    10. Once topic information has been researched and recorded in a line diagram, it can be turned into an informational paragraph. Read the paragraph below about Noah Webster. Notice the close relationship between the diagram on the previous page and the paragraph. Sample Paragraph Noah Webster, an American author and lexicographer, lived from 1758 to 1843. Lexicology is a branch of linguistics concerned with the signification and application of words. Just as Mr. Webster’s work yielded the dictionary that bears his name, modern words have their own history and are the product of other languages; the source language of a word is known as its etymology. Lexikos, which comes from Greek, is the source of modern word lexicology. It is also the source of lexicon, more commonly known as a dictionary.
