noble gas

Noun

 * 1)  Any of the elements of group 18 of the periodic table, being monatomic and (with very limited exceptions) inert.

Usage notes
When the term was coined, all known group 18 elements were unreactive gases. This may not be true for the recently discovered superheavy element oganesson, though experiments cannot yet be carried out because of its short lifetime. Chemists usually include oganesson as a noble gas to extend the term to all of group 18, though those specialising in the chemistry of superheavy elements may exclude it.

Talk:set phrase

I still felt that this definition was over-specific so I gave in and looked it up on dictionary.com. Their definition comes from WordNet and states quite the opposite:
 * an expression whose meanings cannot be inferred from the meanings of the words that make it up [syn: idiom, idiomatic expression, phrasal idiom, phrase]

I'm not 100% sure that's right either. I tend toward thinking it's a phrase whose parts cannot be replaced by synonymous words whether it's idiomatic or literal. But I might also be wrong. — Hippietrail 00:22, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * This is fundamental to the issue. It is not clear whether "set Phrase" and "idiom" can be used interchngeably in most cases.  There are no references on the page so I have no way of knowing where the definition came from.  I have no idea where to go to verify the definition, which could just as easily be a POV from the writer's imagination. Eclecticology 08:28, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

RFV discussion: November 2014–July 2015
2nd sense: "A common expression whose words cannot be replaced by synonymous words without compromising the meaning. " --- Isn't this the definition of "idiom" and actually a special case of the previous definition "A common expression whose wording is not subject to variation"? --Hekaheka (talk) 13:40, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Dictionaries that define set phrase often have idiom as the definition or as a synonym. DCDuring TALK 14:05, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * If we accept that "set phrase" and "idiom" are synonyms, we still need to judge how many definitions we need. The Onelook dictionaries which list "set phrase" use the following wordings:
 * Oxford: "An unvarying phrase having a specific meaning, such as “raining cats and dogs,” or being the only context in which a word appears, e.g., “aback” in “take aback.”"
 * Vocabulary.com, Rhymezone, Free Dictionary and Look WAY up: "An expression whose meanings cannot be inferred from the meanings of the words that make it up."
 * None of them has two definitions. I'm not convinced we should either. --Hekaheka (talk) 21:53, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * If "idiom" is an exact definition of one way people use the term and others use it to mean a particular type of idiom, to wit, "an idiom which allows no substitution of synonyms or insertion of modifiers" and both are attestable, how can we exclude one? Very few people would accept the second as a definition of idiom.
 * The Gang of Four above are using the WordNet definition, which is exactly the same as one of the WordNet definitions for idiom and indeed for any in the synset consisting of idiom, idiomatic expression, phrasal idiom, set phrase, phrase.
 * The Oxford definition is more like the narrower definition, but "unvarying phrase" abstracts from inflection and pluralization, one or both of which may be possible, eg, rain can inflect in rain cats and dogs but neither cat not dog can be in the singular. I didn't find WP much help. DCDuring TALK 23:02, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Laughing while I think about it raining a cat and a dog... :) ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig 23:44, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * It appears to be essentially the same as definition #1, which is undisputed. Renard Migrant (talk) 10:43, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Part of what adds to the confusion are the usage notes, which present in prose what should be in synonyms and hyponyms sections, once the distinct senses are recognized and straightforwardly defined. DCDuring TALK 13:32, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
 * 'Setness' is something that is not quite as absolute as a naive user of the entry might think. Word order, inflection, grammatical transformations (eg, passivization), substitution of synonyms, insertion of determiners, and insertion of adjectives or other modifiers are all departures from the strictest sense of 'setness'. The set of phrases what allow absolutely no variation is relatively small. ('Kick the bucket' allows some verb inflection. Some proverbs might be absolutely invariant, but are not typical set phrases.) Some of the use of the term set phrase seems to include semantically transparent expressions that are nonetheless "invariant" because of their role as speech acts, broadly defined, or simply by dint of repetition, eg, catchphrases. Moreover, some uses of 'set phrase' seem to refer to expressions that do allow substitution of synonyms though one form is often significantly more common, especially in a specific time period and usage context. Rather than incorporate specific criteria such as "substitution of synonyms" into the definitions, we could use multiple (at least two) definitions as stakes that are not too specific, but near the boundaries of the range of meaning.
 * How about replacement of the definitions as follows?
 * A n common expression whose wording is not subject to little variation.
 * Any idiomatic expression A common expression whose words cannot be replaced by synonymous words without compromising the meaning.
 * I know this is RfV, but I am not really happy trying to specifically cite the definitions as currently worded and I would like opinions before changing the entry. DCDuring TALK 14:13, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
 * FWIW, your first definition corresponds to my understanding of the meaning. Spinning Spark  17:37, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I find DCDuring's suggestion good. Can we close this case? --Hekaheka (talk) 15:45, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Reworded. - -sche (discuss) 04:00, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

