In Britain, the "outside lane" of a multi-lane road universally refers to the fast lane, the one nearest the central reservation. This is, I think, the direct opposite of the American use. 217.33.74.20 15:50, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Yes, that is the opposite of the colloquial American use. More often, it is simply called the slow lane.  --Connel MacKenzie 19:26, 21 May 2005 (UTC)

RFC discussion: July 2010–August 2015
Adverb sense "On or towards the outside" and preposition sense "On the outside of" both make use of the noun outside without specifying which noun sense is meant, and should be reworded (or use ) and possibly split. —msh210℠ (talk) 04:49, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

Separately, a user opines [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3ASingular_they&type=revision&diff=673901738&oldid=673897227 here] that the citation currently under the aforementioned adverb sense ("Jurgis waited outside and walked home with Marija") isn't using an adverb at all, but rather a preposition. , thoughts? - -sche (discuss) 20:39, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
 * I've got to wait for cooler weather to face this. DCDuring TALK 02:24, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Oh. That's just a question of whether we follow a leading reference or our typical non-contributing users. We decided that it was worthwhile to follow leading references to include the PoS header Determiner, partially because that PoS has been widely accepted. I don't think we can make that claim to combine such Adverb and Preposition sections, however attractive it may seem to eliminate the semantic redundancy. We have a hard enough time getting active contributors to accept that attributive use of a noun does not an adjective make. DCDuring TALK 03:25, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

Outside: preposition
In the second quotation from Upton Sinclair I believe that "outside" is an adverb. It has no object. How is it different from the usage in the first example of the adverb? "I slept outside." "Jurgis waited outside." Caeruleancentaur (talk) 05:17, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Agreed. I cane here to see if Groucho Marx's famous "Outside of a dog..." joke was here but there is already a good example of that use, and I didn't add it. Wastrel Way (talk) Eric

Accents
These accents on Japanese words such as saké are not French accents of vowel quality, they are Japanese tone accents. The accents on sáke and saké are correct. —Stephen 14:59, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't see any mention of any such use of the acute accent at wikipedia:Japanese_pitch_accent or elsewhere. ''Chameleon'' 09:15, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

 * I don’t know where you should look to find it, it’s something that I’ve known for half a century. Japanese has a pitch accent somewhat similar to Chinese, but there are only two pitches. The written acute accent áéíóú marks the LAST SYLLABLE before a fall in pitch. The first syllable in a phrase begins low unless it is a high pitch as in sáke.  When the first syllable is low (the most common case), the next syllable is raised, and all successive syllables are raised until you reach the syllable marked with áéíóú, immediately following which the pitch falls until the next pitch group.
 * Thus, sayōnára is pronounced: sayōnára.
 * Dṓ itashimashite is pronounced: dóo itashimashite.
 * Kono chihṓ ni arimasu is pronounced: kono chihóo ni arimasu.
 * Aói kimono o kite imasu is pronounced: aói kimono o kite imasu.
 * Wakarimasén deshita is pronounced: wakarimasén deshita.
 * Hána desu ka, haná desu ka? is pronounced: hána desu ka, haná desu ka?
 * In this way, apparent homonyms such as sáke (salmon) and saké (rice wine) are differentiated, and hána (nose) and haná (flower) are differentiated in speech by their pitch. —Stephen 12:02, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I know about pitch. But I haven't seen anything (certainly not anywhere on Wikipedia) that says that the accent is marked with an acute.  ''Chameleon'' 02:22, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Aha! I have bought a new dictionary and it uses the acute accent to indicate the stressed syllable.  ''Chameleon'' 03:13, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

panadería
It's been awhile since I studied Spanish (and my Spanish was never very good), but doesn't "d" become /d/ in American Spanish and /ð/ in Spanish Spanish? I had assumed that was the explanation for the dual pronunciation. -Atelaes λάλει ἐμοί 08:39, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Totally incorrect. Furthermore, if a dialectal pronunciation with [d] existed, it would have to be marked separately.  Would you slip [ˈnuːkjəlɚ] in next to [ˈnjuːkliə] ?  ''Chameleon'' 04:03, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Talk:race

