Usage notes

 * In other European languages, cognates of actually mean "now" or "currently"; (e.g., Portuguese "atualmente", Spanish "actualmente", French "actuellement", German "aktuell", Italian "attualmente", Czech "aktuálně"), making it a false friend. This leads many non-native speakers of English to use "actually" when they mean "now" or "currently".
 * Some commentators have:
 * remarked upon the irony that this qualifier of veracity often introduces an utter lie; and,
 * noted that in many cases, functions as little more than a vacuous emphatic utterance.
 * In practice, actually and its synonyms are often used to insinuate that the following is either unusual or contrary to a norm or preceding assumption, or to merely preface an overconfident opinion contrasting a previous statement or norm (as per 'vacuous emphasis' note above).
 * This is actually a really beautiful song. (contrasting opinion)
 * Actually, I'm not from France – I'm from Switzerland. (contrary from assumption)
 * At the check-out, the cashier actually greeted me for once. (contrary from norm)

suis

Etymology 1
From, from , from. The expected Old French reflex of would be. The form goes back to  or earlier *suī, which were probably influenced by the perfect tense  (“I was”, modern ). Compare the reverse development in 🇨🇬, from, influenced by the present form. Final -s was added in later Old French to the first-person singular forms by analogy with the second person; it was standardised in Modern French in most cases except after unstressed -e and in the ending of the future and past historic.

Is there any reason why we use English for the parts of speech, but French for the names of the moods and tenses? The most usual English expressions would be: indicative (present, imperfect, past historic, perfect, pluperfect, past anterior, simple future, future perfect, immediate future), conditional (present, past), subjunctive (present, imperfect, past, pluperfect), imperative (present, past), infinitive (present, past), participle (present, past), gerund. Logically, in the English wiktionary, we should use English tense names, whereas in the French wiktionary, the same conjugation should appear with French tense names. Amatlexico 23 Mar 2004 20:53 UTC

 * I agree 100% Hippietrail 00:43, 24 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * The only reason I did it that way is because I didn't know the correct English translations. I agree that they should be in English though. I was convinced somebody was going to translate them along the way. Polyglot 06:46, 24 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * Thanks for translating them. The only one that I think is odd is pluperfect. I guess you looked them up, so I'm sure it's correct.

What do you think of the format? Can we do the other verbs in Romance languages like this as well?Polyglot 08:38, 24 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * Looks good to me. "Pluperfect" ("plus-que-parfait" in French) is correct.  Yes, I don't see why we can't reproduce this for other languages (not just Romance languages) too. -- Paul G 09:27, 24 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * Certainly, with the caveat that the conventional names for tenses sometimes differ slightly. For example, French has a tense which we conventionally call the "past historic" (although it could also be called the "simple past" or "preterite").  The equivalent tense in other languages might have a different conventional name (such as "simple past").  If in doubt (with languages other than French) I would use "simple past" until told otherwise -- Amatlexico 19:38, 24 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * For irregular verbs, certainly. But it would probably be overkill to do this with every verb (or indeed every noun too, for languages with cases; some of the "Polish word:" pages do this).  There should be pages, probably in Wiktionary:Appendix, something like Appendix:Latin first declension, which would be linked to by first-declension Latin words.  Or is this already being done somewhere I'm unaware of? —Muke Tever 01:31, 25 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * In fact the author of these Polish pages set them up as examples of the different declensions. I even think he refers to them in the description of the Polish language he wrote. We could put the full declensions of some words as an example and then refer to those in order to avoid having to put the declensions everywhere. Polyglot 07:34, 25 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Talk:check

Verb translation to Greek:
ελέγχω (to control, to check).

Hmm. . . this raises an issue that has doubtless come up before. Just what order do we use for related terms, particularly when there are many of them?

My original list was mostly grouped by sense, e.g., checkbook was near "bounce a check" -- or at least I meant it to be. Frankly, I can't discern any order in the new arrangement, but I'm sure there is one.

Possible answers:

 * 1) It doesn't matter
 * 2) Group by meaning, somewhat subjectively
 * 3) Use alphabetical order

It's rather like organizing ones CD collection. . . alpha by artist? By genre/sub-genre/sub-sub-genre? by affinity? just throw 'em on the shelf?

-dmh 07:14, 24 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * I disagree. I always arrange related terms by a type of alphabetical order but preffering single words and preferring terms which begin with the exact form taken by the entry:

 * worda
 * wordb
 * wordc
 * aword
 * bword
 * cword
 * word a
 * word b
 * word c
 * a word
 * b word
 * c word

 * Also if it's clear which sense a term is related to (or if I've read the etymology), I'll put a 4th level "related" section under that sense just before the translations. If I can't tell then I put a 3rd level "related" section as the last section in the particular language. &mdash Hippietrail 07:28, 24 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * I'm not sure we have a disagreement here. The arrangement you give is perfectly sensible, but I wouldn't have guessed it just by looking.  My poor brain only got as far as "Hmm . . . not alphabetical . . . checkbook is completely separate from "bounce a check" . . . um, I give up."

