diachronic

From a synchronic or a diachronic point of view?

Similarly purely diachronic protections have problems too, and often aren't well implemented.

It’s reasonable to want to maintain plausible deniability about having suffered diachronic misfortune.

Instead of the protagonist suffering what the author calls a "diachronic misfortune," maybe in having no plans for the rest of the night, maybe in suffering a cooperation loss vis-a-vis the spouse, etc., they honor the sunken cost.† I'd probably argue it's guaranteed.

You don't need a "head branching parameter" to explain many head directionality tendencies, just the general human tendency to pay more attention to elements at the edges of statements and the process of diachronic systematization.

I presume a lot of this is down to the different markets for the different dictionaries: the OED is a far more academic work, with its diachronic focus, when most people when looking up the meaning of a word don't care about etymology or archaic or obsolete senses.

Certainly no one has taken advantage of them to do diachronic studies of the language or literary criticism, as has been done for Wolofal [1] ...Digitisation of all these kinds of Arabic-script manuscripts would be somewhat easier if the Arabic block in Unicode had more combining marks, the way the Latin and Cyrillic blocks have done for pretty much all the various tails and tildes and slash marks.
