دين

Etymology 1
A historically conflated term derived from multiple layers of phono-semantic matching:
 * Initially stemming from, where in Arabia it took specifically the foremost connotation of obligations, duty, what is expected or owed; hence also the sense of a monetary debt along with that which is owed to society ethically.
 * Cognate terms in other Semitic languages also came with a more developed legal sense, rulings, a set of obligations, a law code; these senses were bolstered semantically borrowing from, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, which likely had their specified development from . Another possible layer still is the term 🇨🇬 which is a term of uncertain origins; potentially an early 🇨🇬 borrowing, at least semantically, or natively derived from , a form of.
 * The sense of religious creed or a system of religious rules is borrowed from, which developed from , which underwent influence from 🇨🇬 when the incorporated its Semitic kingdoms. Developing also from , a term already having a predecessor with a religious sense in , which is possibly akin to 🇨🇬, whence . This possibly derives in part under the influence of , developing from the 🇨🇬 legal sense; religious obligation to deities, the system or conduct of the priesthood regarding divinities.
 * The Qurʾān and later Islamic scholarship adds an additional layer of phono-semantic matching, melding the native significations with the connotations imparted by the languages of their neighbors, both from the Semitic family and those not.

Welcome
Hello, and welcome to Wiktionary!

If you have edited Wikipedia, you probably already know some basics, but Wiktionary does have a few conventions of its own. Please take a moment to learn our basics before jumping in.

First, all articles should be in our standard format, even if they are not yet complete. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with it. You can use one of our pre-defined article templates by typing the name of a non-existent article into the search box and hitting 'Go'.

Notice that article titles are case-sensitive and are not capitalized unless, like proper nouns, they are ordinarily capitalized (Poland or January). Also, take a moment to familiarize yourself with our criteria for inclusion, since Wiktionary is not an encyclopedia. Read our Transwiki process if you plan to work on importing information from Wikipedia. Don't go looking for a Village pump – we have a Beer parlour.

Finally, you can link Wikipedia pages, including your user page, using pagename,, or. Please do not create redirects to Wikipedia pages, though. They don't work.

We hope you enjoy editing Wiktionary and being a Wiktionarian. --Dvortygirl 16:24, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

short-shrift
Hello. Is this commonly used as an alternate spelling of short shrift? If so, we should give it an "alternate spelling" entry. If not, we should delete it. Equinox ◑ 22:23, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Hmm. It looks as though it might have a different meaning in your text: something that dooms the one who takes it — perhaps the shortest weapon, the short straw? (Not, as at short shrift, scant consideration.) As for "the hyphenated version probably [predating] the open version", I think that only tends to apply in compounds like type-writer and ice-cream where two nouns are being joined; short shrift is an adj and noun, like green apple, so I wouldn't ever expect to see it hyphenated in the sense that we have documented. Equinox ◑ 22:35, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Having read it again, I think you're right: if they are captured, they are sure to receive scant consideration and the (hangman's) rope. I'll see if I can find two more examples on Google Books. Equinox ◑ 22:50, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Take a peek at this: it's a search of all the books Google has scanned from between 1800 and 1900 (because the hyphenated form seems dated) with the exact phrase "the short shrift", hyphen or no. The only one I spotted in the first five or so pages with the hyphen was the book you were reading, so I'm inclined to regard it as a quirk or error rather than an attestable alternate form. If you are able to dig out two more, we can keep it, but it looks like hard work! Equinox ◑ 22:54, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

 * We don't use redirects very much; see . The reasoning is that alternate spellings are (in themselves) words. It would be a bad idea to have colour as a redirect to color (or vice versa) because it would suggest that one was merely an error or mis-encoding of some sort and not a word in itself. Bots and scripts would also be likely to miss them. Equinox ◑ 23:05, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

 * BTW, the grounds for attesting a word for inclusion are at WT:CFI. It is generally enough to find three unrelated citations from published books or Usenet newsgroups. Equinox ◑ 22:47, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Wiktionary talk:French frequency lists (Belgium, finance)/1-1000

What is the source of this list!? Some of the entries are ridiculous (Jones, for heavens sake!), some are typically belgian (a French person won't have heard the word Delhaize even once) Here is a much more reliable source, a list compiled by the French Ministry of Education: http://eduscol.education.fr/D0102/liste-frequence.htm
 * Ditto. Ridiculous list: n, d'un, l'Europe, n'est, qu'il... to name but a few.

