No, let's not italicize.

@ps2270 https://github.com/ps2270 - please advise: do you italicize foreign languages in the glossary? Including Latin? This is what we do for ed comments, but I'm not sure about glossary. See, e.g., Bol armeni

gallicized spelling of the Latin "bolus armeni" (armenian bole)

@ps2270 - the ending of this entry seems more like an ed comment than a glossary entry. I think we either need to remove the last sentence about Prevost or add more context: Inhonorificabilitidinitatudinibus

a literary word, essentially meaning "dishonourableness." Similar word "honorificabilitudinitatibus" used in Shakespeare’s <i>Love's Labour's Lost</i> (Act V, Scene I) and many other sources. Also found in dictionaries from the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Although the trick also appears in Jean Prevost (54v-56v), he does not use this term.

The editorial comment in place only says this, so I actually think it would be a much better fit as an addition to this comment: https://edition640.makingandknowing.org/#/folios/34v/f/34v/tl

my suggestion, if we want to keep Prevost:

... Also found in dictionaries from the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. On fol. 34v, it is used in a sleight of hand trick as "abracadabra," and although the trick also appears in Jean Prevost (54v-56v), he does not use this term.

Good points. ed comm:

i.e., abracadabra. Also used in literature, essentially meaning "dishonourableness." Similar "honorificabilitudinitatibus," in Shakespeare, Love's Labour's Lost (Act V, Scene I) and other sources, including late fifteenth- and sixteenth-century dictionaries. This trick appears in Jean Prevost (54v-56v), but he does not use this term.

in the glossary, just include on fol. 34v, used in a sleight of hand trick as "abracadabra." Found in fifteenth- and sixteenth-century dictionaries meaning "dishonourableness."

I didn't format correctly, see glossary below. You know how to format ed comm (and glossary, so revise if I don't have it right)

@ps2270 https://github.com/ps2270 - the entry for "Refoulouer" (modern french: refouloir) simply says "rammer" (v) What does this mean? It is not a verb as found in the OED or common online dictionaries, and a quick google search does not help elucidate either. If I cannot figure this out from our own glossary, I feel we should provide a more complete or clear description