"A progressive movement toward a goal": I don't see how this is a different meaning; can anyone give an example? Maybe this definition should be deleted? The following two definitions (of racial identity) seem very hard to distinguish : "A group of people believed to have common ancestors" "A classification of human beings based on superficial traits such as skin color, and shape of facial features" I don't know what one can manage in a dictionary (as distinct from am encyclopedia). People with green skins (to be non-controversial) would be deemed, by themselves and by others, to derive from distinct ancestry, And differences would be sought, or invented, between people believed to have common ancestry. E.g., people of Scottish descent are said to be mean with money, so if a Scot is mean, he will be taken as typical; if generous, he will be deemed to be an exception. 213.208.107.91 19:28, 19 May 2005 (UTC) Different from what? There are several apparently different definitions here.  Perhaps it is different from a presidential race, in which only one can achieve the goal. (Although as in the first, only one can "cross the line first" and none of the rest can.) Since we each have a huge number of ancestors, we would each belong to as many races, so that definition does not make careful sense.  Of course the connection between phenotypes and somatotypes is recognized, but unexplained by current genetic knowledge (Except for some limited codons to protein synthesis & metabolism). So there might be (but isn't) a genetic basis for a definition of 'race', but especially with the explosion in transportation and number of humans, the social term 'race' can have no strict(objective) or even generally applicable meaning (possibly some statistical procedure?). Self-identification (also commonly used) is usually a cultural identification.  Perhaps some day the human species will recognize it as an historical artifact, like beheading. Wikidity (talk) 16:28, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

Tea Room discussion
What sense of "race" is used in phrases like "the human race", "a salve against the race of elves", "join the race of gods"? It isn't really "A large group of people distinguished from others on the basis of a common heritage", because it isn't always people, and group membership isn't always about heritage — I've added several quotations of the form "join the race of" to Citations:race. Incidentally, I also found a few thoroughly abstract uses like "join the race of faith" (apparently meaning "community"). - -sche (discuss) 20:02, 9 April 2012 (UTC)

 * What do you mean it isn't always people? All the examples you gave were people. The fantasy sense of "race" seems to be something like an informal name for subspecies. I pedantically could argue that the human race, Homo sapiens sapiens, is a subrace of Homo sapiens; in the mermaid cite, I would argue that it means "A large group of people distinguished from others on the basis of common physical characteristics" (that is, the people who don't have tails and don't breathe water); in many cases, it's a kickback against meanings 1-3, implying there is no meaningful large group of people distinguishable from others on the basis of common inherited physical characteristics. (#2 is not quite an accurate definition, as the fact is that if your parents were the same race (#2), you will be considered the same race.)

 * I'd almost make senses 1-3 subsenses of one sense and add a fantasy sense to include elves and gods and whatnot.--Prosfilaes (talk) 07:08, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

 * I'm confused by your first comment ("All the examples you gave were people")... as you note later, several of the citations I added pertain to elves / gods, not people. I do think it seems to be synonymous with "species" (why do you say subspecies?), though our current relevant definition (sense 1) of [[species]] needs improvement. Modifying your "common physical characteristics" idea slightly, "A large group whose members are distinguished from nonmembers by common attributes" (such as divinity in the case of a "race of gods") seems like a good definition.
 * I've added another citation, this one discussing an extraterrestrial race.
 * Re combining senses 1-3: dictionary.com separates a sense "a group of peoples" ("the Slavic race") from "a people with a common history" ("the Dutch race"), which seems even stranger than our current separation of 1-3. I do think we could have a general sense like "A group distinguished by common characteristics", and make all of the other senses (human, animal, 'fantasy' etc) into subsenses of it. - -sche (discuss) 07:55, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Elves are people. Whether gods are people or not is more complex, but on the mortal realm, I'm sure I can find cites showing that most sapient creatures have been people. I'd be interested to see cites showing that elves, Vulcans and Wookies aren't people.
 * The conception of elves as a race that can interbreed with humans and produce fertile offspring certainly makes them subspecies in the modern biological sense, though that gets a little silly in settings that have dragons and angels interbreeding with humans.
 * I think your new definition is still missing the concept of heritability. The one thing virtually all definitions of race is that if your parents are of a race, you will be too. (Occasional sci-fi sudden mutation, and bad science 'throwbacks', like the concept that Downs syndrome was a reversion to Mongolism, aside.) "by common inherited attributes", perhaps.--Prosfilaes (talk) 09:23, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * A race was originally thought of as a large group of people sharing a common ancestry (in a broader sense), with characteristics stemming from that common ancestry- in other words, a different "kind" of people (this even applies to cases like "the Anglo-Saxon race").
 * In cases like elves and gods, the concept of "people" is broadened to include such beings. In traditional racist views, other races are held to be an inherently inferior kind of people, just barely people, with terms reminiscent of animals being used for gender and other subcategories: a male might be a buck or a brave, a female might be a squaw, a child might be a pappoose or a pickaninny.
 * The idea of characteristics beyond superficial ones like skin color and facial structure being different between races has pretty much been debunked, but I think the modern senses refer back to the original idea, even if there's disagreement with part of the basic premise.
 * I think most of the "join the..." senses should be metaphorical rather than literal (though I haven't looked through them, so I could be wrong). As for the "race of faith", that brings to mind the metaphor of running a race that Paul used in the Christian New Testament. In the case of "joining the race of gods" I think that's a magical transformation of "kind", much as one might be magically transformed into another species, such as a frog- an exception to the rules, not an example of them. Chuck Entz (talk) 19:28, 13 April 2012 (UTC)