Talk:charging

Hmm ... it's borderline whether there is anything noteworthy going on. One can also say Smith charged, but this is rarer, or Smith is called for the charge, which is fairly common. Nonetheless, the term doesn't act like most verbs, in that other forms don't come up much. The analysis I've inferred from watching countless games is that "charging" is short for "charging foul" or "charging violation" and "charge" means "to commit a charging foul". In particular, you wouldn't say "Smith charges down the floor" even if that would be a fine description of Smith's aggressive dash, for fear of saying that Smith is committing a foul. At the very least there is a separate sense of charge.

The case of traveling is fairly similar. The phrase traveling violation is called out specifically in the rules, etc. -dmh 03:03, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Talk:irregardless

There seems to be some dispute as to how best to point out that, grating as this term may be, regardless appears to be used about 200 times as much (perhaps more, if we filter out complaints about the use of irregardless in favor of actual use). This is edging toward the "common error" designation. I'm not sure where to draw the line here. By comparison, "develope" gets 400K hits, as against 85M for "develop", or just about the same ratio.

On the other hand, I'm not sure that we should apply the same standard for inflections as for spellings. Also, irregardless appears to have some prominent proponents, including the President of the United States (George W. Bush).

At any rate, it seems worth noting, somewhere, that the "correct" usage is overwhelmingly more frequent. This is in conrast to, say, tidal wave, which is about even with tsunami and decimate in the sense of "severely reduce", which is overwhelmingly favored over the "correct" but curiously virtually unattested sense of "reduce by 10%". -dmh 05:43, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * I'm avoiding the "correctness" issue at this time, but to say that the use of this word is rare is out of touch with reality. 139K Google hits certainly suggests "very common" to me.  Google can only give hits for the written language, while this term is used even more frequently in the spoken language.  The first five English words that I got from the random page function were varnish - 1,360,000 hits, pound - 19,500,000 hits, twaddler - 10,300 hits, deem - 1,170,000 hits, and shitake - 121,000 hits.  Two have fewer hits than "irregardless", and there is no move to call them rare.  Something truly rare should have less than 100 hits.  If you want "relatively rare" you should say relative to what. Eclecticology 05:50, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 *  One difference between irregardless and develope is that irregardless has made its way into a number of dictionaries, where develope has not. Even if we are to strive for ideals of descriptivism, that is a description of the word worth including.  I shudder to imagine the effect, however, of including all of Mr.President's vocabulary and grammar into our Wiktionary.  Should we have a category "words that most dictionaries consider incorrect but the US president does not?"  :)

Irregardless of the fact that "irregardless" is improper English it has definitely become a word through ignorance and use. I would think that our entry should indicate that it is the "incorrect" usage and that regardless is the correct word and move on. Kevin Rector 03:50, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * I would like to suggest an alternative explanation for the prevalence of this word: "Regardless" is just a bad word. Say it in a sentence - "Bob was going to school regardless of the weather" vs. "Bob was going to school irregardless of the weather". Honestly speaking, setting aside technical semantic objections, which one SOUNDS more like what you are trying to express? I would have to say "Irregardless" does, though I cannot give a explicit reason why. Maybe "Regardless" is just not a particularly euphonic word?

