As in Bill of Lading? [NLH]

Is the sense "using a ladle" really of the same etymology as the senses meaning "load"? It seems that it would be a back-formation from the word "ladle". N'est ce pas? 24.120.176.70 10:19, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

Talk:all

Logically negated
An earlier version said that all logically negated to not some. I can't see how this could be correct. Strictly, the logical negative would be not all or at least one with the negative — if not all X are Y, then at least one X is not Y. If not some X are Y, then no X are Y, which is certainly a special case of not all, but generally if one X is Y and one isn't, then it's quite true that not all X are Y.

So much for logic.

In actual speech, the opposite of all may be no/none or it may be some, depending on context. Just to make things more fun, many speakers (myself not included) like to say "All are not ..." to mean "Not all are ...". Drives me nuts, but that's what people say. Maybe we should note that (the usage, not that it drives me nuts :-). -dmh 20:21, 20 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Revision as of 15:23, 3 February 2006 by 68.154.224.64 has plagiarized the names of the languages of the top three translations.

The audio file isn't working

German: Pronoun all
"Short form of alles. Only used in the combination all das (“all that”)."

That's not true. It can be used like "all meine Tiere" (all my animals), or "all ihre Freunde" (all her friends), or "all die Tiere" (that would be considered poetic, however). So, "all" - personal pronoun - noun. Or - "all" - article - noun, in poetry/literature. Could someone write that up into a proper explanation? --Nellie Nüms (talk) 11:00, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Thank you for your hint. I added the "Usage notes" section and used your examples. I hope it's better now. --MaEr (talk) 11:45, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

Pronunciation of final L
I'm not a native speaker, so I'm not going to change it, but I believe the l in the IPA form should really be a ɫ, right?

 * There is no such phoneme in English. It is possible that some dialects, speakers, or contexts do carry that sound, but our IPA is generally broader and largely phonemic, rather than phonetic.  When enunciated as a separate word, the given value is correct. --EncycloPetey 09:49, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

 * In one sense you're correct and in one sense not. [ɫ] is indeed the way English speakers would realize the l sound at the end of the word. Thus, if one were describing the exact pronunciation of the word, that would be the symbol used for the final consonant. However, dictionaries typically provide what's called a phonemic transcription instead of a phonetic. Basically, [ɫ] is considered to be an allophone of /l/. [l] will never be found at the end of a word and [ɫ] will never be found at the beginning. So to provide the phonemic transcription, we just use /l/ as we can tell by the rules of English that it's really [ɫ]. I hope that makes any sense at all. —Leftmostcat 09:54, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks for the elaboration:)

Vowel Sound
I'm a Canadian, but have lived much of my life in various parts of the US as well. Perhaps I'm misjudging this, but in American English, to me it really does seem like the vowel sound in "all," ball, fall, etc., is less of an open-mid back rounded vowel, and more of an open back sound [ɑ] or something akin to that. Phonemically, I don't think many English speakers associate the sound with "o," either. To me, pronouncing it as the open-mid back rounded vowel (the reverse "c" looking thing) sounds a little British or simply haughty, but perhaps I'm not hearing things correctly.

I'm living in Japan now, and in Japanese, the sound is often transcribed as "o" as in オール100円 (all 100yen), but I'm not sure if that's the closest representation, either, or rather something carried over from a long time ago, or just mistranscribed. Please advise.

 * To me, the vowel in all is the same as in law, which is /ɔ/. The ‘ll’ in all is very dark, close to the dark Russian ‘l’. —Stephen 01:43, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep. It does seem to be an intensifying adverb, but it doesn't have the same gloss (ie, not "wholly" or "exclusively"). The gloss "so much" seems to work when "all" is followed by non-determiner "the" and a comparative. Though "all the" is often followed by comparatives "more", "better", "worse", "harder", there are at least 70 other comparatives the follow at COCA. Of course, some instances are of determiner all, not adverb all, but it seems that all of the comparatives appear sometimes where the "so much" gloss is the best.

