'Word ID', this is the number at which the word or phrase entered
the dictionary.
'Headword' field, this is the slang word or phrase in question.
'Glossary', this is always 'Amfootball', which is an obvious
abbreviation of American Football.
'Grammatical Info' tells you in what way a word should be used.
'Usage' tells you in what way the word is used, this can be either
slang, jargon, dialect, rhyming slang or phrase.
'Etymology' tells you useful information about the origins of the
word, or tells you where an example of the word can be found with a date of
it's recorded first use from that source. Also included in this field are
links to the websites where information was collected from. Unfortunately,
for some of the words and phrases in the dictionary there is no etymological
data, this is because often with slang words it is difficult to find their
origins, because they are mixed up with so many new definitions. For
example, in this dictionary there is a number of references to Urban
Dictionary, however, it is often unreliable, and none of it's data
pre-dates 2001.
'Citation', this field gives an example of the word or phrase in
use, in most cases there are two examples for clarity, but some words or
phrases only need one citation. (None of the names used in the citations
relate to real people, any similarity to people is merely coincidental)
'Pronunciation', in a lot of cases this field is not needed,
however, where needed a phonetical example has been given, for example, the
phrase 'Go for the Jugular' has help with pronunciation of the word
'jugular', shown in this way /jugyoulaa/.
'Keywords'; this last field allows for entries in the dictionary
to be cross referenced with a other words by associating each entry with a
general term. (For more help with 'keywords' go to the search page and look
at the search tips)
