But I generally have respect for the fact that professional lexicographers have made judgments about includability words. OneLook includes idiom dictionaries and glossaries which are highly inclusive. Introspection by amateurs is a poor substitute for such judgments, let alone for some corpus-based evidence. We still don't have as many English lemmas as AHD, RHU, and MWOnline. We might have as many as WNW. If you subtract our flaky and erroneous entries, we are farther behind, despite our alleged advantages.

The ''Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English'' glosses "funny feeling" as "strange feeling"<sup>[http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/feeling_1 ]</sup> — which may be evidence of SOPness, insofar as one sense of ''funny'' is "strange". (Indeed, DCDuring recently added a "have a funny feeling" usex to [[[[funny]]]] under just that sense.) To this I'll add that "odd feeling" and "weird feeling" also seem to have roughly the same sense. There's something funny/strange/odd/weird going on here, but maybe it's some figure of speech rather than actual idiomaticity. —[[User: Ruakh |Ruakh]]<sub ><small ><i >[[User talk: Ruakh |TALK]]</i ></small ></sub > 20:36, 28 June 2011 (UTC) == [[go on]] == == [[go on]] == You are receiving this email because you subscribed to this feed at blogtrottr.com.