Are we sure the claimed two etymologies are distinct? -dmh 21:01, 20 Dec 2004 (UTC)

 * I didn't look it up, but it seems to me that arm as in part of the body has Germanic roots (It's the same in Dutch and German), whereas the military sense has Latin roots (cf. arme in French, arma in say Spanish). It's only in English that they happen to meet since English is sort of a conglomerate of Latin and Germanic ancestors. (That's a big part of the reason why pronunciation and spelling are so far apart and in a way it's like having two languages) All this makes it an interesting language, but certainly not a candidate as a secondary language for the world. (Yeah, I'm an Esperanto freak... :-) Polyglot 23:40, 20 Dec 2004 (UTC)

 * I just looked it up. Arm as in limb comes to us from Indo-European -ar through Middle English earm, presumably by way of Anglo-Saxon.  Arm as in weapon comes from Latin arma as you say, but again this comes from Indo-European -ar.  Stranger things have happened.  Looking at forte has convinced me that, even when the ultimate roots are the same, the etymology (how we got here from the root) may vary, and this is another case of that.  I would contrast that with bank, where the various senses all seem to originate from place to sit, with the financial sense a simple metonymy of the moneychanger's bench for the moneychanger. -dmh 15:55, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

English art
Reasons for stub (but maybe "rfc" is better):

By the first definition, wouldn't drugs be art? -DanielLC
 * Etymology in wrong place, thou art sense has different etymology.
 * The definition given could be tighter.
 * The sense as in art of computer programming or liberal art is missing.
 * All kinds of interesting related terms (black art, fine art, liberal art, artist, artful, folk art etc., etc. are missing)
 * Could use a Wikipedia link
 * Proper Noun (Arthur etc.).

Why are there two Interlingua translations for English art?--Kip122 00:46, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

 * They are Interlingua and Interlingue, two different languages.

The problem with these definitions is they are defining a specific art, or a group of art types. They are not defining what art really is. In addition, there are two different uses of the term that are not encompassed by these definitions. Consider the usage "state of the art" when applied to technology. Now consider the same usage - "State of the art" when applied to a dance troupe or modern painting school. There are also subtle distinctions for a given piece of art. Consider for example of the art rendered by a great pianist playing Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata". How is that both similar and different from the art rendered by Beethoven when he composed "Moonlight Sonata"?

At one point in history a judge had to determine what is art (I believe it was during a obscenity law suit involving Mapplethorpe). The judge could not find an adequate answer and so concluded that "art is what artists do". From that standpoint, and also considering that many people felt Mapplethorpe was an artist, than the judge concluded if Mapplethorpe (an artist) declared what he did was art, who was the judge to disagree. Critics may argue that it is good or bad art, but it was still art. The case against Mapplethorpe was dropped.

So let us get to the real definition of art, and not the judges definition. The real definition of art is two-fold. The first part is that art is a creative process. Creating something that did not exist before is an act of art. Therefore, the statement "state of the art" when applied to technology is describing the state of the creative process in a technological setting. Great creativity can be appreciated and praise whether it is a painting or a computer chip. Creativity is still rare enough that it can be cherished and appreciated.

But, creativity does not cover the piano player performing "Beethoven". Oh, I will fully admit that the player may add a certain amount of personal touch to the piece. That player may enhance spots that were not enhanced in the original score; may downplay spots that Beethoven wanted enhanced. But, that is not the same as creativity. That is interpretation. The musical notes are Beethoven's. It was Beethoven that did the creative part. Yet, the player can still be a great artist. Therefore, there needs to be a definition of art that encompasses the piano player. What is the piano player doing? Why is one piano player considered great and another grating?

The second part of art is the communication of emotion. It is easy to communicate ideas. We do it all the time. Heck, the abbreviated language of texting can communicate ideas, fact, and data quickly and succinctly (unlike me, who is verbose and long-winded). Communicating emotion is difficult. You can write the words "I Love You" to someone, but that is a fact, a data point. That does not communicate the emotional impact of love to the other person. On the other hand, the play “Romeo and Juliet” communicates a concept of love so powerful the people are willing to die for that emotion. That is art because those experiencing the play can feel the emotion, the pain, the suffering, the ecstasy that goes with that emotion. It is no longer a data point, a statement of fact; the work of the artists has rendered the production into a communication of emotion from the artist to the audience.

