Of course you are quite right, Carl. There is a distinction between the
two in common parlance, though, or at least I have noticed such. With a
few notable exceptions, dictionaries tend to be little more than lists
of glosses with a few usage notes.
By the way, my apologies for sending directly to you a missive that was
intended for the B-Greek list. I hope I created no misunderstandings
through my clumsiness.