 * The simplest way to explain the idea is that the overwhelming majority of English words follow a Latin pattern of not accenting the final syllable. For some reason "regardless" sounds clumsy when accenting the "gard" unless you want to specifically accent "regardless" in the sentence. At the same time you can't accent the "re" because then the word appears to have a prefix ("re") when it in fact does not. The word regard derives from French "Regarder", but there is no English word that corresponds directly to "Gard" in French in this formulation. So while you can accent the RE in re-instate, re-invigorate, re-phrase, you can't in revolt, repudiate or repeat because that would imply "volting" again or "peating" again.

 * The exception that proves the rule here is replace, you don't usually say REplace in the sense of placing again. Replace has become a prefixed word without a prefix. When you can't replace something it is not "replaceless" or "irreplace" but "irreplaceable". Same for "irredeemable". So why not "irregardable"? Because that is not what you are trying to say, disregard and unregardable (i.e. not regardable) means something entirely different from regardless. The real question then is why IRREGARD is not a word and why UNREGARDLESS is not a word.

 * Adding "ir" in front appears to allow the word to be used in speech in a manner which produces the correct stress, (i.e. on "gard") without indicating the whole word is stressed within the sentence. We say "irregardless" not because because it follows the pattern of irrespective, but because it follows the pattern of irreplaceable.

 * This may account for the common occurrence of the word in spoken language. To put it more succinctly: "Irregardless" rolls of the tongue better while "regardless" only makes superficial sense in the abstract, even though the capacity to convey meaning is not specifically enhanced (indeed it is seriously impaired) by the "correct" usage. This may also account for the fact that Google searches finds regardless more often (a ridiculous metric of anything important) while irregardless appears to be a phenomenon more frequently encountered in speech. DubhGlass 17:09, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Does not the "less" suggest something? It means "without" and "regardless" means, therefore, "without regard." That's readily apparent to me when I see the word, though I understand that it might not seem that way to someone thinking about it differently, or who has never made the connection. I disagree that it is a "bad word." JodianWarrior (talk) 15:32, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

Comment from AugustOmalley -

After reading a variety of statements regarding the use and validity of the word "irregardless", I decided to post my understanding of the words purpose and use in this discussion for others to consider. I was additionally motivated after reviewing the entries listed on the Citations tab of this article, which, in my own opinion, validate what I consider to be the unique usefulness of the word.
 * An example use of the word ‘regardless’ from the Merriam-Webster website:

 * "The weather looked bad, but they were resolved to go on with their picnic regardless."
 * Purpose and use: Informs the receiver that a decision (has been/is being/will be) made in the context of evaluating an influencing factor.

 * Compare to this example use of the word ‘irregardless’:

 * The weather looked bad, but since the picnic was being moved indoors it would take place irregardless.
 * Purpose and use: Informs the receiver that a decision (has been/is being/will be) made in the context of evaluating an influencing factor that (has/will) become irrelevant.

Etymology
It seems that the word was created in the 2nd half of the 19th century (that is 1850-1900). [By the citations in the entry and by the Google Book results I got it seems to be from the 1870s. According to OED it's from the 19th century or more precisely from the mid 19th century, while according to dictionary.com it's from the early 20th century.] Thus explanations related to Old and Middle English (as in and maybe implicitly in  ) don't seem to be fitting. -80.133.96.13 14:10, 1 December 2017 (UTC)
 * It appears to have been coined before that because the Wikipedia article cites the first time it was printed was in the City Gazette & Daily Advertiser (Charleston, South Carolina), the edition of June 23, 1795. This probably means that it was coined before that(possibly around 100 years before when you say it was coined).  The new edit implies a later time, but before double negatives were condemned by people that were trying to make English more like Latin(which don't make no sense, for English ain't Latin), which would mean the mid 18th century, which makes sense, for most words are spoken before being printed.

Usage notes
The collective term in English for the northernmost indigenous peoples of North America used to be, an exonym that has since declined in usage as greater interaction between both language groups. There is a dialect continuum stretching roughly east-west, Alaska to Greenland, of Inuit language varieties, with neighbouring regions' being mutual intelligible but farther separated groups having less linguistic overlap—vocabulary for shared concepts are usually cognates. Yupik peoples of western Alaska (and small proportion in the islands and coast of Russian Far East) speak languages closely related to those of Inuit but without significant intelligibility (unless learned). Inuit and Yupik languages comprise the family referred to as either Eskimo or Inuit-Yupik.

is the usual term in Canada (often grouped into western and eastern categories); is accepted as the continental umbrella term in Greenland but not for their of languages or group; and has gained some currency in the United States. However, continues to be the prevalent name in Alaska for both the Inuit  people and the non-Inuit. Also note that the terms and  do not include the related  people (, see also Eskaleut), nor the other Native (First Nations) peoples of the Arctic.