This then gives us two axis of the art "graph" - the creative axis and the emotional content axis. We can then divide the "artistic graph" into four quadrants (consider the irony of using a math metaphor to study art). If the vertical axis is creativity and the horizontal axis is emotional content, then we can analyze each quadrant separately, examining the meaning of each. In the lower left is the quadrant that contains neither large amounts of creativity nor large amounts of emotional content. That quadrant is the mundane, the normal, the everyday existence. I call this quadrant the technician quad. While “technician” implies something technical, the true meaning of the technician is one who implements something, who makes, builds, fixes, or otherwise works something. While there may be some emotional content and some creativity it never breaks into the level that anyone would call "art".

The upper left quadrant is the creative quadrant. Here we see the creation of things that never existed before. While I like to call this the engineering quadrant, it goes way beyond engineering. However, the reason I refer this quadrant as the engineering quadrant is because engineers render concepts into created products - whether those products are bridges, buildings, computers, software, or whatever, it is an engineering effort to create something new and different that did not exist before. Some say (Heinlein was a good one for this rant) that modern art is devoid of emotion. If that is the case, then the modern sculpture or painting is a work of engineering not art. Note that creating a copy of something is also not art nor is it engineering. While something is created, it is not new or original. The first wheel was a creative piece of art. The 1000th wheel is just a copy. Originality is what gets you into the upper left quad. Duplication moves you down into the lower left.

The lower right quadrant is reserved for the communication of emotions. Great emotional communication is a powerful force. I call this quadrant the performing arts quadrant, although it is more than just the performing arts, and more people do it than performing artists. However, great performing artists, whether actors, singers, musicians, mimes, or comedians, all are great at allowing the audience to empathize with the artist – to feel what the artist is feeling. Powerful performers leave an audience stunned with emotional impact. There may be no true creativity. They are performing something that another person created (an author or composor or correographer). However, they are communicating emotion, and that is the second part of art – the communication of emotion. There are performers who are technically perfect in their implementation, but bring no emotional connection to the audience. Those people would be performance technicians, but are not performing artists.

We now come to the upper right hand corner. In this corner we have both creativity and emotional content. I call this the true artist quad, but again, it is more than that. These people create something that never existed before and that thing has great emotional content. Leonardo was both a great creative, emotionally impactful artist (consider the “Last Supper”) in the upper right quad, but he was also a great engineer in the upper left quad (consider his various flying machines). Using the judges definition, his emotion-free creations are still art (since he is an artist), they just lack the emotional impact of true art. The great masters (Van Gogh, Picasso, Mozart, Debussy, and Michael Angelo, to name a few) showed both great creativity and great emotional content. They are true artists because they are both creative and emotional communicators.

So, there we have it. The true definition of art is: 1a Creation of something new 1b Communications of emotion However, without context, these definitions lack the force of what they really are (maybe to define art you need to communicate emotionally and creatively) and therefore are less satisfying than some of the other definitions. Therefore, the reason for this long-winded discussion item is “how do we put these definitions out there?” This is especially a problem since no dictionary defines art in this way (and therefore, they to lack the true definition of art).

Citations?
Where are the citations for this article? For definition one, where is it cited that it must be human? Couldn't there be art on some other planet? Why not? Is it based on the observation that no other species has been found engaging in art? What if I could cite experts in peer-reviewed papers saying that they'd found one such species, right here on this planet? 67.246.33.203 04:14, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

art
Rfv-sense: "Human effort to imitate, supplement, alter, or counteract the work of nature." Was tagged with, I thought it would be better to list it here. I feel like it's attempting to be genuine, but the way it's worded I don't think I understand it.

 * The first definition of art is in the aesthetic and the second is in the practice of skill. Any relation to nature after that is consequential or situational.  If that is true it is either etymological or fanciful.  Is the list not, paint, sculpture, scripture, method..?  I'd have said a dam could be art if consideration was paid to the aesthetic, and that damming was artful if it were skilled.  Counteracting nature is just a poetic abstraction.