 * In any case, I don't see this as a major issue. Much more important to get the terms in there in the first place.  I expect that this will be yet another case of early experimentation followed by consensus and standardization.  I don't have a strong opinion in this case.  I'm glad to go along with whatever consensus emerges and I'm not bothered if anyone wants to reorder any of the "related terms" lists in order to reach said consensus.  basketball would be another good place -- that list will get longer, as well.

 * Finally, the general pattern of fourth-level subheads where applicable and third-level as a default is a good one IMHO, applicable to related terms, synonyms, alternate spellings, translations, and probably other categories. -dmh 15:00, 24 Mar 2004 (UTC)

check if vs. check whether
Are both versions possible? If so, what is the difference between the two? When would each be used - do you have any examples? I have an example from the computer field: check if a field is empty or check whether a field is empty? Thanks from a non-native English speaker! Bernburgerin 14:59, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

 * To me, both are possible, but check whether sounds more formal and erudite, while check if sounds informal and colloquial. The use of check if can sometimes be ambiguous, and it could mean check whether OR if such-and-such is true, then put a check mark. Check whether is unambiguous. —Stephen 01:23, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Etymology section redlink
The etymology section links to a page that has been deleted, and it doesn't make very much sense without that page, we either need to undo the delete or give a longer explanation in this word's entry.

 * Are you referring to چک? If so, that wasn’t deleted, it was misspelled. —Stephen 20:49, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

etymology of check
What was the path by which the Persian word for check entered English, especially with the current meaning, as in checking account. When did the Persian word assume that meaning? Most sources show a flow from Anglo-Norman through Middle English, with the bank check sense not much earlier that 1700. DCDuring TALK 21:10, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
 * The chess connection may be somewhat earlier (see History of Chess). Chess apparently reached Europe from two directions, and came to be associated etymologically with the Persian shah, "king" (see checkmate). See also "check" and "cheque" at etymonline. Pingku 14:46, 13 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi, I think the the Perso-Iranian etymology is only secondary. The primary meaning can only be found in German and Turkic. Compare Turkish çakmak (to understand) and the German adaptation checken (to understand). This can't be a coincidence. I think a whole chain of Indo-European etymology entries in wiktionary is wrong, most of the etymologies are either secondary or do not have substantially founded basis. Cheers! --185.134.130.82 19:04, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

interjection
We should add an interjection sense for check. Used when ticking this off in the checklist in our head --Rising Sun talk? contributions 19:51, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Swimsuit? Check. Goggles? Check. Sun hat? Check. Sunblock? Check. Beach shoes? Check. OK, I'm all ready for my beach holiday!

You're not ready, you forgot your happy face! :D 81.68.255.36 21:36, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

English verb sense 5 & 6
Is 6 not the same as 5? 81.68.255.36 18:05, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Hmm. I'm not sure about this. It seems that if you check your coat in (sense 5) then you are expecting someone to look after it while you do something (e.g. attend a concert) and then to collect it from the same place when you've finished. If you check your bags before a flight (in British English I'd actually suggest it should be ) then you are expecting someone to look after them while they transport them (and you) to somewhere else, where you will retrieve them afterwards. I'm not certain whether that's enough for a separate sense or not - more opinions needed! Thryduulf (talk) 18:44, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
 * For me (an American), they are distinct but related senses. I would not use "check in" bags at an airport, generally, just "check" bags.  --Cromwellt|Talk|Contribs 08:28, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

"At check"
I'm not sure what this phrase means, but it's usage does not seem to be mentioned here. I found it in James Joyce's book Dubliners, in the first short story, "The Sisters". It seems to mean something like "surprised." --Cromwellt|Talk|Contribs 08:30, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Upon re-reading, it might refer to being "checked" as in stopped from something. --Cromwellt|Talk|Contribs 08:39, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

square in a check pattern

write checks one can't cash
Seems to be slang, meaning to make promises one cannot fulfil. Possibly also with "cheques" (British spelling). Easily found online but Google Books doesn't seem to search for this phrase properly. Equinox ◑ 05:33, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I think of it using check in the singular. Don't write a check you can't cash.  Vox Sciurorum (talk) 11:44, 15 October 2021 (UTC)

Someone has corrected "Est-ce que tu es jamais..." to "N'es-tu jamais...". I'm not sure about this. To my mind, the former means "Have you ever..." while the latter is "Have you never...". Would a native French-speaker please adjudicate. Thanks -- Paul G 14:43, 24 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * I agree with you, so I changed it back, but maybe an other example is called for. Polyglot 15:07, 24 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * I've checked it too and added a usage note. However the rule "ever = jamais", "never = ne ... jamais" might not be so clear-cut.  Other examples would probably help clarify this.

 * I think that even when it means "never", the "ne" can be omitted in colloquial French. Certainly this is true of the "ne" in "ne...pas".  Collins French Dictionary includes this example (as a complete sentence): "Y'a jamais penalty" (colloquial) = "no way was that a penalty". Amatlexico 23:14, 26 Mar 2003 (UTC)