Elves are not people! People exist, elves don't! Mglovesfun (talk) 09:30, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, we currently (correctly) define "people" as "a body of human beings", and "person" as "an individual human"... which an elf is not. - -sche (discuss) 06:42, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

 * They've been called the Little People for a long time. BGC turns up "Because if it was true, the elf-people would help her.", and "The clever Elf people had been very busy with the mountain- peak to make it elegant", "the little people who help Santa Claus to make Christmas toys are elves" and "A Natural History of Elves: The Hidden People of Iceland and the Arctic Circle", "Elves, people of the woods and waters, celebrate and protect the natural beauty of Middle Earth." and ""My people call me Nir," said the elf.". Beyond elves, we have "A bug is an insect, sweetheart. The Thranx" (giant alien bugs) "are not insects. They're people, just like you and me, and they're supposed to be very smart." and "“Really, Char Mormis,” he observed in the delightfully musical voice of the thranx, “inhospitality is hardly the mark of a successful businessman. I am disappointed. And this looking for a hidden weapon on my person." and "The quintessential Klingon person, of course, is the warrior, and there are several words for “warrior.” " and "As soon as I started creating the Klingon crew. the absolute first person I wanted in there was Leskit because he was a snide. obnoxious Klingon. which is never simple."

 * A large swath of science fiction has been engaged in proving that just because someone is covered in scales and has a tail, doesn't mean they're not a person, so I'm sure I can find an endless stream of quotes from that direction.

 * (In contrast, of course, is "I realized that it wasn't a person sitting on the root of that tree—it was an elf.")--Prosfilaes (talk) 08:58, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I see no reason why we should accommodate fictional universes in this way. There is no common word characterizing people that cannot characterize fictional near-people or characterizing animals that cannot characterize fictional near-animals or characterizing vehicles, or clothing, or devices....
 * If someone would like to document what has or has not actually been imagined to exist in such fictional universes, that might be an interesting wiki. It could probably even be a money-making proposition. DCDuring TALK 10:35, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I think you're missing the point; the original point was that this sense of race doesn't only apply to human beings. Elves was one of the initial examples given, up couldn't it also apply to non-human animals like dogs or cats or whatever. Mglovesfun (talk) 10:52, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

architetto

Etymology
. Non-etymological /e/ perhaps by analogy with.

Noun

 * 1) architect

Usage notes

 * The feminine form architetta is sometimes considered jocular or offensive as it rhymes with tetta (boob). This led to the rise of other female alternatives, such as architetto (reusing the male form), architettrice (improperly applying the suffix -trice) and architettessa (using the suffix -essa), which are however marginally used. The Hellenizing form architettena (based on τέκταινα being the female form of τέκτων) is not used.

bikeshedding

Etymology
. The term was coined as a metaphor to illuminate. Parkinson observed that a committee whose job is to approve plans for a nuclear power plant may spend the majority of its time on relatively unimportant but easy-to-grasp issues, such as what materials to use for the staff bikeshed, while neglecting the design of the power plant itself, which is far more important but also far more difficult to criticize constructively. It was popularized in the community by Poul-Henning Kamp and has spread from there to the software industry at large.

 * 1) Futile expenditure of time and energy in discussion of marginal technical issues.
 * 2) Procrastination.
