Talk:series

What is the plural of "Series"?

 * Series. -Silence 15:42, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

there {has been - is} a series
According to Garner's fourth edition Common nouns of multitude: lot, flood, handful, majority, mass, minority, multitude, percentage, proportion, variety. Though serving as a plural when the need arises, series is ordinarily a singular . But it is also a noun of multitude, so that phrases such as a series of things take a plural verb. The collocation there {has been - is} a series has predominated over there {have been - are} a series, respectively. Should it be mentioned? --Backinstadiums (talk) 09:22, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

RFD discussion: October 2021–January 2023
The "adjective" series, is not an adjective, but attributive as far as I can see. Terms like, and  all come from the noun. I suggest moving the content (including the diagram) to the noun as an attributive sense. DonnanZ (talk) 12:27, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

 * The given usex "You have to connect the lights in series for them to work properly" is clearly not adjectival, though it is possible to find e.g. "a series connection" (attributive argument might still apply). Equinox ◑ 13:11, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, the usex would be more appropriate at . DonnanZ (talk) 13:33, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

 * However, Donnanz, since series (noun) has 8 senses and connection (noun) has 11 senses, shouldn't we keep this, because non-electricians might not understand "series connection"? (your usual SoP logic) Equinox ◑ 20:14, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
 * As I said above "I suggest moving the content (including the diagram) to the noun as an attributive sense." So yes, we should keep it, but under a different heading. I could have moved it, but that would have left no content for the "adjective". DonnanZ (talk) 08:08, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
 * As stated, the existing example, "connect the lights in series", is obviously not adjectival. Collins Dictionary lists an adjective sense with examples "a series circuit" and "a series generator". I couldn't find any other dictionaries that do. I am sceptical that these are true adjectival uses. I think they are attributive uses of the noun. Delete, but the electronics sense does merit separate mention in the noun section. Mihia (talk) 18:20, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

Talk:quite

Adjective
Am I missing something? How is this an adjective? "He's a quite man." "I feel quite today." DAVilla 16:00, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
 * It is just an adverb. Fixed. SemperBlotto 16:05, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

I think we are missing one of the meanings of "quite". Can't it mean "distictly", "markedly", "a significant amount"? As in "I see quite a differece." " I lost quite a few.", "That is quite different." "That is quite another matter". Indeed the usage of "quite" in most (all?) the "derived terms" seems to be of this kind. JustPassing 21:46, 28 March 2009

 * We have that: "To a great extent or degree; very; very much; considerably." Equinox ◑ 22:01, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Interjection?
Surely that's just the adverb.

quite
This is not an interjection; it is an adverb. As with many words of many parts of speech it can constitute a prosentence, with numerous possible meanings depending on context, tone of voice, etc. Calling this an interjection distorts and debases the meaning of both interjection and part of speech, rendering both terms less useful for Wiktionary. DCDuring TALK 14:52, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Quite. —msh210℠ (talk) 15:37, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Mglovesfun (talk) 20:39, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep the section now marked as "interjection", with the part of speech "phrase" or the like. Similar entries: absolutely, exactly, right; less similar entries: I think so, I don't think so. The point is to document the pro-sentence meaning, attested by quotations. I agree that tagging this as "interjection" is an overload of the term "interjection", one that dilutes the category for interjections. --Dan Polansky 08:42, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Would you also keep a sense of me defined as "it's I that's here: ", since it's a prosentence? Things don't deserve entries as prosentences merely by virtue of their being prosentences (and thus inherently non-SOP): they have to have meaning other than that implied by their parts in context. Quite means "I agree" in context because it means "exactly" as an adverb, not because that's some new meaning. Me means "it's I that's here" in context because it means "I" as a pronoun, not as some new meaning. —msh210℠ (talk) 17:05, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I probably would not keep me. The use of quite to mean I agree is peculiar to English as compared to Czech. The possibility of this use does not follow from the adverb definitions. The adverb definition that would be taken for the pro-sentence use would possibly be "To a great extent or degree; very; very much; considerably" (would it?), but you cannot use "considerably" as a pro-sentential "I agree", right? Neither can you use "rather" in this way, right? I agree that not every pro-sentential use should get an entry, or else most nouns would have pro-sentential entries, in Czech anyway. Only those pro-sentential uses should get an entry that are in some way unpredictable or peculiar to the language in question. --Dan Polansky 17:44, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
 * The relevant sense is "exactly", which I think is supposed to fall under our first sense, " Completely; wholly; entirely; perfectly", but TBH I don't think that sense is very clearly expressed. —Ruakh TALK 19:13, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Sense removed. —msh210℠ (talk) 19:53, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

