Dear Piotr,
Many thanks.
This is pretty much what I agreed on with Laurent, after correcting one mistake in encoding in that the second sense is masculin, and therefore clearly a homonym. I know that hom is deprecated, but I would like to have had a type on sense so as to stress the homonymic nature of the word.
Basnage is fairly consistent in grouping by orthographic word, except when their is a variation in spelling indicating a different word as in his entries for ‘Cane’ (bird) and Cane (plant). Grammar is given as simple abbreviations s. m. for substantive masculin. I am just adding this for the moment as I want to go over this later with specialists of 17th century grammar so as to link the information to current grammatical models.
I am not at the end of surprises with this text as Basnage was constantly experimenting, thereby going far beyond what Furetière had given as entries, which is what makes this such a fascinating dictionary.
Best wishes
Geoffrey
