Contextualize · v.0
A cartography of meaning.
Words have ancestors. Meanings have neighbors. Definitions loop back on themselves. This is an exploratory engine for the contextual web of language — its etymologies, its relations, and the recursive way it defines itself.
Etymology
Trace a word through its ancestors — Proto-Indo-European roots, Greek and Latin stems, Old English forms — annotated with the moments each form was alive.
Adjacency
Words live in neighborhoods. Synonyms, antonyms, cognates, and metaphorical cousins — each one a doorway into another ecosystem of meaning.
Recursion
Every word is defined by other words. Follow the chain far enough and it folds back on itself. The Vish engine surfaces those loops as constellations.