American and British difference?
Is there not a distinction between American and British usages, where Americans use it strictly synonymously with "very (much)", but British may mean either that, or, the very different "slightly", or "almost"? E.g. to an American ear, "I quite like him" strictly means "I like him very much", but a British speaker could intend "I like him only very little".
 * Why not take a crack at it? DCDuring TALK 16:13, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

I was also surprised that there was no mention of this difference. It can lead to real misunderstandings in my experience : how's you meal? quite good. To a British English speker that is very moderated approval.PhilomenaO'M (talk) 08:02, 31 August 2014 (UTC)

I know a British dancer who reported having this miscommunication with his American partner. I'm going to add a note. DAVilla 18:52, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

Few
Could a note be added about how, for example, slightly different construction with "few" results in markedly different meaning: "quite few" (a very small number) vs. "quite a few", (MANY)?
 * Try it. DCDuring TALK 16:14, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

This entry is incomprehensible unless you are a grammarian
Users might struggle here. Equinox ◑ 21:16, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Yeah, and the "definitions" are descriptions of where it's used, rather than definitions of what it means! I suggest moving them, quotations and all (since it does seem like it might be useful to retain the current sorting of the quotations), into Usage notes. - -sche (discuss) 05:40, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

Used where a plain adjective needs to be modified, but cannot be qualified.
Regarding the sentence "Used where a plain adjective needs to be modified, but cannot be qualified", a couple of examples should be added to exemplify both modification and qualification. --Backinstadiums (talk) 14:50, 16 May 2018 (UTC)

User talk:Dustsucker~enwiktionary

Welcome
(No one has added a welcome message to your talk page, even though you've been around for a long time ...?)

One of our sysops blocked you for the "suck" in the username, I've fixed that. He also reverted the edits to the kwukyel entries and asked me to check them. I have restored your edits.

We need to figure out exactly what format to use for these; the "meaning" of "kwukyel" is because someone two years ago stuck that in the "common meaning" field not knowing what else to do. We don't want headers that aren't English ("Hanja" is a stretch ;-)

I'll look at it some more. and thanks for your contributions Robert Ullmann 16:47, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Oh, that's very kind of you! I was unaware of being blocked until now. My username is a literal translation of Staubsauger.
 * I can see the problems concerning the few kwukyel characters that have made it into the Wiktionary. Unfortunately, we cannot ask the people who used them whether they were actually pronounced or merely used as marks, like equal signs and commas are used today. Hence, I wouldn't know to what extent they qualify as vocabulary.
 * I notice you keep a bot. Perhaps we can use that to correct the numerous Korean Yale mistakes where a y is in the wrong place.
 * Thank you for your CJKV templates, kwukyel re-reverts and of course for unblocking me! --Ds 2006-11-07

 * Thanks. there are also a significant number of kwukyel that are characters, not just the marks. I believe there are contemporary (i.e. ~15th century) records discussing the pronunciation; but I have no direct knowledge. Can you tell me what is wrong with the Yale more specifically? I wasn't previously aware of that, except that we do know various romanizations in these entries have problems. (I'm not familiar with Korean Yale; even Yale doesn't use it any more; most use SK revised.) Robert Ullmann 14:46, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

 * The line under "Han character" (which is used because it is part of "Unified Han") has to be a # definition line. We have software that checks for definitions for each language level section in each entry. And it is a "definition", even if not a "meaning" ;-). We put these marks under Korean because they aren't Chinese ... Robert Ullmann 15:09, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

 * I'm sure you know more about kwukyel than I do. I took a course years ago when I didn't know any Chinese characters and lacked all background knowledge on writing in Korea.

 * As to the Yale problem The y follows the vowel where it should precede it and vice versa . When the y is supposed to be on both sides, it does just that.
 * I know Yale isn't and shouldn't be used much in a non-linguistic context, but if used correctly, it conveys some information that SK revised, McC-Rsr and IPA don't: orthography (for users without hangeul fonts), etymology, declension, and pronunciation (sokuon-style q to mark reinforcement of the following consonant as in halq kes, halq il; macron denoting vowel length in 20th century pronunciation) all in a single form &ndash great when there's no space for explanations, for example in those yellow boxes with a word's translations. It can even be used to write Middle Korean, for which there is no flawless Unicode font I know of. The big problem is that there was no complete documentation on the www as of early 2006. Dustsucker 16:01, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

 * You mean they are consistently (always) wrong? (I haven't really looked closely.) Robert Ullmann 16:14, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

 * I'm afraid they are. It appears Nanshubot is responsible for this (compare correct mayng at unicode.org with incorrect myang at en.wiktionary.org). I haven't checked before/after every possible vowel. Dustsucker 16:26, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

(left margin again if you don't mind) From everything I can find, Nanshu was copying the kKorean field. But that was from the then-current version of the DB. I haven't found any indication that this field was fixed later? (But then Nanshu did a bunch of strange stuff.) The only way I can see to fix this is to compare again; this has to be a separate task. Robert Ullmann 16:50, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

It seems I wasn't alone in occasionally adding or correcting Yale, so the relatively small number of correct entries would have to be either reverted or spared by a bot. Dustsucker 17:14, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

showing what the hanja looks like
As in 書. Could you please not do this?! When my 'bot gets to the entry it will add in which does this, but with your change it can't understand the format, and will skip Korean in that entry!

