I'm a big fan of keeping an "etymological dictionary" of my
vocabularies; when I make the web pages for Bauhinese and Bahasa
Vijaya I plan on having etymological dictionaries online. As I
create the vocabulary for Singala I'm careful to note where each
word comes from. I fell in love with etymological dictionaries very
young, so maybe that explains why.
Cheers,
Eamon
