Usage notes
The words apprehend and both describe acts of the mind. However, while apprehend denotes grasping something mentally so as to understand it clearly, at least in part, comprehend denotes understanding something entirely. We may, thus, apprehend many ideas without comprehending them. For example, the very idea of God supposes that he may be apprehended, though not comprehended, by rational beings. In The Study of Words (1851), explained the difference thus: “[…] I read Hamlet, or King Lear: here I ‘apprehend’ much; I have wondrous glimpses of the poet’s intention and aim; but I do not for an instant suppose that I have ‘comprehended,’ taken in, that is, all that was in his mind in the writing”.

Talk:giros

Locally where I'm at (in the middle of the coterminous USA), this sandwich is called a gyro (pronounced "YEAR-oh"), and the plural is gyros. Does somebody want to clarify this? Thanks.

 * Recent popular borrowings tend to lack any "officialness" in their spellings. I bet there are lots of variations. We should talk about them here and add them to the article as we discover them. I'll keep my eyes open in Sydney (:

 * Also, I don't think the term "sandwich" is good for describing a giros. In American English "sandwich" covers a far greater semantic field than in other Englishes, including hamburgers, subs, and apparently from reading this definition, stuff wrapped in pita, lately often called "wraps" by other fast food vendors. In Australia a sandwich is only between two slices of bread. I wonder what the usage is in Britain - anybody know? — Hippietrail 23:45, 26 Apr 2004 (UTC)

However, the terms are used informally when rigour is not required.

Etymology

Noun

 * 1) bistro

Etymology
The etymology is unclear; it is presumed to come from a regional word: bistro, bistrot, bistingo, or bistraud, a word in the dialect which means a "lesser servant", or bistouille, bistrouille, a colloquial term from the northern area of France for a mixture of brandy and coffee, the kind of beverage that could be served at a bistro. The first recorded use of the word appears in 1884, the next in 1892 ("bistrot").

A popular folk etymology of the word claims that it originated among Russian troops who occupied Paris following the. In taverns they would shout the Russian to the waiters, so that "bistro" took on the meaning of a place where food was served quickly. This etymology is rejected, due to the 69 year gap between the proposed origin and the first attestation.

Talk:bruschetta

The plurals given are used in English, but I think this word is more often used as an uncountable noun (as in "Do you like bruschetta?"; "Can we have some more bruschetta?"). Comments/supporting evidence? -- Paul G 06:08, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * It's probably the same as with many other foods in English in being able to be used as both (try "pizza" in your example sentences) but it does in my experience seem to be primarily a mass noun (perhaps "uncountable" is a misleading synonym in this case?).

Also, the note that categorically states the pronunciation is one way and not another seems to lack NPOV... prescriptively it is /sk/ because of the etymology but I have heard /brʌˈʃɛdə/ from Italian restaurants and I think even TV commercials (tho I'm not entirely sure of that one). —Muke Tever 07:35, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * The makeshift pronunciation I have added is misleading. The 'u' is the sound in 'could' (ʊ) (or maybe even the neutral vowel /ə/) rather than the sound in 'cut' (/ʌ/).

 * (True. The pronunciation I cited was a little half-assed: my experience upholds /ə/.)

 * I agree that the pronunciation is non-NPOV. The Italian is certainly -sk-, no question.  My view, as an Italian speaker, is that the -sh- in English comes from ignorance of Italian or comparison with the German "sch".  In restaurants in the UK I have ordered bruschetta with a -sk- only to have the waiter repeat it back to me as bruschetta with a -sh-.  I don't know which has greater prevalence, but agree that the the English pronunciation should be descriptive rather than prescriptively attempt to maintain something close to the original Italian.

 * In any case, I'll add the Italian pronunciation to the Italian entry. -- Paul G 08:46, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * I think both pronunciations are used, and probably should both be listed, with a usage note describing one as etymological and one as based on the spelling. —Muke Tever 09:12, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * That seems reasonable, even though a part of me wants to insist that everyone uses the "correct" one :) I had to smile when I read this, as the Italian pronunciation of the Italian word is based on its spelling, as is the case for all Italian words.  Interestingly, a glance at my print dictionary suggests that -sch- is pronounced "sk" in most words beginning with sch- and "sh" in most words ending in it. -- Paul G

 * I hope I've found a good compromise in "The Merriam-Webster Dictionary lists the two common English pronunciations, of which only the first is accepted in Italian." (English Pronunciation note) I do think it's important to avoid prescriptivism when it's about subjective value judgements and not being aware of one's own POV, but then it is equally important to show respect for other languages (and by extention, other cultures) and I think it's pretty clear that this is one of those latter cases.--Tyranny Sue 04:27, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

 * I think you'll find that Italian spelling is based on Italian pronunciation. Few languages have a written form before a spoken form. I hope this was a thinko (: — 138.130.36.104 12:48, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

noughties

Etymology
, in imitation of the names of other decades (,, etc)

Noun

 * 1)  The decade consisting of the last year of the previous century and the first nine years of the next: from 1900 to 1909, 2000 to 2009, etc.

