Talk:Handschuh

Does the german term "Handschuh" really have 3 separate senses which neatly map to different English terms? Or are we using a different format for non-English words and English words where we number translations into English in the former, and senses in the latter?

Or what should we do? I put mitten and glove together because I felt the distinction was likely a quirk of English, but that was just a guess. It's quite likely that any kind of thing that's worn on the hands is just a "hand shoe".

I think the ideal is to go by sense as for English either by seeing what monolingual dictionaries for the language in question do, or letting a native speaker judge. Until then we should at least each be aware that it's unlikely that there is a neat mapping between English terms and foreign senses of the same word. — Hippietrail 13:37, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

 * I've no idea what the translations of "Handschuh" are, but I separated "glove" and "mitten" as these have distinct meanings (a mitten is a glove in which the fingers go in one part and the thumb in another, whereas a glove has a section for each finger).

 * Clearly there are 3 different words in English. This does not mean that the German word has 3 different senses. Just as we don't decide the number of senses of the English word "pot" based on the number of words which translate it into German. — Hippietrail 03:50, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

 * The format that I have seen used here for non-English words since joining nearly about a year and a half ago is to list translations without definitions, much as you would see in a bilingual or multilingual dictionary.

 * Actually I have quite a collection of bilingual dictionaries. The smaller/cheaper/poorer ones may include only a simple English equivalent. The better ones will include a definition if needed. This is the common sense approach. If we don't know enough for a definition, an English equivalant is a good start but I would never recommend removing a definitions for instance if one is already there.

 * I'm not sure I understand what you are asking here. What is it you are querying? — Paul G 14:20, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

 * The number of senses of a given word do not cross linguistic boundaries. For instance I'm not aware of an English words for "glove with open fingers" but other languages may have a word. Similarly, German might not distinguish "handschuh with separate fingers" from "handschuh with the fingers combined". — Hippietrail 03:50, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

Talk:assault weapon

There is a widely accepted definition for 'assault rifle'. However, 'assault weapon' is vague and controversial. Please don't confuse the two terms.

Also, to the best of my knowledge, this term is almost never used in other English speaking countries. Elsewhere in the world, military small arms are referred to by their accepted names, like submachine gun, assault rifle, crew served weapon, etc. Other small arms are referred to as semi-automatic, double-action, bolt-action, etc. Only in America do we differentiate good guns from bad guns by applying this term to the latter.

If someone outside of the United States has a different understanding, please correct this definition.

coefficient of friction

Noun

 * 1)  The ratio between (1) the magnitude of the force of friction which a surface produces on an object (moving along the surface or being pressed statically against it) and (2) the magnitude of the normal force which is produced by the surface on the object and which is perpendicular to that surface.

Usage notes

 * There are two kind of coefficients of friction. One is the coefficient of static friction, $$\mu_s$$, whose product with the normal force yields the maximum possible static frictional force. (The static frictional force may be a fraction of its maximum possible value in such a way so as to exactly counterbalance an opposite force acting on the object in a direction parallel to the surface.) The other is the coefficient of kinetic friction, $$\mu_k$$, which is applicable when the object is moving along the surface. In such case the force of friction points in a direction parallel to the surface and directly opposing the direction of motion of the object along the surface.
 * The normal force is a reaction against a component, perpendicular to the surface, of a force which acts on the object in a direction towards the surface. An example of such a force could be the force of gravity on the object.
 * When the static friction begins to surpass the magnitude allowable by the coefficient of static friction, the static friction no longer applies and is replaced by kinetic friction and its corresponding coefficient.

Well, regardless of it's practicality, we prefer to add words only if they are in at least somewhat common usage. We are trying to eschew Urbandictionaryization if you know what I mean, so once people start using it regularly, refering to it in blogs and whatnot, then would be the appropriate time to add it, rather than using wiktionary as a propagation tool. - TheDaveRoss

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 Rjg1021. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Rjg1021~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.

Talk:beat a dead horse

My feeling is that flogging a dead horse is the more common useage....any comments?
 * "flogging..." is unheard of in the US. --Connel MacKenzie 08:01, 14 May 2005 (UTC)

 * This phrase with the word "flogging" is unheard of in the U.S., but the word "flogging" itself is not.

 * However, has anyone actually (at least, in a situation other than when they're trying to be funny) used "flogging a deceased equine"? It looks to me as if someone simply ran "flogging a dead horse" through some thesaurus  program and came up with a new phrase they thought sounded cool. — V-ball 21:04, 1 November 2005 (UTC)
