- It is quite easy to cite this from nineteenth-century Bible translations alone: [1] [2] [3] [4] In more recent use it seems that it is more often found in texts by non-native speakers, but use by possible native speakers can be found as well: [5] [6] [7] I wouldn't label this as "archaic", but it might be somewhat dated.
- @Schläsinger X This RFV was unnecessary; its existence in Modern English is beyond doubt. Please check Google Books before nominating words.
