Word: Anabaptism Part of Speech: noun Etymology: From Latin anabaptismus, from ecclesiastical Koine Greek ἀναβαπτισμός (anabaptismós), from ἀνα- (ana-, “re-”) + βαπτισμός (baptismós, “baptism”) (compare modern Greek αναβαπτισμός (anavaptismós)); cognate with French anabaptisme. See anabaptize. Pronunciation: /ænəˈbæptɪzm/ 1. The doctrine espoused by Anabaptists. Labels: countable, uncountable Example: 1968, Cornelius Krahn, Dutch Anabaptism: Origin, Spread, Life and Thought (1450–1600), Martinus Nijhoff, page 185, Following somewhat the thesis of Vos and Mellink pertaining to the origin of Anabaptism in the Netherlands, J. F. G. Goeters has recently challenged Rembert's approach and conclusions. He points out that the actual practice of re-baptism, or adult baptism, prior to the Münster catastrophe was minimal and concludes that the early reformatory movement of the German Lower Rhine was a popular movement containing humanistic, Lutheran, and spiritualistic-sacramentarian elements. Anabaptism did not stand at the beginning of this reformation movement, according to Goeters, but entered midstream and helped to clarify concepts. It constituted a radicalization of the spiritualistic-sacramentarian movement. Example: 1989 [Addison Wesley Longman], Peter Limm, The Dutch Revolt 1559—1648, 2013, Taylor & Francis (Routledge), page 135, As an organised movement Anabaptism had its roots in Zurich where Conrad Grebel and others began to demand a more radical reformation than Zwingli. The distinctive features of Zurich Anabaptism were: the acknowledgement of no authority other than the Bible; the true church consisted only of the 'saints' who had undergone spiritual conversion (a conviction which led adherents to support adult baptism, a feature which gave the movement its distinctive name); withdrawal of the 'saints' from the secular community (which meant refusal to take part in government and a refusal to obey man-made laws).

Word: glossologies Part of Speech: noun 1. plural of glossology Labels: form-of, plural
Word: glossology Part of Speech: noun Etymology: From Ancient Greek γλῶσσα (glôssa, “tongue; language”) + -ology. Pronunciation: /ɡlɒˈsɒlədʒi/, /ɡlɔˈsɑləd͡ʒi/, /ɡlɑ-/ 1. The science of language; linguistics. Labels: countable, uncountable Example: Erudition has been divided by a German professor into glossology, bibliology and historiology; or a knowledge of languages, a knowlege^([sic – meaning knowledge]) of languages, a knowlege of books, and a knowlege of facts. Example: If all nations spoke one and the same language, much of the time now spent in the study of Glossology, would be saved. 2. The naming of parts of plants. Labels: countable, uncountable Example: A plant in flower, surveyed externally, may be perceived to be composed of a variety of obvious parts, such as the root, the stem, the branch, the leaf, the flower, the fruit, and perhaps the seed; and other parts less obvious, as buds, prickles, tendils, hairs, glands, &c. These, with their modifications, and all the relative circumstances which enter into the botanical description of a plant, constitute the subject of glossology, the details of which, involving the definition of some hundreds of terms, are here omitted; because to those conversant to them it would be of little use, and those who have them still to learn will find it more convenient to have recourse to some elementary work, where most of them are illustrated by figures. Example: I beg leave to differ from you in printing the etymology of names that are from the Greek in English, and not in Greek letters. I think they would answer the end in view much better if they were in Greek characters; it would be far more conducive to a general knowledge of botanical glossology, and a greater stimulus to the student. 3. The definition and explanation of terms in constructing a glossary. Labels: countable, uncountable Example: If the indexed items (E3) are core terms for descriptive glossology (C4), they are underlined, and their definitions will be found in Annex V, in a record indicated by the notation preceding the index term. Example: And in the sanctified, post-exorcist intercourse which leads to conception, Margrethe appears 'obediently', speaking in initiated, divine tongues, interpreted by 'the friends': glossology. 4. The diagnosis of disease by examination of the tongue. Labels: countable, uncountable Example: To those who doubt the value of a well-defined system of Glossology I would say—let them account for the different appearances of the tongue in scarlet-fever and measles: why in the former it is red, and in the latter limaceous, or white; […] Example: He [Benjamin Ridge] professes to have reduced the examination of the tongue for purposes of diagnosis to a system. […] [H]e describes the dyspeptic, febrile, inflammatory, cerebral, rheumatic, pulmonary and cardiac tongue, &c., and he argues that the nature and seat of diseases may be detected and discriminated by cultivating this new science of glossology, even when neither the other physical or rational signs are suffcient for a true diagnosis.
