Talk:Relic - relict

Relict is used currently in science, esp. biology and geology, as well as in linguistics, for a surviving remnant of a species, ecosystem or language that was formerly more widespread.

Thanks for this, whoever you are! It is helpful if you can tell me - perhaps with a little detail of 'where you are coming from' - so that I can judge how much weight to give your information. In this case, OED supports you, so I'm glad you brought the matter to my attention.

You'll see that a change has been made. I hope it looks ok by you. (You can e-mail us at academicwriting@hotmail.co.uk if you want to continue the conversation.)