So please don't! :-) Robert Ullmann 02:59, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

 * I hope that doesn't sound negative at all, we've just already got this covered. Robert Ullmann 04:57, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

You're right, I somehow expected it might make things harder for an eventual bot cleanup, but put it in nevertheless. Sorry about that. I am not going to make any similar additions or format changes to Han character entries from now on.

Korean Yale
Hi! I think I have Python code that identifies the incorrect ones. Turns out not to be too hard, the MR is right next to it!

There are 457+ entries that are wrong (as of the 3 November XML dump). The reports at User:Robert Ullmann/Han mention the error when the code picks it up. They seem accurate, in the cases I had coded when that was run. (There are more.) When the code is good, I have it wrapped in a 'bot that can fix the entries ... Robert Ullmann 21:56, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Happy to learn that. Dustsucker 23:01, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

 * There are 995 or 1007 ;-) Missed some because of a bug, and some more because I missed a case. Seems to affect only ay/ya and ey/ye, not combinations with o and u, which all seem to check out. Looking for the remaining 12 instances ... Robert Ullmann 23:33, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

 * I found the 12 exceptions. Look at 灑. How did Nanshu get one right and one wrong in the same entry?! Some will get fixed properly by the code if run, which leaves a few I'll just fix by hand. Robert Ullmann 00:33, 25 November 2006 (UTC) Nope, code got 'em all now. We'll just have to check it some more before we run it. Robert Ullmann 01:21, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

BTW, somebody should decide which format to use:

There is also the question whether we should stick by the Yale rules and indicate vowel length. Many hanja usually had long vowels in 20th century standard pronunciation, so if we were to use Yale, we'd have to use macrons: 願 wēn, 四 sā. I suppose vowel length was lost in personal names, at least Martin 1992 never indicates length in those. If we choose not to indicate it, users should be aware that possible vowel length is not indicated. Dustsucker 23:42, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

If it's of any use, proper names (e.g. 량강도) should only have their first South Korean letter capitalised, not the superscript. Dustsucker 23:52, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Eumhun
Um, I know the correct spelling ... it worked when I coded them. Must have then fixed the bot and somehow not managed to fix the template? *sigh* Robert Ullmann 23:33, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Sorry, I had no clue how much you know about Korean romanisation (your Babel template doesn't say), so I thought more information wouldn't hurt :) Dustsucker 23:45, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

 * More information never hurts. And someone else looking at things helps a lot. (I wrote ichiban conjugation in one template, and cringed when Tohru found it for me, but I was very grateful.) Robert Ullmann 00:33, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for that link. Would you happen to know a way to get a stable URL for specific 표준국어대사전 entries? I would really prefer to link directly to the source, for obvious reasons (not least of them being Naver's notorious incompatibility with Firefox). However, the good folks at korean.go.kr seem to have configured their site so as to make that rather difficult. At any rate, hope to see you around; look forward to hashing out issues of romanization and whatnot with you. Cheers, -- Visviva 08:47, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

 * I'm afraid links are only stable for the search results pages, so those could be used when there is no homograph. Dustsucker 04:02, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Dustsucker. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Dustsucker~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:45, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:sassafras

I have not personally seen any evidence that sassafrass is the plural of sassafras. The Oxford English dictionary lists sassafrass as an alternate spelling. The entry does not cite any other dictionary or give any quotations to attest this. I will therefore remove the claim. Dfeuer 18:52, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

I added the plural "sassafrases", but it is only weakly attested. I'm not sure if it belongs or not. Dfeuer 19:29, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

After doing a bunch of research, and eventually landing here and editing for clarity and accuracy (only a REAL Italian would know for sure) deserving such a cliche'd (and some might say abused) expression, I vote that capeesh and capisce be merged under capisci as this seems to be the accurate word to be used and referred to... -edvard 70.90.179.221 19:39, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Except that we don't merge entries in a dictionary, as you would merge in an encyclopedia. The spelling of a term is more relevant to a lookup here, than the concept it represents.  Note that the opposite is true in an encyclopedia.  FWIW, I've always spelled the term capiche, but then, that is probably a regional thing.  --Connel MacKenzie 17:54, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
