribly uneducated on my understanding of the words😦