Different view: This list is not entirely without merit. From the point of view of someone learning French (me), the most popular conjugations and contractions can be a useful item to know the frequency thereof. There wouldn't be much point in just reproducing the ÉduSCOL list. And French does not just have to be spoken in France. - RA.

 * I can understand d'un, but 'dans' and 'Dans'. Also, how did Belgique get so high?
 * I believe the list was compiled by a Belgian Newspaper. Hence, l'Europe, and Belgique.
 * I find this list very interesting (for people I taught french to) but yes, it could be better. For example, the word "call" is English only, not French (see http://fr.wiktionary.org/wiki/call). Maybe a confusion with "cal" but I don't use that word more than twice a year... Eiku

Technical issue: the links from french terms points to en.wiktionary.org instead of fr.wiktionary.org causing pending links.

Misspellings
This list is pretty much done now Royale could be considered a family name, other than that, all the remaining red links are contractions (le + état = l'état) or bad spellings and/or bad caps. Is it wise to remove these bad links? Mglovesfun (talk) 09:58, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Cleanup
A short summary. Removed are:
 * Contractions which are not words, such as l'état (le + état), d'office (de + office)
 * Non proper nouns with capital letters, which probably come from being the first word of the sentence (Maison instead of maison.
 * Words with missing accents or ligatures (soeur instead of sœur)

Left in:
 * Proper nouns which may never meet CFI, but that's not really my choice to make
 * Words from other languages; business French uses an enormous amount of English, and  are both French nouns listed in many dictionaries.
 * Initialisms.
 * Anything that I don't know or was not sure of was left in, better cautious than wrong.
 * Infinitives of reflexive verbs (like s'agir) but not conjugated forms (s'agissait)

--Mglovesfun (talk) 15:01, 31 July 2009 (UTC) (updated 17:41, 31 July 2009 (UTC))

Rename it
This list should be renamed Belgium French frequency lists instead of French frequency lists. Also this list seems doubtful. BEF and USD are in the top 200 hence countries like Belgium and France. A quick overview of the list seems to indicate that the sources are from newspapers. it would be very interesting to have the source of this frequency list!
 * I agree. Interesting list, but we should call it "French frequency lists (Belgium - 20??)" The year is crucial, since Sabena, for instance, is now a defunct company. Ideportal 20:54, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

As far as frequency goes
As a French native vocabulary frequency fan and professional translator 30+years, this list is valuable for common words, reliable, well done, 99%. For proper names you should know that it is centered on Belgium, but that's a detail, really, for such a level of quality. 09:54, 20 February 2016 (UTC)09:54, 20 February 2016 (UTC) Eric Paroissien
 * This list is certainly not reliable. How could « marché » be the 62nd most common word, and be more common than « donc », « sans », or « si »? This raises serious concerns about how the data was gathered… Sam Hocevar (talk) 16:22, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

Wiktionary:Featured word candidates (comment)/guidelines

This is proposed guidelines for nominations at WOTD. These are under development.

