sameness of meaning is not transitive
Here's a very good site that contains over a thousand words with their World of Warcraft specific meanings. This is good real world evidence of the kind of thing Mark Wilson talks about in "Predicate Meets Property." In many cases one wouldn't say the meaning of the word has changed, but also one can imagine an inconsistent evolution where one also would not have said the meaning has changed.



Cool! We should attach this to the book's website eventually.
