Quotations
1843 "A stone-saw is not a saw at all. It is merely a piece of soft sheet-iron, with a blunt, smooth, straight edge, unprovided with teeth. Its action is not, properly speaking, to cut the stone, but to separate the particles of the material by friction. The effect is much increased by the addition of sand and water, the latter of which in some degree softens the stone, while the sharp particles of the former aid the frictive action of the saw; the small hard particles which constitute sand may indeed be deemed substitutes for the teeth of a saw." — George Dodd, Days at the Factories: Or, The Manufacturing Industry of Great Britain Described, Page 243.

1993 "Calculations stipulate the frictive or delaying force that hampers the motion of the projectile." — Thomas Richards, The Imperial Archive: Knowledge and the Fantasy of Empire, ISBN 0860916057, Page 105.

2000 "When two masses of a single substance, or two masses of different substances, were briskly rubbed together, the temperature of both masses rose -- the case of friction; when one body percussed with another, the temperature of the receiver rose -- the case of percussion. For those who, along with Lavoisier, believed that heat was a substance, an acceptable metaphor for the observed increase in temperature invoked a metaphor about how the corpuscles of the frictive or percussed bodies were similar in structure to wool fibers or to sponges." — June Z. Fullmer, Young Humphry Davy: The Making of An Experimental Chemist, ISBN 0871692376, p. 55.

2000 "In order to play with a clear sound in a high register, the bow hair is positioned on the strings rather close to the bridge, where there is quite a bit of frictive resistance to the bow; as the pitches descend, the bow can be moved 'in,' again towards the body's center, a half-inch or so, and the strings' resistance diminishes considerably." — Elisabeth Le Guin, Boccherini's Body: an essay in carnal musicology, ISBN 0520240170, Page 18.

2004 "Commonly we have but a vague apprehension of the body as a whole; two or three centers of friction are about all that we can heed at once. But for physical purposes -- bodily preservation, nourishment, propulsion -- these are all that are necessary. Nature has accommodatingly specialized certain portions of the physical mechanism, the sense-organs, for the sole sake of keeping us in touch with reality at the salient frictive points." — Hartley Burr Alexander, Nature And Human Nature: Essays Metaphysical And Historical, ISBN 1417956615, p. 278.

Talk:dune

Ethymology
Some 400,000 hits are googled for "sand dune." So a dune is not necessarily of sand but any obtuse or thin hill or ridge such as sand dunes. English, French, German, Italian, Romanian, and even Finnish and Korean words strikingly sound similar to one another.

The English/German words, dune/Düne, thin/dünn, dun, down, town, etc. appear to share the same ethymology, which may be akin to Korean dun, dundek, dudeng, duduk "obtuse hill."

Furthermore, the English/German words dike/Deich, dough/Teig, thick/dick, etc. may be akin to Korean duk "dike" as well as Greek teichos "wall."

Meanwhile, the English word town is said to come from OE. tūn "enclosure, village" akin to OHG. zūn "enclosure" and OIr. dūn "fortress." --KYPark 05:48, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

For precedents, see Category:English words with multiple etymologies. As you see, there are a number of different ways to present the differing etymologies, but all use titles. I'm not sure I like this Meaning blah stuff, the definition comes in the part of speech heading. --Wytukaze 20:45, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

 * Well, you're just assuming that "Meaning foo" is a "part of speech heading." Looks more like a "primary definition heading" to me. Wiktionary is not a machine-readable corpus; it's a dictionary, and it's supposed to be read by human beings who need to find information quickly and easily. Obviously "cat's-paw" is a noun; the question presumably is, what does it mean? That's why I chose to put summaries of its meanings in the section headers, rather than meaningless nonsense like "Noun 1" or "First def" or "Furgle barker". --Quuxplusone 22:48, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

User:Uncle G writes, "Please read WT:ELE." Well, I've done that, and I fail to see any justification for this "Etymology 1" stuff. The section on homographs (WT:ELE) currently suggests that each meaning of cat's-paw ought to have its own sub-entry, like this:

English cat's-paw(1) Etymology (from Aesop, etc.) Noun (pawn or dupe, etc.) cat's-paw(2) Etymology (from shape of knot, etc.) Noun (kind of knot, etc.) cat's-paw(3) Etymology (from playfulness of cats) Noun (kind of sea breeze, etc.)

Now, this seems to me like overkill. It's marginally better than "Etymology 1" etc., but surely we can all agree that to put the etymology before the definition is kind of silly in the case of idioms (which is what we're dealing with here). The reader needs to know what the word means before he can understand why it means that.

For example, see Bark, which has three competing "Etymology" sections with no indication of which etymology is supposed to go with which definition(s).

I appreciate that "Uncle G" is trying to standardize formatting here; I just ask that he either provide some evidence that other pages have actually been formatted readably in the new way ("Etymology 1"), or else do this page the way I think is best. ;) --Quuxplusone 22:48, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

Is this still a male given name, or was it only used as a male name in Biblical times? Shouldn't there be a link to Gabrielle? --Connel MacKenzie 21:24, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

There are 2,780 adults with the surname in England and Wales now. In the 1901 English census there were 1,073 people with the given name. SemperBlotto 21:47, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

Certainly this is still a male given name. I have several friends with the name. It may be more common in Romance language cultures. RSvK 23:02, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

 * OK then, thank you both. --Connel MacKenzie 23:49, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

Angel senses
Should the angel senses be combined? Aren't they referring to the same angel, who is merely associated with different things in different Abrahamic faiths? - -sche (discuss) 10:31, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Merged. Compare WT:TR, where the comments implicitly go along with the idea that the Jewish, Christian and Islamic uses of "Gog" are uses of one sense, not 2 or 3. - -sche (discuss) 03:03, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

Text I decided wasn't quite Wiktionary-worthy enough to add to main article:

Other words whose definitions changed over time be be the exact opposite of their original meaning

 * hermetically sealed (from the original myth/parable, this was a seal that held nothing back, least of all water or people.)

There's probably a word for the type of word I was describing in that heading. --Connel MacKenzie 21:43, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

 * Perhaps Category:English contranyms ? Appendix:English contranyms?  Figures that the word contranym already exists.  --Connel MacKenzie 09:21, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
