Talk:quixotic

...and it is pronounced how?

like a moron would pronounce it
quixotic is pronounced "kwik-sot-ik." Every dictionary I have seen this word in says so, despite it being in such small usage that one might suspect the academes that use it to be familiar with the original idea behind the word. The only explanation is that several scholars truly beleived they were moved by Cervantes tale of Don Kwiksoti. 128.101.70.95 17:21, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Nice edit summary. "Believed" is spelled with the "i before e."  Over 50,000 books can be found using the term "quixotic", at first glance.  Over two million web pages currently use the word.  Although I haven't heard the word yet today, I did hear it conversationally yesterday.  Your assertion that the term is in "such small usage" is as incorrect as your spelling.  Your assertion that the pronunciation should be more like "key" + "hote" + "ick" is quite silly.  --Connel MacKenzie 17:44, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

I do have to agree with the first analysis. Because the word did originate from Cervantes' book Don Quixote, (which by the way is second only to the bible in being the most translated book in the world) I think it should be pronounced more like the character's name. "key-hO-tick" -Morphine

 * That is precisely the problem. How you think it should be pronounced, is not how it is.  Try http://m-w.com/dictionary/quixotic if you don't believe us.  --Connel MacKenzie 18:37, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

I am well aware of how the word is pronounced sir... I am simply stating that the pronunciation of the word is catered to morons and psuedointellectuals. I apologize for being over opinionated but it would make good sence if the word's pronunciation corresponded to that of its origin.

 * I apologize for my tone, if that caused offense. It was not meant to.  If you wish to enter an alternate pronunciation, I'm not at all sure how it should be labeled..."theoretic etymological pronunciation" or something?  --Connel MacKenzie 20:47, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
 * A usage note citing the etymology should suffice. Cheers! bd2412 T 22:54, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

More information illuminates this. As noted in the American Heritage Book of English Usage, Brits and Americans pronounce the name of the character Quixote differently. Aha! This explains the Britishism "quicksotic" and frees those of us who say "Kee-ho-tay" to continue to pronounce the derived adjective our preferred way, which is more faithful to the source language. Cited at http://www.bartleby.com/64/pages/page232.html

 * I'm not sure that it wouldn't sound affected to pronounce it that way. The Spanish adjective is after all, not "quijotico". I would pronounce with an "h" for the "x" without expecting it to be considered affected (in fact preferred in the US), but not quixotic:. DCDuring Holiday Greetings! 17:40, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

Say it how you wish to say it-the meaning remains the same, and if others think not you can explain the meaning of the word-i'm sure it doesn't actually matter. For the purpose of this, however, i'd pronounce it "kwicks-oh-tick". Hana O'Connell, 15:54, 4th April 2009.

Well, take "nuclear" and the idiotic "nuculur" that's listed as a possible pronunciation on here as well. It inclines me to agree with the people who see the wikis and other such content as part of the dumbing down of the world. Artsygeek (talk) 16:17, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
 * So showing the world as it is, is dumbing it down? I don't get it. 16:31, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Just to correct ConnieInfo above, the British pronounce Quixote as "kee-ho-tay". One need only youtube the single 'Don Quixote' by the excellent British singer/songwriter Nik Kershaw to prove that.--31.49.56.196 20:09, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

Of course, real intellectuals should know that the original Old Spanish pronunciation was with [ʃ], and the modern Spanish pronunciation is with [χ], not [h]. See Wikipedia. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 02:31, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

Contradiction re: pronunciation
The "usage note" states, "Conversely, received pronunciation maintains the pronunciation of the semivowel 'h' without the strong phoneme of 'x'." However, the pronunciation section lists ", ". These seem to me to be contradictory. I wasn't able to find the source linked in the previous discussion... could someone clear this up or provide a working citation? --Jacob Finn 06:23, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

Define triple bluff as concisely and as accurately as possible.

Winner
After much deliberating, I, as self-declared competition honcho, declare, without stating my reasons, the winner of round 1 to be Entry 2. Well done Davilla. --Dangherous 16:03, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Round 2: God bless the Duke of Argyle
What is the etymology behind the idiomatic phrase God bless the Duke of Argyle?

Entry 1
It is said that the Duke of Argyle erected a row of posts to mark his property, and these posts were used by the cattle to rub against. The Dictionary of Phrase and Fable (Brewer) 1894 SemperBlotto 17:41, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Entry Duh
The etymology of the phrase "God bless the Duke of Argyle" is unknown. It's not so much that no one can guess at the origin of the words themselves, as even the meaning is fairly straightforward. It's not that no one knows who the Duke is, as Argyle is the commonly accepted spelling in New York of the Duke of Argyll, who visited the city during a period of self-imposed exile in the late 19th century. The question isn't even when the phrase first appeared, as it has been cited in a number of documents used in trade and diplomacy since the beginning of the 20th century, not long after the Duke's visit. The problem is that these documents, some dated as far back as the 17th century, have all been proved forgeries. Indeed, even the spelling is incorrect, and there was no Duke of Argyll, let alone a Duke of Argyle, in the 17th century. The uncertainty of the etymology stems not so much from when or how the phrase was used, as whether it was ever really used at all, or if it was only claimed to be used by persons writing under pretense. Despite his appeal in New York City, no New Yorker could rightly have been expected to say "God bless" anything, and outside of New York, the Duke's low popularity could not have led anyone to wish good blessings upon him, much less God, whose very existence the Duke questioned publicly, thereby contributing to his low popularity, brief exile, and ever so subtle name change, God bless him. Davilla 11:43, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Round 3: man flu
Have a go at defining man flu too, if you feel the desire. We've been hearing it loads in Britain in the last few months. Urbandictionary haven't even got a definition yet (they've got bloke flu defined though), but Wikipedia has a dodgy one (man flu). --Dangherous 12:58, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

