Quite a workout. All done, but curious which group 6D fits.

Been through the myth & neither seems to apply.

Hi there,Syzygy! If I remember rightly 6d was Psy, which is a kind of m, not s!Must say I only finished today with assistance, & didn't even really bother then with all the ramifications...
P.S. Hope my diary extracts reached you OK!

...in other words, it has nothing to do with the myth! I didn't know it in that sense, either. Just shows!

Thanks GK. Got your tour.

Re 6D, still can't quite relate it, other than a spirit, so it almost seems to fit the "s" category, but the preamble implies "m", if taken in the order of the phrase.

Do you have a reference?

Never mind. Just found it in Britannica.
Totally missed def 4. in Chambers, several times!

(A bit late, but I've only just got up here, to fog in the valleys & orange snow on the P. just 30 miles away!): yes, it was completely new to me --- exists in French, too, with é at the end! For people vain enough to want to see their whole length with a twist of the hinge!How's your weather there?