Suggestions on how to nominate

Words that are selected as Word Of The Day (WOTD) are intended to demonstrate the best of Wiktionary's definition and to help readers improve their vocabulary.
 * If the word is not defined in the wiktionary (which means it will be displayed as a redlink) then it probably belongs at Requested entries instead of at WOTD. (Remember that Wiktionary links are case-sensitive.)
 * The word should be unusual enough that it adds to readers' vocabularies (the word the may have an interesting entry but it isn't really an addition) but not so odd that people can't use it in common converation. People trying to build their vocabulary will try to use the word during the course of the day.  If the word were antidisestablishmentarianism could you use it in a sentence even if we told you what it means?
 * The word should be useful. Words that have only extremely technical, obsolete or esoteric meanings are hard to use in conversation and so will generally not be selected.  Remember that people have four different vocabularies: the words they say, they words they understand when they hear them, the words they write and the words they understand when they read them.  Technical terms pertaining to language and writing may be considered, since this is an on-line dictionary.  Also, words that are obsolete but occur commonly in standard English literature, and may be encountered in reading, may be selected as WOTD entries.
 * Avoid profanity. Again, people will try to use the word during the course of the day.  It should not be a word that will offend people or that you'd be embarrassed to use in front of your boss or your mother.  Wiktionary defines profane words, in part so people know not to use them in polite company; it doesn't recommend these words as things that should necessarily be said.
 * Words that have already been used as WOTD, or that are closely related to such words, will be ignored as nominations for a period of time.
 * Abbreviations, initialisms and symbols are unlikely to be selected.

juolukka

Etymology
(probably the origin of the form seen also in, ), from , which is further related to 🇨🇬, suggesting earlier.

The forms of this word vary widely, but the forms in Finnish, Ingrian and Votic generally follow the pattern *jooCukka (extended *jooCuk'as in Votic). In Finnish, besides -l-, -m-, -p- and -v-  are found, in Ingrian  and Votic  only -m- (also in Ludic with a different suffix, ). All aforementioned Finnish forms also have variants ending in, which matches the forms seen in Veps , Estonian and Livonian. There are more Finnish variants too with different suffixes.

The forms with -l- (only in Finnish) are likely by contamination with, while -v- (*-b-) is simply the weak grade of -p-, leaving only the question of whether -m- or -p- came first. According to Koponen (1991), both likely originate from association with words derived from, specifically and. In that case, the likely originates from the -u- in the latter word and was later generalized by analogy. Semantically the berry is often associated with intoxication: compare, ,.

So, I downloaded all of Project Gutenberg.

Yes, I had to buy a new external hard drive first.

The raw frequency count is at Frequency_lists. That lists words in their rank order. Unlike other possible rankings by "headword" this lists the exact inflection or conjugation's rank...much like Wiktionary has separate entries for each form of a word.

The following lists indicate words that were undefined in Wiktionary, as of whichever XML dump backup date this was re-run. Since the backup is done monthly, you should not expect to see this updated more than monthly. I will try to add new "runs" toward the top of this page, and keep older runs below.

Talk:deleted scene

Sum of its parts?
Does this term mean more than the sum of its parts? Isn't it simply a scene that which was deleted? –Gunslinger47 04:41, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

