A Glossary of Terminology would be a useful addition for those interested in all things Fountain Pen.Newbies and the not so new (like myself) would be better able to understand terms like cursive, oblique, italic and the many technical terms used to describe nib styles, writing styles,filling methods and pen parts etc. Or perhaps provide a link to one which already exists online.

Whippet,
I suggest you and other interested to take a look to
this post.
It contains links to external resources but even a list of "FPNism" or "ebaysm" that you are likely to meet living in the pendom

.
Cheers,