Usage notes

 * Sometimes avoided because it is a with ; it is even sometimes spelled.
 * Less precise phrasing such as at the turn of the century or in the early years of the century is more common.
 * In context, as during that decade or in the immediately following years, or in a list of decades, the 1900s/nineteen-hundreds and 2000s is commonly used, but this becomes ambiguous in a broader context, as the 1900s more commonly means the entire century, and the 2000s may mean the entire millennium.
 * The first decade of the twentieth century is frequently referred to as the Edwardian era in the UK, as it coincides very closely with the reign of King Edward VII.

Talk:equal sign

Pedant's note: The equals sign is not used for assignment in computer programs. The assignment operator is. In some programming languages, eg, BASIC, the assignment and equality operators are both denoted by the equals sign, but this is the exception rather than the rule.

There is already an entry for "equals sign". Could "equal sign" not just be cross-referenced there?

One further point: the equals sign is not a punctuation mark. The "msg:punctuation" block does not belong here. -- Paul G 06:42, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * If equals sign also exists (I don't see it...?), one should reference the other to prevent duplication of entries. I'm not sure which is dominant. (Aside: They're variant forms but not variant spellings: 2 + 2 = 4 could be read two and two equal four or two plus two equals four, thus = could be the sign for either "equal" or "equals".  I don't know how best to mark such a variation, which is similar but not equal to airplane vs aeroplane.  =Alternate form= maybe?)

 * As for Template:Punctuation, I take all kinds of issue with its suitability but I'm not entirely sure how best to go about improving it, or whether it should be removed from the wiki entirely. (However, I do think that as long as equal sign is listed in it, it should be listed in equal sign.) —Muke Tever 08:07, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * My mistake - I thought "equals sign" existed already and didn't check.

 * I checked with a print dictionary (Chambers, 1998) and it has both "equal sign" and "equals sign", giving them equal weight and currency. I suppose the two exist because the final 's' of "equals" blends into the initial 's' of "sign".

 * Google gives 82,500 hits for "equal sign" and 49,000 for "equals sign"; on the basis of that, "equals sign" would point to "equal sign". Google is not authoritative, of course, and so some other corpus ought to be checked before this decision is made. -- Paul G 08:52, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

MediaWiki talk:Punctuation

Serious question: putting aside for a moment the commonly debated issue of the suitability of certain characters for this page, is the concept of this message really useful at all?

If it is useful, I think we need to seriously review its contents, because some of these really can't be considered punctuation (strongest case: the underscore; next strongest: all the mathematical operators) and several actual punctuation marks are missing (notably, various dashes). —Muke Tever 07:57, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Talk:hail

"Used only in the infinitive and the third-person singular with it"

Isn't this what is called an "impersonal verb"? If so shouldn't we mark it as such and wikify the heading so people can read about this type of verb in its own article? — 138.130.36.104 12:37, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * Yes, I think we schould follow the same scheme as in rain. I've done it. Ferike333 12:24, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Translations from removed sense
This sense was incorrect: to "hail someone as a hero" means to "call/name them a hero"; "hail" alone does not mean "praise". Here are the translations, in case anybody wants them for another, more suitable entry, such as praise. Equinox ◑ 21:54, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

"(=Translations= fix really bad urdu characters)"

What was bad about the characters? Just the hamza above the aleph? — Hippietrail 12:41, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * No, the fact that they were spelled in characters from the Arabic Presentation Forms block of Unicode and not from the Arabic block. This is kind of like spelling ruﬃan with the ffi ligature character ﬃ instead of ruffian in ordinary characters.   Ideally the wiki would be smart enough to see these transparently but if it can't even uppercase characters outside of a-z consconsistently we really shouldn't encourage stuff like this. —Muke Tever 18:19, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Talk:yet

I'm pretty sure Spanish "todavia" is spelled with an acute accent on the "i". "Aun" has a form with and without the accent on the "u" but I always get them confused. Is this the right one here?

In spanish, it is spelled "aun" when it means "incluso" (even), and "aún" when it means "todavía" (still, yet). The word "todavía" is always accented. 87.218.79.241 16:50, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

"Yet" does not mean "now" in the example given in def #1. When used with a negative word like "not" it indicates something which has not happened "up to" the current time, but will or is desired to happen at some point.
 * Rather, it does mean "now" but it can only be used in the negative. You couldn't say "I am wise enough yet"

"As yet" should only be linked here as derived or related, and defined on that page. — 138.130.36.104 12:53, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

I suggest that we delete definition 1 since all usage I have seen is included by definition 2. One usage which is common is "up until then" (e.g. "He had not yet heard the news.") This usage always strikes me as odd (I almost claim incorrect), but it is common. Dbfirs 08:59, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Pronounciation
Is it sure the pronounciation is /jet/, and not /jEt/ ? The audio file sounds like the latter. Frigo 01:34, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Conjunctive meaning in English
The use of 'yet' as a conjunction ("He's a fool, yet I love him anyway") should be covered, but is not.
 * It is actually. Please look again. Ctrl-F for 'conjunction'. Jamesjiao → T ◊ C 02:29, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

Otherwise than changing the current definitions, this use needs its own meaning --Backinstadiums (talk) 20:04, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

 * No it doesn't. It's 100% perfectly covered by "Continuously up to the current time; still". Equinox ◑ 04:58, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

as "already"
Is the use of yet to mean already particular to the phrase "Are we there yet?" It seems to me we should either have that phrase as an idiom, or another sense of the word itself here, it doesn't seem to fall under any of those we currently have. --Droigheann (talk) 22:54, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