deleted scene
The definition looks an awful lot like a scene: that is delete:. It appears to have been inserted to advertise a WP article. would be an admirable replacement. DCDuring TALK 21:03, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak keep, but only because this seems confined to the context of cinema. If the term can be shown to apply to theatre or other situations where a scene could be cut, then I'd agree with deleting it. --EncycloPetey 22:51, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment. That's a good point. The phrase most often refers to a scene in a movie or TV episode that is filmed but that is later removed (during post-production), not to a scene that is removed during pre-production and is never filmed. That's why it's mostly confined to cinema: that sort of change is less common in television, and is impossible in a play or novel or whatnot. That said, I think part of the reason for this is that people don't usually talk about scenes that are deleted in other ways: usually you talk about a deleted scene if it's shown during the credits or is in the director's cut or on the DVD or in the trailers or whatnot. In the rare cases that an otherwise-deleted scene does get discussed, the phrase "deleted scene" does sometimes get used. For example, the play The Crucible was originally performed with an Act II, Scene ii that was removed early on, and shows that people do sometimes use the phrase "deleted scene" in reference to it. (Only once at, though.) For another examples, writers will sometimes release "deleted scenes" from their novels (scenes that didn't make the published book) on their web-sites, as a sort of teaser or bonus for fans; examples of that are here and here. But one could argue that all of these non-cinematic uses are still just extensions of the core cinematic use. —Ruakh TALK 18:39, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, but actually — any restrictions on "deleted scene" regarding the type of deletion may actually be restrictions on "delete". Does a novelist or playwright or director or editor "delete" a scene, or do they "remove" it or "kill" it or "edit it out"? Maybe scenes just don't get "deleted" until post-production. If so, then it doesn't seem like the collocation "deleted scene" is actually an idiom, though it may be a set phrase. —Ruakh TALK 18:48, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep and improve. Very often deleted scenes are available as a bonus feature on a DVD, and in some cases (usually in comedies) they are played as a background to the film credits. Therefore, a deleted scene is not only a scene that is deleted from the film and never again seen, but is sometimes a scene deleted from the body of the film, but made available in another form of media. bd2412 T 17:22, 3 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Why not just improve the WP article, if it needs it? The deleted scene clearly must be deleted from something that has scenes by basic implicature. Do we have any evidence that the term is attestably used carrying all the encyclopedic baggage now in the entry or that would be added by "improving" it ? Sometimes purported improvements seem to be meant to add to the meaning that users actually ascribe to the words in favor of an expert's opinion as to what the words should mean. DCDuring TALK 17:57, 3 July 2011 (UTC)
 * According to Wikipedia, "Deleted scene is a commonly-used term in the entertainment industry, especially the film and television industry, which usually refers specifically to scenes removed or censored from or replaced by another scene in the final "cut", or version, of a film (including television serials). It is occasionally, but rarely, referred to as a "cut scene", but due to the usage of "cut scene" in reference to video games, the preference seems to be to call it "deleted" instead. A related term is "extended scene", which refers to scenes (such as fight scenes or montages) which were shortened for the final version of the film. Often extended scenes will be included in collections of deleted scenes, or also referred to as deleted scenes themselves". The variations in the meanings of these terms is significant as a matter of lexicography. The fact that this is covered in an encyclopedia article along with other information such as controversies over deleted scenes or parodies of deleted scenes does not detract from the fact that the term has a set meaning in a specific industry, which is the kind of information that belongs in a dictionary. bd2412 T 01:34, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. < class="latinx" >Ƿidsiþ 17:01, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. Video games could have deleted scenes too. Sum of parts basically. I've been thinking similar thoughts about good ending: and bad ending:. Equinox ◑ 19:27, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I seem to hear "deleted scenes" being used to refer to any additional content stuffed onto a DVD. Even if there are no actual scenes which were deleted from the film included.  I am not sure how pervasive that usage is though. -  19:42, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

Talk:well, I never

Move to Well, I never!
I suggest moving this entry to Well, I never!. The exclamation mark and initial capitalization are vital to the idiom. Nothing can proceed the "well" in a sentence (except, possibly, an ellipse), and putting anything after "never" changes its meaning. Exclamation is also required. Even if you say it without raising your voice, it must still be said with emphasis. Oh, and the comma is just proper grammar. Thoughts? –Gunslinger47 04:53, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

 * The convention for expressions is to use a lower case initial letter and no final punctuation because those parts can vary. Consider these examples:
 * (opening a gift box that has shocking contents) Thank you for the thoughtful... well, I never!
 * Well I never, ever, ever!
 * Does that explain adequately why the convention is lower-case and no trailing punctuation? Rod (A. Smith) 08:08, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * The exclamation mark still seems to be present invariably, but I suppose that's why the word is defined as "an exclamation of great surprise". I concede on the capitalization and trailing punctuation.  However, the comma should be used according to proper grammar.  Google shows about a 50% inclusion rate for the comma, but it should be no surprise that not everyone speaks with perfect grammar.  Perhaps this article should be moved to well, I never, with a redirect from well I never? –Gunslinger47 23:44, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Since the two forms are pretty closely split in Google, which is more common in print? Rod (A. Smith) 07:03, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

