Is creative lineage a thing? Or is lineage just related to families and ancestors? To answer this, I took to Substack to explore the root of the word.

No good photos from my first hike of the year yesterday – so this will have to do. I know my American friends will get a chuckle. Does anyone still use the word dork? The name Dorking is from the Saxon word Dorchingas, and though I can’t find an actual meaning for the word, the place is mentioned in the Domesday Book. I arrived at Dorking station then hiked a mile to the trailhead at an English vineyard (Did you know there was such a thing as English wine?! For Christmas, I was given a gift membership to the @ramblersgb, so I joined the Mole Valley group for a lovely, though brisk, hike that ascended through the vineyard to the Leith Hill Greenway, across Ranmore Common before pausing for a break at Polesden Lacey (a National Trust location). It was an absolutely fabulous hike, and I plan to return in the spring on my own to take some photos! #Hike #Hiking #Trekking #Ramble #Ramblers #Nature #Adventure #HikingAdventures #Outdoors #Trekking #Explore #NatureLovers #Outdoor #GetOutside #Etymology #WordOfTheday #English #Saxon #Words #Word #Language #Etymologygram #ObscureWords #UnknownWords #Linguistics #NewWords #NewWord

I think all three are characters in a short story based in a 1960s London and its soul scene at the time. (This was a Sam and Dave album.) #recordsleeves #obscurewords #1960sbritain
From John Koenig’s Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows, opia feels as if you were peering through a hole in the door of a house, able to tell that there’s someone standing there, but unable to tell if you’re looking in or looking out. #obscurewords #obscuresorrows #humanemotions #emotionaldetox #emotions

Welcome to Words in Progress. 👋 I’m Puja - a self-published author, writer and artist. I’m on a mission to find out what you mean by the words you use. Words in Progress is a multidimensional space to go on this search. Words are subjective, and people are stretching their meanings by how they see the world. Through watching online debates on social media and the rhetoric in society, I found that words are alive, with no set point of meaning. My study has led me to etymology - a search into words, their origins and evolution - a journey beyond borders, conflicts and empires. Subscribe to my free weekly email on wordsinprogress.uk to get a word a week, complete with origins and evolution. Become a paid subscriber to my #substack to get exclusive access to my work on etymology, creativity and all things words.

John Koenig's Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows dropped in here this week, a lovely book of finely drawn definitions: words for feelings that didn't really have names before. Picked out a few here: 'justing', 'giltwrights', and 'the kinder surprise'. Loving those giltwrights - they're completely correct about apostrophes, though. #oxfamshops #oxfambookshops #oxfamgb #charityshopping #thriftshopping #lewes #oldwords #newwords #dictionaries #obscurewords
