Talk:motherfucker

Can someone provide a citation for "fatherfucker"? I've heard "motherfucker" thousands of times but I don't think I've ever heard "fatherfucker". The closest I can think of is from Arlo Guthrie's Alice's Restaurant, where he talks of "mother-rapers . . . father-stabbers," and then for further darkly humorous effect, "father-rapers".

If nothing turns up in the next few days, I suggest we remove the reference.

-dmh 21:19, 20 Mar 2004 (UTC)

04 Aug 2004 - Reference removed.

"Motherfucker"
Bobby Seale, of the Black Panther party, was at pains to explain that a motherfucker was not somebody who fucked his own mother; it was someone who fucked your mother. Given the origins of the word among African-Americans, and the long legacy of slavery, I would think that is the more likely derivation. (See "Seize the Time: the Story of the Black Panther Party" by Seale.) David F. Hutchinson  November 1, 2022 174.136.192.135 00:11, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

Here be gateway to 5,264,240 words in 932 dictionaries indexed - if you need it

Really current raving now that we have a multitude of wiki
What I propose that someone of you who has bots to command should consider implementing the following

 * Let's look up what every language name is in every language
 * Look up what's ===Translations=== or similar expression that the bot can spot the translations area in each language
 * map the language names and language codes
 * parametrise a bot to crawl the wiktionaries linking en:Word Translations to *Finnish: sana and *Swedish: ord and so forth and vice versa from other languages to English

So by locating "*Language" or *Language in section titled Translations the bot would determine to look for the word "sana" in http://fi.wiktionary.org and upon success (the target exists) links to it and hides the namespace.

Could someone with knowledge on wikibots assess the feasibility of such a scheme? Once a full round is done on all wiktionaries the bot should focus looking at new entries and linking them as they appear.

I see no harm in this kind of automation, it would actually help weed out stupid jokes and give more precision on nyances as the thesauri could be surfed translanguage.

I started contributing on 21.02.2003, because I believe that having a fairly complete free multilingual dictionary in every language will make the World a better place.

I'll do mostly English-Finnish-English, maybe some other stuff too.

I know Finnish and English well. I know moderatelly Swedish and Russian I know some in French and German

I believe that by the year 2023, Wiktionary will be the dictionary of the planet.

canard

Etymology
Borrowed from.

The primary English meaning of canard comes from the Medieval French expression “vendre un canard à moitié”, which literally means “to sell half a duck” or “to half-sell a duck”. This was perhaps the punch line to a joke. Eventually the punch line came to stand for the joke and then finally the word alone stood for the whole concept. The story may perhaps have gone like this: A duck seller is successful and content as the only duck seller on a street, selling his ducks for eight francs each. A new duck seller moves in across the street who steals all the business by offering his ducks for seven francs each. Then a price war ensues, back and forth, until the new duck seller is down to three francs for a duck. The original duck seller is beside himself with worry and frustration, but finally he puts up a big sign that says, “Two francs” and then in small print at the bottom “for half a duck.” In this way, to half-sell ducks may have come to mean tricking people with something that is literally true but misleading. It has this same metaphorical meaning in French. Now in English, it simply means anything that is deliberately misleading, a hoax.

Noun

 * 1) A false or misleading report or story, especially if deliberately so.
 * 2)  A type of aircraft in which the primary horizontal control and stabilization surfaces are in front of the main wing.
 * 3)  A horizontal control and stabilization surface located in front of the main wing of an aircraft.
 * 4)  Any small winglike structure on a vehicle, usually used for stabilization.
 * 1)  A type of aircraft in which the primary horizontal control and stabilization surfaces are in front of the main wing.

holy mackerel

Etymology
Recorded from 1803 with uncertain origin, but possibly a euphemism for Holy Mary, with Mackerel being a nickname for Catholics because they ate the fish on Fridays. Another suggested explanation is the practice of selling mackerel on Sundays in the seventeenth century (because its quality deteriorates rapidly), so it was known as holy fish.

Interjection

 * 1)  An expression of surprise.

Talk:holy mackerel

could a native English speaking person decide whether this merits deletion? Or whether it can be turned into a real entry. Polyglot 08:39, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * I couldn't tell if it was a joke or a clue for a cryptic crossword!