 * The comma is present in most print occurrences. As I said, including the comma is proper grammar, so it makes sense that publications would include it, due to the editing process they go through.  Currently, well, I never redirects to well I never.  Should it be made the other way around? –Gunslinger47 18:25, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I've moved it, Gunslinger's arguments seem persuasive, and I doubt if anyone will strongly object. Kappa 23:40, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Americanism?
I note this is labeled »dated, US, Canada«, but it seems to have been more prevalent in British English; in the Google Books corpora, it occurs about twice as frequently in the British English corpus as the American English corpus at any given point in time. cf. American English vs British English.
 * Eh, I’ll just change it. Vorziblix (talk) 18:50, 14 February 2016 (UTC)

Talk:blimp

Previous rfc tag didn't have a reason; however, it seemed like the etymological entry was clearly overboard, so I went ahead and added that as a reason. Also, I wonder whether this can be an eponym if the word sense existed first? Jeffqyzt 15:47, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Well the etymology section is making the mistake of confusing homonyms and senses. A single word cannot have two etymologies but there can be two words spelled the same which each have a distinct etymology. Such appears to be the case here so the article needs to be split by having two level-3 etymology sections and moving the parts of the rest of the article under their appropriate etymology heading. When this is done all subheadings must be increased one level to make them "children" of the etymology section. — Hippietrail 22:36, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

"However, most historians believe that it is onomatopoeia for the sound a blimp makes when thumped." This sentence does not make onomatopoeic sense. The sound that a blimp makes when "thumped" can only be "thump." This should be changed to say "...the sound a blimp makes when blimped." - 96.230.95.70 03:33, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

Etymology
Via, from (zero-grade of ) +. The latter is seen whole in -timus (e.g. –,  – , assimilated  – ). The original form seems, however, to be (cf.  –, Gothic ), with acquired t from the paradigm -ter- – -timus- (e.g.  – ), and is cognate with 🇨🇬 (source, via metanalysis, of English ). By various sound changes (e.g. *-isemos > *-ismos > -īmus) superlative grades in -īmus, -ēmus etc. (e.g., ) are also found.

The expected alteration of *-(o)ism̥mos to *-erimus is nowhere to be found. The -ss- may be an example of expressive lengthening of the *-s- or influence from specific forms as pessimus and endings in -errimus and -illimus.

Usage notes

 * Stems in -ro- and -lo- instead take the suffix and  respectively (e.g. *polkros  > *polkrisemos > *polkr̥semos > *polkersimos > ).
 * Some adjective nouns have irregular superlative grades from other roots or compositions (e.g. –,  – ,  – ).

cooking with gas

Etymology
From the suggestion, heavily advertised in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, that stoves using natural gas as a fuel cook more effectively than, for instance, wood-burning or electric stoves.

Phrase

 * 1)  Functioning particularly effectively; achieving something substantial.
 * 2) * 1983,,  (short story)
 * She said, 'What are you doing? Tell me, I want to know.' The blind man said, 'We're drawing a cathedral. Me and him are working on it. Press hard,' he said to me. 'That's right. That's good,' he said. 'Sure. You got it, bub. I can tell. You didn't think you could. But you can, can't you? You're cooking with gas now. You know what I'm saying? We're really going to have us something here in a minute. How's the old arm?' he said. 'Put some people in there now. What's a cathedral without people?'
 * With the updated software, I was really cooking with gas. I got the project done in half the time.

 * Grammatically, a use of the "-ing" form of + the prepositional phrase "with gas". Together with a form of  this forms a progressive verb predicate. Only rarely are other forms used in this idiomatic sense.

Etymology 3, where the word means a male falcon. This def appears in Webster's 1913, but nowhere else that I can see (except Dicts using Websters material).

Widsith 12:22, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Websters "marks" just about everything with a question mark. It is an artifact of how it was digitized -- as far as I can tell, the question mark replaces the pronunciation key. (Some entries use (#) instead.)  It doesn't express doubt of any kind, as far as I can tell.  —Muke Tever 21:43, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
