Furthermore, the preposition can be used chiefly in the literal sense of a filled container, and  can be used chiefly in figurative senses:.
 * If the noun has an additional adjective, then in addition to the alternative constructions, the genitive is still used: . If an apposition is used, the cases of both nouns usually match:.

Pronoun

Etymology 2
From.

Noun

 * 1) age

Etymology 1
From. Presumably existed in Old Korean, but cannot be ascertained because Old Korean pronouns were written with Chinese logograms that obscure the pronunciation.

It has been suggested since the 1950s that the basic Korean pronouns, , and (> modern ) were all formed from the same etymon via ablaut, which appears to have once been an extremely productive process in Korean, at some very ancient stage. Given the very limited data on prehistoric Korean, this hypothesis cannot be proven for sure either way.

Possibly cognate with 🇨🇬; if so, generally assumed to be a Korean loan into Japanese given the scarcity of Ryukyuan cognates.

Pronoun

 * 1) I, me; the first-person singular plain (non-polite) pronoun

Despite the deinition, eminent also seems to have come to mean "forthcoming", or "very soon", as in "eminent release". --User:70.96.133.64

 * Should it be a usage note, listed as a homophone, or both? --Connel MacKenzie 18:19, 21 May 2005 (UTC)

 * Hmm.. It should only be a usage note if it's a common enough mistake, and I've never encountered it before. Similarly, it should only be noted as a homophone if a standard dialect (or enough nonstandard dialects) pronounce these the same way; in mine, they don't sound the same, so I don't know. I'll hold off writing pronunciations for them until this can be determined. --Wytukaze 20:06, 22 May 2005 (UTC)

Talk:freedom of speech

I have rewritten the article
I have rewritten the article, leaving in the original content.

Personally I feel that the article (as it was before and as I have left it) begins to be more suitable for an encylopedia than a dictionary: the definition perhaps should be restricted to the first paragraph which attempts to DEFINE FoS rather than discuss it.

"An expression referring to the right to speak, or otherwise communicate, what one wishes without fear of harm or prosecution."

If others agree, perhaps the article could be curtailed, possibly checking Wikipedia to see if any of the deleted material should be added there.

213.208.107.91 22:30, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
 * I agree with above comments and have shortened definition to a single line. Added wikipedia link which will provide more details than should be available in a dictionary. Changed it to phrase, rather than expressionexpression.  Hope others agree. --Dmol 22:30, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Deletion debate
Perhaps an "only in" template for this encyclopedic content. DCDuring TALK 06:32, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Weakish delete, quite sum of parts but a good list of translations would make the article useful. Mglovesfun (talk) 09:44, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep I think if you were to simply guess what it meant you could reasonably guess wrong; so it's not simply sum of parts. For example is it about the freedom of a religion to do something or the freedom of somebody to hold a religion, clearly the latter, but you wouldn't necessarily know that.Wolfkeeper 13:05, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak keep, unless we're going to delete freedom of speech, freedom of the press, etc. --EncycloPetey 03:24, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Happy to meet the suggested condition. Adding more freedoms that have no place here. They all seem like WP material. An only-in entry would help reduce the likelihood that we would keep getting entries from well-meaning contributors. I would be happy to see translations on only-ins if that would make translators happy. DCDuring TALK 04:03, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't see how such translations could work, since there is always the possibility of multiple senses (though perhaps not in the cases currently under discussion). I could see linking these to an Appendix on freedoms where the Translations would be given. --EncycloPetey 04:07, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * All the cases so far have been to single articles at WP, not dab pages, AFAICT, but, you are correct: that need not always be true. DCDuring TALK 04:13, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep as specialist terms, idiomatic, etc. Mglovesfun (talk) 20:08, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Kept all, consensus. Mglovesfun (talk) 14:29, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

Possible senses

 * 1) Loose talk; unguarded speech.
 * 2) The right of a member of a legislative body to speak freely in the meetings of that body.

I am not sure whether all are distinct from the point of view of a dictionary (rather than an encyclopedia). DCDuring TALK 01:17, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

invented the term
I think I invented this term in about Feb, 1984 at the university of Auckland, NZ. We had to hand in our masters theses in March and everyone in the department was freaking out. One day in the common room I said 'it's crunch time' and no-one knew what that meant, because I was trying to combine 'it comes to the crunch' with the concept of the critical time before an important event. I explained. People seemed to like it. Within a few days it had spread throughout the department and then I heard it on the campus and then later in general use in society. A year or so later I heard it on TV.
 * Not likely, since the term predates 1984. The term appeared in 1978 and 1979 in New York Magazine, for example, and I've found a 1958 quotation as well. --EncycloPetey 04:51, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

cat's-paw

Etymology
From +. In most senses, due to a resemblance of shape. In its senses as a pawn to another's interests or analysis, variant of earlier, derived from European tales of a monkey (attested as early as 1456 but sometimes misattributed to the 16th-century monkey of Pope Julius II) who used a sleeping puppy or cat's foot to rake hot chestnuts out of a fire, taken as a metaphor for rulers' ill use of their subjects. Now usually understood in light of Jean de La Fontaine's 1679 fable of the "The Monkey and the Cat" (sometimes misattributed to Aesop), in which the monkey fools the cat into removing the chestnuts through flattery and promises of shared reward. The cat removes the chestnuts one by one, burning his paw while the monkey eats each in turn. A maid then enters and chases them both away. La Fontaine's moral concludes that princes should not endure real losses for mere flattery from their king.

