The Webster dictionary does what you’re talking about
how is a "meaning" any different from just a common usage
There is common usage and there’s an exact definition
a ceritan grojup of words describing a defined thing
a physical or metaphysical objekt
All words in the Oxford English Dictionary have definitions
what is the "exact definition."
what about webster
depends on the word?
why did oxford get to be the arbiter of "exact definition'
i dont know that word
The Webster dictionary is not a scientific dictionary
all that I'm saying is that there's no one true authority
omg
smh
lmao
gg
rebel
which is why I think saying words have "usages" is more accurate than saying they have "meanings"
The Oxford English Dictionary is just one scientific dictionary that just so happens to be the most popular one
no
just no
just go wa
ok, but what if there's a disagreement with webster?
which is the "meaning"/
?
The Webster gets updated to the common usages of words
what about any other scientific dict
It can change
what about asghjapoguah
Why isn't it a sexual orientation
curious
pedophiles think those dances are sexy
it is
I think we're agreeing but we're just struggling to agree on language
No
yes
You don’t understand that there are different types of dictionaries
Just look it up
