le bien que je possède = the good that i own ? les biens que je possède = the goods that i own ?

das Gut, das ich besitze die Güter, die ich besitze

 * The usage "the good" (as in "the best is the enemy of the good") probably doesn't need separate mention. The constructuon works for most adjectives, and it's documented in the entry for the. -dmh 06:04, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Examples
How about do-gooder goodie two-shoes good for the soul?--Rich Farmbrough 19:08, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * These should get their own entries, tagged as idioms, and should appear in the "Related terms" section here. -dmh 06:04, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Translations section
Something doesn't work with the Translations. If I click on "Norwegian: god" (good in Norwegian), I get the page for "God" (the Lord, etc,you know.)

Noun
I have corrected this section. My reasons are:
 * 1) Good is only used in the singular as relating to evil, outcomes or in the subjective sense, therefore I removed the reference to the plural. One never refers to "the forces of goods" or "the results were goods".
 * 2) The collective noun "goods" has a different and unrelated etymology compared to the adjective "good" and its derivative noun. Goods comes from the dutch word "goedere", meaning wares.
 * 3) The words good and goods are unrelated and should therefore not be defined on the same page. This will only lead to confusion.

 * But you can talk about "a good" too. Moved back under new etymology. DAVilla 02:58, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

 * People increasingly do talk about "a good", but it's not correct to do so. Strictly speaking, 'goods' as a noun meaning wares or merchandise cannot be singularised and generally defines an unspecified quantity of materials.  If one single type of material is being referenced then 'commodity' will do.  One item is, well, an 'item'.  I don't yet have an authority to quote on this (I'll update when I can), but for now I think if you check most respected dictionaries such as Oxford, Collins and American Heritage, you'll notice that none include 'good' as a singular noun in this sense. - Shrivenzale 08:32, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

 * (http://elc.polyu.edu.hk/ErrorCorrection/nounsEx.htm references this at point 10. - Shrivenzale)

Dutch Check
The Dutch word goed and goede is ethical : 1 'vechten voor het goede' & 2'ik ben goed en niet slecht' meaning 'fight for the good' & 'I am good and not evil'. It also is 'Useful for a particular purpose'. Mallerd 14:13, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

What's that quote of Jimmy Wales' interview doing under Adverb : Well? Although I guess he's a force of goodness, so he belongs there :)

"Goody-goody; lacking in spirit or personality." In what sort of sentence would good mean this? Equinox ◑ 19:12, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

As in "she was such a good girl". A derogatory use of the word "good". Goldenrowley 00:10, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

 * I suppose I don't find that very convincing on its own. Do you think you could find a real usage that makes the same point? Equinox ◑ 00:31, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Maybe in “such a ‘good’ girl,” but not “such a good girl”. Anything can mean its opposite when spoken facetiously, but I don't think that's really a sense of the word in isolation.  I'd like to see some real examples, too. —Michael Z. 2009-03-06 03:44 z

 * We often contrast good girl with nice girl. A nice girl is girl with a strong moral center, while a good girl lacks self-respect and a moral code and thus is easy to bed. Boys want to date a good girl, but marry a nice girl. —Stephen 19:51, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't recognise that distinction at all, I'm afraid. Ƿidsiþ 16:08, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

 * It ought to be as easy to attest as AAVE if in use, though I'm not familiar with it except as Michael suggests. DCDuring TALK 17:20, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Okay, so “good girl” means one thing among college boys at the bar, and another from a dad to his two-year-old. But still, I suspect this applies to almost any adjective with positive or negative connotation (“bad girl” – does bad warrant a separate etymology?).  Do we have any guidelines on how to handle ironic usage of words?  If the former sense is common enough that it can be attested, then it should be attested, and perhaps clarified with a context label or usage note for foreign-language learners. —Michael Z. 2009-03-11 06:03 z

 * The good thing about RfV is that, after a decent interval, no less than 4 weeks, an entry or sense that nobody takes the trouble to cite is deleted without the need for further discussion. I personally rarely (but sometimes) find it desirable, let alone necessary, to include ironic use.
 * It is also very tedious to cite such usage, sometimes requiring looking at hundreds of snippets to find clear ironic use. The problem is severe with unusual senses of common polysemic words like this one. DCDuring TALK 15:09, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Nobody has cited it at all. Deleted; striking. Equinox ◑ 17:23, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

"Good" meaning "ready" and "okay".
I often hear the word "good" used in two ways which are not presently mentioned in this Wiktionary entry. 1) "Are you good?" is asked of people who fall over or drop something.  In this case, "good" means "okay".  I've personally only heard this usage among young people in Eastern Ontario, where I currently work. 2)  "Are you good?" is asked between parties involved in a task before some stage of said task is begun. Example: An MC asks the chef if he is "good" before announcing the start of a meal, to be sure the food is ready to be served. In this case, "good" is a contraction of "good to go," and means "ready."

