03Origin & word formation

Evidence for the origin explanationMedium
The definitions in the body of the 2001 collection were compared. The collection also includes previously used words absent from dictionaries. The original older articles re-quoted there were not separately opened, and neither the first use date nor the extent of spread at the time was verified. Although these share combined residential and work use, the source’s respective scopes of small scale, venture founders, and rental functions were preserved.
