Things that can have the word ’record’ associated with them, but primarily are related to the word ’glass’ and a ’record’ can be observed in or with them - in the case of ’track record’, the ’glass’ would refer to a mirror-like surface and ’track record’ will be cleared once in a ’looking-glass’, when winning, thus also being reflective of a Root term.

TOM-TOM, BILLY GOAT, MOCKINGBIRD, FIELD MOUSE

Things that can be named after animals

TALKIE, DAN DAN NOODLES, RICH TEXT, WATER CLOSET