 * #1 seems very similar to some senses we have (e.g. the "healthful" or "competent" in "How are you? / I'm good", but it does appear to be more or less distinct from them. Ditto #2 I suppose. I imagine it might be difficult to cite these (WT:CFI), though having said that there are a lot of modern books with informal dialogue. Equinox ◑ 19:01, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

how do I add comparative and superlative in Irish language
I want to add comparative and superlative for "maith" (Irish language for "good") as is shown for English:

good (comparative better, superlative best)

but I don't know how to do this in Irish, even though I tried looking at some other Irish examples. I tried looking at the English in edit mode but it contains the word "en-adj" in this area, and I assume this would not be appropriate for Irish.

The Irish translation is:

maith (comparative níos fearr, superlative is fearr)

Thanks for any help

Dolphin3900 15:35, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
 * You could do, having said that, maith already lists fearr in its declension template. Mglovesfun (talk) 16:24, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the entry for the English word good is not the place to be adding the comparative/superlative of, and it's already at the entry for the Irish word. —Angr 13:34, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you both for your comments; I've used that method for adding comparative and superlative forms to some of the more common Irish adjectives: maith (good), mór (big), beag (small), láidir (strong) —Dolphin3900 22:52, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

"Good" as the result of the Neophitic formula for analyzing social imapact.
In the area of the world I'm in (Pacific Northwest, USA), there's a local ethics-based religion called Neophism that regularly references Good as the result of an equation that is Good=(New Quantity of choices/Original Quantity of choices) * (Weighted Approval of those affected / Weighted Disapproval of those affected). Should this be given as an entry? --50.46.215.28 20:14, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Neophism does not seem big enough to be notable. Also it does not sound like a new meaning of "good", just a new way to measure goodness. Equinox ◑ 20:25, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

 * "Do good" is SoP. "Do-gooder" is not, because that's not a normal construction (you'd expect "good-doer" or "doer of good"). Equinox ◑ 18:31, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

'less good' vs 'worse'
Garner's fourth, page 263, reads

Depend typically takes on (or, less good, upon). When a clausal complement follows the verb, to omit the on is a casualism—

RFV discussion: September 2022

Apparently in reference to white supremacists saying the only good nigger is a dead nigger, but if so we probably need to provide some more context as to how/when it’s used in the form of context labels/usage notes.

User:Amatlexico

I chose this name as an abbreviation of amateur lexicographer or amateur lexicologist. It could also be construed as "amat lexeis", or "he loves words". (Lexis is a Greek word meaning "word", and was occasionally found in post-Classical Latin. The Greek inflection would most likely be followed in Latin, and I believe that the accusative plural would therefore be "lexeis" - but am not certain, so corrections are welcome.)

On rereading the above, I see that it's nonsense because if my name were based on Latin and Greek, it would need to be Amatlexeis instead of Amatlexico - unless we also borrow the Greek word "lexicon" into Latin.

I live in Oxford, England, and am a member of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge.

Talk:company

I have removed the old pronunciation 'kɔmpəni because I think it was in error. (Even if there were a pronunciation with short "o", ɔ would not be the usual IPA transcription for English - an upside-down a would be.) I apologize if the ɔ was for some reason intentional. Amatlexico

 * Thanks for correcting the IPA transcriptions. I have been adding a lot of them while I was trying to learn what the IPA symbols stand for. My mother language isn't English, though, so I am not an expert at all. I thought, since it is a wiki, the errors I may have made will be ironed out anyway.Polyglot 21:10, 25 Nov 2003 (UTC)

I've split the existing definition into two and added two more. The translations are probably wrong for the last two definitions. -- Ortonmc 19:12, 25 Nov 2003 (UTC)

 * That was a very good and necessary thing to do. I adapted the translations as good as I could.Polyglot 21:10, 25 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Comapny vs. corporation
As Wikipedia correctly points out at company, there is no "strictly legal meaning" for the word. When used in a legal context, it is generally understood to be a synonym for "corporation" or "incorporated entity". However, in a more general, colloquial sense is is often used as a synonym for "business" without the legal connotation of incorporation (thus including sole proprietorships, and other types of business). As such, I'm going to add one more definition and slightly alter the first, in order to reflect the difference between legal and common usage (for common usage examples, simply peruse any online news source, searching for "company"). -Harmil 20:30, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

User talk:Ortonmc

Hi Ortonmc,

Links are very compute intensive on the server. That's why we stopped using them in the titles/headings. I'm removing them from your articles. I hope you understand. The servers are almost unable to hold the load as it is. If there is something we can do to relieve the load, we should try to do it, I think. I like the articles and the definitions you put in. Keep up the good work!Polyglot 21:34, 25 Nov 2003 (UTC)

 * No problem; I'll start doing the same thing. Ortonmc 22:02, 25 Nov 2003 (UTC)

-- Hi Ortonmc!

