....when I ran into this bunch of links..

here is a dictionalr of folk-related terms and such .... to be taken with a grain of salt.

It came from this link-http://www.onelook.com/browse.shtml of 'special subject dictionaries'.

which cam from THIS link of dictionaries in general....

which came from THIS site of online texts

which came from this site of digital libraries contained in this page of acedemic references

which came from this new site of specialized search engines

which I got from the main page listed by countries and subjects

which I stumbled onto thru my 2-3 times per week check of this amazing listing of interesting sites on the net.....
