Extract
- Merriam-Webster (
merriam-webster.com/dictionary/tizita): HTTP 404 — no entry. - English Wiktionary (
en.wiktionary.org/wiki/tizita): HTTP 404 — no entry. - English Wikipedia: has a genuine, on-topic dedicated article ("Tizita," see
wikipedia-tizita.md) — unlike teranga, toska, and ya'aburnee, the bare title does not resolve to an unrelated page. - Collins, Dictionary.com, Cambridge, Oxford Learner's, and the OED were not attempted this session (standing fences apply to several of these already; time was spent on the sources above instead) — not confirmed either way for this word.
- Net result: tizita shows no confirmed adoption by any major English-language general dictionary checked this session, but does have genuine (not mismatched or absent) English Wikipedia encyclopedic coverage — a distinct pattern from teranga/ya'aburnee (both dictionary- and encyclopedia-absent) and closer in shape to komorebi's "no dictionary entry, but does have real tertiary coverage" pattern, though komorebi's own English Wiktionary page has no English section while Wikipedia's tizita article is a substantive, dedicated page.
