Tar Heel

Etymology
North Carolina was associated with tar (of which it was a major producer) from the 1700s onwards, and residents were (at first derisively) called "Tarboilers" since at least the 1840s; "Tar Heel" is first attested in 1863 in comments by Confederate soldiers which suggest it was already in common use at that time. One popular theory suggests it refers to North Carolinians having tar on their heels to make them "stick", referring either to their reluctance to join the Confederacy, or to their holding ground during battles when other states' troops retreated.

Usage notes
With regard to airlines, is usually distinguished from the more common and exclusively feminine  in colloquial speech, while the gender-neutral  is usually preferred to both in formal contexts. The word "stewardess" is still commonly used in Singapore and Malaysia, but is now dated and considered sexist in the United States. For the sake of brevity, is sometimes treated as a gender-neutral term itself and applied to both male and female flight attendants.

Talk:species

This is still not quite right, but it was exactly this sort of difficulty in defining the concept that helped set Darwin on the path that originally led to Origin.

My understanding is that modern definitions tend to center around the concept of a clade, and acknowledge that the concept of common ancestry is at least as important as deciding exactly when a group is well enough differentiated to be labelled "species".

The concept of species is evidently not clear-cut even today. Darwin's finches, for example have been sorted into species a number of different ways, with terms like "superspecies" "subspecies" and "variety" also being applied. My impression is that this is far from unusual.

In any case, the "interbreeding group" definition appears to be more of a rule of thumb than an official definition.

Disclaimer: I am not a working biologist, and would welcome the input of working biologists

Species not only for use in biology
The term 'species' is not only used in biology. For example, the term is used in nuclear physics to define a particular isotope or nuclide. Although not connected with an evolution or parentage like in biology, I believe the usage is in general similar, and the definition here should be improved to 1) Create a general broadened definition to include all uses meaning a particular type of a category of objects 2) Add appropriate sub-definitions which clearly define its meaning in various areas. Discussion on how to incorporate this idea is welcome. Disputes to the applicability may also be made, but will not be well received as they likely originate from a framework which is too narrow. Particularly welcome would be information about the etymology within science, which may be interesting but is unknown to me. DAID 03:11, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, slightly over-zealous in my first note on this. The definition is already including crystalography.  So I think we want to first make a single broad definition which applies to many different sciences, and then under that heading we should define the uses in each particular scientific field. DAID 03:25, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

DNA
I am not a working biologist either; by college education I was a mathematician & physicist; but then (I just read) so is Carl Woese so here goes. I think the investigation of when a species is not a subspecies is still changing fast but microbiological methods are causing major revision all over the taxonomy. I get the impression that clades are also out of favour again but the three-way tension between DNA similarity, evolutionary path, and phenotype trait similarities will continue. Unsure whether Wiktionary is the place to mention any of this. IPH 22:05, 30 May 2007 (UTC)iph
 * The difficulty here are phenomena like ring species, which indicate that, to some extent, it is in all probability impossible to clearly and accurately categorize living organisms based on the classical notion of species. I don't dispute the usefulness of the concept of a species, but it seems to tell us more about human psychology and intellect than the true nature of things.  One is basically attempting to clearly and distinctly quantize something which is continuous.  In mathematics this has been proven to work, but in biology I think not.  Perhaps not worth a long entry on this page, but some mention of scientifically-demonstrated ambiguity and the information that in fact, species is NOT well defined has a place in a dictionary attempting to define terms so as not to give a false impression to readers/users. Of course you are right that DNA is also not classically related to the idea of a species (as it had not been discovered), and may also help to bring rise to a better definition or understanding to the idea of species in the future. DAID 03:23, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

Change of example
Example wa puma but there were two problems:
 * 1) Latin binomen given Felis concolor was wrong genus; Wikispecies has no species F. concolor in genus Felis!
 * 2) English name of cougar is not universally known to English speakers. Puma says: "The Cougar (Puma concolor), also known by many names including the Puma and the Mountain lion, ..."  therefore it is better to exemplify with a famous, universally known species with only one common English name.

