I have been scanning this a bit for some fun slang and terms to bring Duskvol to life. It has some real interesting names for different occupations and the like.

That’s pretty groovy! Reminds me of an old book I have called, “Word Origins and Their Romantic Stories” by Wilfred Funk, Litt. D. Sadly, it isn’t a full dictionary or encyclopedia but gives interesting backgrounds on a lot of common words circa 1978.
EDIT: They have it on the same website you linked, and on Open Library.
