What does SUPRA mean

Above, used in legal and academic writing to refer back to something cited earlier. It is Latin taken into English unchanged.

What are OUPHE and OUPHS

Old words for an elf or goblin, both variants of oaf. They are archaic and turn up mainly in Shakespeare.

What is a TUPIK

A sealskin tent used by Inuit peoples in summer. TUPEK is an alternative spelling and both appear here.
