Willard -- word #43404 is "goibniu" (just ahead of "paprika") ? I realize
the corpus is from Britain, but just the same, what in the world is a
"goibniu" ? I know I have never seen it in print or heard it either, and
I'm getting up in years). was doing binary chops on the corpus and
stumbled on it -- is it a typo ?)

[Can anyone supply a definition of "goibniu" and explain its etymology? --WM]
