Talk:maajii-

Reformatted this page, but still needs more
Most all Ojibwe verbs have a preverb and a postverb so saying "derived" is sort of redundant since most all Ojibwe verbs are "derived", depending on the postverb that is attached. Also, most nouns are either derived from the verbs or have the same root as the verbs themselves. For a true derived word, its compounds, participle or diminutives should be listed instead.

CJLippert 19:52, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

I had other comments to the above, but since have retracted. See gichi- and its lay out. CJLippert 17:07, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

RFM discussion: June–August 2020
This entry needs to be split into two separate entries. The original maajii- can remain as a preverb, but what here falls under the Verb headword should be moved to the maad- namespace. I can do the editing and necessary clean-up, but i need help making sure the history isn't lost. SteveGat (talk) 18:07, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

 * A common/easy way to do this is:
 * If most of the content, or the content that was present through most of the entry's history, is going to stay at maajii-, then just copy ("move") whatever content is supposed to be at maad- over to that entry with an edit summary saying that you're copying it from maajii- and "see maajii- for edit history for attribution" or the like.
 * If most of the content should be at maad-, then move the page and copy what needs to be at maajii- back over to maajii-, with the same kind of edit summary as above.

What does "C'est sympa d'avoir penser à moi." mean? Is it correct for penser to be in the infinitive form? Also, I can't work out whether sympa has to agree in the plural, or if it is totally invariable (because sympathiques would shorten to sympa also).

Welcome
Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wiktionary. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
 * Wiktionary Tutorial
 * Community Portal
 * Entry layout explained
 * Criteria for inclusion
 * FAQ
 * How to edit a page
 * How to start a page
 * Wiktionary Sandbox (a safe place for testing syntax)

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk (discussion) and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~, which automatically produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the beer parlour or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome! -- unsigned comment by SemperBlotto at 10:03, 1 December 2005.

Tutorial comment
Hi Kernigh! On 6 Nov 2005, you wrote on a discussion page of the Wiktionary tutorial: "More than one year later, that sentence remains... I am new to Wiktionary, so I think that I will ask someone who knows the rules to fix this tutorial. --Kernigh 21:40, 6 November 2005 (UTC)" My response, which I am copying here, was:
 * No, no, no! One of the founding guidelines of Wikipedia and its sister-projects is "Be bold!" If you see a problem and you know how to fix it, fix it! You just learned how to fix the problem while you were reading the tutorial, so there is no time like the present to use your newly-acquired skills! As a note to Juzeris, I noticed that sentence, too. If I have a free minute later today, I'll fix it. Happy editing! --Cromwellt 17:15, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

However, glancing through your talk page on Wikibooks where you kindly directed me, I noticed that you are already very aware of that maxim. My apologies for telling you something you already know, but at least you know! Oh, and I removed that section of that page on the tutorial, FYI. Happy editing! --Cromwellt 00:07, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

It is okay. Sometimes I know something, but I forget temporarily, and it is nice to have a reminder.

I became interested with wiki after reading MeatBall and Wikipedia account. However, I did not like the MeatballWikiCopyright much; I preferred the GNU Free Documentation License. I did not want to edit Wikipedia though, because I felt that the articles were somewhat complete. Meanwhile, I learned about "neutral point of view" (thanks to Wikipedia:Template:NPOV); I read some talk pages and project pages; when I saw vandalism, I used the "history" tab to read an old version, but I always avoided the "save page" button.

When I saw an obvious place in Wikibooks to add information, I created a Wikibooks account, then clicked the red "Kernigh" and created a simple user page. I used MetaWikipedia:Help:Editing as my guide. When I wanted to edit a page at a different wiki, I created another account, but I was often less bold at other wikis than at Wikibooks. The first wiki "tutorial" I found was Tutorial. At 6 November 2005, I refrained from editing the tutorial.

Now, I am more bold, even with wikis where I am new. At 9 December 2005, I created my thirteenth user page - Wikicities:c:NetHack:User:Kernigh - at an abandoned wiki. --Kernigh 02:29, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

Kanji same as simplified Chinese?
Why is the Japanese kanji the same as the Chinese simplified character? Aren't kanji based on traditional Chinese characters? 69.81.158.11 09:00, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

Can this be explained? 24.93.170.200 02:17, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Yes, the Japanese simplification was based on traditional Chinese characters. Cynewulf 21:14, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Most Simplified characters are based on the handwritten forms that even Traditional users use. In this case, the Traditional and Simplified characters are two separate characters that have the same meaning and pronunciation. The Simplified one is an ideogram of a king within his borders, while the Traditional one show "one language" and a sword with a banner and a drop of blood, signifying the first person, within borders. Simplified simply stopped using the more complex one. The Japanese, on the other hand, borrowed both characters centuries ago, long before there was a Simplified style. In Japanese, the complex character is rarely used. —Stephen 10:06, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

kuni from 郡
"The Oxford Handbook of Chinese Linguistics https://books.google.com.tw/books?isbn=0190266848 William S-Y Wang, Chaofen Sun - 2015 - History Kamei (1954) examined these examples meticulously and rejected Karlgren's claims, except for kuni 郡, kinu 絹, uma 馬, and ume 梅 which he treated as more admissible and probable cases of early borrowings." Jidanni (talk) 17:46, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

 * @Jidanni -- what examples are you talking about? Your comment here is a bit of a non sequitur.  ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 21:30, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Direct link: here
 * , this is what meant: Like uma and ume,  and  might be borrowed from Middle Chinese; possibly kuni by the same shift found in  or . It's possible, but the latter  →  shift is likely unlikely. ～ POKéTalker (Ŧ◉C) 01:37, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

 * @POKéTalker, brilliant, thank you for the link.
 * FWIW, I agree with Kamei that at least the Karlgren examples given at that link strike me as quite unlikely. Apparently Karlgren suggests that JA  came from LTC ?  Baffling hypothesis, in terms of both phonetics and semantics.  Likewise with his JA  or  purportedly coming from .  Comes across as nonsensical -- wild overreaching at best.
 * Meanwhile, I agree with you that the phonetics for JA coming from LTC  are not entirely convincing.  I suppose it's possible it might have come from some other early ZH dialect; compare modern Min Nan reading kìn.  However, KDJ suggests a native JA compound of  +, with  likely cognate with .  That said, I cannot find any other apparent instances of nuno abbreviating to just nu -- but then again, I haven't done more than a quick survey, just now, and there is the reading no, which could conceivably appear as nu in different ages or dialects.
 * Anyway, with regard to this entry, Karlgren's and Kamei's suggested prehistoric (i.e. before we have Japanese writing) borrowing from LTC  could perhaps work phonetically (not sure how to account for voiced /g/ in ZH vs. unvoiced /k/ in JA), and the semantics aren't far off either.  We could include this as a suggested derivation, properly attributed of course.  ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 05:21, 31 March 2018 (UTC)
 * 郡 is now unvoiced in most Chinese now too. (But I am an amateur.) Jidanni (talk) 00:59, 4 May 2018 (UTC)