 * Could you fix it? Otherwise I feel compelled to take it out. Polyglot 09:54, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

It's valid, but humorous, so it needs to stay in. There are variety of these, such as "holy cow" and "holy smoke". -- Paul G 10:54, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * I've reformatted it and removed some of the less legitimate synonyms. -- Paul G 10:57, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Etymology
Can we get serious about the etymology for a second? There are no citations given for this entry. It is also factually incorrect. AFAIK there are no cites of this phrase before 1899. Eric Partridge has said that "holy mackerel is euphemistic for holy Michael, perhaps perpetuated as a jab against 'mackerel snappers', Catholics in the U.S. who ate fish on Fridays." While no one can know for sure the exact origin of the phrase, if anyone were to come close it would be him. 68.190.255.79 23:20, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

I don't understand the IPA here. I've never seen "ɔɑ" (Oa) before. The sound I hear in this word is the same as the word "oh" which is generally "əʊ" (@U) or "oʊ" (oU) depending on the dialect and the IPA scheme used. Hippietrail 09:31, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Chairpeople or chairpersons? Perhaps I need a better example here. -- Paul G 10:10, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Rule #5 is incomplete: "Compound words that..."

"Foot" not plural
I don’t believe that this statement about foot/feet is correct: “The plural foot is used colloquially in the sense of the unit of distance.” I would say: “The ten-foot pole is ten feet long.”  I believe the rule is that nouns are used in the singular when they are used as adjectives. (I think this is universally true in American English, but not in British English?) For example, all American English words for pants (trousers, jeans, slacks, etc.) are plurals without singulars, except when they are used as adjectives. We would say “a pant leg,” “a trouser pocket.”

Olivia

You're right, its singular form is used, so foot isn't another plural of foot... It's just like: I'm a 16-year-old boy from Hungary. If one says foot is a plural form in this case then even year should. But as I'm not native speaker of the English language I leave it somebody else to correct.

Talk:deep copy

Hmm. . . what makes an antonym an antonym. Prototypical antonym pairs: "high/low" "up/down" "hot/cold" are completely opposite, at least in the given senses. The situation here is a little different. Shallow and deep copies are both variants on the theme of copying. "Shallow" and "deep" are antonyms, but I'm not sure that "shallow copy" and "deep copy" should be. What about "white bear" and "black bear"?

 * Fair question. If adjective A means "not B" and "not A" means b, then are A and B antonyms?  Examples: on/off - a switch is either on or off, so "on" means "not off" and "not on" means "off".  In other words, if the pair of adjectives describe a binary relationship (ie, one whether only one of the states is possible, and if one is not present, then the other one must be), then are they antonyms?  This would rule out "white bear" and "black bear" because there are also brown bears, but would make "deep copy" and "shallow copy" antonyms, because if you make a copy that is not a deep copy, it is a shallow copy.

 * That is only true, however, if this is a valid definition of "antonym". I would say that it is probably not really valid, and would tend to agree, on balance, that deep copy/shallow copy should not be described as antonyms.  I'll revert these changes. -- Paul G 14:28, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * I tend to think "antonym" does not generally apply to compounds. Stricly speaking, the opposite of "A and B" is "not A and not B."  So the opposite of "white bear" would be "anti-white anti-bear".  "anti-white" has a pretty well-defined value of "black," but "anti-bear" doesn't have a well defined meaning.  This is the usual case for such phrases: Adjectives often have antonyms, but nouns seldom do.  I'm hard-pressed to think of a case where a compound can be sensibly reversed in both parts, and the reversal means approximately the opposite of the original.

 * Anyway, thanks for reverting the changes. -dmh 15:58, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Hi Ryo,

Please don't redirect foreign-language entries to their English equivalents. This can lead to important information being omitted or lost (see my reworking of "français", for example). Thanks -- Paul G 14:45, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC) (Wiktionary sysop)

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 Ryo. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Ryo~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 00:04, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:rhotic

Why the change from commas to semicolons in the list of places? Hippietrail 14:53, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * Ah - it was to avoid ambiguity, so that "... the north of England, Scotland, and India" cannot be interpreted as "the north of England, the north of Scotland and the north of India". -- Paul G 17:00, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * That makes sense. I remember it being a bit amgiguous now at the time. Thanks. Hippietrail 04:24, 23 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Oxford and Midwestern English
The Oxford Dictionary ©2008 appears to be specific about the rhotic applying to Midwestern American English, in case you wish to reflect this in the article. They give examples, e.g., Midwestern American English, in which r is pronounced before a consonant (as in hard) and at the ends of words (as in far).

Be that as it may, I am troubled by the phrase "this trait is common in most of the United States", which implies (to my ear) "nearly all" (again drawing from one of the meanings in the OED). In fact, this trait is uncommon in New York, New Jersey, all of New England, eastern Pennsylvania, and large parts of the South.

This may be quibbling, but would any of you be open to rephrasing "most of" to "much of", "the larger part of", or "a majority of"? Anything to give a more precise meaning?
