They even swapped rubber mats for artificial turf and managed to have enough space to properly separate the stations for social distancing. The Prairies are a great place to live because they have a lot of soil that prevents grass from being washed away. We crouched in the tall grass and goat brush, listened, and seconds later we heard a horse sniffing clearly. The only caveat: Asprey recommends buying only butter from grass-fed or pasture-fed cows. At the same time, mussels provide nutrients that promote grass growth. The remains of the oldest known bed of grass discovered in South Africa`s border cave lie on ashes from previously burned litter, according to archaeologist Lyn Wadley of the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg and colleagues. Middle English grass, Old English græs; similar to the grass of Old High German, Old English grÅwan grows Everywhere, cattle were sold for a trifle, because there was no grass on which they could feed. As they passed the track, bullets sprang from the tall grass and pierced a fuel tank. A tugboat sits incredibly high on the shore, hidden by tall grass, a broken oil rig hangs over the nearby water. We sit with her separately in the grass of her apartment complex. So far, the most talked about Green Friday hot spot is Denver`s dispensary, The Grass Station. Finally, I went back to Wiktionary – which I already knew about but had avoided because it`s not properly structured for analysis. That`s when I came across the UBY project – an amazing project that needs more recognition.
The researchers analyzed all of Wiktionary and other sources and brought them together into a single, unified resource. I simply extracted the entries from Wiktionary and threw them into this interface! So it took a bit more work than expected, but I`m glad I held on after the first mistakes. Join our community to access the latest language learning and assessment tips from Oxford University Press! Currently, this is based on a version of wiktionary that is a few years old. I plan to update it to a newer version soon, and this update should bring a bunch of new word meanings for many words (or more precisely, lemma). The dictionary is based on wikimedia`s amazing Wiktionary project. I started with WordNet, but realized that many types of words/lemma were missing (determiners, pronouns, abbreviations, etc.). This prompted me to examine the 1913 edition of the Websters dictionary – which is now in the public domain. However, after a day`s work to put it in a database, I realized that there were far too many errors (especially in the markup of part of the speech) for it to be adapted to the type of word.
Unfortunately, with the current database running this site, I have no data on the most commonly used meanings of ~term~. I have ideas on how to solve this problem, but I need to find a source for “sensory frequencies.” I hope there is enough information above to help you understand the language part of ~term~ and guess its most common usage.

Special thanks to the contributors of the open source code used in this project: the UBY project (mentioned above), @mongodb and express.js. I was particularly interested in James Joyce, Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Günter Grass. For those interested in information on this site: This is a side project that I developed while working on the description of related words and words. Both projects are based on words, but have much bigger goals. I came up with the idea of a website that simply explains the word types of the words you`re looking for – just like a dictionary, but focused on the language part of the words. And since I already had a lot of the infrastructure from the other two places, I thought it wouldn`t be too much work to set it up.
