As a bonus hidden feature, I always think Ngram Viewer is interesting when you want to get a rough idea how popular certain words are. Today, a colleague used the word “banjaxed” and I thought “that’s a very archaic word”. I think I had only heard it once and that was in a song (ALESTORM – Shipwrecked). It seems Alestorm used it at the peak of popularity.