How does this stuff get in a decent publication like the Wikipedia? I would AFD except for the urge to add "menstrual pain" to the list of symptoms. Davilla 13:15, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Hehe. I suppose that if you've got a million topics covered, you're bound to be clutching at straws for some entries. There aren't even half a million words! (OK, well maybe there are). --Dangherous 10:35, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Entry 1
The tendency for men to interpret a bit of a cough and sniffle as a potentially life-threatening illness SemperBlotto 14:11, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Round 4: vincian

 * From the depths of [ WS:RFD history], a made up word: vincian.

Entry 1
--EncycloPetey 07:39, 16 April 2006 (UTC) ==English== ===Etymology 1=== From Latin vincio "to bind, to fetter" ====Adjective==== vincian (compar: more wincian; superl: most wincian)   ===Etymology 2=== From Latin vinca "periwinkle" ====Noun==== vincian (plural: vincians) ''
 * 1) Of or pertaining to sexual bondage games.
 * 2) (architecture): Of the organic-based adhesive found covering cinema floors.
 * 1) (botany): Any propeller-shaped flower.

Round 4: forward looking statement
This phrase should not be just for chapter 11 notices anymore...or should it? --Connel MacKenzie 21:12, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

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 Shooter468. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Shooter468~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 00:12, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:OHG

To be added to ''OHG.:

 * 1) *References:
 * A New English Dictionary on Historical Principles, Oxford University Press, 1888
 * The Oxford Dictionary of English Etymology, Oxford University Press, 1966

Both dictionaries (the first of which is an old edition of what is now the OED) abbreviate not only Old High German in this way, but also Middle English (ME.), Old English (OE.), French (F.), etc. Ncik 23:20, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Do they both include the parentheses as part of he abbreviation?
 * If yes, are you making an argument that we should have yet another version with parentheses?
 * If no, it tends to show how easy it is to confuse periods which are part of the abbreviations and periods which are part of the general punctuation.
 * I strongly suspect the latter to be the case. What's interesting is how easily an innocent way of representing a situation can lead to the wrong conclusions. Eclecticology 07:50, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

The parentheses are not part of the abbreviation. But other ways of forming abbreviations (in the particular case of abbreviating language names in linguistic works, as well as in general) are possible: An Etymological Dictionary of the English Language, Rev. Walter W. Skeat, Oxofrd University Press, 1882 uses A.S., M.H.G., O.H.G., O.E., and the, to my eyes strange looking, O. Low G.. The last sentence and the following sentence violate the orthographical convention of omitting the period concluding an abbreviation if followed by a colon or full stop to avoid any ambiguity. A Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English, Eric Partridge, London, George Routledge & Sons, Limited, 1937 uses M.E. and O.E.. Citing from the entry "period (full stop) in abbreviations" from A Dictionary of Modern English Usage, H. W. Fowler, 2nd edition, Oxford University Press, 1965: "Abbreviations are puzzling, but to puzzle is not their purpose, and everything that helps the reader to guess their meaning is a gain. One such help is to let him know when the first and last letters of the abbreviation are also those of the full word, which can be done by not using the period, ....[examples].... As to abbreviations formed by combining the initial letters of two or more words, practice is not uniform, but the tendency is to omit the periods -OED, BBC, UNO, NATE, etc." We have at least the following abbreviations for "Old High German": OHG, O.H.G., O. H. G., OHG. Ncik 16:37, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

grockle

Etymology
The origin of the word is uncertain. A derivation has been suggested from the eponymous dragon-like creature in the obsolete The Dandy comic strip "Jimmy and his Grockle", based on an earlier strip, "Jimmy Johnson's Grockle", in The Rover comic in the 1920s, somehow leading to use in the present sense in the movie The System (1964). It is doubtful that the word's use in the West of England goes back farther than that.

Eric Partridge's A Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English also refers to the film The System but suggests another derivation, that holiday visitors in Torbay were compared to little clowns, and Grock (1880–1959) was a famous clown at the time.

A more straightforward derivation is 'grackle' an old term for the jackdaw, from the Latin graculus. It is apposite when considering large numbers of visitors noisily flocking to their holiday destinations.

Noun

 * 1)  A tourist from elsewhere in the country

Usage notes
In more recent times it has spread to other parts of the south coast and indeed elsewhere, including the former colonies of Northern and Southern Rhodesia as a term for a foreigner. The term is widely used in Devon and other areas of rural England where it refers to tourists or people recently relocated from elsewhere; it is mildly derogatory. Climbers in England & Wales use it as a dismissive term for less serious visitors to upland areas. On Snowdon in North Wales the two easiest walking routes to the summit (along side the railway and the PYG Track) have each been referred to informally as the Grockle Track.

The word was imported to the Isle of Man in 1970 by Capt McKenzie who had learned the word in Plymouth. Commonly referred to tourists in cars who can be easily identified because all Manx number plates have either MN or MAN in them.

Derived terms

 * , pictures for selling to grockles
 * , cheap arcades
 * and, caravan
 * , a tourist bus
 * , an easy to reach beach or beauty spot which acts to stop tourists finding other local spots
 * , fish and chips
 * , a holiday home or second home
 * , full of grockles
