I think I mentioned it earlier, but you may be interested to learn that many entries in OED are over a century out of date. Many entries?  Over a hundred years out-of-date? Please do tell me these words that a hundred years out-of-date? Any entry that says the word is archaic is an entry for a word that is out-of-date.  Dictionaries do not drop words that are no longer in use (out-of-date) until no one is interested in what they used to mean.

Please do tell me these words that a hundred years out-of-date? What I understand is that there are entries that have not been updated in a hundred years. Some of the words may have gone out of use, others may still be in use today. If a word is still in use with pretty much the same meaning as it had a century ago there will have been no priority for updating its entry in the dictionary.

The most likely place to find the oldest unrevised entries, I think, is among the more obscure words close to the beginning of the dictionary, in the sections originally published before 1900.

The most likely place to find the oldest unrevised entries, I think, is among the more obscure words close to the beginning of the dictionary, in the sections originally published before 1900. The cutoff of originally published more than 100 years ago takes in everything from A to the middle of R. However, They've had two opportunities to revise those early entries: once around 1930 for the original supplementary volume, and again around 1965-75 for the OED Supplement, which also incorporates the original supplement.  In the OED2, those revisions were taken into the main text.  But as Peter says, if the word is still in use with pretty much the same meaning, they won't have made it a priority.

In that case, If a word is not in that Dictionary, it is probably not there for a reason! <SNIP Yesterday I happened to be looking up a word in the dictionary on my Pocket PC, so when I was finished, I decided to look up unmoderated . It *was* there. BTW, according to Help About, the dictionary is Concise Oxford English Dictionary 11e , (c) Oxford University Press, 1982, ..., 2004.

Well, I just pointed one out in another thread.  Peter Duncanson quoted this definition: #     bumper, n.1 #     5. a. [f. sense 1 of the verb.] The buffer of a railway carriage #        (U.S.). And I noted that it was most recently cited in 1864 and railway cars in the US haven't *had* buffers since knuckle couplers were adopted around the end of the 19th century. (I haven't checked the OED Online to see if there's been any update to that, but it's unlikely, given that it's in the B's.  I was just going by the OED1 and the OED Supplement, which together make up almost all of the OED2.) No. There has been no update to that. The entry is fine as it stands. If someone is reading about railway cars in the US before knuckle couplers were adopted and comes across bumper the dictionary will tell them what it means.