Talk:play

The Spanish entry for the transitive part is wrong; it should be jugar, not jogar.

I don't think 62.137.152.175's change in the definition is accurate. Not that the old def was very good. But in American football they definitely talk about "plays". Perhaps 62.137.152.175's new def is another meaning again but I'm not sure. — Hippietrail 09:48, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)

re geological formation Can somebody give a citation for this usage?

Request for verification
(intransitive) To deal with a situation in a diplomatic manner. Can this possibly be intransitive? What sort of sentence might it appear in? Equinox 16:09, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

 * If we meet with Shakashvili, how will it play?
 * But the definition isn't quite right. More like How should it play? and that is impersonal or avalent. Robert Ullmann 19:26, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

 * I think of the sense used in the cite as applicable in any context (diplomacy, business negotiation, politics, interpersonal relations, entertainment, advertising) where "audience" reaction (one person, many, or mass) matters. It is close to a sense of play out, but MW has go over as a synonym, which is better. (BTW, the entry seems to lack some senses.) DCDuring TALK 19:52, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

 * How will it play in the Midwest?
 * I trusted him, and he totally played me.

 * For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool / By making his world a little colder.
 * The radio station refused to play any of their music.
 * Once again, I played the fool.

(Some of these may be better addressed by expanding existing senses than by adding new ones.) —Ruakh TALK 17:42, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

Copulative
The following sense seems dubious: (copulative) In a game or game-like setting, to maintain a posture of being. Not totally implausible, but as a native speaker, I would argue that a person who uses a sentence like "Play nice, children," really intends for the children to play (in an intransitive literally meaning engaging in playful, amusing activities), rather than merely "maint[aining] a posture of being."--71.111.229.19 01:24, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't like the sense either. How do we analyze the expression "play nice"?
 * Has "play nice" become an idiom? I haven't yet found any dictionary that calls "play nice" an idiom.
 * Is "nice" a slang/colloquial adverb? (It collocates with "make", "dress", "play", and "piled" in usage recorded at COCA.) Random House Unabridged shows "make nice" as an idiom.
 * What senses does "play" have when used with words usually considered adjectives. Some words not shown by MWOnline as adverbs that collocate with "play" (at COCA) are "dead", "dumb", "nice", and "hurt", "good", "bad", and "great". "Dead" and "dumb" fit with the other copulative sense. The last four are slang adverbs mostly used in sports.
 * This leads me to believe that "play nice" is best analyzed as an ordinary sense of "play" used with a slang/colloquial adverb "nice". DCDuring TALK 02:50, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the feedback. I'm not a professional linguist, so I'm beginning to realize how complex the question is. I think there's a very fine line between creating an additional sense for "[being] . . .in game or game-like setting" vs. participating in a game (i.e. playing in a game). At the same time, although you may disagree, I'm increasingly wondering whether the phrase itself ("play nice") might not be an idiom of some sort--or at the very least, there is an idiomatic or figurative quality to play in "play nice"...For instance, this phrase is applicable outside what is literally a game (hence "game-like setting" above), so for example a political commentator might criticize two partisan foes for obstructionism or bad faith, and then rhetorically chide them, "Play nice..." But admittedly that needn't make "play nice" itself an idiom. Either way, it seems somewhat likely that a specific sense of "play" might be appropriate for such figurative uses....but it still doesn't solve the question of whether an independent or existing sense should be applicable to the literal action of children engaging in amusing activities. --71.111.229.19 10:13, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm just an enthusiastic amateur with a few reference works. DCDuring TALK 02:49, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree with you, DCDuring. The CGEL, on page 567, mentions "treat me nice" as an example of a song lyric using a nonstandard flat adverb. (I think I disagree with your comment on one minor point: hurt in "to play hurt" does strike me as an adjective, not a slang adverb; but that doesn't seem to affect your point, since it doesn't have to make "play" copulative, any more than "come" and "leave" have to be copulative in "he came angry, but he left satisfied".) —Ruakh TALK 02:26, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I still don't understand the verbs that take adjective complements, but aren't copulas vs. copulas. DCDuring TALK 02:49, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