I have just seen your definition of butterfly as a verb. English is not my mother tongue and it is the first time a see that use for the word. May it be just an adjective similar to eight-legged bug, where neither "eight-leg" nor "leg" are verbs even though participle-like forms can be derived from them? In short, can something like "I am going to butterfly the shrimps" be said in English?

Thanx! - Piolinfax 13:04, 10 Dec 2003 (UTC)

 * Cheers for the explanation, Ortonmc/Mark! - Piolinfax 18:27, 12 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Check the recent changes. My guess is that all the entries from that user are M-W online.

Hello, Ortonmc. Everything about the Bulgarian translation of iron is OK. Anyway, thanks for the notice! Webkid 14:53, 16 Dec 2003 (UTC)

I've noticed you are removing links from some articles. I think that doing so is detrimental to the articles and those links should be left in. After all, some people do not know the difference between a transitive verb and an intransitive verb. Such links are helpful to readers. -- LGagnon

 * Hi LGagnon,

 * I'm also taking out links from titles. There is a reason for this. The server cannot cope with the load anymore. For every link it encounters, it needs to do a database lookup to know whether this link needs to be colored red or blue. The links in the titles are the easiest ones to forgo. They are also the most ubiquitous, recurring again and again in all the entries. Most people consulting a dictionary do know about grammar and the others can also look it up manually or they could simply not care about it. Also words like it, of, and, etc, shouldn't be turned into links. I hope you understand. Many thanks for your contributions!Polyglot 08:39, 20 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Hey Ortonmc- I'm not even a registered user and readily admit that I'm a bit of a moron. ;) I added a few new words to the 'pedia (kibi, gibi, et al), but not having the will to look up how to format entries I did them completely wrong. Thanks for fixing them! I'll go read up on how to do it correctly now, so I can make more meaningful contributions. I'd sign this with a handle, but for now I'm just a number.

Hi Mark. I left a message for you on Talk:Apology. Cheers ValidUserName 21:05, 7 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Sorry, I was a bit too quick to revert there. Polyglot 11:28, 15 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Why bring in the Webster's 1913 definition of bark in particular? I may not be clear on the concept here, but I thought the Webster's 1913 material had been moved to a different namespace. Otherwise, I'd think Wiktionary would have an entirely different appearance. -dmh 06:02, 4 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * Hi, dmh. I just happened to notice that some definitions (and all the etymologies) were missing from bark, and since I wasn't feeling particularly creative at the time, I cribbed them from Websters.

 * The Webster 1913 namespace is, as I understand it, a temporary holding place for the Websters source material. Some folks (primarily Eclecticology, though I think there I've seen another in the last couple of months) have been gradually reformatting the Webster definitions into Wiktionary format and moving them into the main namespace.  Since it's public domain, it seems like a good place to import info from.  Of course, many words have acquired new meanings since 1913, and those should be added.  Ortonmc 18:46, 7 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * I have no problem with using material from Webster's (or anywhere else in the public domain), but I was a bit disconcerted to find that the original definitions had been replaced by largely identical ones, the new (old) ones being more precise in some cases but also more quaintly worded. Would it not have been better just to bring in the missing material (particularly the etymologies)?

 * As it is, I can't help wondering what was the point of creating the original entry? I had gathered that the decision had already been made not to use Webster's as a starting point, and thus implicitly to create new entries from scratch, reflecting current usage.  If there is an ongoing project of bringing the Webster's entries over, I may have misunderstood.

 * I would think that bringing Webster's over is somewhat more than a simple matter of reformatting. For example, I learned "bark ones shin" without knowing the specific meaning given in Webster's.  If my case is typical (maybe it isn't -- maybe most people recognize the original metaphor), then the meaning has effectively mutated.

 * On the other hand, part of the utility of a dictionary is bringing to light suhc hidden connections. To this extent, dictionaries tend to be somewhat conservative and the older definitions are particularly useful.

 * Hmm . . . perhaps modern entries could link to the Webster's (and possibly other sources) for comparison purposes. It seems feasible to have a bot insert links or stub entries for words defined in Webster's.

 * In any case, it seems best to have a clear policy either of using Webster's and other PD sources as raw material consistently and energetically, or specifically not using them as a matter of course. As with most such matters, I don't have a strong opinion as to which course to take.  I would just like to know.  I thought I did, but the updating of bark put that in doubt.

Hi Ortonmc,

Yes, the word Afrikaans is (derived from) Dutch. Before the English colonized Zuid-Afrika, the Dutch were there (Just like in Japan, they were the first that managed to penetrate in the society there too). So the language Afrikaans today is a mixture of Dutch, English and some local languages. It is not impossible for us to understand Afrikaans. It takes quite a bit of effort though... and it sounds extremely funny. The grammar has been simplified and adapted. Polyglot 05:29, 6 Jun 2004 (UTC)