Many dictionaries do not list as a plural form. is usually used as an ethnonym with no singular form (like ). The need to treat as a singular has been obviated by wider recognition of its etymological singular form  in recent times.

Talk:continue

Connel, you used a header you called "derived terms" Would it not be more appropriate to call them "See also" (?) AJ --HiFlyer 00:48, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Looks like the right heading to me...Entry_layout_explained. Did I misspell something? --Connel MacKenzie 02:23, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Nope. Just a style difference. And I think it would be right either way,(the "See Also" was just 2 paragraphs below this one on your Entry_layout_explained example. I like yours more now that you brought that page to my attention. I'm here to learn, and you guys are great teachers. AJ --HiFlyer 17:11, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm new (and learning) also! :-)  Welcome.  --Connel MacKenzie 21:12, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * While derived terms may be correct, there is a tendency to use the slightly broader designation related terms. This allows terms which are not related but not directly derived (ancesters and cousins, as it were) to be added later without disruption.  Also, given that related terms will be needed in general, it seems better to have one designation instead of two.  In other words, is there great value added in pointing out that a set of strictly derived terms is derived, as opposed to related?
 * The usual convention is to use Related terms for terms which are etymologically related, and See also for other terms of interest (and for wikipedia and external links).
 * Granted, I can't think of any words related to continue but not derived from it. -dmh 21:57, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * dmh, Which should it be? I'm always leaning towards providing more granular information.  Any thesaurus 'bots' that divine meaning from related terms are probably going to be smart enough to also pull from derived terms, synonyms, ayntonyms and anything else mentioned in the Entry layout explained, right?  If that's too subtle a distinction, then please justfixit to accomodate them, and I'll try to follow along in the future.  --Connel MacKenzie 22:18, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * I tend to favor related everywhere, but not enough to go changing other people's work. I suspect a consensus will emerge sooner or later.  In other words, I don't think there's anything here that needs fixing. -dmh 22:31, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Talk:dogging

dogging is 1337

The definition to do with drinking gives an example in which the word is used as a verb (a participle). Does this mean that this definition a verb, "to dog"? — Paul G 15:10, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)

The word dogging as in the definitions is a gerund. Does anyone know what the wiktionary policy on gerunds is? Especially on those which are never (?) used as the verbs which there are derived from. I also wonder about the doggy-style bit in defn 1. This is new to me.

 * This is interesting. I've been thinking about past particples made from non-verbs (such as "long-nosed"), and I guess this is a similar situation. A category would be a good idea to gather a them in a central place, and that would also make a good place to discuss what to do with them etc.
 * Also notice the ambiguity in "derived" here. This word can be interpreted 2 ways. The generic way is that "to dog" came first and "dogging" came later. The linguistics-specific way is that "dogging" has been derived from "dog" by adding the suffix "-ing". For instance "burglar" can be seen as derived from "burgle" in the 2nd sense, even though the word "burgle" is much older. — Hippietrail 01:04, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Really? I thought "burgle" was a back-formation.

 * I think we need to back the definition(s) given here up with some solid citations, otherwise it could come, as Humpty Dumpty said, to mean whatever we say it means. — Paul G 12:23, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)

noun
The noun is slang, surely. And perhaps country specific. Would it help to be labeled as such? --Stranger 03:39, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

Public sex definition
Dogging is also a slang term, in some places, for public sex. This meaning could be researched further and added. Best wishes. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 09:28, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Added. Surprised we didn't already have it. SemperBlotto (talk) 11:34, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

Etymology

 * 1)  To fit into neither of two categories and, hence, be neglected or fail.
 * 2)  To attempt two roles and fail at both, when either could have been accomplished singly.
