I asked about the meaning of 'plexity' within the context of 'Those M&D
words' investigation. I still have many unknown words in my notebook and
hope to get back to them in the near future. The procedure is simple:
Webster's Dictionary (Why OED is unavailable online for free? The biggest
Spanish online dictionary www.rae.es can be accessed free of charge, btw.) -
Google - P-list (last hope). I couldn't enjoy M&D properly because of all
those words, somehow it turned out to be more demanding linguistically than
GR, the irony of it: while preparing for my first reading of M&D I read
Tristram Shandy as the sample in the period language, as it turned out it
didn't help a bit.
