glomax

Any takers? Needs formatting and putting in some categories if OK. SemperBlotto (talk) 20:17, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

It's not Old English; nor Middle English Leasnam (talk) 20:25, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

It's a dialect word, and an alternative form of clomax. Leasnam (talk) 20:27, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

I've created clomax and labelled glomax as an alt form. I found only one cite for clomax, and it isn't all that great. None for glomax, although there are many for the trademark name GloMax. The fate of these two are now in the hands of due process. Leasnam (talk) 20:52, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

I'm wondering if that "clomax" cite is a misprint for "climax". SemperBlotto (talk) 10:50, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

Possibly. It was an obvious misprint in several others I found, but this one kinda sorta made some sense (?)... Leasnam (talk) 17:13, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

@SemperBlotto, yeah I think you're right. I've removed the cite. The word is now citeless Leasnam (talk) 19:51, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

RFV-failed, sadly. Because I am convinced that this is a word, although an obscure dialect one. Kiwima (talk) 23:38, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
