Not sure how to start this, but I've been pretty bored lately, and I've been wanting to read the English dictionary. All I've found were the ones where i have to search the words individually, but i want to read one like how I'd read a book where it gives you all the words with their definitions. An app also works, it doesn't really matter as long as i can read it.
I am writing my BA thesis on the origin of color names and how they have changed over the years (in terms of spelling and pronunciation). In order to do this, I need notes from the OED: Forms, Origin, Etymology and information concerning the meaning as a color name. Some I was able to look up without a subscription (my university or library does not have it; I live in Poland). I would be grateful if users with access to the dictionary would send me information on the following words:
Purple
Brown
Maroon
Ginger
Ecru
Ochre
Chartreuse
Emerald
Teal
Cyan
Mauve
Violet
Magenta
Fuchsia
Rouge
Tawny
Umber
Ivory
Sable
Pewter
I know there is a lot of it, but I will be extremely grateful for any answer. Thanks a lot!
