I don't know if we should call it a calque or a semantic loan; depends if the word was coined completely anew or not, I guess. --Barytonesis (talk) 11:03, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
 * I'd say so; is there any way of knowing when the "census" sense fell into disuse? A similar case is ; we say it comes from, but the modern scifi sense is probably really a new coinage that only coincidentally corresponds to a word with a different meaning that had been obsolete for centuries. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 11:15, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
