Yes. I have no trouble with changing the definition. But the word 'gay' in single quotes means that the gismu was built using "gay" rather than "happy" as the source word, as a look at reveals. That's a historical fact that cannot be changed. Rather, it should be clearly documented that the words in single quotes are etymologies, not definitions. -- John Cowan cowan@ccil.org http://ccil.org/~cowan You cannot enter here.
