Really fascinating. Is anything comparable possible for etymonline.com (which, as far as I know and can tell, is the best online etymology resource) ?

Wow amazing work.

I tried parsing wiktionary once and gave up in frustration.

I open up your code to see the magic and this instantly caught my eye.

> import mwparserfromhell as mwp

Perfect lol.
