[Dixonary] Rnd 2994 VICARIANCE Results
I was going to play the word VICARIAD which is on obsolete version of
VICARIANCE but I decided that I might get away with a definition that was effectively defining itself by itself "the existence of vicariant forms" - I will admit that despite my training I did not know this word - the idea that different forms may arise on either side of a geographical barrier is well known to me but that it was defined by this word was not.