 * So, uh, don't quote me on all the details of this, but my understanding is roughly as follows:
 * Broadly speaking, if a verb takes a single adjective-phrase complement, then it is a copula. (But this doesn't apply to things like "I've tried angry, I've tried conciliatory, but nothing works with him", where angry and conciliatory are nominals.)
 * Sometimes, as in the examples I gave above, a verb can be followed by an adjective-phrase adjunct that modifies the subject of the verb. I'm not sure what licenses this — whether it's a property of the verb, or what — but doesn't require (allow?) the verb to be a copula. I also don't know if the adjunct "attaches" to the verb, or how that works. (But I note that this construction is sometimes possible even if the verb doesn't have an explicit subject, as in "Playing hurt, though dangerous, is common", so presumably on some level it does attach to the verb phrase. Conversely, I note that it's "he came in angry", not *"he came angry in", and "to play football hurt", not *"to play hurt football", so its attachment, if to the verb phrase, seems to be relatively high.)
 * Adjuncts are generally distinguishable from complements by their greater syntactic flexibility; consider "He played/seemed hurt" vs. "although he was hurt, he played/*seemed", or "he left/looked satisfied" vs. "he was satisfied when he left/*looked".
 * I don't know of any general-purpose tests for this, but hopefully it's intuitive enough once you have the general idea.
 * —Ruakh TALK 03:17, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
 * At User:DCDuring I have some lists of copulas. I am still not sure about all of them having copulative senses. DCDuring TALK 04:56, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Just to make sure I'm understanding, regardless of whether sense #10 (copula for "Contrary to fact, to give an appearance of being") is correct, we're still debating whether sense #11 is copulative? --71.111.229.19 07:49, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I think so. DCDuring TALK 10:25, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

issues
K kisses 13:48, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) there are leftover translations for the deleted sense discussed above
 * 2) regarding sense #4 (intransitive) "I've practiced the piano off and on, and I still can't play very well.", isn't this the same as "i still can't play [it] very well", ie transitive?

 * Re: #1: Are you sure? I don't see them …
 * Re: #2: If you're asking if it's transitive, then the answer is "no". If you're asking if it's the same as transitive sense #7, then the answer is "yes". (Senses #3 and #6 are also the same.)
 * —Ruakh TALK 15:23, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

RFV discussion
Rfv-sense: (copulative) In a game or game-like setting, to maintain a posture of being.
 * Play nice, children.
 * I had added this more than a year ago. An anon expressed skepticism at Talk:play. I have added nice "(colloquial) Nicely", and incorporated "play nice" as a usage example. DCDuring TALK 11:36, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

 * IMO this is not different from the usual definition of play. Walk straight can mean "walk while straight, i.e. with a straight back", but I don't think we should have a separate sense of walk for it. The adjectives/adverbs (nice, straight) should have such senses, as you say you've added, DCDuring. —msh210℠ (talk) 20:09, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

Sense removed. (I hesitate to say "RFV failed", because "play nice" is in clearly widespread use; the question was whether this was a distinct sense of play.) —Ruakh TALK 15:25, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

play as a noun referring to playing instruments
Is play a correct word for the activity of playing an instrument? Or is it included in the meaning no 1 here?
 * Example: Does song, dance and play have to mean only singing, dancing and playing games (amusement, children's playing) or can the play part refer also to the musical activity?90.190.225.121 12:09, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Play (sports)
Something that should be discussed is how 'play' is only used for things like basketball, baseball, football (etc) but not things like swimming and martial arts. A lot of Asian non native speakers have trouble understanding this and often saying "I play swimming."--Bluesoju 02:06, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

Animal play
Two references—I have the second with me: There has been a lot of controversy, in scientific circles post-19th-century, regarding the use of anthropomorphic terminology when discussing (non-human) animals and animal psychology. But in the 19th century, using human concepts to describe animals was normative. The pendulum has swung back somewhat. But only somewhat.
 * Robert Fagen Animal Play Behavior (OUP, 1981)
 * Gordon M. Burghardt The Genesis of Animal Play (MIT, 2005)

