  TIP (#12 OF 27) :  When I can't find a definition for a term, but I can find a good number of examples of it being used, I rejoice and proceed to make you an "Easter egg": a reverse-chronological list of the examples. To see what I mean, look up ADJUNCTION SITE, DIALECTAL COLORING, KIDS THESE DAYS, or MOVEMENT CHAIN.  
  THE PERSONAL GLOSSARY OF JON PAUL SANK  
   In order to understand linguistics conference talks, I began in the mid-2000s to collect linguistics terms for a glossary or dictionary of my own. Wanting a useful conference companion and having decided also to share it, I aimed my design at lightning-fast page loading, common-sense navigation, easy scrolling, and universal compatibility. Pages would be small, simple, and display-responsive. Nowadays, this research-relevant lexicon is more professional-looking, much richer with terms, and more able to render linguistics notations, even while it remains simple and nimble.