Noun

 * 1) A paw of a cat.
 * 2)  Someone who acts in another's interest,  unknowingly or through trickery.
 * 3) * 1836, Charles Richardson, A New Dictionary of the English Language, s.v. "Cat":
 * Cat's-paw, common in vulgar speech, but not in writing.
 * 1)  A minor breeze that ripples the surface of a body of water.
 * 2)  A twisting variant of the lark's-foot hitch which forms two small bights used to hook a pair of tackles to a rope.
 * 3)  Someone or something that comes down quickly upon a victim in the manner of a cat's paw.
 * 4)  A small crowbar with a handle at a right angle to a blade with a V-shaped notch, principally used by carpenters to remove nails.
 * 5)  A metal set of claws worn over the hand or wielded in the hand used to remove skin and flesh.
 * 6)  A supervisor whose reliance on a subordinate's analysis is so complete as to render him or her liable for the subordinate's animus or other misconduct towards a third employee.
 * 7) Any of several species of North American freshwater mussels of the genus, especially.
 * 8) Any of several species of Australian bloodworts of the genus, especially.

Faustian

Etymology
From the surname of the German alchemist and magician Johann Georg Faust ( or 1480 – c. 1541). According to medieval legend, Faust made a contract with the Devil, exchanging his soul for unlimited knowledge and worldly pleasures. Purported tales about Faust’s life first appeared in print in an anonymously written chapbook, Historia von D. Johann Fausten (1587). The story was then particularly popularized by two plays, ’s The Tragicall History of D. Faustus (first published 1604) and ’s Faust (published 1808 and 1832).

Adjective

 * 1) Of or pertaining to Faust, especially in the sense of being willing to abandon one's principles or values in order to pursue knowledge, wealth or other benefits.

Thanks for your help this evening, during the vandalism flurry. In the future though, please do not restore the moved pages, as you were. Instead, try to move the vandalized page back to its original location. This has a better chance of retaining the edit history. Last I checked, non administrators have the ability to move a page back ("over redirect") as long as the page names match. Once there is edit history, the page must be deleted before the other page can be moved back.

 * Actually, somebody else created that template. Having experience on the English Wikipedia, I fully understand that it can be very confusing. Stevey7788 21:49, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

nonchalance
Stevey, In case you're wondering, I just deleted "nonchalence" because there is already an article under the correct spelling "nonchalance", which seems to capture all the ideas in your article. By the way, we're all curious where you're getting so many great words. Care to fill us in? --Dvortygirl 20:29, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Poll on formatting of etymologies
I would like to know your preference as regards the use of "<" vs "from" in the formatting of etymologies in Wiktionary, whatever that preference is. Even explicit statement of indifference would be nice. You can state your preference in the currently running poll: WT:BP. I am sending you this notification, as you took part on some of the recent votes, so chances are you could be interested in the poll. The poll benefits from having as many participants as possible, to be as representative as possible. Feel free to ignore this notification. --Dan Polansky 10:51, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Vote on formatting of etymologies
There is the vote Votes/pl-2011-02/Deprecating less-than symbol in etymologies, which would benefit from your participation, even if only in the role of an abstainer. Right now, the results of the vote do not quite mirror the results of the poll that has preceded the vote. There is a chance that the vote will not pass. The vote, which I thought would be a mere formality, has turned out to be a real issue. You have taken part on the poll that preceded the vote, which is why I have sent you this notification. --Dan Polansky 08:28, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

Burmese
Hi,

In case you're following your page, I wonder what's the source for the Burmese words in Appendix:Swadesh lists for Tai-Kadai languages. In particularly, the word ဢၢၼ်ႇ (ʔaan2) - to count. The online resources in Burmese are extremely scarce. My Lonely Planet phrasebook has another word, which they romanise as "yedeh", can't type in Burmese, sorry, it looks like ရေတယ်, if I entered it correctly. --Anatoli 11:18, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Hmong Swadesh list
Since the Swadesh lists seem to be your project, just an FYI that I added IPA transcriptions to the Appendix:White Hmong Swadesh list and upgraded it to Template:Swadesh list 207 pronunciation. I have zero knowledge of Hmong and just used the chart on Romanized Popular Alphabet. If anything seems amiss, feel free to edit. Gus Polly 21:18, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

Xhosa
Hi Stevey7788,

About a decade ago I had the pleasure to teach in south africa for a while and learn some Xhosa. I also found a partial Phuthu/Xhosa Swadesh list and an English-Xhosa online dictionary and composed a Swadesh list @nl.wikt. I don't know if it interests you, but thought I should let you know. nl:Gebruiker:Jcwf Jcwf 21:48, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Sino-Tibetan wordlists
I noticed you made some nice word lists, for example for proto-Ersuic. Can I request that you also add attested forms. It is difficult to judge the correctness of a reconstruction without seeing the supporting data. I am already grateful for the work you have done, but including attested forms would make it even more useful. Tibetologist (talk) 11:28, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
 * These appendices serve as quick, handy indexes for now, so that people won't have to re-type things by hand when comparing Sino-Tibetan branches. Attested forms would can be in separate appendices. Readers can also consult Yu (2012) for attested forms. — Stevey7788 (talk) 19:02, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

perfective aspect

Noun

 * 1)  A feature of the verb which denotes viewing the event the verb describes as a completed whole, rather than from within the event as it unfolds. For example, "she sat down" as opposed to "she was sitting down". Since the focus is on the completion of what is expressed by the verb, this aspect is generally associated with the past and future tenses. This term is often used interchangeably with aorist aspect. This is not to be confused with the perfect tense.