I presume that animal play has been described, in English, going way back. (Whether using or some other term, like  or  or, I cannot say.)  One could argue that this does not need a separate definition: it is really just an extended metaphor. In particular, was used in the writings of several 19th century naturalists, including Darwin, regarding ants, fireflies, and crabs:

But between Freud and Skinner, the ethologists turned away from such language completely. It is only in the late 20th century that anthropomorphisms returned. But now they come with as many scientific safeguards as possible, so as to describe what are supposed to be objective, testable notions. These notions certainly deserve separate entries.

It should be noted at the outset that is perhaps the most difficult of all these notions, at least to define. The study of play itself, even among humans, is generally not taken seriously, and animal psychologists who take up the study generally find themselves marginalized. Part of that is simply the investigators stumble at the starting gate, so to speak, not quite certain how to report what they are seeing. Fagen's mammoth work takes about 60 pages to arrive at a definition, Burghardt gets it done in only 30 pages.

With these caveats in mind, I will be adding Burghardt's condensed definition. Burghardt himself states there are caveats specific to the condensed version. Choor monster (talk) 17:02, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

"Waiting for Godot" is playing on Tuesday
Which of our definition covers the above use of "play"? --Taejo (talk) 18:24, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

 * The closest sense is "(transitive) To act or perform (a play)". We're missing a sense that covers intransitive usage. Dictionary.com has "to be performed or shown: What's playing at the movie theater around the corner?", and also has some other senses we seem to lack: "(of an instrument or music) to sound in performance: The strings are playing well this evening" (contrasted with "(of a phonograph, radio, recording, etc.) to give forth sound: The radio played all night") and "to give performances in, as a theatrical company does: to play the larger cities". I'll see about editing our entry. - -sche (discuss) 19:25, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

play for sympathy / play for laughs
The OED has entries for these two. There may be more. I think we should be able to cover them here ("to handle a situation in a specified way"?) but am not quite sure how. Example from a book: "He played the lord of the manor, all right, but, it must be added, he usually played it for laughs." Equinox ◑ 02:52, 18 September 2014 (UTC)

RFD discussion: August–November 2018

RFV discussion: July–October 2019
Ethology sense, "defined" only by this unattributed phrase in quotation marks: "Repeated, incompletely functional behavior differing from more serious versions ..., and initiated voluntarily when ... in a low-stress setting." Since our first two defs already deal with human play and animal play I think this is redundant; at the very least it needs a rewrite. Equinox ◑ 22:41, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
 * See the talk page for where it came from. It strikes me as an attempt to codify a concept rather than describe usage. The talk about how one author took 30 pages to arrive at this definition, while another took 60 pages to arrive at theirs tells me that this isn't something that anyone has in their mind when they use the word in running text or speech. Chuck Entz (talk) 23:53, 26 July 2019 (UTC)

RFV-failed Kiwima (talk) 20:54, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

In play
Hmm. Can we improve the definition of verb sense 10 so it doesn't use the word "play"? I just linked the phrase "in play" since we have an entry for that. But I don't think sense 10 is directly based on sense 9, anyway (this would be, I believe, the only situation where using the same word in it's own definition is acceptable). So if we could avoid using "play" in the definition, that would probably be preferable. (Alternatively, is verb sense 10 perhaps not even a separate/valid sense??) - dcljr (talk) 14:17, 26 November 2019 (UTC)

 * I note that you "corrected" it to be about more things than just fishing. It might be only about fishing. Equinox ◑ 14:21, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Hmm. Fair enough… But even if so, I think the version without the second comma still works better than the version with it (which I parse as essentially equivalent to: "To keep in play (as a hooked fish) in order to land it."). In any case, it definitely needs rewriting; the exact way it should be rewritten just depends on whether it's "" or not. I assume this should be taken to the Tea Room…? - dcljr (talk) 05:35, 29 November 2019 (UTC)
