Has anyone cited Google #NGrams slash does anyone have ideas of how to do it? I'm using APA, and it's for a throwaway "the term gains popularity around XXXX" comment.
My first thought is to follow the Merriam Webster citation format, but that hinges on using the word as the web title and like how do I even approach that with NGrams. I do expect to cite NGrams more than once, so I guess I need a specific title? Ughhhhhhhhhh
@queerterpreter I’m sure I remember doing this but I’ll have to go see; it might not have been good, of course!
@queerterpreter https://read.dukeupress.edu/american-speech/article-pdf/89/1/4/395555/ASp89.1E.1Tagliamonte_Brooke.pdf Hm, in this one it’s footnoted but not cited per se.
@JeremyNeedle Iiinteresting, that might end up being my approach too 
@GramrgednAngel I did find this already, but the comments don't actually answer the citing question. Thank you, though!
@queerterpreter Have you looked at how Garner handles it in his Modern English Usage guide? The last two editions have used Ngram data. I'm not near my desk at the moment, or I'd look it up.