Per Feedback

 * "The third definition of "art" ("A re-creation of reality according to the artist's metaphysical value judgments") is taken nearly verbatim from the novelist and philosopher Ayn Rand. However meritorious that perspective on art may be, it should hardly be considered a formal dictionary definition. If Wiktionary were to follow that standard, by the same logic, it would have to also include countless other ways people have chosen to summarize the concept of "art," which can be more accurately called personal opinions or philosophies rather than objective definitions."

I'm inclined to agree. Rand's definition of art may be philosophically distinct from other definitions (our number 1 def currently seems to be stolen from Alexander Brouwer), but it still refers to the same physical objects (a painting is art, whether because it's "a production of the beautiful in a graphic medium" or because it's "a re-creation of reality according to the artist's metaphysical value judgments").

DCDuring TALK 14:33, 8 November 2012 (UTC)" Yes we do surprisingly badly on very common English words, probably for this reason, definition written back in 2005 or even before in some cases, and never reviewed, as we seem to focus too much in my opinion on adding new words, not improving the one's we have. We have ten definitions, some long wrong, silly or meaningless like "Activity intended to make something special". #2 looks good to me (might need a very slight reword) but I'd favor removing everything else and starting from scratch. It would cause chaos with the translations, and the rfv-sense should remain until (or if) it fails. Would do it myself were it not for the translations.

Talk:de novo

"The initial occurrence of cancer in a patient." - this is a noun usage - is this correct? If so, it belongs under a "Noun phrase" section. — Paul G 15:37, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Contradicts "abuse of discretion" entry
This article states "In law, de novo is the most rigorous of the three standards by which common law court decisions are reviewed on appeal; the other two are clear error and abuse of discretion."

yet the entry on "abuse of discretion" linked within indicates "abuse of discretion" is the most rigorous: "Abuse of discretion is the most rigorous of the three standards by which common law court decisions are reviewed on appeal"

since only one can logically be the "most rigorous", I (though I know nothing of law in particular) thinks there's a mistake with either this entry of the "abuse of discretion" one :) 209.129.94.61 00:48, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

Talk:bent

This is an interesting article, because it's partly regularly derived and partly idiomatic. I'm not sure I like separating past and past participle. Yes, they have different translations, but the translations aren't idiomatically different. If I saw "past or past participle of bend", that should be enough for me to work with. I'd have to understand which it was (or whether it was one of the other senses) from context, and I should know what a past and past participle are.

For that matter other words, I'm not sure we need translations for regularly derived forms at all. On the one hand, it seems convenient to the reader, but the need to add every new language definition two or more places at least doubles the room for error and practically guarantees inconsistency. E.g., does bent, past participle, have translations for every language that bend has? -dmh 17:49, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Cecil

Etymology
The most common explanation for the etymology of "Cecil" seems to be that it's ultimately derived from the Latin Sextus ("sixth"), and that we got it by way of the Old Welsh personal name Seisyllt, but our modern spelling is a result of folk etymological association with the Latin name C(a)ecilius (derived from caecus "blind"). I don't know if the etymology section should be modified to reflect that or not. --Redfield 22:24, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
 * It's certainly worth mentioning, and the surname sense was missing.--Makaokalani 12:51, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

beware

Etymology
From, , , forms of , equivalent to or. Compare 🇨🇬.

Verb

 * 1)  To use caution, pay attention to (used both with and without of).

Usage notes
The verb was traditionally used without of (e.g. "beware the ides of March", from Julius Caesar Act 1, scene 2, 15–19, by Shakespeare), but it is often used with the preposition today.

The verb beware has become a defective verb and now lacks forms such as the third-person singular simple present and the simple past. It can only be used imperatively (Beware of the dog!), subjunctively (It's important that he beware of the dog), or as an infinitive (You must beware of the dog or They told me to beware of the dog).

The inflected forms, , and are called obsolete in Fowler's Dictionary of Modern English Usage, along with the simple indicative "I beware". The forms and  are very rarely found in modern texts, though  is slightly less rare. These inflections are more likely to be found in very old texts.

The meanings of the obsolete inflected forms can be easily understood by replacing "beware" with the more modern equivalent consisting of a conjugated form of "be" and the word "wary". For example "bewares" means the same as "is wary", "bewared" the same as "was wary", etc.
